Samdung's engineers must be either very demoralized or amazingly lazy. As an engineer, how many times can you stand having your product manager or boss come to you with an Apple product in-hand and have them issue orders to build a clone of what Apple has already done? Maybe they'll ask for a few visual tweaks to disguise the fakery and slap their own brand and product naming on it, but it's still a lazy-ass clone and somebody else's idea. Being an engineer, or at least a good engineer, requires a burning desire to take of technical challenges, surprise your customers, peers, and competitors with your engineering prowess, and invest years and year into continuous learning in a field that changes by the minute. Settling for a career of repetitive mediocrity and some bumbling marketeer slathering lipstick all over the pig that you just created, again, for this year's Apple wannabe product clone is something that would cause my head to literally explode. Nobody is completely devoid of pride, much less engineers. As far as anyone knows, Life 1.0 is all there is. Why blow it on working for a division of Samdung whose only strategy is to follow in Apple's footsteps and feast on the chaff they leave behind? Such a sad sad waste of human intellect and opportunity - for what?
The form is definitely interesting. I don’t think it’s terrible albeit a bit sophomoric perhaps. And not really evocative of a modern piece of sound equipment. Looks like they were aiming for a retro-futuristic type vibe? I guess with bixby on board maybe it makes sense in a “Jetson’s” kind of way. EDIT: I just wonder if when it gets really loud there’s any vibration between the feet & the surface it’s sitting on.

IT’S. BEAUTIFUL. I don’t believe it. I honestly don’t believe it. It’s a joke, right? Like, this is a parody of what Samsung would create. Right? This is like what a 30 year old unmarried whore buys to compliment her nightly glass of red wine as she waxes quixotic before Bixby (which, itself, MUST–absolutely MUST–be a parody of the name of an assistant you’d actually want to have).
This "home made" contraption kinda tarnishes the whole Galaxy name brand. What the heck are they thinking? I'm almost embarrassed for them. Yet as an Apple stockholder I do hope they advertise it like crazy.
If flaming phones couldn't tarnish the Galaxy brand, nothing can!!
and the legs are essentially the slanted mid-century furniture legs seen in half the furniture of that period.
Design is OK, though seem to take more desk space and be less stable and potentially vibrates more so a bit of a pain for a shelf speaker that's meant to be able to placed anywhere.

Yes, definitely from a Western point of view. But imitation as homage a long tradition in Asian culture. One reason why West in last 100 years has excelled in breakthroughs. And why many Asian nations have excelled more recently in things like manufacturing, ekeing out small improvements over near identical iterations, relentless pursuit of perfection. Game today has changed with HW and SW and robots.

They mess you up so much you can't tell up from down so yeah, probably good pills but not safe for work obviously...
ROTFLMAO. Your post loses all credibility, btw.
