Samsung Fridges - Smart Features That Make Life Easier
Samsung fridges are equipped with a range of smart features that simplify your life. They are also Energy Star certified and have a 10-year guarantee.
Family Hub is an Android-powered touchscreen built inside the refrigerator door. It allows you to manage your calendar, create lists of items to buy and stream music.
FlexZone
While LG may have the edge in terms of cutting-edge refrigerator features, Samsung offers a few things that set its fridges apart from other models. For instance, some Samsung models come with a Food Showcase design and a FlexZone section that can be used as a freezer or a fridge. This section can be customized with a Smart Divider that can help organize the things and keep them at the proper temperature.
This model is a great choice for those who want a sleek, modern look in their kitchen. It is finished in stainless steel, and has a handleless design. It is a great fit in any style of kitchen. It also has plenty of storage space with two humidity-controlled crisper bins and three adjustable shelves that can be moved to different positions according to the needs. This refrigerator is also ENERGY-STAR certified, so you can be confident that it will reduce your energy costs.
Samsung's FlexZone is a brand new feature that lets you convert the bottom portion of the refrigerator into a freezer or
portable fridge depending on your needs. This is a great method to maximize storage space while saving on energy costs. You can even make use of the FlexZone to store frozen food and fresh vegetables in the same space. This feature is available on a few Samsung French door refrigerators.
The Samsung FlexZone fridge has a flexible design that can accommodate many different types of food and beverages. The shelves can be adjusted for large or tall items. The compartments are separated by doors that are independently controlled temperatures. It also comes with an ice maker that produces both crushed ice and cubes. It also comes with a full-width pantry drawer for storing deli meats and party platters.
This Samsung refrigerator has a
large capacity of storage and is ideal for those who have little space. The modern and sleek design comes with doors that open to make it easy to grab your favourite snacks. The refrigerator has an inverter compressor that is digital and is constructed of durable materials that will last for a long time. It also features a hinge that is recessed, which minimizes air gaps, which helps keep your refrigerator running smoothly.
Door-in-Door
The
glass door fridge-in-Door refrigerators come with a compartment inside the fridge that can be opened with a single pull of the handle. This makes it simpler to grab snacks, drinks, or condiments without having to open the main refrigerator. This can help minimize loss of cold air, which keeps your food fresher for longer. Some refrigerators have this technology as an alternative. Others, such as the LG Side by Side Refrigerator LRMVC2306S incorporate it into the design of the refrigerator so that opening the dedicated doors opens both the door in door compartment as well as the main compartment of the fridge.
While a lot of refrigerator bells and whistles could be viewed like gimmicks, new features that have staying power satisfy a real need of consumers. Samsung refrigerators have a Door-in-Door feature that is a fantastic example. It allows you to easily access items such as butter, ketchup and milk that are often used without having to open the entire refrigerator which could result in the loss of cold air.
Some Samsung French-door models have interactive refrigerator doors, including the Family Hub. They allow you to organize your calendar, stream apps and create to-do lists on the fridge's touchscreen. Some even have cameras inside the fridge so that you can monitor food and drinks from any location.
Family Hub
A 21-inch touchscreen powered by Tizen is integrated into the refrigerator. It can be used as a digital display, smart speaker powered by Bixby, fridge manager and tablet powered by apps. It also comes with three tiny cameras that capture images every time the refrigerator door closes and lets you see what's inside (though this feature isn't yet available in all markets). The Family Hub comes preloaded with many apps to aid you in staying connected and organized with your family members, from grocery delivery services to recipes to a whiteboard that lets you leave messages for each other or your children.
In addition to the apps that are designed to help you stay well-organized, the Family Hub has a number of fun ones to keep everyone entertained and happy. For example you can stream music directly through the built-in speakers in the fridge--the perfect soundtrack for spontaneous kitchen dance parties. You can use the touchscreen to stream content directly from your Samsung device,
large like TVs that support Samsung's SmartThings platform.
Although the Family Hub has some great features but it's not without limitations. The lack of an app store for third party apps is among the most prominent. If you don't want to use the default screens or applications and you don't have the option to download anything else. This could be a problem if you'd prefer to use an alternative app for shopping lists, reminders or loyalty programs.
Another limitation is that you cannot make use of voice commands to control the refrigerator. When Samsung first unveiled its Family Hub refrigerator, Alexa was the most prominent feature in the list of features. This meant that the fridge could effectively become an Amazon Echo for the kitchen. The integration never took place and is an unintentional inconsistency.
Despite its limitations, the Family hub is still an effective and impressive gadget. It's a great way to keep connected to your family and also manage your smart home devices and also organize your grocery list.
SmartThings
SmartThings doesn't receive the attention that Amazon Alexa and Google Home do, but it's a robust and flexible smart home platform. The hub is equipped with Z-Wave radios as well as Zigbee radios. This means that you can add a wide variety of compatible devices including Lutron, Sonos Ecobee, Lifx Ring, Belkin Arlo and Philips Hue. SmartThings has Scenes that allow you to control a collection of compatible devices simultaneously. For instance, you could create an "movie night" scene that dims the lights and turns on your Blu-ray player.
The SmartThings app lets you monitor and control a wide variety of connected appliances, including the refrigerator. The app will alert if, for example, the refrigerator is using too much energy. It will then alter the settings of the appliance to help you reach your energy savings goals. SmartThings also allows you to create custom schedules as well as automations, such as shutting off your dishwasher or oven before you go to bed.
Since Samsung bought SmartThings in 2014, the app is installed on all Samsung smartphones and tablets. It's among the most reliable systems for home automation, but it's not without issues. Many users have reported major outages to servers, which is an issue for those who depend on their smart home technology. The good news is that these outages usually only last a few hours and the engineers of the company are working to resolve the problem.
If you're looking for a smart fridge that will connect to other appliances in your home, the SmartThings-compatible Family Hub is an excellent choice. It is compatible with a range of smart devices from third parties, as well as other Samsung devices. It is compatible with Amazon Alexa and
large Google Assistant as well as Mercedes Benz voice assistant.
