On World Environment Day, we explored ways and smart practices we can incorporate in our daily lives, using Samsung’s latest smart appliances and devices that integrate connectivity and cutting-edge technologies like AI. 

Save Energy, Save Costs

Using AI Energy Mode with the WindFree Conditioner

Take your energy monitoring to the next level with the SmartThings Energy[1], Artificial Intelligence (AI) Energy Mode[2]. AI Energy Mode uses AI to keep track of usage patterns and power consumption of your compatible appliances, by providing an overview of daily, weekly, and monthly power consumption across Bespoke AI appliances, and analyses the data to provide useful insights through the SmartThings app[3].

For the Bespoke Top Mounted Freezer refrigerator, AI Energy Mode recommends users to switch to AI Energy Mode when an estimated monthly electricity bill goes over preset targets.[4] It also helps adjust Air Conditioners’ settings based on your usage patterns, room temperature, and humidity.

Forgot to turn off your lights before leaving the house? Fret not about incurring unnecessary electricity costs. The power-off function on the SmartThings app lets you turn off your compatible appliances, such as TVs, kitchen appliances, lights and even plugs[5] remotely whether you are in another room or outside your home.

Set up your power-off routines in a few taps

With SmartThings Energy[6] on the SmartThings App, your compatible devices can also be programmed to power down by scheduling. For instance, enable location-based routines and cue SmartThings to turn off your compatible household appliances such as the air-conditioner when all your family members have left home.

Clean Home, Conscious Consumption

Doing laundry may seem like a chore, so efficient time management is always helpful. Connect your compatible Samsung washer to SmartThings and receive timely notifications when the wash cycle is done or if any errors occur – so you can start saving time and energy today!

Step-by-step optimal cleaning with AI Wash

Another handy feature is AI Wash, which helps you wash clothes thoroughly[7] but gently with less detergent waste and effort[8], and built-in sensors that do all the hard work for you, working to determine the optimum amount of water and detergent to use, as well as the optimal amount of water to rinse the load.

Intensive and intelligent cleaning with the Bespoke Jet AI

Beyond laundry, keeping your home clean is likewise a breeze with Bespoke Jet AI, the world’s first UL Verified AI cordless stick vacuum cleaner[9]. Equipped with AI mode[10] which classifies complex cleaning environments[11]

Eat Well, Reduce Food Waste

While savoring food is often a highlight of our day, the preparation process can be tedious and sometimes result in unintentional food wastage.

Manage your food simply to make sure no ingredient goes to waste. Before grocery shopping, check a food list on the SmartThings App[12], created with the help of AI Vision Inside[13] that uses an internal camera[14] to automatically identify certain fresh food items. All Family Hub refrigerators allow users to view images of items in the door bins, manually manage a food list and set use-by dates, and get recipe recommendations based on the food list with Samsung Food on the Family Hub touchscreen.

Baking for the family or roasting a feast for friends? Make cooking easy, fun, and shareable with professional results using Bespoke AI Oven’s AI Pro Cooking’s[15] artificial intelligence.

The Sense Inside function recommends recipes based on ingredients

Serve up amazing dishes while saving time to ideate recipes with AI Pro Cooking’s Sense Inside[16] function that recognises ingredients, recommends recipes, and optimise settings with just one button[17]. It also monitors the doneness of your food, guiding you on whether your food is under or overcooked, and even alerting you if burning is detected[18].

Check on your dish with the SmartThings App[19]

Last but not least, AI Pro Cooking’s View Inside internal camera[20] eliminates the guesswork for you, helping you check on your dish without frequently opening the oven door, ensuring a more convenient and effective cooking process.

Be it optimising your energy usage with the handy AI Energy Mode or saving time on laundry or cleaning chores, take these small and mighty steps to using less and living more today!

Samsung’s Bespoke Jet AI is an intelligent stick vacuum designed for a detailed clean from start to finish. Image simulated for illustrative purposes.

Samsung Electronics Australia is today further empowering Australians to choose home appliances that exceed design, intelligence, and performance expectations by adding the Bespoke Jet AI premium cordless stick vacuum range to its award-winning Bespoke Home line-up.

Now available via Samsung’s Online Store in a timeless Satin Greige colour, the Samsung Bespoke Jet AI Vacuum is designed to elevate Australian lifestyles by providing Samsung’s most powerful suction — up to 280W[1] — fuelled by the lightest stick motor on the market[2] and double the battery capacity of its predecessor with up to 100 mins run time[3]. Available in 280W (VS28C9769QG/SA) and 250W (VS25C9759QG/SA) models, the Samsung Bespoke Jet AI Vacuum will be available via Harvey Norman from September 2023.

“Powerful suction, long-lasting battery life, and a design to be proud of; that’s what Australian consumers have told us they want in a stick vacuum and that’s what we’ve delivered with the new Bespoke Jet AI,” says Jeremy Senior, Vice President – Consumer Electronics, Samsung Australia.

“We’ve worked hard to remove common consumer pain points and add convenience through technology. There is no need to change brush heads to ensure a deep clean on different floor types with innovative AI technology adjusting suction as you vacuum. Furthermore, our enhanced Integrated Clean Station helps address the frustration often experienced with emptying your dust bin which causes fine dust to escape back into your home or back onto the floor.”

Made to last for an entire clean, the Bespoke Jet AI is Samsung’s most powerful cordless stick vacuum to date, with up to 100 minutes of usage. Image simulated for illustrative purposes.

An Exceptionally Intelligent Cleaning Experience with AI-Based Cleaning

Harnessing Samsung’s AI Optimum Tech, both the Bespoke Jet AI 280W and 250W models feature an all-new AI Cleaning Mode which provides an effective cleaning experience while catering to a diverse range of floor environments within the home. The Bespoke Jet AI is also Samsung’s first cordless stick vacuum to feature an AI verification from UL Solutions, a leading independent safety science organisation, due to the ˋAI Optimum Techˊ AI Algorithm Verified For Classifying Flooring Type & Controlling Settings[4].

Via AI Cleaning Mode, the Bespoke Jet AI is designed to detect the brush load it has encountered through its suction motion controller, as well as the air pressure through its pressure sensors. Settings are analysed to classify the floor type the vacuum is placed on, and the resulting algorithm is automatically applied to provide the optimal suction power and brushroll speed[5]. The outcome is an automatic tailored cleaning experience designed to lessen the time it takes to complete chores, adding convenience to the lives of Australians.

In addition to the Bespoke Jet AI’s AI Cleaning Mode, SmartThings[6] and Smart Wi-Fi connectivity[7] lets users customise their vacuum experience and its functions while maintaining peak performance through the smart self-diagnosis function, providing more effective cleaning experiences.

Clean Experiences With An Upgraded Integrated Clean Station

The upgraded Integrated Clean Station uses Air Spin Edge technology spins to drain waste and remaining debris in the dustbin. Image simulated for illustrative purposes.

The Bespoke Jet AI’s upgraded Integrated Clean Station harnesses Air Pulse technology to automatically empty the dustbin for quick cleaning. When the dustbin is being emptied, the Integrated Clean Station’s Air Spin Edge technology swirls the Spinning Cyclone, removing remaining debris such as hair that may get stuck in the dustbin’s grille.

The enhanced Integrated Clean Station can automatically shut its cover after every disposal and offers a more powerful dust management performance with a 99.999% Multi-layered Filtration System[8] for trapping fine dust[9].

The Bespoke Jet AI 280W and 250W models are available from today via Samsung’s Online Store and will roll out nationwide via Harvey Norman from September 2023. Available in Satin Greige, the models will retail for $1,599 (VS28C9769QG/SA) and $1,499 (VS25C9759QG/SA) respectively.
