Bluetooth speakers have a curious problem. The ones worth owning tend to cost real money, and the ones that don’t cost much tend to sound exactly like they cost nothing. IKEA’s KALLSUP sits somewhere outside that tired formula entirely, not because it defies audio physics at $9.99, but because it was never really designed around […]

Scroll through any Gunpla forum, 3D printing subreddit, or miniature painting Discord, and you’ll find the same complaint surfacing like clockwork: detail sanding is the worst part of the hobby. Rotary tools spin too aggressively and melt plastic. Orbital sanders are physically too large to reach the spots that matter. And hand sanding with tiny

While Nothing flits with Glyph Matrixes and Bars, Tecno decided to infuse the soul of Thor into its latest phone concept. Dubbed the Pova Neon, this phone was possibly the most unique thing we’ve seen in the phone market in a while. Built inside the back of a phone is an inert gas chamber that

We definitely live in a world of adventure enthusiasts who demand more from their vans than meets the auto maker’s desire. Which is one of the primary reasons everyone from Volkswagen to Nissan and now Kia is reimagining their designs, so as to carter to the demand more appropriately. Speaking of which, the South Korean

  The ink on Barcelona was barely dry when Nothing pulled everyone back to London. The Phone (4a) had its big MWC moment just days ago, where journalists and the public got their hands on it, took the obligatory photos, and filed their takes. And then Nothing said: actually, we have another one. The Phone

I keep my phone on my nightstand. You probably do too. According to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, about 87% of us do, and I’d bet the other 13% are lying. It’s become such a reflexive part of the bedtime ritual that most of us don’t even question it anymore. The phone is the

IKEA has always had a knack for making you feel clever. You walk into the store needing a bookshelf, and you leave with a bag full of small, inexpensive things you didn’t know existed but now can’t imagine living without. The ANKARLÄGG is exactly that kind of product. It’s a battery-operated LED nightlight shaped like

Dead battery anxiety is real, and for most people, the solution is either a power bank they forgot to charge or a desperate search for an outlet. Flagship phones have been getting faster at charging for years, but none of them have gone back to the one fix that actually solves the problem: a battery

James Bruton’s latest creation stands out even among his many engineering oddities and builds on the kind of inventive spirit that we saw in his earlier two-ball omnidirectional bike. The British engineer turned full-time YouTuber has now built an electric bike that balances on a single giant ball and can move in any direction based

I’ve always believed that the best lighting doesn’t just illuminate a room. It changes the entire mood of a space, the way a good film score changes a scene. And for years, the Melt collection from Tom Dixon has been one of the strongest arguments for that idea. Now, with the Melt Small Portable Light,
