That was cute.

I usually find "unboxings" kind of creepy. I like gadgets too, but fetishizing the boxes they come in is weird.

Nah, it's a way of living vicariously. If you can't get the item yourself, at least you can see what it's like.

This is a well-targeted advertisement. Too bad they couldn't find some real use for such a box, e.g. A handy dock station for the phone.

I'm just linking this for the first few minutes of the video (the rest is a pretty standard unboxing with a few little surprises).
