What looks like an egg, could be found on The Jetsons, and produces pretty decent sound? The Samsung Radiant 360 speaker. This thing might look a little weird, but it’s actually a nifty device. Samsung unveiled the device back at CES and now they’ve announced it will go on sale later this month for $500.
The Radiant 360 has been designed to use Samsung’s “Ring Radiator” technology. It can deliver balanced audio within a 360-degree radius. You can set it up anywhere and it will deliver sound to every corner of the room. You don’t have to worry about where it sits or points. The odd shape of the speaker also helps evenly disperse the sound.
Since this is a Samsung product you can bet it works with tons of other Samsung devices. The Radiant 360 can integrate with other speakers, and with Samsung’s audio app you can wirelessly control the music and rooms. This device would also be perfect as something like the Amazon Echo. A centralized hub that can answer questions and perform basic tasks. Samsung hasn’t announced anything like that, but we could see it in the future.
What do you thin of this crazy-looking device?

I’d really like to see the guts of this thing. I wonder if it’s set up like Walsh speakers.
I found a picture of the insides on Google.
Overpriced by $400~450.
Nothing beats the PhanBot ?
It looks like a football. Looks like it was made to be kicked.
I see a football. I also see some people’s kids thinking this is a football. I also see $500 out the window… literally.
I thin that once you write an article , it should be read before it gets posted.
I know, right? *Even = evenly. “Thin = think.
he’s got a few weird sentences in there.
Just use it underwater…
At that price point Samsung is pretty much giving them away! $500 is a joke
Oh? And you know the specs on this thing to make a statement like that?
I don’t know why but I have the urge to pick that up.
Then slam it down to the ground and do a touchdown dance.
