Sustainable smartphone accessories brand Atom Studios, has announced Best Buy, America’s largest retailer in the consumer electronics industry, as its latest partner in the US.
Atom Studios specialises in creating stylish tech accessories — including phone and AirPods Pro cases, charging accessories and screen protectors — with innovative design details, that are built to last and have minimal impact on the planet.
Best Buy will initially be stocking two different iPhone case ranges from Atom Studios on their website — Split Wood Fibre and Split Silicone for the iPhone 13 range — with an expanded range available in store soon.
Just over a year after launching the product to market, the brand already boasts an impressive portfolio of stockists around the world including: telecom giant Three in the UK; premium retailer Telenor in Europe; one of Japan’s largest wireless carriers, SoftBank; iStudio and .Life in Thailand and Buy First in Taiwan.
Atom Studios was formed during the pandemic by a small group of industry experts, who developed friendships over the years through shared experience in the consumer electronics and accessories industry. With previous employers including ZAGG, Bang and Olufsen, Nokia and Panasonic, they drew upon a wealth of innovation, product development, marketing and sales knowledge.
Akbar Ali, Creative Director at Atom Studios, believes the key to the business’s success so far is in part due to the extensive research the team dedicates to product development.
“We’re so much more than just another tech accessory brand,” says Mr. Ali, “our design philosophy, inspired by our previous experience at some of the world’s largest tech companies, not only centres around addressing everyday consumer issues such as ‘my charging cable keeps getting tangled’, we also use or develop materials that ensure our products are as eco-friendly as possible while still looking stylish. This is a natural evolution for the industry, innovative accessories that solve problems, look great and have minimal impact on the environment – and this should be affordable to consumers.”
The iPhone case ranges Best Buy will be stocking stand testament to the level of detail that goes into Atom Studios’ product development process; the Split Wood Fibre model uses a combination of recycled wood and cornstarch-based ingredients – a material specially designed by the product team and a completely unique and sustainable alternative to plastic in phone cases – while the Split Silicone model features infinitely recycled anodized aluminium and sand-based silicone.
In addition to their eco credentials, both the Split Wood Fibre and Split Silicone cases address a common user complaint with MagSafe compatible cases; they contain 50% larger magnets than industry standard, without adding bulk, which offers improved connection for a more stable charging experience and for attaching MagSafe accessories.

Atom Studios’ marketing director, Alison Cook, also explains that their strategic approach to growth is another factor contributing to their rapid, yet managed acceleration.
“Launching during the pandemic was always going to present challenges with product development delays, retail closures and reluctance from retailers to place orders for new products due to overstock,” says Miss. Cook , “we decided to adopt a more strategic approach purposefully choosing one well respected, leading retailer in each region, then making sure that we deliver with excellence via on-time high quality products, comprehensive marketing plans, merchandising support and robust staff training.
“We’re extremely proud to offer our cases in Best Buy, it demonstrates there is strong appetite across the globe to shop sustainably and responsibly, with more consumers than ever showing an interest in how their products are made and where they’re from.”
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky addressed Europe’s top tech entrepreneurs, investors and corporate leaders via 3D hologram today, compelling the region’s most influential innovators to donate financial and technological resources to begin rebuilding Ukraine. At 4.20pm today, President Zelensky addressed seven tech events across Europe, including Dublin Tech Summit at the RDS.
Even amidst the devastation of war, Zelensky said Ukraine continues to develop and pledged to make digital transformation central to his nation’s rebuild.
“Our goal is to make Ukraine the freest digital state in the world,” he said, touching on some of the technologies his government plans to champion as it rolls out a digitally driven rebuild via the United24 platform.
“Ukraine is a chance for a global digital revolution,” he said; “a chance for every technology company and a chance for every visionary to show their value, skills, technologies and ambitions.”
ARHT Media’s holographic technology enabled the President to appear on stage simultaneously at four of Europe’s largest tech festivals: Stockholm’s Brilliant Minds, London’s Founders Forum, Amsterdam’s The Next Web and Paris’ Vivatech.
His holographic telepresence, produced by Talesmith, was also live-streamed to Dublin Tech Summit, The AI Summit at London Tech Week and SuperReturn Berlin, expanding the reach of his address to 200,000 leaders across every vertical of the tech industry.
Evercoast’s portable volumetric video system captured the address in 3D for a mobile augmented reality experience, available through the below QR codes:
A range of public figures including Gayle King, Nile Rogers, Peter Gabriel, Bernard Henri-Lévy, Amanda Holden, Ozwald Boateng, and UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson also appeared on stage in hologram and video formats, lending messages of support to the people of Ukraine before introducing Zelensky’s hologram. Ukrainian tech founders, Irra Ariella Khi and Dima Shvets also shared heart-felt messages on stage.
Brent Hoberman, Founders Forum Group’s Co-Founder and Executive Chairman said the FF Group joined forces with Europe’s leading tech events and partnered with ARHT and Evercoast to amplify the reach of President Zelensky’s crucial rebuild message.
“We wanted to enable the President to share this important message via hologram and 3D avatar to exemplify the world-changing innovation the tech community is capable of delivering, and to inspire our network to develop and deploy new technologies that can help rebuild Ukraine.”
Evercoast’s volumetric capture hardware used for the project is being donated to the Ukrainian government, to enable continued communications in extended reality formats. ARHT is also donating the updated equipment used for the hologram capture to The Junior Academy of Science Ukraine, located in Kyiv. The production was made on location in Kyiv and at Garden Studios in London.
The project was created by Martin Williams (Talesmith) and Thomas Hoegh (Garden Studios), directed by Martin Williams, and produced by Mark Wright (Talesmith) and Thomas Hoegh.

Because the course of a day can change with one email, text or spark of spontaneity, the XPS 13 (available with Windows 11 or Ubuntu 20.04) has been designed by Dell to be the ultimate on-the-go companion. Artfully thin, light and compact with up to 12 hours of long battery life, it slips seamlessly into a backpack, bag or purse, while still delivering the premium performance with 12th Gen Intel® Core™ processors to multitask with ease.
True to the XPS aesthetic, it features our fifth generation, 4-side InfinityEdge display and enhanced sound for an immersive entertainment experience whether streaming music, video-chatting friends or watching the latest blockbuster. High brightness, improved clarity, precise detail with up to 4K+ resolution, and vivid colour bring the content to life, while larger speakers enable louder sound, deeper bass and a better overall audio experience. Eyesafe® technology intelligently manages light energy at the source, reducing harmful blue light without compromising the visual experience.
Dell XPS 13
Expertly crafted from premium materials, the XPS 13 delivers an inclusive approach to expressive colour, with unified tones inside and out that embody our mindful, minimalist approach. Available in softened shades of Sky and Umber, the tinted CNC machined aluminium is curated and premium.
With the new XPS 13, Dell set out on a long and ambitious journey to “miniaturize” the motherboard to be 1.8x smaller than the one found in our previous XPS 13 (2021). In fact, it’s the smallest motherboard ever created and fitted for a Dell PC. This created the architectural space needed to pack in a tapestry of new technologies and enlarge the speaker enclosures. The result is an XPS 13 that is thinner and lighter, yet better sounding, high performing and long lasting.
Taking versatility to new heights, the XPS 13 2-in-1 is launching this Summer
As the lines continue to blur between work, life and learning, the XPS 13 2-in-1 reflects just that. This XPS device provides the ultimate flexibility allowing users to effortlessly transition between streaming, working creating and sharing content, and connecting.
This is the first XPS device to offer 5G connectivity, which enables faster downloads, like WiFi speeds, but for mobile broadband. Streaming, downloading files, rich video content – it all happens a lot faster with the speed of 5G, so users can be productive and entertained no matter the location. The new XPS 13 2-in-1 also features eSIM technology, which allows users to go to different countries and connect to global carriers without having to switch SIM cards.
The XPS 13 2-in-1 allows for a fluid transition from consumption to full productivity mode by attaching the magnetic XPS Folio, providing a complete laptop experience that supports three angle adjustments (100°, 112.5°, 125°) for flexibility and comfort. The natural writing and inking experience of the XPS Stylus will allow users to express their creativity, turning the device into a state-of-the-art sketchpad.
Designed around an intuitive, landscape-first viewing mode – because that’s how we see the world – the stunning display panel delivers high brightness and precise detail with up to 3K resolution and vivid colour. The high-resolution 1080p front-facing webcam offers a crisp and clear image and is placed horizontally for practical and productive video calls.
The XPS 13 2-in-1 offers two connectivity options, standard WiFi 6E or 5G with WiFi 6E, each featuring a sleek, minimalist design. The standard WiFi 6E model is constructed of machined aluminium, just like the XPS 13 and is available in the subtle blue Sky colour. Unique to the 5G model, the back is made from Gorilla Glass 7 to optimize connectivity and eliminate signal interference. It’s available in a darker Slate hue.
Pricing and availability
XPS 13 is now available in Ireland, starting at €1,339.00.
XPS 13 2-in-1 will be available later this Summer.
