From Revamped 90s Phones to Bezel-Less Smartphones

In the same way that many 90s styles have made a comeback in the world of fashion, many of the top March 2018 mobile ideas reflect a consumer desire to reconnect to this period in the past. Although some phone styles quickly became obsolete in their time, a number of smartphone manufacturers are now reviving popular styles with updated technology. Some of the best examples of this come from Nokia, including its affordable new Nokia 3310, which takes the form of a button phone, as well as the Nokia 8110, also known as the "banana phone" that was popularized by The Matrix films. While many technology brands are in the process of pulling inspiration from nostalgic designs of the past, a number of other companies are looking forward by introducing four-camera smartphones and other innovations that enable the average consumer to capture professional-quality content.

The Chromat Fall 2018 Showcases Models of All Shapes, Sizes & Color It is a difficult task to produce a well-structured and all-inclusive body-positive fashion show, but for Chromat's designer Becca McCharen-Tran, that has never been an issue. For the Ready-to-Wear Fall 2018 collection, the fashion house sets the spotlight on bold colors, revealing silhouettes, quirky sunglasses, expressive make-up and models that vastly vary in build and ethnicity — "a million different kinds of allure, [...] flaunting a life-affirming body confidence."

Compact Photography Lights

The LitraPro is the First Full-Spectrum Compact Light External lighting for photography can often be cumbersome and clunky but the LitraPro offers up the first full-spectrum compact light. Designed as the best professional adventure light, the LitraPro combines incredibly compact size with studio-quality lighting. Several LEDs mounted on the light allow for 3000k-6000k color temperature adjustment while also providing flicker-free capabilities at all shutter speeds.  The impressive specifications of the full-spectrum compact light are further bolstered by a rugged design that keeps the device safe from whatever may come. The exterior body of the LitraPro is constructed entirely of ultra-rugged aluminum. This allows the full-spectrum compact light to be impact-resistant, as well as waterproof down to 30 meters.  The compact light LitraPro is also Bluetooth-compatible for video and photo.

Luxury Camera-Branded Timepieces

The Leica L1 and L2 Were Created by Leica Engineers and Designers Leica, the German camera company, designs both powerful and beautiful cameras, but the Leica L1 and L2 show that the brand isn't scared of venturing into new territory. The L1 and L2 are two new timepieces engineered and designed by Leica, and they combine German precision with an attractive minimalist aesthetic. There are plenty of luxury brands -- Leica included -- that will simply license their logo and brand identity to off-the-shelf products, but the Leica L1 and L2 watches certainly don't fall into that category. The watches were designed in-house by one of Leica's frequent contributors, and the internal mechanisms were engineered by a local German company called Lehmann Prazision that makes its own high-precision machinery used in some of Europe's finest watches.
