How AI-powered Samsung technology is creating homes that are wonder-filled
How AI-powered Samsung technology is creating homes that are wonder-filled Samsung has created AI systems that give you time back. Photo supplied. This is sponsored content for Samsung Australia. Running a household takes up headspace - and in the busiest times of our lives, this demand can quietly pile onto our mental load. Whether you enjoy the satisfaction of doing the chores or would much prefer to kick your feet up on the couch and watch an episode of your favourite TV show, Samsung research reveals that 68 per cent of Australians think about household chores up to four times a day. [1] That's more mental airtime than most New Year's resolutions. The research found that, 83 per cent said they would rather be relaxing in front of the TV, listening to music (61 per cent), or spending time with loved ones (60 per cent). [2] In response to this desire to spend less time maintaining the home and more time on the things that matter, Samsung continues to pioneer AI-powered innovations designed to make everyday living smarter, easier, and more enjoyable. Below, we list four innovations from Samsung's 2025 home appliance and audio visual solutions line-up that represent the next leap forward in Samsung's vision to simplify Australian home life with AI and save Australians time every day - so that household maintenance can be a passing thought, not an intrusive one. Upgrade your daily routine with the 809L Bespoke AI Family Hub™+ Refrigerator. Photo supplied. Screens everywhere - More than just TVs Beyond its line-up of smart TVs, in 2025 Samsung has brought its advanced screen technology to a wider range of products including refrigerators, washing machines and more. In particular, the 809L Bespoke AI Family Hub™+ Refrigerator features a 32-inch display that transforms the fridge into a central smart home control hub with the ability to connect, monitor and control compatible third party devices connected through SmartThings's Map View feature. [3] This could mean connecting your fridge to your smart phone to receive calls via Bluetooth or by connecting to your front door camera to greet your guests when they come over for dinner. [4] The 809L Bespoke AI Family Hub™+ Refrigerator can do all sorts of fancy things, such as recognise up to 33 items in your fridge to help you prepare a food list, get recipe suggestions and even manage 'use by dates' by manually setting a date corresponding to the food item. Simply making dinner for one? Users can turn on the 32-inch screen and stream their favourite TV shows and movies while they prepare their meal. Via the AI Home screens, Australians can also use features like the refrigerators' Daily Board to receive personalised information and better manage their day ahead. If you're looking for something a little smaller, the 615L AI Home Side By Side Refrigerator features a 9-inch AI Home screen that manages smart devices in one place, provides access to apps and personalised information and has an Auto Open Door for convenience. [5] By offering a diverse selection of products with varying screen sizes, Samsung aims to enhance usability for consumers while also realising an interconnected smart home. Enjoy an immersive audio experience with Samsung's HW-Q990F Q Series soundbars. Photo supplied. Vision AI - Intelligent screens that adapt to your needs Samsung Vision AI represents the next step in Samsung's journey to deliver intelligent, intuitive and seamless screen experiences. It enables TVs to become smart companions that enhance entertainment and seamlessly integrate into connected lifestyles. This is shown in the Neo QLED 8K QN990F and Neo QLED 4K TV which adapt their brightness and sound based on ambient conditions. This makes the cinematic viewing experience dynamic and spectacular. Similarly, the Q-Series soundbars, like the HW-Q990F and HW-QS700F, use AI-optimised sound to deliver immersive audio tailored to the surrounding environment. This expansion underscores Samsung's commitment to bringing adaptive and intelligent screens to more users, redefining the modern home experience. AI Home and SmartThings - Smarter, safer living Samsung's commitment to smarter living doesn't stop at convenience - it extends to security and peace of mind. At the heart of this is AI Home, underpinned by Samsung's Knox Security for robust data protection. With an expanding SmartThings ecosystem, Samsung enables your devices to work together for a more secure and connected home. For instance, if suspicious activity is detected while you're out, the Bespoke Jet Bot Combo™ AI automatically moves to investigate using its built-in camera, sending real-time video to your Galaxy smartphone for instant monitoring and control. Samsung also enables Galaxy devices and home appliances to access 3D Map View, to oversee and manage your entire smart home from anywhere, at any time. The result? A connected ecosystem that adapts your lifestyle - keeping you informed, entertained and protected. AI that gives you time back Samsung's AI-powered TVs and home appliances are built to help lighten the mental load - turning routine household tasks into smooth, automated experiences. Whether it's intelligent fridges or Smart TVs, each product is designed to give Australians what they crave most: more time to focus on what they love. It also begs the question: How would you spend your time if you had more of it? [1] Nature Research, CE One insights commissioned by Samsung Australia, April 2025.

The upgraded AI Cleaning Mode 2.0 classifies more diverse environments like corners and the type of carpets for improved cleaning performance. Samsung also revealed the Bespoke AI Jet Bot Steam Ultra. Not only is the robot vacuum cleaner designed to climb thresholds, but it is also enhanced with AI Object Recognition for complex environments, which can recognize obstacles as small as 1cm, and even transparent liquids for better cleaning results. And when it encounters corners or walls, the brush pops out, allowing it to clean areas that can be difficult for typical robot vacuum cleaners to deal with. Samsung Home Appliances Bring Easy to Use, Care and Saving to Consumers Samsung elaborated further on its 'AI Home' vision and its commitment to integrating AI across the connected experience to cater to diverse lifestyles — through the core benefits of Easy to Use, Care and Saving. Thanks to the adoption of the AI Home display, users will find it easier than ever to engage with the full functionality of their Bespoke AI appliances. The smart screen is now an even better central control hub, even connecting third party devices through SmartThings without the need for a separate hub device. Users can also utilize features like the refrigerators' Daily Board to receive personalized information and better manage their day — or use Map View to effortlessly monitor and control other connected devices. The upgraded Bixby allows for easier control of appliances through voice commands and enhances usability through new features like Voice ID. It personalizes services by recognizing the user's voice, automatically switching to the Samsung account of the speaker and showing their calendar on the screen. And if that person also uses the low vision option on their Galaxy smartphone, it will be automatically synced to the screen for a better viewing experience. New SmartThings services were also introduced during the event, including Family Care, which sends an alert to other family members if a user's movement is not detected at the set time — or if there is no activity for a certain amount of time after the last activity. It is also possible to use the robot vacuum cleaner to look for signs of an emergency, with all of this functionality being tightly secured by Samsung Knox. Continued Efforts To Deliver Reliable Experiences To complete its 'AI Home' vision for 2025, Samsung shone a light on how it is pushing the boundaries of innovation, prioritizing a trusted experience for users. First, Samsung will apply enhanced Knox security to devices across the lineup so that users will be able to enjoy their AI Home experience with peace of mind. This year in particular, Trust Chain, which is part of Knox Matrix, is applied to all Wi-Fi enabled appliances launching in 2025. Users can continuously monitor products' security status in real time through the dashboard. Knox Vault is also applied to home appliances for the first time, storing particularly sensitive user information, such as passwords and authentication information, in a separate hardware chip to ensure protection. Furthermore, to protect against the potential of future quantum attacks, Samsung's security is also equipped with post-quantum cryptography (PQC), a part of Knox Matrix Credential Sync, for its screen-applied products. Another key priority for Samsung is making sure that customers can use the latest software features on their existing appliances without buying new ones. With Smart Forward, the software update service through SmartThings, Samsung continuously updates its appliances with new features to enhance the consumer experience. Samsung is also actively improving product maintenance. SmartThings Home Care utilizes AI to diagnose each appliance's status, and if signs of malfunction are detected, it sends a notification in advance. In addition, a technical support representative can provide guidance on remote measures based on pre-diagnosis results. This support feature has already expanded to more countries, including France, Netherlands, and Canada, following Korea and the United States. By integrating all of these wide-ranging initiatives, Samsung aims to create safer and more reliable smart home experiences that users can enjoy with comfort and peace of mind.

Samsung Electronics Unveils ‘AI Home' Vision at Welcome to Bespoke AI Event
Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. unveiled its refreshed 'AI Home' vision and innovative appliance lineup at its global launch event, Welcome to Bespoke AI, in Seoul, Korea. With a focus on providing a more secure and intuitive user experience, the company introduced an AI Home experience, showcasing advanced AI features and a wider range of screen-enabled appliances. Jeong Seung Moon, EVP and Head of the R&D Team for Digital Appliances Business at Samsung Electronics, opened the global press conference by introducing the company's vision for creating an AI Home that harmoniously connects various devices and, as a result, caters to user needs in every room of the home. "Through our Bespoke AI appliances, Samsung has brought an AI Home to life that not only enhances everyday convenience but also enables energy savings and care," said Jeong Seung Moon. "We will continue to expand the advanced AI Home to more households, leveraging smart screens, Bixby and Knox security." The 2025 Bespoke AI Appliance Lineup During the event, Samsung introduced its Bespoke AI appliances for 2025, which bring new and innovative functionalities to solve users' difficult problems. At the heart of the company's vision is the AI Home display. Built upon the innovation of the first introduction of the AI Home display last year, the AI Home with new size options has been expanded to a broad range of new products, such as Bespoke AI Refrigerators, the Bespoke AI Laundry Vented Combo, Washers, and Dryers. The 9-inch AI Home screen on the Bespoke AI Refrigerator lineup increases consumers' options by offering a similar experience to what's available on the larger AI Family Hub™ screen. With the upgraded AI Vision Inside, food management has been enhanced with new features such as automatic recognition of processed food items, for models with the AI Family Hub™ and those with the AI Home. Through the 7-inch AI Home in the Bespoke AI Laundry, users can intuitively control the washing and drying cycles, as well as monitor and control other connected devices. Moreover, the new Bespoke AI appliances bring enhanced features that adapt to consumer needs. For example, the Bespoke AI Hybrid Refrigerator utilizes AI to efficiently cool the inside of the fridge, detecting its current status and predicting internal temperature changes to effectively adapt cooling. The Bespoke AI Laundry includes new functions to enhance consumer convenience, with new standalone models that have upgraded AI Wash and AI Dry to AI Wash+ and AI Dry+, as well as models to be launched in Europe, using up to 55% less energy than class A minimum requirements for the washer. Also, Samsung unveiled the new Bespoke AI Laundry Vented Combo, which is the first ever vented combo in its class. It significantly reduces drying time, finishing both washing and drying in 68 minutes with its Super Speed cycle. Samsung is continuing to innovate its vacuum cleaner lineup, as well. The cordless stick vacuum cleaner, the Bespoke AI Jet Ultra, will be launched with the world's most powerful suction power of up to 400W.
