Samsung to unveil new AI-powered home appliances at IFA 2026 in Berlin

South Korean tech giant Samsung Electronics Co. announced on September 2 that it will exhibit a series of AI-powered home appliances at the IFA 2026 trade show in Berlin. The company will unveil its concept of "AI Living," which extends beyond an AI-connected home to encompass everyday life. The exhibition will be organized into three themes: entertainment, home companion, and care companion.

In the entertainment zone, Samsung will display innovative TVs and monitors with advanced display technologies. The home companion area will highlight appliances that enhance energy efficiency and optimize space utilization using AI. A notable feature is the Bespoke refrigerator, which employs camera-based AI vision to identify food ingredients and propose recipes, while also providing an energy management system for monitoring and controlling power consumption of connected appliances.

Additionally, Samsung will introduce space-efficient kitchen appliances such as an induction cooktop integrated into the hood and a built-in dishwasher.

The care companion section will showcase various Galaxy products, including the upcoming Galaxy S26 FE and Galaxy Z Fold 8 series. Visitors will have the chance to explore the Galaxy S26 FE, which is set for release on Friday.
