I use it for both travel and as a small dock to keep on my desk to stream Switch games. It is ideal for both purposes. Switching between TV and handheld modes is great for travel - you can use it on a plane to hold the switch instead of a sketchy stand, and then use a professional controller for maximum convenience. Easy to connect in a hotel or desktop, takes up little space. The plastic case can be a bit subpar, but it works for the price and features.
