pocket arpeggiation joy!
MIDI controller keyboards can be pretty hard to love, but I'm really liking this Korg nanoKey Fold. First, and most importantly, it's orange and looks like anime tech. It's not going to be suitable for real pianists (careful how you say that word) but since I actually like the keys on a OP-1, it's fine as a note input device for me.
Biggest revelation about this thing is the arpeggiator: it's really good, inspiring and playable. I'd actually been looking for a compact and usable standalone arpeg for a while, and I was somewhat surprised to find that this ticks so many of my boxes.
Did I mention that it's orange.

My expectations weren't met.
The main reason to want this portable keyboard is that it has a MIDI out connections, where most mini-keyboards only have MIDI over USB. That means you can connect it directly to a small synth, rather than having to go via a USB-host.
But, on arrival, I was truly disappointed by the poor build quality. I was hoping for something comparable to the NanoKeys, but it's not. I returned it.
