Changes: the AirPods photo was converted from its embedded Display P3 profile to sRGB; the untagged watch photo was treated as sRGB. Source backgrounds were removed, including the background visible through the watch buckle and strap holes. Products were resized proportionally and positioned; the watch was rotated 8 degrees within the image plane. Separate contact shadows were added. The real product photos were combined with an AI-generated wooden entryway table, tray, keys and fabric tote. Social versions add Inter text. The watch strap stays extended, and the two earbuds remain outside the closed case. The product shapes were not generated by AI. This is a styled scene, not a hands-on test.
