Samsung Unveils New Refrigerator Line-up Equipped with Display Screens
Extending Screens Across Side-by-Side Refrigerators: Introducing ‘Screens Everywhere’ Vision Refrigerators with Innovative All Around Cooling Technology
Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. has announced the global roll-out of its latest line-up of smart refrigerators, reinforcing the “Screens Everywhere” vision that was introduced at CES 2025.
This expansion includes the introduction of the 9-inch AI Home screen[1] on a select range of Side by Side models that include the Bespoke AI Side by Side. The Samsung Family Hub™ 21,5’’ Side by Side refrigerator that comes with Display screen are able to keep your family connected anytime, anywhere. You can now share pictures, videos and drawings with Google photos², control your smart appliances and devices as well as get all the benefits of Alexa/Bixby built-in and quickly add items to your shopping list – all right from your Samsung smart fridge.
“By offering a wide array of Side-by-Side refrigerator options across type and also screen sizes, we are expanding consumers’ choices in an effort to meet diverse household requirements,” says Jeong Seung Moon, EVP and Head of the R&D Team for Digital Appliances Business at Samsung Electronics. “Consumers can enjoy greater flexibility in choosing fridge designs, while benefiting from the AI-powered smart home experience that Samsung provides.”
The Next Generation of Refrigeration
With AI & SmartThings™, you can now explore what’s possible with interconnected home appliances, from intelligent energy saving to convenient device control and seamless device continuity experience. AI Energy mode enables the fridge to anticipate usage to minimise air loss and runs a defrost cycle only when necessary to save an extra 15% of energy.
Also, now you can get the best of both worlds with SpaceMax™. Thin walls mean more space for food storage on the inside, while the outside size stays the same – all without compromising on performance. You really can get the best of both worlds. Make sure food is properly cooled – wherever it is. The All Around Cooling feature cools each compartment evenly from corner, so everything is kept at the right temperature. It continually checks the temperature and circulates cool air everywhere in the fridge through the vents on every shelf. The Auto Open Door features touch sensors on both sides, allowing you to open it with a light touch.
The sensor lights are always on, making them easy to locate even in the dark and they emit a sound to alert you when the door opens. All these Side-by-Side fridges now come with the New High efficiency Digital Inverter compressor. The magnet poles of the rotor are sitting outside meaning at a lower speed of 1250 RPM, you are getting a higher energy efficiency rating (EER). The outer rotor design of the compressor allows it to generate less heat therefore saves energy.
