For me, the first-generation Pixel is one such piece. GRID Studios, the company that breaks down old tech and turns it into elegant wall art, is now celebrating Google\u2019s classic phone with its newest frame.<\/p>\n<div class=\"review-card-body-inline\">\n<div class=\"text\">\n<div class=\"pros\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Heres_What_We_Like\"><\/span>Here&#8217;s What We Like<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Well put together and clean<\/li>\n<li>An elegant way to display older tech<\/li>\n<li>Keeps devices out of landfills<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cons\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"And_What_We_Dont\"><\/span>And What We Don&#8217;t<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>May be too pricey for some<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>If you\u2019re not familiar with GRID, it\u2019s a company that takes older, typically iconic tech\u2014like the iPhone, the first-gen <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">App<\/a>le Watch, and even the PSP\u2014and turns it into wall art. Each piece is carefully deconstructed, laid on a matte with each component labeled, and placed into a shadowbox. It\u2019s a gorgeous way to pay tribute to some of your favorite tech.<\/p>\n<p>The newest member of the GRID Frame family is the Google Pixel 1. The company sent me the frame before today\u2019s official release, and I\u2019ve been endlessly staring at it for the past week. For $229, it\u2019s one of the coolest pieces of tech-related art you can buy right now.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Practical_Art_That_Starts_Conversations\"><\/span>Practical Art That Starts Conversations<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If I had to tell you one thing about the Pixel 1 GRID Frame (or any of the frames, I suppose): it\u2019s that it will get reactions from people. My teenage daughter\u2014who only pays attention to things that teenage daughters often do\u2014walked into my office, noticed the Pixel 1 frame, and commented on how cool it is.<\/p>\n<p>If that\u2019s not a glowing review in itself, I don\u2019t really know what is.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-94120 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2021\/08\/deddf7e7.jpg\" alt=\"A close up of the Pixel 1 details, including release date and Android versions\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-credittext=\"Cameron Summerson\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Little details like this are a nice touch. <span class=\"imagecredit\">Cameron Summerson<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But it\u2019s not just about <i>what<\/i> it is\u2014it\u2019s also about how well laid out it is. The whole layout here is captivating, like something you\u2019d see in a museum. Each of the main components in the Pixel 1 is laid out in a way that makes sense, with the screen on one side and the back on the other, and all the innards in the middle. The battery and mainboard are centered, with all the other components exploded out from there.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of exploding, let\u2019s talk about that battery for a second. Because it\u2019s fake. GRID is clearly about the details here\u2014you don\u2019t make a product like this without attention to detail\u2014and the possibility of the battery being an issue didn\u2019t go unnoticed. That\u2019s why GRID uses fake batteries that look identical to the real deal. I thought that was a cool little tidbit.<\/p>\n<p>Otherwise, these are all real components from a real phone. It makes sense, especially when you look at the price.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-94121 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2021\/08\/75813ff9.jpg\" alt=\"The battery in the Pixel 1 GRID Frame\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-credittext=\"Cameron Summerson\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The battery? Fake. So smart. <span class=\"imagecredit\">Cameron Summerson<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>At $229, the GRID Pixel 1 frame isn\u2019t cheap. But even broken phones cost money, and when you factor in the time spent manually disassembling the phone <i>and<\/i> putting the pieces down, it\u2019s easy to understand why. And ultimately, I find the quality of the product is worth every penny. It\u2019s a fantastic-looking bit of art.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Out_of_the_Landfill_and_Onto_Your_Wall\"><\/span>Out of the Landfill and Onto Your Wall<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-94124\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/p\/uploads\/2021\/08\/6ae5cedf.jpg\" alt=\"A detailed look at the Pixel 1 GRID Frame\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Cameron Summerson<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>There\u2019s also another benefit to the GRID frame: it keeps old tech out of landfills. Every device that ends up in a frame doesn\u2019t end up in a trash bin somewhere, and that\u2019s a win-win. You get cool art for your wall <i>and<\/i> give these icon gadgets a new life outside the trash heap. I dig.<\/p>\n<p>Today, GRID is releasing just 50 of these Pixel 1 frames. They\u2019re $229, and once they\u2019re gone, it\u2019s hard to say when they\u2019ll be back in stock.
