Samsung Electronics customers who used to rely on their Galaxy Watches to find misplaced phones can now also locate the devices with the company’s latest fridges.
The latest Bespoke AI-powered refrigerator line-up features a nine-inch homescreen that allows users to simply say, “Hi Bixby, find my phone,” and the enhanced assistant, capable of recognising the voice of individual family members, will ring the correct device.
Customers can also activate the home air conditioners or window blinds with voice commands, while the system will automatically make adjustments using real-time weather data.
These are just a few of the innovations Samsung showcased at an event in Seoul, where it unveiled its new home appliance line-up for the year.
The company aims to secure its leading position in the market by integrating advanced AI technology to deliver a more connected and personalised user experience across its product range, from robot vacuum cleaners to washing machines.
The push to expand AI integration across devices is expected to boost sales this year, Moon Jeong Seung, head of the R&D team for Samsung’s digital appliance business, said at a media conference.
