a phone carved from solid gold

Outlier object twistB2
Cutter touching the gold phone corner, chips fly away from him, one clean hand, higher face match.

sand becomes a phone

Channel winners remixB2
QA fix round: closer crop so hands fill each panel; dry pale beach sand (not sugar); middle panel is a clear glass phone slab with sand fusing in, not a sandy phone; version 1 palms through the glass looked warped.

molten metal filling a phone mould

Outlier object twistB2
QA fix round: empty steel phone-shaped hollow (camera step with empty holes, no glass); both hands on the tongs with elbows bent near his body; warm orange spill on his gloves and the near side of his face; version 2 arm ran off the edge.

phone battery bursting into flame

Desire / stakes firstB2
QA fix round: yellow press and fixture on a saturated blue wall (no gray on gray), a real thin nail, flame lights his face, palm and tee orange, both eyes on the flame; version 2 under the face match floor.

robot arm building phones

Desire / stakes firstB2
QA fix round: checkered race flag between him and the robot; rack phones read as phones (front camera pill, silver frames, buttons); both eyes on the robot; version 2 under the face match floor.

steel ball above a phone screen

Outlier composition firstB2
QA fix round: the ball now falls free with clear air under the drop tube (no glass rod, no pin on the ball); version 1 kept a pin on top of the ball.

diamond tip on a phone screen

Outlier object twistB2
Diamond point glints on the glass at contact, natural pinch grip, higher face match than version 2.

a giant factory full of phones

Desire / stakes firstB2
QA fix round: high view from a mezzanine over a dozen lines carrying thousands of lit phones under robot arms, jaw-drop with both eyes on the floor; no price text (card text cleared); version 1 under the face match floor.

phone falling mid-air

Desire / stakes firstB2
Phone tumbling off the belt above his open hand; version 2 hand has six digits.

drawer full of glowing phones

Video momentB2
Drawer of 30 lit phones yanked open, hallway of glowing cabinets; version 2 has garbled display text. QA fix: the "20,000" overlay is cleared from the card, so the final carries no text.

Close eye-level shot at a white workbench in a bright white factory: a bare green phone circuit board sits in a small steel clamp while a laser nozzle above fires one thin pink-white beam onto a chip, a bright spark and a wisp of smoke at the contact point, a finger-width from Hafu's gloved fingertip steadying the clamp. Board, nozzle and spark fill the left half; Hafu in a white cleanroom coat and hairnet leans in on the right.	laser spark on a circuit board	The precision tool that builds every phone fires right next to his own finger. A laser spark next to a fingertip is instant danger, and it shows the high tech hidden inside his own phone.

Table-height shot: a polished steel robot finger on a black test rig swipes up on a phone standing in a clamp, the screen showing a vertical short-video feed with heart and comment icons; Hafu leans in on the right holding his own phone the same way, thumb mid-swipe, staring at the robot in disbelief. Rig and phone fill the left half, bright white lab behind.	robot finger scrolling a phone	A factory robot whose whole job is doing what the viewer does all day.

Bright lab.	foldable phone mid-fold in a machine	A machine does a lifetime of folds in one afternoon; the number is what the picture cannot show.

High-angle shot over a white table covered edge to edge with every part of one phone laid out in a neat grid (glass screen, metal frame, battery, three camera modules, circuit board, speakers, rows of tiny screws and chips); Hafu leans in from the top right pressing the last part, the battery, into the empty frame at the centre, eyes on camera.	a whole table of phone parts	The whole table is one phone; the count of parts is the number the picture cannot show. Teardown grids are a proven curiosity image, and 1,900 parts in a pocket object is a real wow.

Mould and pour fill the left two thirds; his face on the right.	molten metal filling a phone mould	The proven molten-pour-on-a-phone shot, but the metal is making the phone instead of melting it.
