Okay, so everyone's saying it's cute and all, but is there an actual practical use for this, as a grown-ass adult? I mean, sure it's pocketable and all but if you're thinking of portability, that would require your phone/tablet case to have a stand of some sort, which may not be an option (especially if you're commuting). So either this thing has a very niche use case or I'm missing something...

They work as game controllers and are small (but usuable), but a lot of people use these as a shortcut button box for art and other applications. Like A takes out your paint brush and B your eraser

You could use it as a power point clicker etc.
