Did not know something like this existed - it's definitely expensive and i am a bit skeptical of the actual need.
Packaging/appearance
Comes with a nice, protective and sturdy plastic case.
It comes is a nice box, includes a plastic storage case, a cleaning towelette.
Competitiveness
Comparing it to other options, the tailored fit for gopro hero 11 sets it apart.
It attaches just like you'd expect and its effect is extremely similar to gopro's wide angle attachment called the "max lens mod.
Otherwise would get the gopro brand lens.

I swapped between this and the max lens mod without the special mode so the lens projects onto a visible circular image on the sensor and it seemed to produce the same image between the two lenses
