Samsung ArtPC PULSE is trying to redefine the design of computers like Apple has already done. This computer is impeccably slim and exquisitely premium. The Samsung ArtPC PULSE is built with full metal in a cylindrical form factor. This is actually the second computer you want to place at the center of your space.
The Great
- Very Pretty
- Beautiful Desgin
- Stackable Expandable HDD
- LED Notifications
- Great 360 Sound
The Not
- Mac Pro Knockoff
- Standard Power
- Uninspired
The Conclusion
The desktop PC is undergoing a renaissance, with designs that beg to be showcased in a living room or creative space. Samsung is joining HP as they mock what Apple does best. Think outside the box and innovate. It’s a distant 3rd in a playing field of 3.
The ArtPC draws immediate comparison to Apple’s machined Mac Pro. With an aluminum build, integrated 360-degree speakers tuned by Harman Kardon— an audio and electronics brand that Samsung is in the process of acquiring— and a modular, expandable design, the ArtPC’s aesthetic is divisive. Part minimalist metal and fully utilitarian, the ArtPC Pulse invites comparisons from passersby to my desk to anything from a futuristic space capsule to Oscar the Grouch’s trash can abode.
Give Us The Deats
The small, cylindrical shape of the desktop machine is quite innovative and attractive. It looks magnificent sitting on a table top with a lighting band proving to be a striking contrast against its full metal, black body. It is equipped with a brilliant and fast working processor. The Radeon Rx graphics card ensures that the graphics you view on your screen are always impeccable. One of its greatest features the way it is engineered. You can twist and turn and remove storage whenever you do not need it, and fix the module back on whenever you do need it.
The Sound And Design
Harman Kardon 360 degree Speakers are the best part about the Samsung ArtPC. They are crisp clean and booming. I’ve always found sound quality lacking in computers and it’s nice to see Samsung up the game. This shows that PC manufacturers are teaming up with the best sound system providers to give users good audio systems alongside powerful PCs
The design is fairly minimal in design and measures 5.51 x 5.51 x 12.18 inches (13.9 x 13.9 x 30.9 cm) and uses the single central fan concept. It’s pretty but it’s not as stunningly elegant as the Mac Pro.
There is one more interesting and innovative design of the Samsung ArtPC PULSE. This Computer allows you to attach and detach more storage whenever you need. Position the HDD unit and spin to click and easily add more storage. Think easily stackable hard drives. Kinda cool.
