<p>“Samsung looks beyond performance and functionality to consider how appliances fit naturally into people’s living spaces and deliver meaningful experiences in everyday use,” said Hyoung Min Park, Vice President and Head of the Customer Experience Team of the Digital Appliances (DA) Business at Samsung Electronics. “We will continue to combine AI with differentiated design and engineering to deliver greater convenience and efficiency that consumers can experience in their daily lives.”</p>

<p>Samsung Electronics today announced that it is expanding its flat design, previously available on select premium models, to its new 24-inch front-load washer lineup. The new models are currently on display at Samsung Connect, Samsung’s exhibition being held during IFA 2026 from Sept. 2-6, offering visitors an early look ahead of the official launch.<sup data-fn="a1c59f5b-c0e9-4bda-85a9-9390021daee4" class="fn"><a href="#a1c59f5b-c0e9-4bda-85a9-9390021daee4" id="a1c59f5b-c0e9-4bda-85a9-9390021daee4-link">1</a></sup></p>



<p>“Customers around the world increasingly expect home appliances to harmonize with their living environments,” said Hyoung Min Park, Vice President and Head of the Customer Experience Team of the Digital Appliances (DA) Business at Samsung Electronics. “By bringing our flat design to a wider range of laundry appliances, Samsung aims to deliver a consistent design experience that combines refined aesthetics with thoughtful usability.”</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Refined Flat Design Improves Interior Fit and Usability</strong></h2>



<p>Samsung’s expansion of its signature flat design to the new 24-inch front-load washer lineup marks the latest evolution of the company’s design approach across its home appliance portfolio.</p>



<p>Compared to Samsung’s previous designs that featured more protruding front elements, the updated design offers a flat front surface with a more uniform appearance. This creates a cleaner, more sophisticated look that blends naturally into modern interiors and living environments.</p>



<p>Beyond aesthetics, the design also enhances everyday usability. The larger door with a wider opening angle enables easier access when loading and unloading laundry, making the task more convenient. More broadly, the new lineup and the showcase during IFA reflect Samsung’s continued efforts to expand refined design experiences to more consumers and living spaces.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Features Designed for Everyday Laundry Needs</strong></h2>



<p>In addition to the redesigned exterior, the new lineup incorporates key laundry technologies previously available on select premium models, bringing advanced washing experiences to more consumers. To address growing consumer demand for faster wash cycles and more efficient laundry routines, the lineup features Bubble Shot<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />, which sprays water throughout the drum. This helps reduce wash time while maintaining effective cleaning performance,<sup data-fn="894c893e-6417-4d58-9554-f09f9c04e598" class="fn"><a href="#894c893e-6417-4d58-9554-f09f9c04e598" id="894c893e-6417-4d58-9554-f09f9c04e598-link">2</a></sup> providing a more convenient laundry experience for users.</p>



<p>The lineup also comes with Ecobubble<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> technology, which allows detergent to dissolve more quickly and distribute more evenly across fabrics, helping users save energy while washing clothes effectively, even at low temperatures.<sup data-fn="f56c2702-838f-43d3-a650-fecabab953ac" class="fn"><a href="#f56c2702-838f-43d3-a650-fecabab953ac" id="f56c2702-838f-43d3-a650-fecabab953ac-link">3</a></sup></p>



<p>By combining a refined exterior with advanced laundry technologies, Samsung’s new 24-inch washer lineup delivers a more intuitive laundry experience across diverse households. The company will continue to expand user-focused design approaches and technologies across its home appliance portfolio.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Exhibition Information</strong></h2>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">*For illustrative purposes only. Product design and specifications are subject to change.</h4>



<p>Samsung Electronics today announced that it will showcase two new Bespoke AI Washer models during IFA 2026:<sup data-fn="1d67a5bb-cb07-44d3-9c4c-bed98d0a48ef" class="fn"><a href="#1d67a5bb-cb07-44d3-9c4c-bed98d0a48ef" id="1d67a5bb-cb07-44d3-9c4c-bed98d0a48ef-link">1</a></sup> a 10 kg model designed to deliver A-70% energy efficiency<sup data-fn="f22a7c1b-00a7-4334-ab00-92fa5dfda701" class="fn"><a href="#f22a7c1b-00a7-4334-ab00-92fa5dfda701" id="f22a7c1b-00a7-4334-ab00-92fa5dfda701-link">2</a></sup> and a 13 kg large-capacity model engineered to fit within a standard 600 mm depth.</p>



<p>As the official main sponsor of the IFA Creator Hub, Samsung will showcase its latest innovations at Humboldt Carré in Berlin, Germany from Sept. 2-6. The new Bespoke AI Washers will be among the products on display, highlighting Samsung’s latest advances in technology.</p>



<p>The two new models combine improved energy efficiency and greater capacity with space-efficient design and AI-powered fabric care to help consumers manage laundry more efficiently and conveniently.</p>



<p>“At Samsung, we are continually challenging the traditional trade-offs between energy efficiency, capacity and convenience,” said Hyoung Min Park, VP and Head of the Customer Experience Team of the Digital Appliances (DA) Business at Samsung Electronics. “During IFA 2026, we’re demonstrating how innovation can help consumers save energy, handle larger loads and enjoy a more intelligent and convenient laundry experience.”</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Larger 10 Kg Bespoke AI Washer Brings New Efficiency Milestone</strong></h2>



<p>The Bespoke AI Washer with A-70% energy efficiency marks a new step forward for Samsung, following the A-55% Bespoke AI Washer introduced at IFA 2024 and the A-65% model showcased at IFA 2025.</p>



<p>The new washer will be designed to consume up to 70% less energy than the minimum energy efficiency requirement for a Class A rating in Europe, while increasing washing capacity from 9 kg<sup data-fn="5dc667b5-829b-4c28-b7d7-e24f05b26023" class="fn"><a href="#5dc667b5-829b-4c28-b7d7-e24f05b26023" id="5dc667b5-829b-4c28-b7d7-e24f05b26023-link">3</a></sup> to 10 kg. By improving capacity and energy efficiency simultaneously, the new model builds on the company’s continued research into overcoming the traditional compromise between washing larger loads and reducing energy consumption.</p>



<p>Samsung has achieved these gains through engineering improvements across key areas, including motor efficiency, thermal management, and wash-cycle design. Together, these technologies reduce electricity consumption while maintaining effective cleaning performance and everyday usability.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>13 Kg Bespoke AI Washer Offers Increased Capacity With Standard-Depth Footprint</strong></h2>



<p>Samsung will also showcase the new Bespoke AI Washer with large capacity, which brings a 13 kg washing capacity to a standard European design depth of 600 mm.</p>



<p>Using SpaceMax<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> technology, which creates more space inside to enhance the mechanical design and incorporate a larger drum without increasing the external dimensions, the washer increases internal volume while maintaining a compact 24-inch form factor. This space-efficient design allows users to wash larger loads, bedding, and bulkier items — while helping the appliance fit within common European kitchen, utility-room, and furniture configurations.</p>



<p>The washer also incorporates Samsung’s mono-body design, creating a unified form designed to blend naturally into a wide range of interiors. A slim front frame reinforces its streamlined silhouette, while refined colors, materials, and finishes contribute to a clean, understated appearance.</p>



<p>At the center of the interface is a large touch display visually integrated with the detergent compartment. From this display, users can intuitively access cycle controls, connected features, and personalized laundry services through SmartThings.<sup data-fn="583ca707-2bc9-462c-9ace-b7eeb1ec606a" class="fn"><a href="#583ca707-2bc9-462c-9ace-b7eeb1ec606a" id="583ca707-2bc9-462c-9ace-b7eeb1ec606a-link">4</a></sup></p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Auto Open Door Helps Keep the Washer Interior Fresh</strong></h2>



<p>For added convenience, both washers feature Auto Open Door. Once a wash cycle is complete, the washer door opens gradually to help release residual moisture from inside the drum. By automatically ventilating the interior after a cycle, Auto Open Door helps keep the washer interior fresh between cycles.</p>



<p>Together, the new A-70% and 13 kg Bespoke AI Washers reflect Samsung’s continued effort to challenge traditional laundry trade-offs. They deliver great capacity with lower energy consumption, making everyday laundry more intelligent and convenient.</p>

<p>Samsung Electronics today announced the opening of <strong>“Design is an Act of Love”</strong> at Design Miami Seoul 2026, a global design event taking place in Seoul from Sept. 1-6.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="562" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/01092344/Samsung-Corporate-Design-Miami-Seoul-2026-Design-is-an-Act-of-Love-Press-Release_main1.jpg" alt="Samsung Electronics today announced the opening of “Design is an Act of Love” at Design Miami Seoul 2026, a global design event taking place in Seoul from Sept. 1-6." class="wp-image-176981" /></figure>



<p>The exhibition celebrates a human-centered design vision rooted in a deep understanding of and care for people. Visitors will experience Samsung’s Expressive Design through works by 14 Korean artists reinterpreting a selection of Samsung products, which are being presented on the 2026 OLED TV S95H along with 14 custom frames that become part of the artworks themselves. Together, the works showcase Samsung’s Expressive Design through a range of individual perspectives and interpretations.</p>



<p>“‘Design is an Act of Love’ represents how we approach design — with a deep understanding of people at its core,” said Mauro Porcini, President and Chief Design Officer of the Device eXperience (DX) Division at Samsung Electronics. “Creativity starts with people, and AI can help amplify our imagination and take our ideas further. At Samsung, we will continue to expand possibilities for people through a more human, diverse, and expressive approach to design.”</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Reinterpreting Samsung Products: 14 Korean Artists’ Artworks on OLED TV S95H With 14 Custom Frames</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="563" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/01092411/Samsung-Corporate-Design-Miami-Seoul-2026-Design-is-an-Act-of-Love-Press-Release_main2.jpg" alt="Each of the 14 artists who collaborated with Samsung drew on their unique perspective and imagination to develop their concepts, while using AI as a tool to expand their ideas and creative expression." class="wp-image-176982" /></figure>



<p>Each of the 14 artists who collaborated with Samsung drew on their unique perspective and imagination to develop their concepts, while using AI as a tool to expand their ideas and creative expression. Each work began with the artist’s own creativity, with AI helping bring those ideas to life in different ways.</p>



<p>A range of Samsung products were reinterpreted by the artists, including Music Studio 5, Bespoke AI Refrigerator Family Hub, and Galaxy Z Fold 8, spanning eight products across mobile devices, home appliances, and TVs. The result is a collection of expressive artworks that embody Samsung’s design principles as well as the artists’ individual aesthetics.</p>



<p>Samsung is also showcasing the S95H OLED TV with 14 custom frames, demonstrating how a single product can reflect diverse perspectives through the company’s Expressive Design strategy.</p>



<p>The S95H features Samsung’s Float Layer Design, which makes the screen appear to float above a real-metal plate. Its structure and materials become part of the design, giving the TV a distinctive presence while allowing it to blend naturally into its surroundings.</p>



<p>For the exhibition, the custom frames bring different perspectives to the S95H, corresponding with the artwork displayed on screen and showing how the same product can take on a distinct character depending on the space and individual preferences.</p>



<p>The exhibition will take place from Sept. 1-6 at Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP) in Seoul. On Sept. 3, Chief Design Officer Porcini will take part in a discussion to share his perspectives on Samsung’s design vision.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Galaxy Experiences That Work Better Together</strong></h2>



<p>The Galaxy Book6 brings together Galaxy AI and connected experiences across Galaxy devices to make it easier to find information, move content and work across screens.</p>



<p><strong>AI Select</strong><sup data-fn="a5beed14-4b41-4d50-8b9e-ec6b411455af" class="fn"><a href="#a5beed14-4b41-4d50-8b9e-ec6b411455af" id="a5beed14-4b41-4d50-8b9e-ec6b411455af-link">6</a></sup> lets users select content directly on the screen and instantly access helpful information and insights while browsing, shopping, or viewing content online. It also includes <strong>AI cut out</strong>, which lets users instantly remove image backgrounds to prepare polished visuals for presentations, e-commerce listings, or marketing materials. <strong>Note Assist</strong><sup data-fn="4bbe6a75-fcaa-49a9-a441-fb565e730a8e" class="fn"><a href="#4bbe6a75-fcaa-49a9-a441-fb565e730a8e" id="4bbe6a75-fcaa-49a9-a441-fb565e730a8e-link">7</a></sup> summarizes notes and surfaces key information so users can review important details faster.</p>

<p>Content also moves more easily across Galaxy devices. <strong>Quick Share</strong> enables fast file sharing between compatible devices, while <strong>Storage Share</strong> lets users access photos, videos, and files across compatible Galaxy smartphones and Galaxy Book without transferring them first — making it easier to bring content from a phone directly into a document, presentation, or creative project.</p>



<p>Galaxy Book6 also helps users work naturally across screens. <strong>Multi Control</strong><sup data-fn="2a269b86-e565-4d18-84c0-671731db1a24" class="fn"><a href="#2a269b86-e565-4d18-84c0-671731db1a24" id="2a269b86-e565-4d18-84c0-671731db1a24-link">8</a></sup> allows a single keyboard and mouse to control multiple supported Galaxy devices, while <strong>Second Screen</strong><sup data-fn="774da205-b312-40c3-8d17-135fec2285e0" class="fn"><a href="#774da205-b312-40c3-8d17-135fec2285e0" id="774da205-b312-40c3-8d17-135fec2285e0-link">9</a></sup> turns a Galaxy Tab into an additional display. <strong>Nearby Devices</strong><sup data-fn="c38e74dc-bc49-482d-a200-9a163da4dac5" class="fn"><a href="#c38e74dc-bc49-482d-a200-9a163da4dac5" id="c38e74dc-bc49-482d-a200-9a163da4dac5-link">10</a></sup> simplifies device discovery and connection, and <strong>Link to Windows</strong><sup data-fn="c7b2f803-dca7-445e-ae8a-15323aa9cd0c" class="fn"><a href="#c7b2f803-dca7-445e-ae8a-15323aa9cd0c" id="c7b2f803-dca7-445e-ae8a-15323aa9cd0c-link">11</a></sup> extends supported Galaxy smartphone experiences to the PC.</p>

<p>Samsung Electronics today announced its 2027 Odyssey gaming monitor lineup at Gamescom 2026, the world’s largest gaming event, being held in Cologne, Germany from Aug. 26-30. The new lineup introduces multiple Odyssey models that feature world-first innovations, empowering players with greater versatility across speed, screen size, picture quality, and flexible display modes.</p>



<p>“Players come to Gamescom to discover what is next, try new games, and experience the technology they need to stay focused and compete at their best,” said Hun Lee, Executive Vice President of the Visual Display (VD) Business at Samsung Electronics. “With new form factors, higher refresh rates, and advanced display technologies, the 2027 Odyssey lineup gives players more choice across competitive play, cinematic games, and multi-purpose setups.”</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Samsung To Spotlight 2027 Odyssey Lineup at Gamescom 2026</strong></h2>



<p>Samsung will present the 2027 Odyssey lineup for the first time during its dedicated Gamescom 2026 session, “#PlaySamsung : The Next Era of Gaming Displays,” at 10:30 a.m. CET on Aug. 27. The session will explore how screen size, resolution, refresh rate, and display modes suit different games and play styles.</p>

<p>The Odyssey OLED G9 (G95SJ model) and Odyssey OLED G7 (G75SJ model) will be unveiled on stage, while the Odyssey OLED G8 (G80SJ model) and Odyssey G6 (G60H model) will be introduced on-screen during the keynote.</p>



<p>As a part of the session, Samsung will also spotlight its HDR10+ GAMING partnership with Activision Blizzard, bringing richer HDR gameplay into the development process for Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® 4. The technology helps compatible Odyssey monitors and Samsung displays deliver color and contrast that more accurately reflect the creative intent of each game. Samsung plans to expand the HDR10+ GAMING ecosystem to more than 20 AAA titles by the first half of 2027.</p>



<p>The company will also showcase its expanding Odyssey 3D game support, developed through direct collaboration with game studios. New supported titles, including Cyberpunk 2077 and Cronos: The New Dawn, will be presented on stage to demonstrate how Odyssey 3D adds depth and spatial perspective to detailed game worlds.</p>

<p>The Odyssey OLED G9 is the world’s first 49-inch DQHD gaming monitor with a 360 Hz refresh rate.

Its five-layer panel structure is up to 1.3 times more efficient and offers up to twice the lifetime of the previous generation. The RGB Stripe sub-pixel layout reduces color fringing and supports clearer text, while the display reaches a peak brightness of up to 1,300 nits on a 3% window at 4K resolution.<sup data-fn="8c956552-1695-4f8c-8259-db8cbdb924c3" class="fn"><a href="#8c956552-1695-4f8c-8259-db8cbdb924c3" id="8c956552-1695-4f8c-8259-db8cbdb924c3-link">1</a></sup></p>

<p>Built for players who want a wider field of view without giving up speed, the Odyssey OLED G9 features Dual QHD resolution (5120 x 1440), a 360 Hz refresh rate, a 0.03 ms GtG response time, and Dual Mode support.

<p>Samsung Electronics a global leader in advanced memory technology, today unveiled the P9 and P7, its next-generation portable solid-state drives (SSDs) featuring USB4 connectivity. The company introduced the new P Series at Gamescom 2026, the world’s largest gaming event, held in Cologne, Germany from Aug. 26-30.</p>



<p>Designed to meet rapidly growing storage demands driven by ultra-high-resolution video, AI content, and large-scale games, the P Series includes the flagship P9, which delivers high-end performance for professional users, and the P7, designed for fast and convenient storage across everyday use cases.</p>



<p>“As AI-powered content creation and ultra-high-resolution video make large amounts of data part of everyday life, users increasingly expect faster and more reliable storage experiences,” said Tommy Kwon, Vice President and Head of Brand Product Biz Team at Samsung Electronics. “With fast file storage and backup, the P Series is designed to provide professionals and everyday users alike with the performance they need to work efficiently across a wide range of applications.”</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>P9: Up to Twice the Performance With USB4</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="667" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/25140000/Samsung-Semiconductors-P9-P7-SSD-USB4-Gamescom-2026_Main1.jpg" alt="An Image of P9" class="wp-image-176753" /></figure>



<p>Powered by USB4, the flagship P9 delivers sequential read speeds of up to 4,000 megabytes-per-second (MB/s) and sequential write speeds of up to 3,800MB/s, offering industry-leading transfer performance. Its sequential read and write speeds are approximately twice those of the previous generation. For comparison, the 4-terabyte (TB) T9, featuring a USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 interface, delivers sequential read and write speeds of up to 2,000MB/s.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="563" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/25140028/Samsung-Semiconductors-P9-P7-SSD-USB4-Gamescom-2026_Main2.jpg" alt="An Image of P9 Lifestyle" class="wp-image-176754" /></figure>



<p>The P9 is also the world’s first 8TB USB4 portable SSD supporting speeds of up to 4,000MB/s. For this level of ingenuity and technological capability, the P9 was recognized with a CES 2026 Innovation Award earlier this year.</p>



<p>With strong sustained write performance, the P9 supports 12K direct recording for professional production workflows, enabling creators to capture, store, and edit large RAW image files and ultra-high-resolution video.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>P7: Fast, Versatile Storage for Everyday Use</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="667" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/25140112/Samsung-Semiconductors-P9-P7-SSD-USB4-Gamescom-2026_Main3.jpg" alt="An Image of P7" class="wp-image-176755" /></figure>



<p>Also featuring USB4 technology, the P7 is designed to provide fast and convenient storage across work, entertainment, and everyday use. It offers broad compatibility with a wide range of host devices, including desktops, laptops, smartphones, gaming consoles, and cameras.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="563" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/25140132/Samsung-Semiconductors-P9-P7-SSD-USB4-Gamescom-2026_Main4.jpg" alt="An Image of P7 Lifestyle" class="wp-image-176756" /></figure>



<p>The P7 has completed 2-meter drop testing as well as shock and vibration durability testing, helping users keep important data protected during travel, outdoor activities, and other mobile environments.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Availability</strong></h2>



<p>The Samsung Portable SSD P Series will be available in 1TB, 2TB, 4TB, and 8TB capacities, with a global rollout beginning September.</p>

Judged by a collective of expert editors from top technology publications across more than 25 countries, these accolades provide an independent assessment of audio performance and innovation. The recognition reinforces Samsung’s ongoing efforts to push the boundaries of premium wireless audio through advanced hardware, intelligent software, and user-centric design.</p>



<p>EISA’s praise further highlights the Galaxy Buds4 Pro’s balance of audio performance, call quality and everyday usability.</p>



<p>“Employing a two-way speaker with individual amplifiers dedicated to the woofer and tweeter Samsung’s Galaxy Buds4 Pro yields clean, musical detail,” commented Ljubisa Miodragovic, President at EISA. “Meanwhile, advanced Sensor Fusion technology combines a dedicated Voice Pickup Unit (VPU) with DNN-powered noise reduction to ensure exceptionally clear calls.”</p>



<p>“At Samsung, our goal has always been to deliver Hi-Fi sound that stays true to the original recording. Receiving the EISA In-Ear Headphones Award validates our commitment to audio engineering excellence and affirms our promise of delivering premium sound quality and user experiences,” said Han-gil Moon, Master and Head of Audio Group, Mobile eXperience (MX) Business at Samsung Electronics. “Users can be confident that Galaxy Buds4 Pro are built to provide the best and most satisfying sound experience. We will continue to build on this foundation to offer even richer listening experiences in the future.”</p>



<p>Galaxy Buds4 Pro delivers Samsung’s most advanced audio experience to date, with standout features including:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>A newly designed wider woofer </strong>that increases the effective speaker area by nearly 20% over the previous generation, paired with a dedicated tweeter to deliver clean bass, rich treble, and 24-bit/96 kHz UHQ audio true to the original recording. EISA experts praised Buds4 Pro for yielding “clean musical detail while limiting distortion across the frequency range.”</li>



<li><strong>Enhanced Adaptive ANC and EQ </strong>that analyzes wearing conditions and each user’s unique ear shape, applying optimal noise-cancelling algorithms in real time, so users can enjoy a consistent listening experience all day long.</li>



<li><strong>Super Clear Call </strong>enabled by the device’s advanced Sensor Fusion technology, which combines a Voice Pickup Unit (VPU) with Deep Neural Network (DNN)-powered noise reduction to “ensure exceptionally clear calls,” even in noisy environments.</li>



<li><strong>An ultra-sleek, ergonomic blade design </strong>refined through hundreds of millions of global ear data points and over 10,000 simulations, featuring a premium metal finish, engraved pinch controls, and an IP57 rating for water and dust resistance.<sup data-fn="89c45d71-f28b-4b9a-bdf4-f538748f1660" class="fn"><a href="#89c45d71-f28b-4b9a-bdf4-f538748f1660" id="89c45d71-f28b-4b9a-bdf4-f538748f1660-link">1</a></sup></li>

<p>Samsung Electronics’ Board of Directors convened today and approved a shareholder return plan for 2026, estimated at approximately KRW 90 trillion to KRW 110 trillion.</p>



<p>This is approximately five times the size of the previous record of KRW 20.3 trillion, set in 2020 and marks the largest ever by a Korean company.</p>



<p>The record-breaking shareholder return is intended to ensure that the Company’s growth translates into tangible benefits for shareholders, fostering a virtuous cycle in which corporate growth and shareholder value creation reinforce each other.</p>



<p>In addition, Samsung is faithfully implementing its three-year shareholder return policy (2024–2026), which commits to allocating 50% of its free cash flow (FCF) to shareholder returns.</p>



<p>From 2024 to 2025, Samsung paid out a total of KRW 19.6 trillion in regular dividends, at KRW 9.8 trillion annually. In 2025, the Company also executed a special dividend of KRW 1.3 trillion and a share buyback and cancellation worth KRW 8.4 trillion.</p>



<p>Including the 2026 shareholder return, the total shareholder return for the three-year period (2024–2026) is expected to reach between KRW 120 trillion and KRW 140 trillion.</p>



<p>In the third quarter of 2026, Samsung plans to distribute approximately KRW 30 trillion in cash dividends, including regular dividends, with specific details to be finalized at the October Board meeting.</p>



<p>The remaining shareholder return will be determined at the January Board meeting in 2027, once the 2026 financial performance is confirmed. The plan will include cash dividends and share buybacks/ cancellations. The Board today also approved a share buyback worth about KRW15 trillion for employee compensation.</p>



<p>The share buyback for employee compensation is also expected to contribute to enhancing shareholder value.</p>



<p>Moving forward, the Samsung remains committed to faithfully implementing its shareholder return policy and actively communicating its plans with shareholders and the market.</p>

<p>Samsung Electronics today announced that it has received significant honors at the International Design Excellence Awards (IDEA) 2026 and the Red Dot Design Award 2026. These accolades include one Impact Award, nine Bronze awards, and 35 Finalist recognitions at IDEA along with 12 awards in the Red Dot Design Award Brands & Communication Design category — including one Best of the Best award.</p>



<p>“Design has the power to connect ideas with people and turn them into meaningful experiences,” said Mauro Porcini, President and Chief Design Officer of the Device eXperience (DX) Division at Samsung Electronics. “At Samsung, we will continue to deepen our understanding of people, uncover new possibilities in everyday moments, and create experiences that enrich lives and shape a better future.”</p>



<p><a href="https://www.idsa.org/awards-recognitions/idea/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">IDEA</a> is one of the world’s most prestigious design award programs and was founded by the Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA) in 1980. This year, the organization selected winners across 20 categories, including Home, Consumer Technology, and Digital Interaction. Key evaluation criteria include Design Innovation, Benefit to User, Benefit to Society, and more.</p>



<p>Meanwhile, the Red Dot Design Award is widely recognized as one of the world’s premier design honors. Established in 1955 and organized by German organization Design Zentrum Nordrhein Westfalen, it recognizes excellence across three categories: Product Design, Design Concept, and Brands & Communication Design. Specifically, Red Dot Award: Brands & Communication Design recognizes and celebrates creative approaches that shape how brands communicate and connect with people.</p>



<p>Samsung was recognized by these organizations for expanding its design excellence beyond products to encompass services, brand experiences, and forward-looking design concepts.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>IDEA 2026: 45 Honors, Including One Impact Award</strong></h2>



<p>Samsung’s <strong>Accessibility Design for Home Appliances</strong> received the inaugural <strong>Impact Award </strong>at IDEA 2026. Introduced this year, the award is presented as an additional honor to select winning designs that demonstrate strong sustainability and social impact.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="563" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/21102243/Samsung-Corporate-Design-IDEA-2026-Red-Dot-Design-Award-2026-45-Honors-and-12-Awards_main1_FF.jpg" alt="Samsung’s Accessibility Design for Home Appliances received the inaugural Impact Award at IDEA 2026." class="wp-image-176650" /></figure>



<p>Accessibility Design for Home Appliances considers the diverse needs of users with visual, hearing, mobility, and cognitive differences, helping everyone use home appliances like washers and refrigerators more easily and conveniently. Key features include <strong>Easy Mode</strong>, which simplifies complex functions and provides larger on-screen text and voice guidance, and <strong>Auto Open Door</strong>, which allows users with limited physical strength to open appliance doors with a gentle touch or voice command.</p>



<p>Accessibility settings configured on a mobile device can also be carried over to connected home appliances. <strong>Voice ID</strong> recognizes individual users and automatically applies their personalized settings, as well, allowing multiple users to enjoy a convenient appliance experience tailored to their individual needs and preferences.</p>



<p>Nine Samsung designs were honored with Bronze awards at IDEA 2026 for their innovation in premium appliances, branding, and sustainable design. These honorees include:</p>

<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="563" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/18181348/Samsung-Digital-Appliances-New-Over-the-Range-Microwave-DualVent-Technology_Main1.jpg" alt="An image of ME80H30" class="wp-image-176609" /></figure>



<p>Samsung Electronics today announced its new Over-the-Range Microwave in the U.S. and Canada beginning September 2026. The new model introduces DualVent technology, a ventilation system with air intakes at both the bottom and front of the microwave. Additional features include Auto Connectivity and a fingerprint resistant finish that helps maintain the microwave’s clean appearance.</p>



<p>“Consumers value products that bring together stunning design and practical features that elevate the cooking experience in modern kitchens,” said Hyoung Min Park, VP and Head of Customer Experience Team of the Digital Appliances (DA) Business at Samsung Electronics. “The new Samsung Over-the-Range Microwave with DualVent technology brings powerful ventilation and convenient cooking features into one practical form factor, which saves space and makes a style statement.”</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Two Air Intakes To Help Capture Cooking Fumes</strong><sup data-fn="db39393c-177b-4853-ba58-30fda09129d3" class="fn"><a href="#db39393c-177b-4853-ba58-30fda09129d3" id="db39393c-177b-4853-ba58-30fda09129d3-link">1</a></sup></h2>



<p>DualVent technology uses two air intakes placed at the bottom and front of the microwave to help capture fumes from across the cooktop below. The front intake provides additional coverage for the front burners consumers use most, while the bottom intake helps capture fumes from the rest of the cooktop.</p>



<p>By capturing fumes from all burners, DualVent technology achieves a fume capture rate of up to 82%, delivering ventilation performance comparable to standalone hoods from Samsung under the same test conditions. This allows consumers to enjoy powerful ventilation while preserving the space-saving benefits of the form factor.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="563" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/18181536/Samsung-Digital-Appliances-New-Over-the-Range-Microwave-DualVent-Technology_Main2.jpg" alt="An image of DualVent Technology" class="wp-image-176610" /></figure>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Convenient Ventilation With Automatic Controls</strong></h2>



<p>Extra vents often need to be pushed or pulled to be used, but that is not the case with Samsung’s DualVent, which is activated with just a single tap on the LED-lit controls menu. When tapped, the newly designed front blades open seamlessly to support powerful dual-intake performance. Then, the blades close automatically when ventilation is turned off, with no manual flipping or pushing required.</p>



<p>The cooking experience is further simplified by Auto Connectivity, which wirelessly aligns the status of the microwave<sup data-fn="ee513617-8687-4de9-a732-df07fd4a7723" class="fn"><a href="#ee513617-8687-4de9-a732-df07fd4a7723" id="ee513617-8687-4de9-a732-df07fd4a7723-link">2</a></sup> with compatible Samsung cooktops or range ovens. With it, users can use the one-touch controls to control both the cooktop and the Over-the-Range Microwave, turning both appliances on and off simultaneously.</p>

<ol class="wp-block-footnotes"><li id="db39393c-177b-4853-ba58-30fda09129d3">82% capture rate from chamber tests conducted at ICE&KS Pre-Development Lab on Feb. 9, 2026 using CO2 tracer method per LBNL (2020), evaluating two intakes and one exhaust vs. standalone hoods under identical conditions. Actual results may vary depending on individual use and circumstances. DualVent requires installation per guidelines.

<p>Samsung Electronics today announced that it will establish a FläktGroup HVAC production line in Korea to target the rapidly growing HVAC market, including the production of advanced cooling solutions for AI data centers.</p>



<p>The company plans to invest approximately KRW 240 billion (USD 158 million) to build a 21,500m<sup>2</sup> HVAC production line at its operations site in Gwangju, Korea. The new production line is scheduled to begin operations upon completion by 2028. It will manufacture HVAC products from FläktGroup, which was acquired by Samsung Electronics <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/samsung-electronics-acquires-leading-global-hvac-solutions-provider-flaktgroup" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">last year.</a></p>



<p>“Samsung’s acquisition of FläktGroup last year puts us in a unique position to expand the HVAC business and transform it into a new growth engine, to become a global top-tier company by 2030,” said Cheolgi Kim, Executive Vice President and Head of Digital Appliances (DA) Business at Samsung Electronics. “This investment in the new production line in Korea will serve as a solid foundation for achieving this goal.”</p>



<p>FläktGroup recently invested in expanding its manufacturing footprint – which will operate soon – through Project GAGAN, a new production facility in Pune, Maharashtra, India. With a global network of 14 manufacturing facilities, the company actively supplies products across key markets including the U.S., Europe and India.</p>



<p>Together with FläktGroup, Samsung will leverage the establishment of the Gwangju production line, its 15th manufacturing facility worldwide, as a strategic springboard for a full-scale expansion into the Korean market.</p>



<p>Samsung plans to supply HVAC facilities and infrastructure across various industrial sectors in Korea, with a particular emphasis on the surge in demand for AI data centers. To achieve this, the company will produce advanced HVAC products, including the production of advanced cooling solutions for AI data centers.</p>



<p>David Dorney, CEO of FläktGroup, said, “By combining Samsung’s AI expertise with FläktGroup’s HVAC product capabilities, we will be positioned to become an HVAC partner of choice in Korea and across Asia.”</p>

<p>Samsung Electronics today announced that its Galaxy Buds <strong>Hearing Aid</strong> feature has received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance. The feature enables compatible Galaxy Buds<sup data-fn="4a0959d9-20d3-47a9-a213-c7c7df560085" class="fn"><a href="#4a0959d9-20d3-47a9-a213-c7c7df560085" id="4a0959d9-20d3-47a9-a213-c7c7df560085-link">1</a></sup> to serve as an over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aid,<sup data-fn="ab550802-908c-4d66-98af-9cf8a96f4b60" class="fn"><a href="#ab550802-908c-4d66-98af-9cf8a96f4b60" id="ab550802-908c-4d66-98af-9cf8a96f4b60-link">2</a></sup> offering users 18 years and older a convenient solution for addressing perceived mild to moderate hearing loss — which may be indicated by difficulty following conversations in noisy environments — without a prescription or clinic visit. Users can also diagnose their hearing with the Galaxy Buds <strong>Hearing Test</strong> feature, which is registered as a Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) and provides medical-grade results.</p>



<p>“Hearing health is a vital component of our overall well-being, profoundly impacting how we communicate, connect with loved ones and engage with the world,” said Hon Pak, Senior Vice President and Head of the Digital Health Team for the Mobile eXperience (MX) Business at Samsung Electronics. “With the latest clearance from the FDA, we are expanding access to hearing support and making proactive care effortless by integrating the Hearing Test and Hearing Aid functionality directly into the Galaxy Buds.”</p>



<p>Hearing loss is incredibly common, yet it remains one of the most overlooked health conditions worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that globally, more than 1.5 billion people experience some degree of hearing loss — a figure projected to reach 2.5 billion people by 2050. Despite this, many people who could benefit from hearing aids do not use them due to high cost, social stigma or limited access to professional care.</p>



<p>Samsung has been committed to advancing hearing support technologies for consumers since 2020. That year, the company introduced a Personal Sound Amplification Product (PSAP) feature on Galaxy Buds+.</p>



<p>The PSAP feature was clinically validated in 2021 as effective support for daily communication for those with hearing loss, building the foundation for the Hearing Aid feature. To develop this new OTC solution, Samsung collaborated closely with the National Acoustic Laboratories (NAL) and Samsung Medical Center (SMC). The resulting technology is backed by robust clinical validation studies conducted at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, San Jose State University and the University of Memphis.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="667" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/10105731/Samsung-Mobile-Samsung-Hearing-Aid-Feature-Galaxy-Buds-FDA_main1.jpg" alt="By navigating to the Galaxy Buds menu in Settings, users can complete a self-administered Hearing Test in just five minutes." class="wp-image-176281" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">▲ Example of a Hearing Test result</figcaption></figure>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="667" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/10105810/Samsung-Mobile-Samsung-Hearing-Aid-Feature-Galaxy-Buds-FDA_main2.jpg" alt="Based on those results, the Hearing Aid feature amplifies the sounds users have difficulty hearing." class="wp-image-176282" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">▲ Hearing Aid settings screen</figcaption></figure>



<p>Samsung’s holistic hearing health experience centers around two major features integrated directly into Galaxy Buds without requiring a separate app.<sup data-fn="2bc4773d-223c-4d41-8a28-28641e6d5d38" class="fn"><a href="#2bc4773d-223c-4d41-8a28-28641e6d5d38" id="2bc4773d-223c-4d41-8a28-28641e6d5d38-link">3</a></sup> By navigating to the Galaxy Buds menu in Settings, users can complete a self-administered <strong>Hearing Test</strong> in just five minutes. Using clinical-grade, pure-tone audiometry, the software tests each ear individually to pinpoint the user’s specific hearing deficits. It then generates an audiogram with accuracy comparable to a professional audiologist’s evaluation. The results categorize the user’s hearing as normal or one of four stages of hearing loss: mild, moderate, severe or profound.</p>



<p>Based on those results, the <strong>Hearing Aid </strong>feature amplifies the sounds users have difficulty hearing — such as high frequencies, surrounding whispers and distant voices — personalized to each user’s hearing profile. Hearing Aid also supports additional advanced features typically found in premium hearing aids, such as noise elimination and beamforming, which help focus sounds in front of the user and suppress background noise.</p>



<p>Galaxy Buds use NAL-NL2, recognized globally as the clinical standard formula for fitting prescription hearing aid. This advanced approach ensures highly personalized, accurate results tailored to each individual’s hearing profile.</p>



<p>To give users a comprehensive view of their overall wellness, hearing-related insights — including noise exposure levels and Hearing Test results — are accessible directly within the Samsung Health app.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Availability</strong></h2>



<p>The Hearing Aid and Hearing Test features will be available on Galaxy Buds3 Pro and Galaxy Buds4 Pro in the U.S. and select approved markets in Q4 2026.</p>

<p>As the world’s largest gaming event, Gamescom features approximately 1,500 software, hardware and game content companies. The event attracted 360,000 visitors last year and this year, it is convening under the theme, “Games Spark Excitement for the Future.”</p>



<p>Under the slogan “#PlaySamsung,” Samsung will showcase a range of products packed with innovative features and offer visitors the chance to experience innovative gaming across mobile, PC and console platforms. At the company’s exhibition booth, visitors can experience games across a variety of platforms through its key new products: Odyssey G8, the world’s first 6K gaming monitor; 9100 PRO, a high-performance SSD built for next-generation gaming; and Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, the flagship mobile device that takes mobile gaming to the next level.</p>



<p>Notably, the Odyssey G8, launched in May 2026, provides an optimal gaming experience with its Dual Mode to effortlessly toggle between an ultra-high resolution 6K mode at 165 Hz and an ultra-fast 3K mode at 330 Hz, depending on the game genre.

<p><strong>Samsung Electronics </strong>today announced that the new Galaxy Z series and Galaxy Watch lineup are beginning to roll out worldwide. Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, Fold8, Flip8, Watch Ultra2 and Watch9 are available through carriers, retailers, Samsung.com and Samsung Experience Stores, with sales beginning Aug 7 in select markets and expanding globally.</p>



<p>Strong early demand reflects growing excitement for Samsung’s latest Galaxy Z series, with pre-orders for the new lineup having increased by more than <strong>30%</strong> compared with the previous generation. <strong>Graphite</strong> was the most popular color overall for Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra and Galaxy Z Fold8, while <strong>Pink</strong> led pre-orders for Galaxy Z Flip8. Among Samsung.com pre-order customers aged 15 to 34, exclusive colors <strong>Green Shadow, Pistachio and Mint</strong> emerged as the top choices for Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, Fold8 and Flip8, respectively.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="750" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/05172649/Samsung-Mobile-Launches-Galaxy-Z-Fold8-Ultra-Fold8-Flip8-Watch-Ultra2-Watch9_Main1.jpg" alt="An image of Galaxy Z Fold8, Z Fold8 Ultra, Z Flip8, Galaxy Watch9 and Galaxy Watch Ultra2" class="wp-image-176168" /></figure>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>The New Galaxy Z Series: Three Distinct Foldable Experiences</strong></h2>



<p>Built on seven generations of foldable innovation and consumer insight, the new Galaxy Z series gives users more choice than ever, with three distinct experiences engineered to fit different needs.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" width="768" height="1024" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/05172658/Samsung-Mobile-Launches-Galaxy-Z-Fold8-Ultra-Fold8-Flip8-Watch-Ultra2-Watch9_Main2-768x1024.jpg" alt="An image of Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, Z Fold8 and Z Flip8" class="wp-image-176169" /></figure>



<p>Galaxy Z Fold8 introduces a fresh form factor built around the way people explore, discover and immerse themselves in their favorite content. Its display ratios are designed to move naturally with users throughout the day – from quick interactions like messaging, browsing and short-form video on the <strong>wider cover screen</strong> to more immersive viewing, reading and gaming on the <strong>4:3 main display</strong>. With Gemini Notebook, users can bring together notes, images, recordings, files and documents in one workspace to collect, organize and develop their ideas. At just 201 g, it is Samsung’s lightest Galaxy Z Fold yet, while Samsung’s new <strong>Flex Titanium</strong> technology helps support a slimmer display structure with lasting durability and reduced crease visibility over time.</p>



<p>Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra brings Galaxy’s renowned Ultra standard to foldables, combining a larger workspace with an upgraded camera system and performance built for demanding creative workflows. Its expansive 8-inch main display opens up more room for multitasking, while <strong>Now Nudge</strong><sup data-fn="762e46f2-631b-4b7d-a150-60a84e513524" class="fn"><a href="#762e46f2-631b-4b7d-a150-60a84e513524" id="762e46f2-631b-4b7d-a150-60a84e513524-link">1</a></sup> helps users move from conversation to action by suggesting relevant next steps across supported apps.</p>



<p>The <strong>200 MP main camera</strong> now supports <strong>High Dynamic Range (HDR)</strong> in 200 MP mode for richer detail, color and clarity. A new 50 MP ultra-wide camera adds greater flexibility for wider scenes and macro shots, helping users capture more from one device. Across Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, Galaxy Z Fold8 and Galaxy Z Flip8, Dual Recording captures both the action and the user’s reaction, while My FanCam<sup data-fn="2eb75f32-99f5-406e-a14c-013a807f6288" class="fn"><a href="#2eb75f32-99f5-406e-a14c-013a807f6288" id="2eb75f32-99f5-406e-a14c-013a807f6288-link">2</a></sup> automatically tracks and reframes a selected subject.</p>



<p>Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra also features a <strong>5,000 mAh battery,</strong><sup data-fn="b8c8d2d1-4f5d-4ce9-b4b7-392b7a1c9272" class="fn"><a href="#b8c8d2d1-4f5d-4ce9-b4b7-392b7a1c9272" id="b8c8d2d1-4f5d-4ce9-b4b7-392b7a1c9272-link">3</a></sup><strong> </strong>45 W fast charging and an expanded graphite cooling structure – all in Galaxy’s slimmest Z Fold design yet, measuring just 4.1 mm when unfolded and weighing 215 g.</p>



<p>Galaxy Z Flip8, Samsung’s sleekest Flip ever released, is built for expression and quick interaction on the go. Its reimagined <strong>FlexWindow</strong> brings apps, insights, actions and assistance directly to the cover screen. <strong>Now Brief</strong><sup data-fn="04ba0869-b825-46fd-a189-ec1f566c8644" class="fn"><a href="#04ba0869-b825-46fd-a189-ec1f566c8644" id="04ba0869-b825-46fd-a189-ec1f566c8644-link">4</a></sup> surfaces personalized information based on users’ schedules, routines and interests. Users can also access Gemini from the <strong>FlexWindow</strong> through side-key activation or natural voice requests, making it easier to complete connected actions on the go. Galaxy Z Flip8 further enhances Samsung’s signature Flip camera experience with a 50 MP camera, ProVisual Engine and FlexCam experiences that make it easier to capture, preview and share polished photos and videos from flexible angles.</p>

<p>A next-generation interface system incorporating zHBM is expected to deliver approximately eight times the performance of HBM5. With next-generation wafer bonding technology, zHBM can achieve more than 10 times the memory density of HBM5 while enhancing energy efficiency threefold and reducing thermal resistance by more than half, maximizing the stability and power efficiency of high-capacity, high-bandwidth systems.</p>



<p>zHBM also supports customer-specific designs, enabling customized IP to be integrated into the interlayer between the memory and AI accelerator to expand memory capacity and enhance accelerator performance.</p>



<p>Building on close collaboration with customers, Samsung plans to further optimize the integration of AI processors and memory through zHBM to maximize AI system performance.</p>



<p>The company also introduced zNAND-O, a next-generation high-performance NAND solution built on its V-NAND technology and in development in four- and eight-layer versions. By combining high space efficiency, improved I/O performance and low latency, zNAND-O is optimized for edge AI environments supporting real-time, data-intensive AI applications.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Industry-First V10 BV-NAND</strong></h2>



<p>Samsung unveiled V10 BV-NAND, featuring its new Bonding V-NAND architecture. The announcement comes 13 years after the company introduced the industry’s first V-NAND technology at the 2013 Flash Memory Summit, marking another milestone in the company’s NAND innovation.</p>



<p>With more than 400 layers, V10 BV-NAND delivers higher performance and power efficiency while significantly increasing storage density. By applying wafer bonding technology to stack memory cells, Samsung has increased memory density by approximately 58% over the previous generation (V9).</p>



<p>Beyond the increased layer count, V10 BV-NAND also improves read, write and I/O performance over the previous generation, supporting high-performance, high-capacity NAND for future AI systems and applications.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>AI Memory Roadmap from HBM to PIM and Enterprise Storage</strong></h2>



<p>Samsung also presented its latest AI memory and storage portfolio — including HBM4E, HBM5, LPDDR5X-PIM and PM1763 — highlighting its roadmap for next-generation AI computing and data center infrastructure.</p>



<p>Following the industry’s first mass production of HBM4 using its 1c DRAM and 4-nanometer (nm) base die technologies <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/samsung-ships-industry-first-commercial-hbm4-with-ultimate-performance-for-ai-computing" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">in February</a>, Samsung was the first to begin shipping HBM4E samples to global customers <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/samsung-electronics-begins-shipment-of-industry-first-hbm4e-samples" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">in May</a>, reinforcing its leadership in next-generation HBM.</p>



<p>Along with its HBM4E samples and HBM5 model, the company showcased its LPDDR5X-PIM, the industry’s first LPDDR memory with processing-in-memory technology. The new solution is built to perform data processing within the memory itself to improve the efficiency of both data movement and power.</p>



<p>The exhibition also featured Samsung’s latest enterprise storage solutions — including PM1763 and BM1773 — designed to meet the growing storage demands of AI data centers.</p>



<p></p>

<p>Samsung Electronics today announced that Prime Video will be the first streaming service to offer <strong>HDR10+ ADVANCED</strong><sup data-fn="53dc1881-cfeb-48ab-bc5e-b0878ceb3a94" class="fn"><a href="#53dc1881-cfeb-48ab-bc5e-b0878ceb3a94" id="53dc1881-cfeb-48ab-bc5e-b0878ceb3a94-link">1</a></sup> on supported titles globally beginning August 2026, with the service being first available on Samsung’s 2026 TV lineup. The next-generation High Dynamic Range (HDR) standard — designed to deliver brighter, more immersive picture quality for supported movies and shows — brings the benefits of Enhanced Overall Brightness and Intelligent Motion Smoothing to streaming viewers for the first time.</p>



<p>“As home viewing options become more diverse, users are prioritizing elite viewing standards and greater levels of immersion,” said Taeyong Son, Executive Vice President of Visual Display (VD) Business at Samsung Electronics. “By collaborating with Prime Video, we are bringing HDR10+ ADVANCED to home entertainment systems for the first time, we are elevating the home viewing experience all over the world.”</p>



<p>HDR10+ ADVANCED is the next evolution of the HDR10+ standard and is specifically designed to empower today’s most advanced televisions — which have achieved ever larger screen sizes, higher peak brightness, greater color depth and increased processing power — while satisfying the requirements of leading content distribution services. The standard preserves the creator’s intent across compatible displays while delivering a more dynamic, lifelike viewing experience for supported content.</p>



<p>It also introduces two powerful capabilities for customers. Enhanced Overall Brightness uses extended statistical metadata to make fuller use of today’s premium TV brightness capabilities, delivering brighter, more precise HDR across the full tonal range. Additionally, AI-driven tone mapping preserves shadow detail in darker scenes and delivers the heightened brightness that sports and action content demands.</p>



<p>Meanwhile, Intelligent Motion Smoothing utilizes scene-by-scene metadata to allow compatible displays to dynamically adjust motion processing — preserving the cinematic feel of film content while delivering smooth, natural motion for sports, action and other fast-moving scenes.</p>

<p>Samsung Electronics today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.</p>



<p>The Company posted KRW 171.5 trillion in consolidated revenue, another all-time quarterly high, representing a quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) increase of 28%. Operating profit also reached another all-time high, increasing to KRW 89.5 trillion. Earnings per share for both common and preferred shares increased by 52% to KRW 10,849, among the highest levels for global tech companies.</p>



<p>The Device Solutions (DS) Division posted a QoQ sales increase of 56%, with the Memory Business setting an all-time high for quarterly revenue and operating profit.</p>



<p>The Device eXperience (DX) Division posted a QoQ sales decrease of 9%.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>DS To Maintain Growth Momentum While Advancing Technology Leadership</strong></h2>



<p>The DS Division posted KRW 127.5 trillion in consolidated revenue and KRW 89.2 trillion in operating profit for the second quarter.</p>



<p>The Memory Business achieved another record-breaking quarter by proactively addressing AI demand despite limited capacity with a primary focus on server products. The continued industry-wide upward trend of prices also contributed to the record earnings.</p>



<p>Additionally, the Business solidified market competitiveness via industry-leading products, with server revenue achieving a record-high share of the sales mix. The Business scaled up HBM4 sales with industry-leading performance and further strengthened technology competitiveness by shipping the industry’s first HBM4E samples to major customers.</p>



<p>In H2 2026, the Memory Business expects robust demand centered on servers stemming from continued AI infrastructure capex and broader adoption of agentic AI. Meanwhile, growth in demand for server DRAM, eSSDs, and HBM is expected to accelerate. This is projected to keep the market undersupplied, despite partial demand moderation in mobile and PCs.</p>



<p>The Memory Business also plans to continue setting the pace for the market via technology leadership, seeking to optimize its portfolio in consideration of changes in demand by application and according to customer feedback. Despite efforts to increase production, supply constraints are expected to continue.</p>



<p>The Business also plans to lead the market by addressing strong demand with a focus on high-value-added products, such as HBM4, DDR5, SOCAMM2 and others, while extending its leadership into next-generation AI platforms. This follows the industry’s first HBM4E sample shipment, as well as the H1 2026 market penetration of PCIe Gen6 and UFS 5.0 solutions.</p>



<p>The System LSI Business was impacted by flagship seasonality and soft mobile demand in China, yet managed to sustain quarterly revenue through expanded sales of high-volume mobile SoCs and image sensors, driving first-half revenue to a record high. It secured orders for a next-generation flagship SoC and continued to build momentum on the back of new business from major customers.<br><br>In H2 2026, the Business expects rising component costs and soft consumer demand to persist. However, it will continue to drive sales of next-generation flagship SoCs while seeking new business for custom SoCs, while also aiming to strengthen its competitiveness in sensors and LSI products.</p>



<p>Earnings for the Foundry Business improved significantly prior to incentive-related provisions, driven by HBM base-die demand and strong orders from customers in the U.S. Design wins with major customers continued to expand, with 2nm HPC engagements as a notable example.</p>



<p>Looking ahead to H2 2026, the Foundry Business plans to ramp up production of new mobile products based on the second-generation 2nm process and expand sales of LPU and base-die products based on the 4nm process. Amid rising demand across all process nodes from customers in the U.S. and China, the Business is targeting double-digit revenue growth. Additionally, the Business will deliver mid-to-long-term growth via advanced nodes and the expansion of AI and HPC design wins.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>SDC To Drive Growth Through Differentiated Display Technologies</strong></h2>



<p>Samsung Display Corporation (SDC) posted KRW 7.5 trillion in consolidated revenue and KRW 0.7 trillion in operating profit for the second quarter.</p>



<p>For the small and medium display business, SDC reported an improvement in earnings based on solid demand for high-end mobile OLED products, while its large display business expanded sales volume and revenue on the growth of the gaming monitor market.</p>



<p>In H2 2026, SDC plans to focus on addressing premium smartphone demand with low-power products and diversified form factors. It will also pursue revenue growth through timely mass production of the 8.6G IT OLED line, as it seeks to expand supply of differentiated products to the tablet, gaming, and automotive markets. The large display business will focus on driving sales growth with an expanded gaming monitor customer base and strengthened product lineup.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>MX To Expand Flagship-Led Sales With Competitiveness of New Products</strong></h2>



<p>The MX and Networks Businesses posted KRW 33.2 trillion in consolidated revenue and reported an operating loss of KRW 0.7 trillion for the second quarter. While revenue grew year-on-year (YoY) on solid sales of the Galaxy S26 series and strong Galaxy A series momentum, earnings declined due to elevated component cost pressures across the industry.</p>



<p>In H2 2026, the MX Business plans to strengthen AI leadership through personalized and intuitive experiences and drive overall market share growth based on flagship-first expansion centered on the new Galaxy Z8 and S26 series. The Business will also seek to enhance its premium mix across the Galaxy ecosystem and deliver AI-driven experiences in new form factors with the launch of its Intelligent Eyewear. Additionally, it will pursue efficiency initiatives to mitigate the impact of rising costs.</p>



<p>In Q2 2026, the Networks Business reported an improvement in earnings QoQ and YoY, supported by overseas sales expansion. In H2 2026, the Business aims to secure profitability through new orders and structural cost discipline amid telco investment headwinds.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>CE Business and Harman To Further Differentiate Product Offerings Through Innovation</strong></h2>



<p>The Visual Display (VD) and Digital Appliances (DA) Businesses posted KRW 14.5 trillion in consolidated revenue, and recorded a slight operating loss for the second quarter.</p>



<p>The VD Business saw revenue and earnings increase YoY as a result of high demand from major sporting events. However, earnings declined QoQ due to increased costs.</p>



<p>In H2 2026, the VD Business will lead the AI TV market with differentiated customer experiences based on Vision AI while capturing seasonal demand through strengthened channel partnerships. The Business will also enhance TV market leadership and profitability by growing its service business through the diversification of its Samsung TV Plus content and expansion of its advertising business.</p>



<p>Meanwhile, the DA Business experienced revenue growth from increased air conditioner demand, despite cost pressures weighing on earnings. In H2 2026, the Business aims to strengthen market leadership through the expansion of AI-based product sales while pursuing profitability-driven channel diversification and enhanced product competitiveness.</p>



<p>Harman posted improved earnings on expanded automotive segment sales, as well as strong audio sales led by portable products. In H2 2026, it will seek to address demand in high-growth automotive segments, including the central compute unit. It will also expand audio sales based on an enhanced lineup and brand awareness, while maintaining stable growth momentum through revenue expansion across the automotive and audio businesses.</p>

<p><strong>Samsung Electronics</strong> today unveiled the new Galaxy Z series, its most complete lineup yet, designed to expand foldables to a wider audience. The lineup introduces Galaxy Z Fold8, a fresh and exciting form factor that provides a new kind of foldable experience built around the way people explore, discover and immerse themselves in their favorite content.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="667" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/22215435/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Unpacked-July-2026-Galaxy-Z-Fold8-Ultra-Galaxy-Z-Fold8-Galaxy-Z-Flip8-Launch_main1_F.jpg" alt="Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, Fold8 and Flip8 open a new chapter in foldables with three distinct experiences designed for Ultra productivity, immersive discovery and self-expression." class="wp-image-175769" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">▲ Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, Fold8 and Flip8 open a new chapter in foldables with three distinct experiences designed for Ultra productivity, immersive discovery and self-expression.</figcaption></figure>



<p>The lineup also includes Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, which brings Galaxy’s renowned Ultra standard to foldables with maximum productivity and content creation in a larger workspace. Galaxy Z Flip8 — the sleekest one yet — was built for expression and quick interaction on the go. Built on seven generations of foldable innovation and consumer insight, the new Galaxy Z series gives users more choice than ever, with three distinct experiences engineered to fit different needs.</p>



<p>Galaxy AI has been optimized for each of these form factors. Across the lineup, every insight feels more actionable and every action feels more connected. Multitasking is easier on the larger screens of Galaxy Z Fold8 and Fold8 Ultra, while Flip8’s AI-native FlexWindow keeps relevant information and shortcuts within reach. And with partner AI experiences such as Gemini Intelligence, Galaxy gives users even more ways to get things done in fewer steps — with transparency, privacy and user control built in.</p>



<p>“As AI becomes more agentic, mobile devices will become the most personal entry point to experiences that understand and adapt to each user,” said TM Roh, Chief Executive Officer, President and Head of the Device eXperience (DX) Division at Samsung Electronics. “By setting a new standard for foldables, we are once again advancing the premium mobile experience and opening the next era of intelligence to more people.”</p>

When plans begin to take shape in a conversation, AI can surface relevant next steps such as checking a schedule, finding a place or saving a location. On foldables, users can continue the conversation side by side on larger displays.</li>



<li><strong>Gemini Intelligence</strong> helps users move from request to result with fewer steps. Users can simply describe what they need or even add screen or image context. App automation can now work across more than 40 supported apps and services, with capabilities ranging from looking up tickets to finding a nearby restaurant and making a reservation. With <strong>Gemini Notebook</strong>, users can bring together notes, images, recordings, files and documents in one persistent workspace to collect, organize and develop their ideas. Drag-and-drop support in Split view makes the workflow even more intuitive, allowing users to easily add multiple files and images and turn their content into audio overviews, infographics, reports, meeting recaps, visual summaries, documents and more.</li>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Security and Privacy Built Into the Experience</strong></h2>



<p>As AI becomes more personal and agentic, trust continues to be a critical foundation of the experience. Users need to know how their data is used, understand what AI is doing on their behalf and stay in control of the choices that shape their experience. With the new Galaxy Z series, Samsung builds that trust into the device from the start, keeping personal data secure while giving users transparency, choice and control over how their information is used.</p>



<p>Samsung Knox protects every Galaxy device from the chip up, with a multi-layered approach that includes on-device personalization and user-controlled cloud processing, as well as future-ready protections such as ecosystem-wide protection through Samsung Knox Matrix. For on-device AI, Personal Data Engine (PDE) enables context-aware, personalized AI experiences. To protect PDE, <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/your-privacy-secured-inside-the-tech-powering-safe-personalized-galaxy-ai-experiences" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Knox Enhanced Encrypted Protection (KEEP)</a> creates encrypted, app-specific storage environments, while <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/your-privacy-secured-how-galaxy-ai-protects-privacy-with-samsung-knox-vault" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Knox Vault</a> adds a tamper-resistant physical layer for sensitive information.<sup data-fn="ed929a94-ab98-4781-a22e-2920e4a37d8c" class="fn"><a href="#ed929a94-ab98-4781-a22e-2920e4a37d8c" id="ed929a94-ab98-4781-a22e-2920e4a37d8c-link">24</a></sup> These system-level protections work together with Advanced Intelligence settings and Personal Data Intelligence to help users <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/your-privacy-secured-how-galaxy-ai-empowers-you-to-take-control-of-your-data" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">control how AI features manage and use personal data</a>.</p>



<p>One UI 9 also introduces a new AI Assistant Activity dashboard, giving users a centralized view of AI automations running on their behalf. Instead of moving across multiple apps and services to understand what happened, users can review AI actions in one place and navigate directly to the relevant agent<sup data-fn="67bf2c4d-2e7a-42a2-9405-5892b6709cc6" class="fn"><a href="#67bf2c4d-2e7a-42a2-9405-5892b6709cc6" id="67bf2c4d-2e7a-42a2-9405-5892b6709cc6-link">25</a></sup> for additional context and settings. The new Galaxy Z series also brings enhanced Privacy Alerts that proactively notify users about potential privacy risks, including unnecessary attempts to access background permissions, helping them respond before those risks become invisible.</p>



<p>These updates build on Galaxy’s existing security and privacy portfolio which includes Auto Blocker, Theft Protection, Private Sharing, Secure Wi-Fi and more. Together, these advancements help users take a more active role in managing personal data and AI activities, with transparency, clearer choices and stronger protections at the core of their experience — helping ensure that more personal AI experiences remain grounded in trust.</p>

<p>Samsung Electronics today introduced its intelligent eyewear at Galaxy Unpacked in London. Building on the concepts announced at the latest Google I/O, the new designs were developed with global eyewear brands, Gentle Monster and Warby Parker. The intelligent eyewear shows how the Galaxy ecosystem can move beyond the mobile phone and into eyewear that supports daily routines, work, travel and hands-free moments.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>What’s New:</strong></h2>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Designed for everyday use, the eyewear pairs a lightweight frame and slim profile with the durability and comfort needed for daily wear.</li>



<li>Developed in collaboration with Gentle Monster and Warby Parker, the eyewear reflects each brand’s expertise in design, offering a range of frame styles, colors and lens options to suit different preferences and lifestyles.</li>
</ul>



<p>“As agentic AI reshapes mobile experiences, the next step is to make those experiences more intuitive and responsive to each user’s context,” said Won-Joon Choi, Chief Operating Officer of the Mobile eXperience (MX) Business at Samsung Electronics. “Intelligent eyewear creates a new point of interaction, bringing more personalized AI assistance naturally into the moments that make up everyday life.”</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="280" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/22213356/Samsung-Mobile-Galaxy-Unpacked-July-2026-Intelligent-Eyewear-Launch_main1.jpg" alt="Building on the concepts announced at the latest Google I/O, the new designs were developed with global eyewear brands, Gentle Monster and Warby Parker." class="wp-image-175734" /></figure>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Why It Matters</strong></h2>



<p>As AI enters an agentic era, the question is no longer only how intelligent it becomes, but where and how that intelligence meets people. Mobile phones remain at the center of connected experiences, while devices across the Galaxy ecosystem add context to different moments of daily life. Intelligent eyewear represents that next step, bringing AI closer to people as they move, work, communicate and explore, without requiring every interaction to begin with a screen.</p>



<p>Built for these moments, intelligent eyewear brings AI directly into the user’s line of sight, providing timely information and assistance while allowing them to stay engaged with the people, places and tasks around them. Clear controls and safeguards support responsible and secure use, while hands-free access delivers assistance naturally without requiring users to stop what they are doing or turn to another screen.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>New Intelligent Eyewear Experience</strong></h2>



<p>Designed for everyday wear, the eyewear combines a lightweight frame, slim profile and battery performance, offering up to nine hours on a single charge with up to seven additional full charges from the charging case.<sup data-fn="c8265e1c-fd48-45f1-92ee-4cdc4570c950" class="fn"><a href="#c8265e1c-fd48-45f1-92ee-4cdc4570c950" id="c8265e1c-fd48-45f1-92ee-4cdc4570c950-link">1</a></sup> A built-in camera brings visual context into the AI experience, while Snapdragon<sup>®</sup> AR1 Gen1<sup data-fn="74a320d8-765e-4713-b202-b88dce3f388f" class="fn"><a href="#74a320d8-765e-4713-b202-b88dce3f388f" id="74a320d8-765e-4713-b202-b88dce3f388f-link">2</a></sup> Platform supports the AI performance designed for real-time assistance, with touch interaction, connectivity, power efficiency and thermal management optimized within the eyewear’s compact frame.</p>



<p>As a hands-free extension of the Galaxy experience, the device lets users stay focused on the moment. Built in partnership with Google, it brings Gemini into a familiar wearable form factor, making interaction feel more natural, immediate and intuitive.</p>



<p>“Google and Samsung have a shared vision to bring helpful and context-aware intelligence into everyday life,” said Sameer Samat, President of Android Ecosystem at Google. “Built on the Android XR platform, the intelligent eyewear blends world-class designs with Gemini’s advanced assistance that naturally responds to what you see, delivering all-day, hands-free help. We’re excited to continue this momentum and bring this experience to people soon.”</p>



<p>Key experiences include:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Staying in the moment:</strong> The device can help summarize long messages, read key information aloud, support live translation and allow users to control the experience with simple voice or gesture interactions through connected devices.<sup data-fn="fc0a2a1b-8e8f-490e-9748-fdc585db76d5" class="fn"><a href="#fc0a2a1b-8e8f-490e-9748-fdc585db76d5" id="fc0a2a1b-8e8f-490e-9748-fdc585db76d5-link">3</a></sup></li>



<li><strong>Capturing context:</strong> When prompted, the eyewear can capture what the user is seeing, such as a whiteboard or meeting discussion, organize key information in Notes and make it easier to review, share and follow-up on later.<sup data-fn="398d65a6-f9b9-44b9-af19-2caa670df1fc" class="fn"><a href="#398d65a6-f9b9-44b9-af19-2caa670df1fc" id="398d65a6-f9b9-44b9-af19-2caa670df1fc-link">4</a></sup></li>



<li><strong>Real-time interaction:</strong> Users can ask for guidance based on their location, such as finding a route, setting a destination or understanding what is around them, while live translation can support communication in another language.<sup data-fn="fdeba69e-cafd-4949-b997-3dc01aa89dae" class="fn"><a href="#fdeba69e-cafd-4949-b997-3dc01aa89dae" id="fdeba69e-cafd-4949-b997-3dc01aa89dae-link">5</a></sup></li>



<li><strong>Context-aware assistance:</strong> The device can support more useful follow-up interactions by understanding the user’s current context and connecting relevant information across tasks, helping users continue where they left off with less repetition.<sup data-fn="e58b507f-2af9-4435-83f3-655fa4f54d13" class="fn"><a href="#e58b507f-2af9-4435-83f3-655fa4f54d13" id="e58b507f-2af9-4435-83f3-655fa4f54d13-link">6</a></sup></li>



<li><strong>Live visual sharing:</strong> Users can share what they are seeing during a call or record their own point of view, making communication more immediate while keeping their hands free.<sup data-fn="3dbf37f8-30b0-4272-bf04-df17eedcc835" class="fn"><a href="#3dbf37f8-30b0-4272-bf04-df17eedcc835" id="3dbf37f8-30b0-4272-bf04-df17eedcc835-link">7</a></sup></li>
</ul>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>A More Personal Approach to Eyewear</strong></h2>



<p>Eyewear is both a functional product and a personal style statement. Samsung worked with Gentle Monster and Warby Parker to create intelligent eyewear that balances thoughtful design, comfort and everyday wearability. By combining Samsung’s hardware craftsmanship with each brand’s distinctive design approach, the collaboration offers a broader range of styles to suit different preferences, lifestyles and occasions.</p>



<p>At the Unpacked, Samsung introduced two distinct designs by: Gentle Monster and Warby Parker.</p>



<p>The Gentle Monster edition features a slim frame in black, pairing a straight upper rim with softly rounded lower edges to create a refined and fashion-forward silhouette. The Warby Parker style features a subtly upswept brow line in a rich brown hue, creating a refined, versatile shape perfect for everyday settings. </p>



<p>Throughout the design process, Samsung worked closely with the eyewear partners to refine key fit points such as the forehead and ears. These insights helped shape the final designs with enhanced comfort and everyday wearability. Fit considerations were tailored to each model, alongside durability and reliable performance.</p>

<p>The collection features some of the Louvre’s most celebrated masterpieces, including Eugène Delacroix’s “Liberty Leading the People,” Paolo Veronese’s “The Wedding Feast at Cana,” and Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres’ “La Grande Odalisque”.

<p>Samsung Electronics today unveiled new Flex Titanium technology for the next generation of Galaxy foldable devices. Built on seven generations of foldable innovation and engineering expertise, the redesigned display structure utilizes structural and material advancements to deliver a more refined viewing experience with enhanced durability and reduced crease visibility. Made possible thanks to Samsung’s accumulated display know-how, Flex Titanium technology integrates two titanium-based components — a titanium-alloy film and a titanium plate — working together to balance slimness, flexibility and strength within the foldable display structure.</p>



<p>“Samsung’s strength in the foldable category comes from connecting user needs with our technologies that deliver tangible benefits in everyday life,” said Sunghoon Moon, EVP and Senior Executive, Mobile R&D Office – H/W, Samsung Electronics. “For the next generation of Galaxy foldables, Samsung is building on years of expertise to bring display innovations into devices that enhance user experiences, anchored by exceptional viewing experiences.”</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Building on Years of Foldable Experience</strong></h2>



<p>Samsung has played a leading role in advancing mobile display innovation and bringing it to consumers at scale through mobile devices. This legacy includes the widespread adoption of AMOLED displays in 2007 and the evolution of displays into flexible form factors.</p>



<p>Innovative technologies can only reach their full potential and provide meaningful user experiences through continuous refinement in real-world conditions and the foldable category is no exception. Across seven generations of Galaxy foldables, Samsung has listened closely to consumer feedback. This has given the company a deep understanding of what users expect from the category: a larger, more immersive viewing experience with less visible crease — without compromising durability or portability.</p>



<p>To meet these expectations, Samsung had to rethink how foldable displays are constructed by bringing together breakthroughs in technology, materials and mechanical engineering. The result is the latest milestone in foldable display innovation: Flex Titanium technology. By successfully integrating display innovation with device engineering, Samsung will continue to shape the direction of the mobile industry and deliver standout user experiences.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Flex Titanium: Next-Level Viewing</h2>



<p>To create a display that provides an immersive viewing experience while maintaining its ability to withstand everyday use, Samsung took a new approach to structural design. This required a material strong enough to withstand external shock, flexible enough to endure repeated folding and thin enough to fit within a refined device structure. Balancing all three factors was essential to advancing foldable displays — and titanium offered the right mix.</p>



<p>Known for its resilience and strength, titanium has been used in some of the most demanding applications, including satellite antennas and the wheels of a Mars rover. While its strength makes titanium a dependable material, it also presents significant engineering challenges when applied to the thin and flexible structure of a foldable display due to its stiffness. Drawing on its expertise, Samsung has integrated titanium into two key components: a titanium-alloy film and a titanium plate.</p>



<p>The titanium-alloy film is a component that supports the display from within, sitting below the OLED panel. Compared with polymer film, it provides 20 times greater mechanical stiffness. A precision rolling process makes the material exceptionally thin — measuring roughly one-third the thickness of an average human hair — enabling a slimmer display panel.</p>



<p>Below this sits a robust titanium plate, a flexible structure that supports the display module from beneath. It allows tighter bonding with the display module by eliminating air gaps between the module and the adhesive on the plate through advanced hole processing technology. This new structure provides more stable support underneath the display when unfolded while retaining the flexibility needed to accommodate repeated folding.</p>



<p>Furthermore, by integrating a high-resolution architecture and next-generation organic materials, the new display delivers ultra-vivid display resolution while reducing power consumption — delivering a dramatic boost in overall power efficiency.</p>



<p>“By introducing sophisticated micro-patterned holes to the folding section of the titanium plate, we have successfully secured flexibility with robust durability,” said Kyung-Jin Yoo, EVP and Head of Mobile Display Product Development Team, Samsung Display. “Combining high-resolution display architecture with new organic materials that maximize power efficiency, we will further strengthen the competitiveness of next-generation Galaxy foldable devices.”</p>



<p>Together, these advancements enable a strong foldable display that maximizes content immersion on a seamless screen and reduces crease visibility — all while keeping it slim. By balancing strength, flexibility and structural stability, Samsung continues to set the bar for foldable displays.</p>



<p>The new Flex Titanium technology will debut with Samsung’s next-generation Galaxy foldable devices. Further details will be unveiled at <a href="https://news.samsung.com/global/invitation-galaxy-unpacked-july-2026-a-new-shape-unfolds" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Galaxy Unpacked</a>.</p>

<p>Samsung Electronics today announced that it has earned a total of eight awards, including Red Dot Award: Design Concept Best of the Best honors for Samsung Home Appliances Accessories<em> </em>and Samsung Kids Robot Dremo & Minimo, at the Red Dot Design Award. The award-winning concepts are AI-powered designs that understand user contexts and preferences, delivering more intuitive and personalized experiences while presenting new possibilities for future lifestyles.</p>



<p>“As technology continues to advance, the more important it becomes to understand people,” said Mauro Porcini, President and Chief Design Officer (CDO) of the Device eXperience (DX) Division at Samsung Electronics. “Guided by our Expressive Design approach, we will continue exploring how technology can better understand each individual, adapt naturally to their needs and inspire more personal and meaningful experiences for the future.”</p>



<p>The Red Dot Design Award is widely recognized as one of the world’s top design honors. Established in 1955 and organized by German organization Design Zentrum Nordrhein Westfalen, the award recognizes excellence across three categories: Product Design, Design Concept and Brands & Communication Design. Specifically, Red Dot Award: Design Concept identifies and celebrates design concepts before they become tomorrow’s leading products.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Two Best of the Best Winners in the Design Concept Category</strong></h2>



<p>The advanced concept design for Samsung Home Appliances Accessories<em> </em>helps users naturally recognize the management and disposal methods of consumables based on their color. Some filters for air purifiers and vacuum cleaners are consumables that require periodic replacement; therefore, Samsung applied a color-coding system corresponding to management type so consumers can easily distinguish disposal and management methods.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="750" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/13173835/Samsung-More-Stories-Red-Dot-Award-Design-Concept_main1.jpg" alt="The advanced concept design for Samsung Home Appliances Accessories" class="wp-image-175544" /></figure>



<p>With semi-permanent parts categorized as gray, recyclable parts as green and general waste as brown, the system proposes a way to intuitively recognize the correct disposal method without separate explanations.</p>



<p>This concept achieved a triple crown at the Global Design Awards, winning the highest award once again — following the <a href="https://bit.ly/4kQji9f" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">iF Design Award 2026 Gold</a> and the <a href="https://bit.ly/47qnRQB" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">IDEA Design Award 2024 Gold</a>.</p>



<p>The advanced concept Samsung Kids Robot Dremo & Minimo is a next-generation kids robot concept that provides personalized experiences for children using AI. Users can create a unique AI character for their child by setting the name, personality and voice. It consists of Dremo, the main robot body used at home, and Minimo, a portable version that ensures connectivity anytime and anywhere. The concept proposes a vision of a futuristic AI companion that grows with the child through interactions tailored to their interests and growth stages.</p>

<li><strong>AI Kitchen:</strong> An AI and robotics-powered kitchen solution concept that reduces the burden of household chores by providing personalized meal recommendations, ingredient management, cooking and dishwashing based on individual data analysis.</li>



<li><strong>Spatial Tab:</strong> A future-ready, glasses-free 3D conversational platform concept that enables realistic interactions and natural eye contact with AI Companions.</li>



<li><strong>AI Home Companion PUCO:</strong> A context-aware AI home companion that delivers assistance and emotional connection by creating personalized spatial experiences through timely projection and subtle non-verbal expressions enabled by its articulated structure.</li>



<li><strong>Fluid AI Design System:</strong> A generative UI concept integrated with AI agents that interprets user interactions and contextual signals in real time to create personalized interfaces tailored to the right time and place.</li>
</ul>

Samsung’s RSO uses its own AI-based prediction model to analyze site environment data automatically and recommend optimized parameters tailored to each individual cell. The RSO is part of the <a href="https://www.samsung.com/global/business/networks/cloud-network/intelligent-autonomous-network/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Samsung CognitiV Network Operations Suite (NOS)</a>, a set of diverse AI-powered network automation solutions, AI agents and intelligent applications.</p>



<p>This trial benefits operators by automatically adjusting to changing conditions across different network scenarios, allowing for reduced manual intervention and greater cost efficiency. For end users, this means faster and more reliable connections whether they are streaming videos, browsing the web or making calls.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="563" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/29170801/Samsung-Network-Solutions-RSO-KDDI_main1.jpg" alt="RSO intro graphic" class="wp-image-175275" /></figure>



<p>“Combining KDDI’s accumulated expertise in network innovation and Samsung’s technical leadership, this field trial proves that individual tuning for cells — a long-standing industry challenge — has now become a reality through the integration of AI,” said Kazuhiro Furuhata, Chief Network Officer at KDDI. “Moving forward, we remain committed to pushing the boundaries of AI-based technologies to continuously elevate network experience for our customers.”</p>



<p>“Samsung continues to help operators like KDDI build intelligent and efficient networks by weaving in AI-powered innovation,” said June Moon, Executive Vice President, Head of R&D, Networks Business at Samsung Electronics. “Since 2024, we have been actively testing and training our AI-powered RSO technology in the field and we have demonstrated breakthrough progress in its capabilities. This trial with KDDI exemplified how Samsung’s AI-powered innovation can bring advanced optimization to live commercial networks while facilitating steady, seamless connectivity in an array of different network environments.”</p>



<p>Building on this successful trial, Samsung and KDDI plan to continue evaluating AI-based optimization technologies for broader commercial network applications. The companies’ long-standing collaboration on fully virtualized network deployments provides KDDI with an optimal foundation for advancing toward AI-native network operations.</p>



<p>Samsung Networks has pioneered the successful delivery of 5G end-to-end solutions, including chipsets, radios and cores. Through ongoing research and development, Samsung is driving the industry to advance 5G networks and paving the way for 6G and beyond with its market-leading product portfolio, from purpose-built RAN, vRAN, Open RAN, AI-RAN and cloud-native core to private network solutions and AI-powered automation tools. The company currently provides innovative network solutions to mobile operators that deliver boundless connectivity to hundreds of millions of users worldwide.</p>

<p>Samsung Electronics today announced new education solutions for its Android-based Samsung Interactive Display lineup, making shared classroom displays easier to personalize and manage. Announced and exhibited at ISTELive 26, a leading education technology conference that is being hosted by the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) from June 28-July 1 in Orlando, Florida, the new solutions reflect Samsung’s focus on practical classroom tools for teachers and school IT teams.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="750" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/30103001/Samsung-TVs-and-Displays-ISTELive-2026-Samsung-AMS_main1.jpg" alt="Samsung Electronics today announced new education solutions for its Android-based Samsung Interactive Display lineup." class="wp-image-175281" /></figure>



<p>“Digital classrooms depend on the right balance of advanced hardware, intelligent software and intuitive user experiences,” said Hyoung Jae Kim, Executive Vice President of the Visual Display (VD) Business at Samsung Electronics. “By bringing together AI and seamless connectivity, Samsung’s interactive display solutions are designed to support a more flexible, connected learning environment in which teachers and students can thrive.”</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="750" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/30103031/Samsung-TVs-and-Displays-ISTELive-2026-Samsung-AMS_main2.jpg" alt="Announced and exhibited at ISTELive 26, a leading education technology conference that is being hosted by the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE)." class="wp-image-175282" /></figure>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Samsung AMS: Personalizing the Shared Display Experience</strong></h2>



<p>In schools where multiple teachers use the same classroom display throughout the day, access and privacy can become daily challenges. Samsung <strong>Account Management Solution (AMS)</strong>, which comes pre-installed on compatible Android-based Samsung Interactive Display lineup models, allows each teacher to access their own account using a QR code or an NFC-enabled ID card.<sup data-fn="06ab3e99-f8cd-439d-9857-733705ca68ca" class="fn"><a href="#06ab3e99-f8cd-439d-9857-733705ca68ca" id="06ab3e99-f8cd-439d-9857-733705ca68ca-link">1</a></sup> This streamlined sign-in experience helps schools support shared devices without relying on local profiles tied to a single display.</p>



<p>With <strong>Home Personalization,</strong> Samsung AMS supports cloud-connected profiles, allowing teachers to access their preferred layout, wallpaper, bookmarks, app shortcuts, files and settings when they sign in to compatible displays in different classrooms. This transforms any shared display into a personalized teaching workspace, giving teachers a consistent experience from room to room.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="563" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/30103332/Samsung-TVs-and-Displays-ISTELive-2026-Samsung-AMS_main3.jpg" alt="Samsung Account Management Solution (AMS), which comes pre-installed on compatible Android-based Samsung Interactive Display lineup models." class="wp-image-175283" /></figure>



<p>For added security, teachers can instantly activate a screen lock when they need to leave the classroom for brief amounts of time.</p>



<p>As schools add more connected displays, IT teams need a simpler way to manage users, devices and classroom permissions. <strong>Samsung Education Portal</strong> provides a central location for IT managers to register teachers and enroll devices. In terms of user management, NFC binding links NFC cards to teacher accounts so staff can sign in to shared displays with their assigned cards. IT teams can also enable Samsung AMS on selected displays and manage account access when needed, allowing classrooms to stay ready for the next teacher.</p>



<p>Samsung Education Portal also includes <strong>Tags</strong>, a feature that lets IT teams group displays by school, building or classroom. The same tags can support emergency alerts, enabling schools to push preconfigured alerts to selected Samsung Interactive Displays through major notification platforms like InformaCast and Raptor.<sup data-fn="e596f09a-6750-4bd8-9a63-d29e23c9d851" class="fn"><a href="#e596f09a-6750-4bd8-9a63-d29e23c9d851" id="e596f09a-6750-4bd8-9a63-d29e23c9d851-link">2</a></sup></p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Samsung AI Assistant: Supporting More Efficient Teaching and More Active Learning</strong></h2>



<p><strong>Samsung AI Assistant </strong>provides AI tools for common classroom tasks directly on compatible Android-based Samsung Interactive Displays. The app supports content discovery, transcription, summaries and quizzes, helping teachers encourage student focus, participation and comprehension throughout lessons.</p>



<p>With <strong>Circle to Search</strong>,<sup data-fn="bfc31909-2c62-4a84-bca7-3285dd7355eb" class="fn"><a href="#bfc31909-2c62-4a84-bca7-3285dd7355eb" id="bfc31909-2c62-4a84-bca7-3285dd7355eb-link">3</a></sup> teachers can circle on-screen text or images to find related information, visuals, videos and web links without leaving the display. Results can also be used in other classroom apps, such as Samsung Whiteboard, so teachers can bring supporting materials into the lesson more easily. <strong>Live Transcript</strong> converts spoken instruction into real-time text on the screen, making lessons easier to follow for students with hearing impairments, as well as multilingual learners.<sup data-fn="03e40d1a-7d64-4bc4-bdfc-4f2b0f918d71" class="fn"><a href="#03e40d1a-7d64-4bc4-bdfc-4f2b0f918d71" id="03e40d1a-7d64-4bc4-bdfc-4f2b0f918d71-link">4</a></sup></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="666" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/30103351/Samsung-TVs-and-Displays-ISTELive-2026-Samsung-AMS_main4.jpg" alt="Samsung AI Assistant also includes AI Summary and AI Quiz." class="wp-image-175284" /></figure>



<p>Samsung AI Assistant also includes <strong>AI Summary</strong> and <strong>AI Quiz</strong>. Using recorded lesson content, AI Quiz generates questions that allow teachers to assess student comprehension in real time. This keeps students engaged through the end of the lesson, while giving teachers immediate visibility into class performance, such as the overall correct answer rate. With <strong>Single Sign-On</strong> for Samsung AI Assistant through Samsung AMS, teachers can return to previous lesson materials, including AI-generated summaries, without signing in again.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Samsung Brings More Choice to Classroom Display Technology</strong></h2>



<p>Samsung AI Assistant is currently available following its April release, while Samsung AMS will be available beginning in July alongside related Samsung Education Portal updates.<sup data-fn="85c5dfc2-a896-4199-b3ab-2b2e32d079be" class="fn"><a href="#85c5dfc2-a896-4199-b3ab-2b2e32d079be" id="85c5dfc2-a896-4199-b3ab-2b2e32d079be-link">5</a></sup></p>

<p>Samsung Electronics today announced a partnership with Alcedis, a digital-first clinical research organization (CRO) specializing in data-driven clinical trials, to translate biometrics collected by wearable devices into meaningful evidence for clinical trials in pharmaceutical and other research organizations, maximizing efficiency in terms of both cost and time.</p>



<p>Wearable technologies have become a widely available and cost-effective way to capture continuous, real-world health data, making them extremely appealing for clinical research. However, many research programs struggle to translate wearable-generated signals into clinically meaningful evidence.</p>



<p>Samsung addresses this challenge through an integrated approach that combines its latest advancements in wearable technology with clinically validated measurements, including bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and electrodermal activity (EDA), as well as Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) features such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and atrial fibrillation (AFib) detection, biomarker development expertise and research-related technical infrastructure designed to support evidence generation across the research lifecycle.</p>



<p>“The future of clinical research is increasingly collaborative and brings together technology, scientific expertise and research partners to generate a deeper understanding of human health,” said Jongmin Choi, Head of Health R&D Group, Mobile eXperience (MX) Business, Samsung Electronics. “Through our collaboration with Alcedis, Samsung is unlocking new opportunities for biomarker development, digital endpoint innovation and evidence generation throughout the research lifecycle.”</p>



<p>Samsung’s research platform starts with its cutting-edge devices and biosensors featured on Galaxy Watch that enable continuous collection of physiological data in real-world environments for users that have consented. With industry-leading wearable technology and a collaborative approach to developing measurement methodologies that provide a foundation for scientifically meaningful digital biomarkers and endpoints, Samsung’s research platform allows for faster study setup with fine-grained control of biosensors and access to participant- and device-level insights and biosensor data with respect to the study and established protocols.</p>



<p>As healthcare shifts toward more connected, data-driven models of care and research, Samsung is helping bridge the gap between everyday health monitoring and scientific discovery — enabling a new era of evidence generation that brings researchers closer to real-world insights and helps accelerate innovation across the healthcare ecosystem.</p>



<p>“The future of clinical research depends on our ability to capture meaningful health data beyond traditional clinical settings,” said Hanno Härtlein, CEO of Alcedis. “Our collaboration with Samsung brings together complementary strengths and scalable infrastructure to help advance endpoints and biomarker development, to accelerate evidence generation and support the development of more patient-centric healthcare innovations. Under our collaboration, Alcedis will lead study execution and participant engagement, while Samsung will provide its advanced wearable technology and research infrastructure to support evidence generation.”</p>

<p>Samsung Electronics today announced a global partnership with Warner Bros. Pictures and DC Studios to mark the theatrical release of this summer’s epic new superhero adventure “Supergirl” on June 24. Through the partnership, Samsung is bringing fans closer to the film through Samsung Art Store, a Samsung Micro RGB TV sweepstakes in collaboration with electronics retailer Best Buy and select U.S. and U.K. experiences in support of its global release.</p>



<p>“Samsung’s display business has long been shaped by the way people engage with film, sports, games and art,” said Hun Lee, Executive Vice President of Visual Display (VD) Business at Samsung Electronics. “Through this partnership with Warner Bros. Pictures and DC Studios, we are bringing together the exciting, intergalactic visual world of ‘Supergirl’ with Samsung’s bold display experiences at home.”</p>

<p>Samsung Art Store, the leading digital art platform on Samsung Art TVs, is giving users a new way to experience DC-inspired art at home with a limited-time “Supergirl” collection, available now through March 8, 2027. Featuring 15 digital artworks from DC Comics, the collection brings the character’s comic legacy to life across Samsung’s expanded 2026 Art TV lineup.<sup data-fn="448dc918-41ec-4a66-b274-a405e3b21478" class="fn"><a href="#448dc918-41ec-4a66-b274-a405e3b21478" id="448dc918-41ec-4a66-b274-a405e3b21478-link">1</a></sup></p>



<p>In the U.S., Samsung and Best Buy are launching “Supergirl” sweepstakes at more than 600 participating Best Buy stores nationwide from June 22 through July 19. Special “Supergirl” content will play on Samsung Micro RGB TV displays in each store, where the display’s precise color expression will reveal a hidden riddle. The answer to this riddle will unlock additional entries to the sweepstakes.</p>



<p>As part of the film’s global press tour, the Supergirl Rest Stop pop-up at Phonica Records in London on June 20 featured Samsung 2026 TV and home audio lineups throughout film-inspired spaces, including Supergirl’s bedroom, Kara’s Ship, the Intergalactic Bus Stop and Space Bar.</p>

<p>“The compelling visual world that Craig Gillespie and his teams bring to life in ‘Supergirl’ is unlike anything we’ve seen in the DC Universe, and Samsung, through their innovative Art Store, brings consumers together with their singular technology to deliver that experience on their screens,” said Julie Moore, Head of Global Brand Partnerships at Warner Bros. Pictures. “Having partnered with them on ‘Superman,’ we were eager to work with them again to see how brilliant their ‘Supergirl’ experience would be, and they delivered.”</p>



<p>As the global TV market leader for 20 consecutive years,<sup data-fn="814a46b5-3b34-4f61-8618-6907310eac90" class="fn"><a href="#814a46b5-3b34-4f61-8618-6907310eac90" id="814a46b5-3b34-4f61-8618-6907310eac90-link">2</a></sup> Samsung continues to work across film, retail and home entertainment to connect audiences with the stories they follow on screen.</p>

<p>Samsung Electronics, the world leader in advanced memory technology today announced that, for the first time in the industry, it has developed the industry’s fastest Universal Flash Storage (UFS) 5.0 solution, which will help enable seamless and highly efficient AI services on future mobile devices.</p>



<p>The milestone sets a new benchmark for the next-generation mobile memory market as the enhanced performance is expected to allow mobile device users with significantly reduced latency and faster response times when running large language models (LLMs) in on-device AI environments.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="750" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/22175937/Samsung-Semiconductors-UFS-5.0-solution_main1.jpg" alt="Samsung Electronics announced that, for the first time in the industry, it has developed the industry's fastest Universal Flash Storage (UFS) 5.0 solution." class="wp-image-175061" /></figure>



<p>“In the era of on-device AI, storage devices are evolving into a key driver defining AI experiences,” said Jangseok Choi, head of Memory Product Planning at Samsung Electronics. “As we successfully move beyond the development stage of the industry’s first UFS 5.0 solution, Samsung is setting a new standard for storage on the go and will continue to drive innovation for the next-generation mobile platform market.”</p>



<p>Generative AI is rapidly shifting from the cloud to the device, driving a surge in the scale of data required for local processing. As a result, storage is evolving from a medium used primarily to store data to core infrastructure that supports AI computation.</p>



<p>Samsung’s UFS 5.0 integrates the latest embedded memory interface standard from JEDEC, achieving unparalleled performance levels with the industry’s highest bandwidth of up to 10.8 gigabytes per second (GB/s).</p>



<p>The new storage solution delivers a sequential read speed of up to 10.8 GB/s and a sequential write speed of up to 9.5 GB/s, speeds that are respectively more than twice as fast as those of the previous UFS 4.1 standard. This significant advancement enables much faster storage and processing of large data for on-device AI applications.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="750" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/22180000/Samsung-Semiconductors-UFS-5.0-solution_main2.jpg" alt="Samsung Electronics announced that, for the first time in the industry, it has developed the industry's fastest Universal Flash Storage (UFS) 5.0 solution." class="wp-image-175062" /></figure>



<p>Power efficiency in Samsung’s UFS 5.0 is also improved by more than 40% compared to the company’s UFS 4.1 solution. This is achieved by implementing a number of new innovations, including clock gating and multi-voltage technologies. These enhancements help to considerably reduce the power required to transfer the same amount of data, drastically lowering overall power consumption and extending the battery life of next-generation mobile devices.</p>



<p>Samsung has engineered the UFS 5.0 solution into an ultra-compact package measuring just 7.5mm x 13mm x 0.9mm — making it 16.7% smaller than its predecessor. This form factor significantly boosts design flexibility and internal space utilization for a wide range of applications, including mobile, wearable and extended reality (XR) devices.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="750" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/22180007/Samsung-Semiconductors-UFS-5.0-solution_main3.jpg" alt="Samsung Electronics announced that, for the first time in the industry, it has developed the industry's fastest Universal Flash Storage (UFS) 5.0 solution." class="wp-image-175063" /></figure>



<p>Samsung will begin mass production of its UFS 5.0 in the fourth quarter of this year in a variety of capacities up to one terabyte (TB). Through this breakthrough in UFS 5.0 technology, Samsung is staying ahead of industry needs and plans to scale up supply to meet the growth of next-generation device markets — ranging from flagship smartphones to XR headsets and AI wearables.</p>

<p>Samsung Electronics today shared its vision of connected care, a concept powered by Samsung’s open collaboration ecosystem, during a panel discussion at VivaTech 2026, Europe’s largest startup and tech exhibition, which is currently being held in Paris.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="560" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/20082403/Samsung-Corporate-Open-Ecosystem-Connected-Care-VivaTech-2026_Main1.jpg" alt="An image of VivaTech Panel discussion" class="wp-image-175007" /></figure>



<p>During the panel, Hon Pak, Head of the Digital Health Team for the Mobile eXperience (MX) Business at Samsung Electronics, joined four other speakers: David Lee, Head of Samsung Next; Mike McSherry, CEO of Xealth; Alina Su, CEO of Generation Lab; and Michael Dubrovsky, CEO of SiPhox Health. Together, they presented a blueprint for the future of healthcare to an audience of approximately 1,000 global attendees.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="667" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/20085136/Samsung-Corporate-Open-Ecosystem-Connected-Care-VivaTech-2026_Main2-1.jpg" alt="David Lee is presenting at VivaTech " class="wp-image-175021" /></figure>



<p>Serving as the moderator, David Lee emphasized the critical role of partnership. “The future of health cannot be built by one company alone,” Lee said. “It must be forged through an open ecosystem of collaboration among diverse innovators.”</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Building an Open Health Ecosystem</strong></h2>



<p>Samsung possesses a diverse portfolio of devices and platforms, spanning from semiconductors to mobile phones, wearables, home appliances and TVs. The company leverages its economies of scale to cultivate a robust, collaborative ecosystem with numerous partners across each of its business sectors.</p>



<p>By integrating Samsung devices with partner solutions within this open ecosystem, Xealth, Generation Lab and SiPhox Health are accelerating the realization of connected care. This healthcare vision aims to help users lead healthier, more vibrant lives through proactive wellness management powered by Samsung’s connected device ecosystem.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="667" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/20085214/Samsung-Corporate-Open-Ecosystem-Connected-Care-VivaTech-2026_Main3-1.jpg" alt="Hon Pak is presenting at VivaTech " class="wp-image-175022" /></figure>



<p>Hon Pak highlighted the scale of Samsung’s reach during the discussion. “Samsung Health supports more than 77 million monthly active users,<sup data-fn="ed83b8cc-7f60-4bf8-a436-c2d3d0383199" class="fn"><a href="#ed83b8cc-7f60-4bf8-a436-c2d3d0383199" id="ed83b8cc-7f60-4bf8-a436-c2d3d0383199-link">1</a></sup> and the SmartThings platform connects 460 million users,”<sup data-fn="5bed902d-8d2a-40dd-a6ae-dc709fe09676" class="fn"><a href="#5bed902d-8d2a-40dd-a6ae-dc709fe09676" id="5bed902d-8d2a-40dd-a6ae-dc709fe09676-link">2</a></sup> Pak said.</p>



<p>Samsung holds a strong advantage as a trusted brand within the household, the central setting for daily life and wellness. “By connecting our device ecosystem around the home via SmartThings, we can innovate the health experience where it matters most, at a time when health is shifting to the home — a space in which prevention can happen at scale,” Pak added.</p>



<p>To support this transition, Samsung has integrated a wide variety of devices — including home appliances, TVs and compatible third-party devices — into its SmartThings platform. This enables a broad spectrum of services that range from personalized automation routines to family and pet care.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Accelerating Innovation Through Partnerships</strong></h2>



<p>The panelists identified Samsung’s established ecosystem and open approach to collaboration as key strengths.</p>



<p>Alina Su of Generation Lab emphasized the value of this partnership. “What has been most exciting is Samsung’s genuine openness and distribution. There’s real scale and technical capability — but there’s also a willingness to collaborate, to co-create and to move quickly with partners,” Su said. “When you combine that with the devices people already use every day, you can bring innovation to people’s lives far faster than you could independently.”</p>



<p>Michael Dubrovsky of SiPhox Health also explained the benefits of the collaboration. “Samsung brings the device ecosystem already living in people’s homes and on their bodies,” Dubrovsky said. “SiPhox adds the diagnostic layer that has always been missing from that picture. Together, continuous device data and continuous biomarker data create a truly complete health picture that has never existed outside a clinical setting.”</p>



<p>Currently, Generation Lab provides a solution to help users easily check biological age and actively manage aging at home, while SiPhox Health offers a service that enables active health management through hospital-grade blood tests in each household.</p>



<p>Mike McSherry of Xealth shared a vision for providing a seamless, continuous healthcare solution by bridging the gap between clinical care in hospitals and daily wellness management through deep integration with Samsung.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Empowering Open Collaborations and Ensuring Robust Security</strong></h2>



<p>In addition to strategic partner collaborations, Samsung has built an open ecosystem for the wider developer and researcher community. Utilizing the Samsung Health Software Development Kit (SDK) Suite, they can easily create innovative wellness services leveraging advanced sensor technology and the health platform. This allows Samsung Health users to experience useful new features more quickly.</p>



<p>Protecting these experiences is Samsung Knox, a proprietary defense-grade security solution integrated across various consumer touchpoints, such as mobile devices, home appliances and TVs. With Knox, users can confidently manage their sensitive information within the Samsung ecosystem.</p>



<p>Looking at the next five years of healthcare in the context of the AI era, Pak concluded, “A daily companion that knows who I am, as well as what I need and when, will help me achieve my health goals seamlessly through lifestyle behaviors and connected innovative partner services.”</p>

<p>Samsung Electronics is presenting its connected care vision for healthcare and advancing a shift toward proactive health management at VivaTech 2026, Europe’s largest startup and tech conference, running June 17-20 at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles in Paris.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="667" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/17085311/Samsung-Corporate-Everyday-Wellness-Connected-Care-Solutions-VivaTech-2026_Main1.jpg" alt="An image of Samsung’s exhibition" class="wp-image-174951" /></figure>



<p>Held under the theme “Open Invitation to a Healthier Tomorrow,” Samsung’s exhibition demonstrates how connecting devices, services and partnerships can support proactive health management inside and outside the home. Samsung’s connected care vision is realized through Samsung Health, the company’s integrated health platform, which delivers personalized wellness experiences across five key health areas: sleep, activity, nutrition, mental health and vital signs.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="667" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/17085522/Samsung-Corporate-Everyday-Wellness-Connected-Care-Solutions-VivaTech-2026_Main2.jpg" alt="An image of Samsung’s exhibition demonstrating five key health areas: sleep, activity, nutrition, mental health and vital signs." class="wp-image-174952" /></figure>



<p>“Samsung delivers unique connected care solutions that encompass the Samsung ecosystem of smartphones, wearables, home appliances and TVs, as well as our open partnerships,” said Stephanie Choi, Executive Vice President and Head of Global Brand Center at Samsung Electronics. “We continue to work to provide various health solutions through open partnerships to firmly establish ourselves as a reliable AI-powered everyday health companion.”</p>



<p>The exhibition booth is organized into three zones:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Media Façade:</strong> A video interpretation of the exhibition theme “Open Invitation to a Healthier Tomorrow,” beautifully integrated with Samsung Health’s five core wellness areas.</li>



<li><strong>Samsung’s Connected Care Ecosystem:</strong> A comprehensive look at the connected care solutions and core services.</li>



<li><strong>Open Care Lab:</strong> A space highlighting partner collaboration and startup incubation that also includes an interactive zone.</li>
</ul>



<p>Samsung’s Connected Care Ecosystem Zone serves as the main area of the exhibition and demonstrates how Galaxy smartphones, Galaxy Watches and the Samsung Health app seamlessly connect to enable proactive wellness management. The zone also offers a glimpse into the future of daily health management, powered by Samsung Health’s latest features — including tracking via Heart Health Score and Vitals, alongside enhanced workout metrics such as Daily Cardio Load, introduced in the new 7.0 update.<sup data-fn="f314200d-745a-40ea-835d-ad6ca9fa9d0e" class="fn"><a href="#f314200d-745a-40ea-835d-ad6ca9fa9d0e" id="f314200d-745a-40ea-835d-ad6ca9fa9d0e-link">1</a></sup></p>



<p>In this zone, Samsung is presenting its future digital healthcare blueprint, which aims to bridge wellness and clinical care by integrating Samsung’s technology with Xealth, the U.S. digital health platform the company acquired last year.</p>



<p>Xealth provides a platform that enables medical professionals to comprehensively assess patient conditions, prescribe and recommend digital healthcare solutions and monitor health in real time. By connecting Galaxy smartphones and wearables with the Xealth platform, Samsung plans to develop a solution that empowers both clinical teams and patients to actively manage health together, even outside of a hospital setting.</p>

<p>Samsung Electronics today announced the global launch of The Frame (HL03H model) at HITEC 2026, the largest and longest-running international hospitality technology event, held from June 15-18 at the Henry B. González Convention Center in San Antonio, Texas. Designed for hotels and premium commercial spaces, the new model brings the world’s first Art TV to Samsung’s hospitality TV lineup. It serves as both a premium display and a design feature, adding artwork, entertainment and connected hotel services to guest rooms and shared spaces.</p>



<p>“With The Frame for hotels, Samsung is bringing one of its most distinctive TV experiences to hospitality businesses,” said Hyoung Jae Kim, Executive Vice President of the Visual Display (VD) Business at Samsung Electronics. “Samsung will continue to invest in hospitality display solutions that help brands deliver premium service, strengthen their brand identity and prepare for the next phase of connected guest experiences.”</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>A Hospitality Display Designed for Premium Spaces</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="563" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/12144235/Samsung-TVs-and-Displays-The-Frame-Hospitality-Model-HITEC-2026_Main1.jpg" alt="The image of Samsung The Frame (HL03H model) for hotels" class="wp-image-174883" /></figure>



<p>With this hospitality model, Samsung brings the award-winning design and functionality of The Frame to hotels and corporate environments. The display combines <strong>4K QLED</strong> picture quality with a refined form that fits naturally into premium interiors. Its <strong>Anti Glare</strong> panel reduces unwanted reflections, while the <strong>Slim Fit Wall Mount </strong>allows the TV to sit close to the wall for a clean, gallery-like installation. The Frame eliminates the need for a separate One Connect Box by integrating key connection components into the display, supporting simpler installation in hospitality spaces. Optional magnetic bezels allow hotel operators to customize the frame to match the mood and design of each space, as well.<sup data-fn="34dd5dae-2713-4050-b2b8-9179fa97ea4e" class="fn"><a href="#34dd5dae-2713-4050-b2b8-9179fa97ea4e" id="34dd5dae-2713-4050-b2b8-9179fa97ea4e-link">1</a></sup></p>



<p><strong>Collection Hub</strong> gives The Frame its distinct value as an Art TV for hospitality environments, allowing hotel operators to display selected artwork, photography or brand visuals when the TV is not in active use. <strong>Generative Wallpaper</strong> lets guests create AI-generated backgrounds for the screen, adding a customized touch to their room experience. Together, these features help each display become part of the room’s design, whether presenting hotel-curated visuals or AI-generated imagery selected by guests.</p>



<p>As Samsung’s most premium hospitality TV offering, The Frame for hotels is the first model in Samsung’s hotel TV lineup to support Generative Wallpaper and Live Translate. <strong>Live Translate</strong> helps international travelers comfortably watch local broadcasts or Samsung TV Plus with subtitles in their preferred language. The result is more accessible local content for users traveling overseas.<sup data-fn="6bb3e721-6b32-4acf-b299-21f073553c14" class="fn"><a href="#6bb3e721-6b32-4acf-b299-21f073553c14" id="6bb3e721-6b32-4acf-b299-21f073553c14-link">2</a></sup></p>



<p>Beginning with Samsung’s 2025 hotel TV lineup and extending to the HL03H model, <strong>Google Cast</strong> and <strong>Apple AirPlay</strong> support allows guests to share content from a smartphone or tablet to the in-room TV by scanning an on-screen QR code. No separate login is required and device connection information is automatically deleted upon checkout to help protect guest privacy.<sup data-fn="361fabc5-275d-4aa0-a8a7-217258bfbc73" class="fn"><a href="#361fabc5-275d-4aa0-a8a7-217258bfbc73" id="361fabc5-275d-4aa0-a8a7-217258bfbc73-link">3</a></sup></p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Managing Hospitality Features From One Platform</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="563" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/12144259/Samsung-TVs-and-Displays-The-Frame-Hospitality-Model-HITEC-2026_Main2.jpg" alt="The image of Samsung The Frame for hotels" class="wp-image-174884" /></figure>



<p><strong>LYNK Cloud</strong>, Samsung’s comprehensive hospitality cloud solution, helps hotel teams monitor TV status in real time, update on-screen services and distribute guest-facing content across connected displays from a central platform.<sup data-fn="836d6657-25b4-468b-b287-62d8891dafcd" class="fn"><a href="#836d6657-25b4-468b-b287-62d8891dafcd" id="836d6657-25b4-468b-b287-62d8891dafcd-link">4</a></sup></p>



<p>With the support of LYNK Cloud, guests can access digital concierge features, book hotel services and order room service through the in-room TV. This gives hotels another way to connect guests with property services directly from the display.</p>



<p>LYNK Cloud also includes <strong>Business Intelligence</strong>, a feature that helps hotel teams understand how guests use in-room TV services, including frequently ordered menu items or popular TV channels. These insights can support more relevant offerings and help identify new revenue opportunities.</p>



<p>Furthermore, LYNK Cloud supports <strong>Collection Hub</strong> management on hospitality model of The Frame. With it, hotel teams can distribute selected art content across connected devices simultaneously. They can adjust brightness and color tone based on indoor lighting conditions, as well, helping each display fit the hotel’s brand concept and room environment.</p>



<p>Samsung will showcase The Frame for hotels at booth 2442 during HITEC 2026. The new model will be available in 43-, 55-, 65- and 75-inch sizes, with global rollout beginning in the second half of 2026.<sup data-fn="3dfb6af2-1865-4e73-a382-096c4ec71c11" class="fn"><a href="#3dfb6af2-1865-4e73-a382-096c4ec71c11" id="3dfb6af2-1865-4e73-a382-096c4ec71c11-link">5</a></sup></p>

<p>Samsung Electronics, global display leader and provider of <a href="https://www.samsung.com/us/tvs/art-tv/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">the Official Art TV of Art Basel</a>, today announced the launch of the Art Basel in Basel (ABB) 2026 Collection, a curated digital exhibition available exclusively on Samsung Art Store. The collection brings together 24 works by Swiss and Switzerland-based artists from eight renowned galleries exhibiting at Art Basel in Basel 2026, held from June 18-21 in Switzerland.</p>



<p>“Basel has a distinct place in the art world, and this collection reflects the creative range that makes the fair so meaningful,” said Hun Lee, Executive Vice President of Visual Display (VD) Business at Samsung Electronics. “Through our longstanding partnership with Art Basel, we are helping customers turn their screens into a personal space for discovering, displaying and living with art.” </p>



<p>Reflecting the range of artistic voices across the Swiss art scene, the ABB 2026 Collection will be available on Samsung Art Store starting today. The digital collection is a continuation of Samsung and Art Basel’s global partnership and brings select works from Art Basel fairs to Samsung Art TV users around the world.</p>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>A Closer Look at the ABB 2026 Collection</strong></h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" width="1000" height="667" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/12121737/Samsung-TVs-and-Displays-Samsung-Art-Store-Samsung-Art-TV-Art-Basel-in-Basel-2026_main2.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-174859" /></figure>



<p>The ABB 2026 Collection offers a regional view of Art Basel in Basel through established names and rising talent from eight galleries. Participating galleries include Mai 36, von Bartha, Skopia and Blue Velvet from Switzerland, along with Fanta MLN, Hoffmann Donahue, Lars Friedrich, Sans titre and Felix Gaudlitz.</p>



<p>At its core, the collection highlights three Swiss-born artists spanning multiple generations of contemporary practice:</p>



<p><strong>Thomas Huber’s “16.7.2024” </strong>reflects his distinctive approach to painting, where image and text converge to explore picture space as both a visual and philosophical construction.</p>



<p><strong>Tobias Kaspar’s “The Japan Collection” </strong>examines systems of value, taste and desire through a multidisciplinary practice that bridges art and fashion.</p>



<p><strong>Athene Galiciadis’s “Stillleben (Reflection on longings and belongings)”</strong> presents a richly layered visual language, combining geometric and organic forms with references to craft, design, science and spirituality.</p>



<p>“Basel is a city where art is experienced with great depth and attention, and I am pleased that this spirit is reflected in the Samsung Art Store’s ABB 2026 Collection,” said Maike Cruse, Director of Art Basel in Basel. “Together with Samsung, we highlight artists based in Switzerland. The collection reflects the richness, diversity and vitality of the region while reinforcing our commitment to connecting regional scenes with a global audience.”</p>

<p>At this year’s Art Basel in Basel, visitors can experience Samsung Art Store through an immersive installation that shows how art can move beyond the gallery and into everyday spaces. The experience will feature a gallery-style Art Wall composed of displays from Samsung’s 2026 Art TV lineup, including Micro RGB, OLED, The Frame Pro and The Frame. The Art Wall will showcase selected works based on attendees’ visual preferences and offer a preview of the ABB 2026 Collection, highlighting how Samsung display technology can make art feel more personal in the home.</p>



<p>Samsung’s Art Basel exhibit will also feature a collaboration with visual artist Daniel Arsham, Samsung’s new Art TV ambassador. Designed for The Frame Pro, Arsham’s custom bezel turns the TV frame into a sculptural surface, with a three-dimensional pattern inspired by topographical mapping data. It is paired with on-screen artwork inspired by erosion patterns and crystalline forms, extending the work into the surrounding space and reflecting Arsham’s exploration of time, material and everyday objects.</p>

<p>The new billboard campaigns will be showcased at locations in Korea, as well as iconic locations such as Times Square in New York, Piccadilly Circus in London, the Entertainment Building in Hong Kong and will run through the end of the year.</p>



<p>The advertising video featured in the campaign emphasizes the core features of the Micro RGB AI Engine Pro, highlighting how its precise color control produces deeper, more vibrant visuals.</p>



<p>Centering on a large-scale hip-hop dance performance created in collaboration with renowned choreographer Sergio Reis, the advertisement visually brings Micro RGB’s extensive array of red, green and blue backlights to life, along with the precision AI engine that controls them.</p>



<p>The campaign also highlights a range of viewing experiences, including AI Soccer Mode, which allows users to mute commentators to fully immerse themselves in the game and Vision AI Companion, which delivers real-time player and team statistics.</p>
