TechPowerUp - Razer Launches, Uhm, Finger Sleeves, for Touchscreen Control “If you're a mobile gamer, then Razer might have a product for you, especially if you have problems with greasy marks on your screen, or sweaty fingers. Razer's new gaming Finger Sleeves are here to save your mobile device from grease smudges and sweaty fingers, while at the same time promising to improve your gaming, of course. The finger sleeves are made from a "smooth, high-sensitivity fabric" that has conductive silver fibers woven into it to enhance touch sensitivity and response, while reducing friction. Further down on its product page, Razer mentions nylon and spandex, so it looks like the finger sleeves are yoga pants for your fingers. The 0.8 mm breathable material is said to be sweat-absorbent, although it also seems like wearing these finger condoms sleeves would make your fingers hotter and you'd sweat more. You can get the finger sleeves from Razer's shop right now, for a not insignificant US$9.99 a piece or possibly per pair.”    I can think of a lot cheaper solutions. I guess if you’re looking for a gift for a mobile gamer in the family, this might suffice and I'll just leave it at that.

I can see the advantage from not having fingerprint smears on your screen

Just seems kind of silly since a lot of my use of mobile gaming is just killing time waiting. I would never be at the doctors office and pull these out to use. In fact it’s hard to think many people would take the time to put these on in general even for gaming at home.

It really depends from user to user. Some prefer to just kill time while bored or waiting for something, and others are hard core involved in Mobile gaming. Especially when they can't afford or don't want to buy a PC. I personally know a lot of users from India who are like really into PUBG. Its a good market place to get users to sell this product. We'll know soon if this becomes popular it just another average product haha

2021, coming up with solutions to problems that don't exist. At least they're not government mandated (yet).

Honestly after support brushing me off, the CEO becoming a spoiled rotten puke towards me on social media when I questioned him civilly not rude why is it my USB headset is not getting a firmware update to work on older hardware, and why was the blackshark headset one of the most expensive pulled so suddenly and your offering no support on replacement parts, or the defect with the mic? Yeah he got all super nasty. I wont be buying another of their crap products again.
