Retro Handhelds reports that the Wallet uses an 8.01-inch OLED with a 2,480 x 1,860 resolution. (That’s a 4:3 aspect ratio when unfolded.)

Call it the Sopranos effect: Over the last two decades, more tonally depressing crime shows have hit our screens than I care to count, despite the fact that the HBO mob series that spawned them all was nothing if not funny and sartorially inventive. And worse, beyond being grimmer than they need to be, these knockoff shows are frequently too visually dark for their own good. As a great tweet once put it: Men of LA, stop becoming influencers! We need gaffers!Maybe that’s why Hulu’s Deli Boys thrilled me so much this year. The show, about a pair of spoiled…

That folding OLED screen has a resolution of 2480 x 1860 pixels, and…

This was supposed to be the year that climate tech died. President Donald Trump and the Republican Party have done their best to dismantle the Biden administration’s hallmark industrial and climate policies. Even the European Union has begun to ease off its most aggressive goals. And yet, as the year closes, the receipts provide a different view of climate and clean energy investing in the U.S. and Europe. Instead of tanking, venture bets in the sector remained essentially flat relative to 2024, according to CTVC, far from the slide some had expected. That resiliency is due in part to continued…
