Samsung’s new vacuum alerts you to calls and texts, while washers and dryers also feature touchscreens for added connectivity.
In Short
Samsung’s new Bespoke AI Jet Ultra vacuum features an LCD display for calls and texts, along with strong suction and battery life.
The company is also enhancing its other appliances, like washers and smart fridges, with touchscreen interfaces and AI integration, although concerns about screen longevity and ads remain unaddressed.
Samsung has introduced a new feature in its Bespoke AI Jet Ultra cordless stick vacuum.
Priced at $1,099, this model includes an LCD display control panel that alerts users to incoming phone calls and text messages while vacuuming.
The device offers standard features like a 100-minute battery life and 400AW suction power, along with an auto-empty charging station.
In addition, Samsung has upgraded its washers and dryers, with the new Bespoke AI Laundry Vented Combo washer/dryer priced at $3,099. This model has a 7-inch touchscreen that allows users to answer phone calls directly.
Bespoke AI
Samsung is expanding this capability across its Bespoke AI line, which includes new smart fridges and wall ovens showcased at CES.
The AI Home terminology refers to the touchscreen interfaces found in these products, integrating features like weather, music, or smart home controls.
Samsung’s Family Hub smart fridge is available with a smaller screen, which still connects to apps and services.
The AI integration allows users to match recipes to available ingredients and send cooking instructions to the oven, enhancing convenience within the home.
Through its SmartThings platform, users can receive alerts from their smart home systems, further integrating technology into daily life.
However, concerns regarding the longevity and potential obsolescence of these screens have been raised, alongside worries about possible ad displays. Samsung has yet to address these concerns publicly.
