The phone grew a moving part.
Honor put a four-axis titanium gimbal on the back of a phone and shipped it at RMB 9,999. For a studio that maintains hardware in public spaces, the interesting number is not the megapixels. It is the duty cycle of a motor in something people drop.

Colour got cheap, the install did not.
Micro RGB started life as a single 115-inch halo product at $29,999. The 2026 lineup runs from 55 inches at $1,599.99, with a 100-inch still to come. For anyone specifying screens into a physical space, that changes which line on the quote is actually the expensive one.

Printed OLED leaves the lab.
Lenovo shipped the first laptop with an inkjet-printed OLED panel this week. The screen is not the story. The manufacturing method is, because printing panels instead of evaporating them is what finally moves large OLED into the price bracket where we can specify it.

The Steam Machine is a fixed target.
Valve shipped a small SteamOS box on 30 June and everyone read it as a console. For a studio that keeps installations alive for years, the interesting thing is that it is a fixed, repeatable target you can buy off the shelf.

Edge installations: when on-prem is a feature, not a compromise.
Some systems belong on the edge. The cloud-first reflex is wrong more often than the industry will admit. Here is the framework we use to decide, the hardware we deploy, and the conversation we always have with clients before specifying.

When the Christmas tree pings an API.
Westfield needed Santa during a Covid Christmas. We built a WebRTC video-call platform — and let kids pick the tree lights live with an Arduino on the other end. Here is the technical walk-through, the production challenges, and the lessons we still apply to every hardware brief.

USB-C on the iPad Pro. Finally.
Apple just put a real port on the iPad. After eight years of dongles and proprietary connectors, the implications are bigger than the announcement suggested — particularly for studios shipping installation work where the iPad has been quietly the most-used screen in the box.
