Titanium unibody smartphone with sub-millimeter internal component layout
A titanium unibody smartphone engineered with internal vapor-chamber cooling, triple camera housing, and zero-bezel acoustic sound.
Mass-market smartphones suffer from fragile glass backplates, delicate seams, and thermal throttling under intensive compute loads.
AETHER / ONE is an engineered smartphone sculpted from a solid billet of Grade 5 titanium, routing heat outward through an engineered perimeter micro-radiator channel while protecting internal battery cells with an integrated carbon-shield rib.
Began with physical hand feel ergonomics, developing continuous G3 curvature across all edge transitions to eliminate tactile pressure hotspots during prolonged single-handed usage.
G2/G3 Curvature
1.5° Minimum
Zero Visual Seam
Modeled in SolidWorks with strict parametric feature trees. Wall thicknesses maintained at 0.85 mm with localized rib reinforcements to resist 1500 N torsional bending loads.
Integrated dual thermal vapor chambers with micro-capillary wick structures, dissipating 14W TDP through the perimeter titanium bezel without hotspots exceeding 38°C.
