“Samsung has strongly reinvigorated the home appliance space with fresh thinking and functionality that have taken appliances from a ‘need’” to a ‘want’. With the new and innovative Family Hub Refrigerator, we are transforming the communal kitchen experience for consumers in ways that will re-define how they view and use their refrigerator,” said John Herrington, Senior Vice President, General Manager of Home Appliances, Samsung Electronics America. “Now more than ever, we are delivering in a big way on the promise of the Internet of Things, not only in refrigeration but in cooking, with a new Wi-Fi-connected range that takes cooking convenience to a new level.”


Family Hub Refrigerator Makes Its Debut
The Samsung Family Hub Refrigerator is a sophisticated multi-tasker that reconnects families, organizes groceries and home tasks, and provides entertainment.

The Family Hub is just that – a hub of household connections, but with a thoroughly digital twist. All communications are housed and displayed on a 21.5 inch full HD LCD resolution screen located on the upper right exterior door. As the refrigerator’s digital family command center, the screen allows you to post, share and update calendars, pin photos, share treasured kids’ works of art, and leave notes – all with the ease and convenience of your smartphone.

wait, what? why the gently caress does my range need a wifi connection?


like, ok, i can kind of get fridge, like track what's in there or whatever, but a range? i don't understand. why.

do they explain why at all or do they just say they have a wi-fi range

quote:

Now available with Wi-Fi connectivity, this range leverages Internet of Things (IoT) in a practical innovation that lets you monitor your cooktop and oven remotely. You can preheat and adjust oven cooking temperatures all from your smart phone as well as monitor the cooktop elements to make sure you’ve turned them off.

that's all i can find.

cool things that would be nice 2 have:
control oven temp/timer and get notifications from oven
get notifications for complete cycles from washer/dryer/dish washer

these are dumb imo. why do you need notifications from an oven, are you like putting things in it to cook and then leaving the house or something. do you really need to know the exact moment that your washer/dryer/dishwasher cycle ends so you can drop everything and go deal with it. i dunno, it seems awfully pointless and dumb.

The NUA Robotics suitcase is upping the bar for "smart," though: By using an in-suitcase camera sensor as well as Bluetooth pairing through a smartphone app, the suitcase knows where its owner is, and can follow along (at least on flat surfaces).

Good luck getting that poo poo through security.
