Great! The reason I bought a Yubikey Neo over the Yubikey 4 is that I need access to the key on all my devices - computers and my phone(s). It's a way to do secure and user-friendly way to solve the key distribution problem to have access to your TOTP tokens, FIDO credentials and/or your PGP keys on all your stuff. I would not use PGP otherwise, as it leaves key distribution as an exercise to the user [2].
Since USB-C is going to be the standard on computers, phones and tablets this new product will be very versatile and usable secure authentication across almost all devices [1]. Only question is - do apps like Yubico Authenticator and OpenKeyChain support this on Android already?
[1]: You're out of luck on iDevices of course, but you're out of luck with iDevices and Yubikey already.
[2]: This was much less of a problem for the first ~15 years of PGP's existence of course, but it feels old-fashioned nowadays.
