Michael MJD recently pulled a Sony Ericsson Xperia Play out of relative obscurity, the 2011 smartphone that tried to blend everyday mobile use with handheld gaming in one sliding package. Announced that February at Mobile World Congress and released in Europe the following spring, with a U.S. Verizon version arriving in May for about two hundred dollars on contract, the device carried the Xperia name rather than any PlayStation branding even though its box noted PlayStation certification.
Kenko Tokina introduced the Pieni III earlier this week, as a toy digital camera small enough to wear on a neck strap during ordinary days. Measuring about 53 by 35 by 18 millimeters and weighing roughly 18 grams without a card, the body sits lightly against clothing or sits on a shelf as decoration when not in use. Four standard finishes cover Soda light blue, Strawberry pink, Milk white, and Black, while separate Sanrio editions featuring Hello Kitty and related characters cost more and arrive with matching straps.
Mercedes-AMG spent 59 years building its reputation on hand-finished engines and aggressive tuning, yet its first full-size SUV developed entirely in Affalterbach arrives with no combustion engine at all. Built on the AMG.EA architecture that also underpins the electric GT 4-Door Coupe, the 2028 GT SUV reaches U.S. dealers in summer 2027 in three versions that share a low, wide stance, a 0.27 drag coefficient, and standard rear-axle steering that can turn the rear wheels up to six degrees.
NASA selected Lunar Outpost for a roughly $220 million task order in May 2026 to build and deliver its Pegasus Lunar Terrain Vehicle by 2028, giving Artemis crews their first dedicated surface transport since the Apollo era. The Colorado company leads the effort with partners that include General Motors for the electric drivetrain and batteries, Goodyear for the wheels, and Leidos for systems work. An earlier, larger Eagle concept from the same team showed what a full-size lunar truck could do, but Pegasus trims the design so it fits tighter mass limits while still carrying two suited astronauts side by side.
Sony WH-CH720N headphones, priced at $88 (was $180), tend to slip past attention in a market full of flashy flagships, yet they quietly cover the basics for anyone after a pair that simply works without demanding a premium outlay. Released a while back as a step up from earlier budget models in the CH line, they sit well below the WH-1000XM series while sharing some of the same processing ideas.
