Samsung to Unveil Next-Gen AI Home Appliances with Google Gemini at CES 2026

SEOUL, Dec. 26, 2025 /Samsung Global Newsroom/ — Samsung Electronics announced today it will showcase the next stage of its AI Home ecosystem at CES 2026 (January 6–9, Las Vegas), marking a milestone for both its Bespoke AI appliances and Google’s Gemini AI in home devices.

Samsung’s new Family Hub refrigerator will be the first major home appliance to run Google Gemini, integrating the AI chatbot into its interface for personalized food planning, recipe suggestions, and real-time inventory checks. The company will also debut a Bespoke AI Wine Cellar with a Gemini-powered AI Vision system that identifies bottles, tracks aging, and recommends pairings based on user preferences.

These products build on Samsung’s four-decade legacy of home appliance innovation—from 1980s talking fridges to today’s Bespoke AI lineup—and deepen its AI Home vision, where devices intuitively adapt to daily life. The ecosystem, centered on Samsung SmartThings, now connects over 4,500 models from 380+ partners, with ambient intelligence learning user routines to automate tasks and boost energy efficiency.

“Our next-gen AI appliances move beyond communication to true understanding,” said Hyesoon Yang, EVP of Samsung’s SmartThings division. “With Gemini, we’re making AI a natural, helpful companion in every home—freeing users from chores and adding joy to daily living”.

Samsung will demo the Gemini-powered appliances at its CES booth in the Las Vegas Convention Center.
