Teenage Engineering has recently introduced an exceptionally straightforward and aesthetically pleasing PC case named computer-2. However, it is not available for conventional purchase, as the company is offering it at no cost. This distinctive case is part of the “Flipped Out” collection, a promotional initiative aimed at fostering stability globally, with computer-2 being the third installment in a series that runs through 2025.
Teenage Engineering is recognized for crafting groundbreaking technology, mainly audio synthesizers, and has contributed to the development of Panic’s Playdate handheld gaming device. The computer-2 case could be among their most captivating launches to date.
The $0 cost is merely one element that sets this PC case apart. It is intended for small form factor PCs (SFF) and requires no screws for assembly. It accommodates a mini-ITX motherboard, an SFX power supply, and a dual-slot graphics card up to 180mm in size. The case consists of a molded-in-one plastic sheet with snap-hooks that facilitate easy assembly and maintenance.
Currently listed as “sold out” on the company’s site, Teenage Engineering has not verified whether additional units will be provided, but interested parties can register for updates. It is vital to mention that the case does not come with any PC components, so users will need to acquire hardware separately.
Computer-2 serves more as a novelty item, demonstrating how minimalist designs can make an impact in the tech industry.
