Samsung brings it home at CES with everything but the kitchen sink

Korean tech giant Samsung has something new for every room in the house.

Korean tech giant Samsung has taken the wraps off products across their entire lineup and there is something for every room in the house.

The living room television has been turned upright with the Sero TV from Samsung. This 4K television lets you consume content in portrait mode, like we do on smartphones. Fortunately, it also allows you to go back to landscape mode with ease. It’s especially handy for when you’re mirroring your smartphone. In future, you’ll be able to split the screen and take advantage of the height offered by a TV like this. Not one to shy away from new ideas, this is one we’re excited to experience more but whether it takes off is another question.

The Samsung Q950TS smart TV is an 85-inch 8K QLED television with an infinity screen without a bezel or frame around the TV. It looks as though the pixels could fall off the sides.

Also on show at CES in Las Vegas, for those happy to continue with traditional TV, the Q950TS smart TV is going to sit at the top of your wishlist. It’s an 85-inch 8K QLED television with an infinity screen without a bezel or frame around the TV.

It looks as though the pixels could fall off the sides.

The picture is only half the story, with new innovations in audio technology such as object tracking sound. Audio can be pushed in the direction that objects move on the screen. An aeroplane flying on screen carries the audio with it leading to a more immersive experience. With televisions getting thinner and now without borders, Samsung has made use of the entire screen to amplify the audio. You need to hear it to fully appreciate it.

The Samsung family hub now features artificial intelligence to identify and know what is in your fridge, suggest recipes and guide you through the process, even helping you plan meals ahead.

The Samsung cube refrigerators can be stacked or placed in the living room next to the couch or under the kitchen bench.

Moving into the kitchen there are two products you’ll want to know about. The family hub fridge takes existing kitchen innovation up a level. The family hub now features artificial intelligence to identify and know what is in your fridge, suggest recipes and guide you through the process, even helping you plan meals ahead.

You can see inside the fridge through the 22-inch display and find out about its contents from anywhere in the world. You can also control your smart home, see who is at the front door and watch content.

The cube refrigerator series is a cute and versatile option for cooling your beer or wine. Small enough and operating quietly, the cubes can be stacked or placed in the living room next to the couch or under the kitchen bench. The new design of the cube takes refrigeration to a new area as form and function take a new meaning.

Samsung also demonstrated a robotic life companion named Ballie. The yellow sphere has built in sensors, a camera and AI to interact with you. Ballie can be a personal fitness assistant and an extension of your smartphone experience.

Whether this one comes to Australia, or anywhere in the world is yet to be seen. However it is a symbolic reminder that Samsung isn’t just a smartphone company. They’ve evolved to be a maker of all things “smart”, whether we knew we needed these devices or not.
