Samsung's latest robot vacuum can clean and monitor your home at the same time
Samsung has announced the launch of its latest robot vacuum ahead of IFA 2025 expo next month. What's more, apart from cleaning your floors, the Bespoke Jet Bot series floor cleaner includes a security camera to monitor your home.
And it's not just a gimmick. The security camera has gained the top 'Diamond' security rating based on Underwriters Laboratories' independent evaluation.
Samsung's Bespoke AI Jet Bot Steam Ultra follows the Bespoke AI Jet Bot, launched at the start of 2024. And just like its predecessor, the latest model uses AI to clean and mop your floor while avoiding all obstacles. Not to mention the fact the mop sanitised with steam to guarantee a hygienic clean.
The robot vacuum also uses AI Object Recognition, capturing images for a bespoke clean, while also using pre-specified perimeters to tell it where to go and what to clean. This premium model also features a built-in camera to ensure the ultimate cleanup, plus support for Samsung's SmartThings app — allowing the appliance to be controlled remotely.
There's even features that let you monitor other home appliances and store user information in the web browser.
To ensure a high standard of protection, Samsung has various security measures courtesy of Samsung Knox — including Knox Vault, and Knox Matrix Trust Chain. Thanks to Knox, the security status of connected appliances will be monitored in real time.
Knox Vault, which has been added to home appliances for the first time this year is here for that added level of security. It stores particularly sensitive user information, such as passwords and authentication information, in a separate secure hardware chip.

And for user peace of mind, Samsung notes that the IoT security marketing claims are verified by Underwriters Laboratories' Solutions, gaining the highest 'Diamond' rating. The top rating only includes products that can successfully detect and block malicious software, prevent unauthorized access and anonymize user data.
'As the smart home environment expands and concerns around data privacy grow, consumers are looking for more secure products they can trust,' said Jeong Seung Moon, EVP and Head of the R&D Team for Digital Appliances Business at Samsung Electronics. 'Samsung remains committed to providing the best possible experience for users by building a powerful security foundation that protects their data across our AI-powered appliances.'
Samsung is yet to release details about the cost of the Bespoke AI Jet Bot Steam, but we expect it will be a fair bit pricier than the Bespoke AI Jet Bot Combo, which currently retails for $1,699.
When can we expect to see the Bespoke AL Jet Bot Ultra? It will make its first appearance at IFA 2025 in Berlin during the first week in September. The Tom's Guide team will be on the ground, ready to report back on the launch.
