Across the five regions, Samsung highlighted AI appliance technologies and how they are applied in everyday life to reflect local lifestyles: kitchen-centered AI homes in North America; energy-efficient built-in AI appliances in Europe; SmartThings-connected AI homes in Latin America; climate- and family-conscious solutions in Southwest Asia; and appliances for homes and businesses in Southeast Asia.

The events brought together about 270 media representatives and influencers from 23 countries. Through hands-on experiences with a range of products, attendees discovered how AI appliances can serve as “Home Companions,” reducing the burden of household chores, managing energy consumption, and looking after the everyday needs of family members.

US: Making Everyday Life at Home More Convenient With AI Appliances

“The Brief New York,” held April 15–16 (local time) at a Samsung showroom in New Jersey, focused on how AI appliances can make household chores less demanding and improve quality of life. Samsung demonstrated AI features in refrigerators and ovens that make everyday kitchen tasks easier, from managing ingredients to preparing meals.

Attendees saw how the “AI Vision” feature of the Bespoke AI Refrigerator Family Hub recognizes not only food ingredients but also labels on containers, automatically adding items to the Food List. The demonstration showed how AI helps users easily keep track of what is in their refrigerator and avoid unnecessary duplicate purchases.

The “AI Pro Cooking” feature of the Bespoke AI Oven also drew attention. Its internal camera recognizes ingredients, recommends optimal cooking settings, and monitors changes in food color to notify users as their meals cook. Together, these capabilities demonstrated how AI can take the hassle out of cooking.

Samsung also presented a refrigerator lineup designed around the needs of North American consumers, who value ample food storage, hygiene, and efficient use of space, underscoring its ability to deliver AI appliances tailored to local needs.

Europe: Helping Consumers Save Energy With High-Efficiency Built-In AI Appliances

Energy efficiency took center stage at “The Brief Milan,” held April 21 in Milan, Italy, where Samsung presented a range of high-efficiency AI appliances for European consumers.

The “Bespoke AI Washer” drew attention for reducing energy use by an additional 65% compared with Europe’s Class A energy efficiency threshold, while the “Bespoke AI Dishwasher” cuts energy use by up to 20% against the same benchmark. Samsung highlighted how these advanced energy-saving technologies can help consumers reduce their energy consumption while offering the added benefits of AI-powered appliances.

In the kitchen, Samsung presented the Extractor Induction Hob, the built-in Bespoke AI Dishwasher, and a refrigerator with “AI Precise Cooling,” which helps minimize internal temperature fluctuations.

Together, these innovations illustrated Samsung’s vision for an AI home optimized for European living environments, combining energy-saving technologies, appliances that blend seamlessly into living spaces, and connected experiences powered by SmartThings.

Latin America: Bringing AI Homes Together Through SmartThings Connectivity

In Latin America, SmartThings connectivity was a central theme, bringing multiple appliances together into a unified AI home ecosystem. Events were held on August 19 in São Paulo, Brazil, and September 9 in Mexico City, Mexico.

Attendees experienced how SmartThings lets users check the operating status of individual appliances and manage and control them as needed. Samsung emphasized that bringing everyday appliances, such as refrigerators, washing machines, and air conditioners, under one connected system can make life at home significantly more convenient.

Samsung demonstrated the practical benefits of SmartThings-connected appliances designed for local living environments and daily habits.

Southwest Asia: From Personalized Cooling to Family Care, AI Appliances That Look After Everyday Needs

Personalized cooling and family care were among the highlights of “The Brief,” held September 16 in Gurugram, India, reflecting the region’s hot, humid climate and family-centered lifestyle.

In the air conditioner experience zone, Samsung demonstrated five airflow control modes powered by the “Motion Wind” technology in its Bespoke AI WindFree Pro Air Conditioner. A highlight was the “WindFree Wearable Good Sleep” mode, which connects to Galaxy Watch and Galaxy Ring devices to adjust cooling based on users’ sleep stages and changes in body temperature, creating a comfortable sleep environment.

In the kitchen appliance experience zone, Samsung introduced “Now Brief,” which delivers personalized information on the screen of the Bespoke AI Refrigerator Family Hub, and “Family Care,” which monitors family members’ device usage patterns to check on their well-being. Together, these features demonstrated how AI can go beyond simplifying household chores to provide personalized experiences and help look after family members in their daily lives.

Samsung also highlighted its service offerings, including SmartThings Home Care and remote appliance management, which extend support beyond the initial purchase to everyday use, maintenance, and ongoing care.

Southeast Asia: Expanding Appliance Solutions from Homes to Businesses

The final stop was Hanoi, Vietnam, where Samsung unveiled a broad range of appliance solutions for both individual consumers and business customers at “The Brief Hanoi” on October 14. The event brought together leading media representatives and influencers from six Southeast Asian countries.

The event took place at Samsung’s newly renovated Business Experience Studio (BES). In spaces recreating real-world settings such as schools, hotels, and commercial facilities, attendees explored firsthand how Samsung’s products and solutions can be applied across a variety of business environments.

Samsung placed particular emphasis on its heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) portfolio, highlighting the company’s strengths in this emerging growth business and reinforcing its market position. The company also previewed its 2027 air conditioner lineup, featuring updated designs and AI-powered capabilities such as “AI Energy Mode.”

For residential appliances, Samsung demonstrated AI-powered convenience features, including “AI Vision” and “Bixby.” The company also introduced its approach to ongoing product care, which combines software updates for up to seven years and its “Home Appliance Remote Management (HRM)” service. The HRM service remotely diagnoses potential issues and provides users with guidance. Together, these services help improve appliance functionality and usability long after purchase.

Looking ahead, Samsung plans to further expand its AI appliance offerings and services to reflect the unique living environments, lifestyles, and consumer needs of each region, strengthening its competitive position in the global AI home market.
