Years of smartphone presentations treated screen-to-body ratio like a scoreboard. Smaller black borders meant progress. Xiaomi chased the idea with the Mi Mix series. Samsung briefly tried waterfall curves that bent the glass over the sides. One extreme concept even wrapped the display around the back so the number could climb past 100 percent. Those experiments eventually settled down. Curved edges brought reflections, weaker durability, and accidental touches. Premium phones today sit at roughly one to two millimeters of border all the way around. Some people still call those borders unacceptable. Most of them were never going to buy the phone in the first place.

Aston Martin has officially introduced the Valen, a new limited-edition coupe that the company claims is the world’s most powerful front-engine production vehicle. The Valen is based on the current Vanquish chassis and was designed by the Q special vehicles team in collaboration with the Special Vehicle Operations department. It takes the classic long-hood, short-deck layout and makes every essential system work harder. Only 150 will be constructed, with the first vehicles expected to arrive in the second quarter of 2027. The base price is approximately two million dollars before options.

Lone Wastelander sat down with Fallout 4 and refused to look at it as Bethesda intended. By placing the camera in a hard isometric position, disabling depth perception, and forcing the engine to show everything in full detail regardless of distance, the Commonwealth resembled something out of 1997. Locations that were previously sprawled out in first person are now displayed on the screen like finely built tabletop dioramas, with every rusted automobile, collapsed house, and wandering settler visible at once.

Caviar decided not to wait for Apple. While the rest of the industry still debates whether a foldable iPhone will even arrive this year, the luxury customizer has already built a small collection of finished designs around a device it calls the iPhone Ultra. The newest additions lean hard into precious metal and rare leather, and one of them turns the entire back into a piece of polished silver that looks like it is still flowing.

Keys vanish between couch cushions, a wallet falls out of a jacket pocket at the coffee shop, or luggage goes into the black hole of an airport carousel. For anyone who has spent twenty minutes hunting through the same three rooms, the second-generation Apple AirTag four-pack, priced at $79.99 (was $99), provides a practical and effective solution.
