Faster Full Cycles, Enhanced Drying, and Smarter Care with the Bespoke AI Laundry Combo

Following its 2024 debut, the 2026 Bespoke AI Laundry Combo is set to launch with upgrades that further shorten wash-to-dry cycles and enhance drying performance[1]. The Super Speed cycle leverages a high-pressure Speed Spray that improves detergent penetration and rinsing to enable fast and efficient washing, while the newly incorporated Booster Heat Exchanger delivers improved drying performance. The upgraded combo also features Auto Open Door+, which not only automatically opens the door, but also activates internal air circulation after wash-only cycles to help keep remaining laundry from developing a musty odour.

Additionally, the upgraded AI Wash & Dry+[2] uses multiple sensors to optimise performance for each load. It detects the weight to determine the right amount of water and detergent, identifies five fabric[3] types – including Outdoor and Denim – and monitors soil levels in real time. The newly applied Wide Lint Filter features a one-touch design for easier cleaning, and a dual-layer design and large capture area to provide thorough collection of lint and particles. This year, in addition to the original 7” LCD screen model, a more affordable variant with a 2.8” LCD screen and jog dial is also being introduced to cater to diverse customer needs. Samsung’s new Bespoke AI Laundry Combo will be available in Australia in 2026. Pricing and launch timing are yet to be announced.

Bespoke AI AirDresser Now Offers Stronger Wrinkle Care and Smarter Drying

Three years after its predecessor, Samsung’s upgraded Bespoke AI AirDresser is returning with enhanced performance and greater convenience. It features the new Auto Wrinkle Care function, which leverages an enhanced Dual AirWash and Dual JetSteam system to help smooth out wrinkles quickly and effortlessly in busy mornings. The Dual JetSteam also effectively maintains the freshness of clothing by infusing high temperature heat deep into the fabric. Furthermore, the model features an intelligent drying course that adjusts drying time to suit small, medium, or large loads. This ensures optimal drying, preventing over or under-drying and protects fabric quality.

A standout feature is its synergy with the Bespoke AI Laundry Combo. The Auto Cycle Link[4] recommends an appropriate drying course on the AirDresser once a wash cycle ends. When certain cycles designed for special care – such as the Blouse Cycle – are selected on the Combo, the same option is automatically queued on the AirDresser, creating a continuous garment care flow. The refreshed design also includes a sleek One Body Door and 2.8″ LCD screen for improved usability. Pricing and availability of the Bespoke AI AirDresser is yet to be announced in Australia.

Samsung will showcase a new WindFree Air Conditioner at CES 2026

Bespoke AI WindFree Pro Air Conditioner Delivers Various Tailored Wind Modes with Multi Blades

This year’s new WindFree Air Conditioner incorporates AI technology[5] and Motion Wind to address the key attribute that influences customer purchasing decisions, which are wind modes[6]. The number of blades have increased from one to three, enabling airflow to be directed in multiple directions according to user preferences. The Triple Motion Wings create seven tailored wind modes — including Max Wind, which delivers faster cooling,[7] Surround Wind, which spreads airflow evenly; Long Reach Wind, which sends cool air further;[8]and Down Wind, which quickly drives warm air downward for faster delivery of cool air. With radar-based AI Direct and Indirect Wind modes, the system senses user presence and automatically directs or diverts airflow to enhance comfort.

The model also includes AI Fast & Comfort Cooling, which analyses temperature, humidity, and room size to automatically activate optimised cooling. Based on usage patterns,[9] it offers Fast Cooling, WindFree comfort and cold-free Dry Comfort. In addition, AI Energy Mode monitors both usage behaviour and external conditions to minimise compressor fluctuations, helping reduce energy.[10] Samsung’s new WindFree Air Conditioner will be available in Australia in 2026. Pricing and launch timing are yet to be announced.

Bespoke AI Jet Bot Ultra Brings Object and Liquid Recognition for Smarter Navigation

The newly launching Bespoke AI Jet Bot Ultra comes with advanced recognition technologies designed to reduce human intervention and simplify cleaning like never before. Powered by a Qualcomm Dragonwing™ processor, it offers deep learning–based AI Object Recognition[11] to better detect humans,[12] cats and dogs,[13] as well as hard-to-see obstacles like cables or rugs. This model also supports AI Liquid Recognition, allowing it to detect liquid spills[14] and determine whether to clean or avoid them based on the user’s set preference. Additionally, upgraded Easy Pass Wheel technology raises the body and lowers the wheels to climb thresholds of up to 60mm.[15] Samsung’s new Bespoke AI Jet Bot Ultra will be available in Australia in 2026. Pricing and launch timing are yet to be announced.

[1] The current Bespoke AI Heatpump Combo (WD18DB8995BZSA) is capable of washing and drying in 98 minutes. Wash in 28 minutes: Based on using a Super Speed cycle with a 3kg cotton base load in accordance with KS C IEC61121:2012. Individual results may vary based on actual load contents. Dry in 70 minutes: Based on using a Super Speed cycle with an 3kg cotton base load in accordance with KS C IEC61121:2012. Individual results may vary based on actual load contents.

[14] A liquid spill is defined as a coloured or transparent liquid, such as water or juice, having a size of 2.8 in x 2.8 in (0.5 oz. or 15ml in volume) or larger. Identification may be affected by the size of the stain or the environmental conditions of the floor, such as the floor pattern. Identification may be affected by the size of the liquid or the environmental conditions of the floor, such as the floor pattern, colour of the floor, direct or reflected light, or shape of the liquid. Excessive amounts of liquid on the floor may cause secondary contamination.
