Samsung introduces upgraded AI-powered appliances at CES 2026
AI Vision upgrades enable automatic food recognition, simpler inventory management, and smart wine pairing, making everyday kitchen tasks more seamless and efficient.
Samsung Electronics will showcase its latest kitchen appliances at CES 2026, highlighting upgrades to its Bespoke AI refrigerator, over-the-range microwave, and slide-in range. The company upgraded its vision-based AI with Google Gemini and Cloud to simplify kitchen tasks and enhance the cooking experience.
The upgraded Bespoke AI Refrigerator now recognises a wider variety of foods, including processed items without separate registration, and can track user-labelled ingredients. These improvements allow for more accurate food management and personalised kitchen experiences.
Samsung will also present the new Bespoke AI Wine Cellar, which identifies wine bottles, tracks their placement, and offers pairing suggestions via SmartThings AI Wine Manager.
Samsung is also updating appliance designs, with new French Door refrigerators, slide-in ranges, and over-the-range microwaves in a unified stainless steel finish. Upgrades feature easier drawer access, better cooktop ventilation, and redesigned controls for improved safety and convenience.
Visitors at CES 2026 will have the first opportunity to explore these innovations, demonstrating Samsung’s commitment to merging technology, design, and usability in modern kitchens.
