Designed over a period of 8,660 hours with more than 400,000 bricks, this Lamborghini Sian FKP 37 is the closest thing to the real deal! Earlier last year, Lamborghini and Lego co-created a 1:8 replica of the Sian car… This year, they pushed the limits to build this incredibly realistic beast that looks stunningly like the original and weighs a mind-numbing 2.2 metric tonnes!

This stunningly realistic car was created by a team of 15 people who put over 8000 hours of work into recreating the automotive beauty. The car was built meticulously out of Lego Technik pieces, and barring the wheels and the logo on front, practically the entire vehicle is made solely from LEGO bricks. In fact, even the headlights, taillights, and the light-strips running along the side are LEGO pieces!

This one-of-a-kind project required 154 different types of Lego pieces, including 20 made specifically for the project, Lamborghini mentioned in a press release. Instead of using solid pieces, the car showcases panel-work comprising interlocking hexagonal pieces, paying a hat-tip to Lamborghini’s recurring use of hexagonal patterns and elements in their design language. The result is extremely lifelike, and matches the original Sian’s sizes perfectly, albeit weighing a ridiculous 4,850 pounds. As a tribute to the 1:8th model that kickstarted this journey to begin with, the larger LEGO variant is spray-painted in the same acid-green UV-coated color finish, applied at Lamborghini’s own paint shop.

The interiors are stunningly lifelike too, with every element of the dashboard, seats, and the steering wheel built out of LEGO parts (finally with the Lamborghini logo being inlaid into the wheel). Sadly, the doors don’t open, but the windows give one a glimpse into the incredibly detailed interiors. The car finally rests on real Lamborghini wheels, as used in the original Sian.

The original Sian is touted as Lamborghini’s most powerful production car ever made. It’s also the company’s first hybrid, comprising a naturally-aspirated 6.5-liter V-12 and an electric motor, giving it a total of 807 horsepower, 0-60 mph in 2.8 seconds, and a top speed of over 217 mph.

This isn’t really what I had in mind when I was complaining about how my phone’s battery didn’t last long enough, but I guess Energizer’s product does count as a solution to the smartphone’s battery problem.

This is the Energizer Power Max P18K Pop. I wouldn’t go so far as to call it a smartphone, but it certainly has smartphone-like features. The Energizer Power Max P18K Pop, according to the guys at The Verge, is a massive 18,000 mAh battery with a smartphone attached to it. Measuring at a staggering 18mm thick, the Power Max P18K Pop is the equivalent of 3.5 iPhones making it the phone with the world’s biggest battery.

The Power Max P18K Pop comes with three rear cameras and sports a hidden sliding module with two front-facing cameras, like last year’s Vivo Apex smartphone. This means the Power Max P18K Pop’s 6.2-inch LCD display on the front is uniquely pleasing to look at. It has no notch, and sports minimal bezels… a concept that seems to be slightly defeated when your phone is as thick as a power bank. The phone also sports a MediaTek processor, 6GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, runs Android Pie, and comes with 48 hours of CONTINUOUS usage, courtesy its gargantuan battery. The battery also takes a whopping 8 hours to charge fully, but I doubt you’d ever reach 0% battery unless you actually tried, given the phone could last practically through the week with moderated usage.

The Energizer Power Max P18K Pop launches this summer, and it certainly is the thicc-est phone I’ve ever seen… but I guess there are people out there who like themselves a phone with a big batt-ery. See what I did there?
