Mobile Pixels Introduces Prisma, a 40″ Curved 5K2K Display That Brings the Whole Workstation Together

Sep 27, 2026

Mobile Pixels, the company behind a line of portable and space-saving monitors, today announced the Kickstarter launch (link) of Prisma, a 40″ curved 5K2K display designed to simplify the modern workstation. Prisma is now live on Kickstarter with early-bird pricing for backers.

United States, September 27, 2026 -- Prisma works with MacBooks, Windows laptops, Mac mini, Mac Studio, and desktop PCs. Along with its expansive display, it brings commonly used workstation tools—including docking, USB connectivity, expandable storage, phone charging, two-computer switching, cooling fan, and cable management—into one integrated design.

Compatible with Mac and Windows laptops and desktops, Prisma combines an ultrawide display, docking, storage, connectivity, charging, and cable management in one streamlined setup.

The result is a cleaner, more capable workspace with fewer separate accessories to buy, connect, and manage.

“Prisma started with a simple question: why should building a powerful workstation require so many separate boxes, adapters, and cables?” said Jack Yao, founder and CEO of Mobile Pixels. “We designed Prisma to bring the screen, connectivity, storage, charging, and organization together in one system that works across Mac and Windows.”

At its core, Prisma gives users the width of two monitors without a bezel in between. Its 40″ curved 5K2K (5120 × 1440) LG IPS Black panel displays 1.07 billion colors, covers 99% of DCI-P3, and refreshes at 120Hz. A built-in KVM switch and Picture-by-Picture and Picture-in-Picture support make it easy to work across two computers. Compatible laptops can connect through a streamlined USB-C workflow, while Mac mini, Mac Studio, and desktop PCs connect through Prisma’s standard display and data inputs.

Key features include:

40″ Curved 5K2K Canvas: 5120 × 1440 LG IPS Black panel with 1.07 billion colors, 99% DCI-P3 coverage, and a 120Hz refresh rate
Broad Computer Compatibility: Connect Mac and Windows laptops and desktops through standard display and data connections
Built-In KVM Switch: Run two machines on one keyboard and mouse, with Picture-by-Picture and Picture-in-Picture support
Purpose-Built Mac Integration: An integrated cradle gives Mac Studio and Mac mini a dedicated place within the workstation
USB-C Laptop Connectivity: Compatible laptops can connect to the display and workstation hub while receiving up to 140W pass-through power, pending final specification confirmation
Integrated USB Hub: Built-in USB-C, USB-A, and USB-B ports plus SD and microSD card readers
SSD Expansion Port: Built-in M.2 SSD slot adds storage without an external drive on the desk
Wireless Charging Pad: 15W pad keeps a phone topped off with no extra cable
Smart Adaptive Cooling: Temperature-sensing fan automatically adjusts for a docked Mac Studio or Mac mini
Integrated iPhone Continuity Camera Mount: Holds an iPhone at the top of the display for Center Stage and Desk View on calls, folding away when not in use

Prisma is built for people whose work demands more screen space and fewer interruptions—from developers and designers to creators, architects, entrepreneurs, and anyone tired of managing separate docks, hubs, drives, chargers, and cables.

Prisma is live now on Kickstarter with early-bird pricing for backers. To learn more, view full specifications, or back the project, visit the campaign page at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mobilepixels/prisma-your-whole-workstation-one-display .

London wine club’s Shanghai outpost to offer Chinese drinkers a ‘sweet spot’

London-based private members’ wine club 67 Pall Mall is scheduled to open its first mainland China outpost in December, in Shanghai’s former French Concession. Founder Grant Ashton says the move reflects a global shift away from spirits – which can reach 40 per cent alcohol by volume (ABV) – towards wine, typically 12 to 14 per cent ABV. “Wine is halfway down to zero,” he says, mapping out the spectrum from spirits to non-alcoholic drinks. “If you’re starting from spirits, wine is your sweet...

‘Red Crown’ challenges beauty queen stereotypes through satire, suspense

Beauty queens are often expected to appear flawless, deliver polished answers and maintain a perfect image, but GMA Pictures’ upcoming film “Red Crown” aims to reveal the imperfections, personal struggles and humanity behind the glamour of pageantry. Featuring real-life beauty queens, actresses and digital personalities, the satirical thriller explores a fictional competition in which 25 women vie for a P25 million prize, with the stakes extending beyond the usual fight for a crown. During the film’s recent media conference, the cast discussed how the project challenges stereotypes about beauty queens, examines the pressures of competition, and highlights the importance of authenticity and sisterhood. Miss Universe Philippines 2013 Ara Arida, who is among the real-life beauty queens in the ensemble, said the film seeks to remind audiences that women in pageantry experience the same emotions and make mistakes like everyone else. “Beauty queens are humans as well. We’ve been stereotyped that this is how we look, this is how we act but in reality, we can feel sad and be funny as well. We make mistakes but what’s important is we know how to handle it, and we know how to stand up after every mistake,” Arida said. Miss Chinatown Philippines 2025 Yza Thalia Uy, who plays beauty influencer Faith Villacorta, said her character also challenges the expectation that women must always present a carefully curated image of themselves. As an influencer, her character is associated with finding the perfect angle, lighting, opportunity, content and appearance. Uy said the film questions the pressure to meet those standards. “For me, being a true queen or a true woman is all about how you genuinely connect with the people around you. And the first person you’d like to connect with is yourself,” Uy said. Her sister, Supermodel Universe 2025 International Grand titleholder Yna Angela Uy, also emphasized that pageantry should be about more than physical appearance and confidence. “It’s not just about the beauty or its facade, but what’s more important is our heart, our truest self,” she said. Beyond the fight for the crown Miss Universe Philippines 2023 Michelle Marquez Dee described “Red Crown” as an exaggerated take on the world of beauty pageants, using satire to magnify the pressures and power dynamics that can exist behind the scenes. “Red Crown is when you take a beauty pageant to the extreme,” Dee said. She pointed to a scene involving a puppet as an example of how pageant directors can influence contestants behind the scenes. “Usually in the pageants that we love, we’re fighting for one crown. But this time, we’re fighting for our lives,” Dee said. She also recalled a conversation with co-star Miss Universe Philippines 2025 Ahtisa Manalo, who described the characters as satirical exaggerations of themselves. The film’s premise pushes the familiar rivalry among contestants into more dangerous territory, combining the spectacle of pageantry with suspense and comedy. Director Dominic Zapata said bringing together a large ensemble of performers from different backgrounds was a significant undertaking, but the story offered an opportunity to deliver a broader social message. “It’s kind of a social statement. This film uses the suspense-thriller genre,” Zapata said. Ruffa Gutierrez, who plays the national director of the fictional pageant, said the film brings together two industries that have shaped her career. “The showbiz industry taught me how to tell a story, and pageantry taught me how to own the stage,” she said. Gutierrez described the film as campy and exciting, with elements of horror and suspense. She also expressed hope that her first collaboration with GMA Pictures would lead to more projects. Competition, sisterhood While “Red Crown” dramatizes the rivalry among contestants, its cast members also used the media conference to discuss what healthy competition should look like in an industry where women are frequently compared with one another. Sanya Lopez said competitiveness does not have to come at the expense of kindness and respect. “You can still win, you still want to win, but there should be goodness in your heart. Just be nice, be respectful, and it’s a healthy competition when you inspire other women,” Lopez said. She encouraged women to help one another gain confidence rather than treating fellow contestants solely as rivals. Faith Da Silva echoed the sentiment, emphasizing that another person’s achievements should not diminish one’s own accomplishments. “Healthy competition means you shouldn’t compare yourself with other people. The success of other people doesn’t take away your own,” she said, adding that everyone has different strengths, weaknesses, personalities and backgrounds. Shuvee Etrata said women should make room for one another to succeed instead of viewing opportunities as limited to a single person. “You lift each other up, you respect each other, and I believe there’s always room for another woman to shine,” she said. Ashley Ortega, who competed against other athletes as a figure skater, said strong competitors motivated her to improve rather than undermine those around her. “In a competition, there should always be growth, respect and sisterhood. If there’s comparison or jealousy, I feel like you have lost the competition already,” Ortega said. She added that learning to accept defeat was an important part of her own experience, allowing her to move forward instead of abandoning her ambitions. Directed by Dominic Zapata and written by Kit Villanueva and Ken de Leon, “Red Crown” is scheduled to open in Philippine cinemas on Oct. 28.

How to catch your breath

When life feels too fast, your body and mind are asking for a reset. You don’t need an hour-long retreat. Sometimes, all you need is a moment. You can use these techniques anywhere, even in the middle of a busy day. Box breathing: Inhale through your nose for four seconds. Hold for four seconds, exhale through your mouth for four seconds, then hold your breath for another four seconds. Repeat four times. This helps slow your heart rate and signals to your nervous system that you are safe. Drop and Release: Unclench your jaw, lower your shoulders and open your hands. We often hold stress in our bodies without even realizing it. Water and grounding: Take one slow sip of water. Then name three things you can see, two things you can hear and one thing you can feel. This exercise draws you out of your thoughts and brings you back to the present. Calm the mental noise Brain Dump: Write down everything swirling in your head. Getting it out of your mind and onto paper makes it feel smaller. The “not now” list: You can’t do everything today. Choose three things that truly matter and allow the rest to wait. Step away from screens: Scrolling isn’t rest. Staring out a window, listening to one song or sitting in silence can give your brain the space it needs. Your body often gives you signals before you reach the point of exhaustion. Learn to recognize them instead of pushing through. Listen to your body: Pay attention to headaches, a tight chest, trouble sleeping, sudden fatigue or feeling wired but exhausted. These can be signs that your system is overloaded. Listen to your emotions: Irritability over small things, crying out of nowhere, feeling numb or anxiety that won’t shut off are signals worth noticing. If you’re snapping at people you love, that’s a red flag. Listen to your thinking: You can’t focus. You keep replaying the same worry. Every decision feels impossible. You find yourself catastrophizing or going blank. The effects may also show on your face: a sallow complexion, dark circles under your eyes, that unmistakably sleepy look and brain fog. How to pause well Name it: Say, “I’m overwhelmed and I need a break.” Saying it out loud gives you permission. Take 10 minutes, not 10 days: Go for a short walk, take a bathroom break or sit in your car in silence. Don’t fill it: No phone, no emails. Real pause means space. Breathe, pray, or just sit. Protect it: It’s okay to say “I’ll get back to you after I take 10.” Boundaries are not selfish. They are life-savers. Remember, pausing isn’t quitting. It’s maintenance. You can’t pour from an empty cup, and you can’t lead, love or work well when you’re running on fumes. Rest is an integral part of the work. Affirmation: “I will overcome.” Love and light.
