Key Features of Bespoke AI 2026

Regional Customization Strategy

JS Moon, Head of R&D at the DA Business, highlighted Samsung’s tailored approach for 2026. In North America, the Bespoke AI Laundry Combo and unified stainless-steel kitchen packages lead innovation. Europe prioritizes energy efficiency with the Bespoke AI washer achieving up to 65% greater efficiency than Class A minimum requirements, alongside advanced HVAC and built-in kitchen products.

Latin America sees strong momentum in laundry and air conditioning, while Asia presents major growth opportunities through smart home ecosystems and localized AI features including regional language support.

AI-Powered Energy Efficiency

Samsung’s commitment to sustainability shines through its energy-efficient appliances. The Bespoke AI washer exemplifies this approach, delivering significant energy savings while maintaining premium performance. The AI Energy Mode is expanding beyond premium lineups to make intelligent energy management accessible across various price points.

Beyond Traditional Appliances

Samsung reaffirmed its commitment to expanding beyond traditional appliances into areas such as HVAC, modular homes, insurance-based care extending the value of AI, and connectivity in new aspects of daily life, aiming to reduce household burdens through practical, trusted AI experiences.

This expansion strategy positions Samsung as a comprehensive lifestyle brand rather than just an appliance manufacturer, creating an ecosystem where every device works together to enhance daily living.

The Differentiated Experience

“Samsung’s ultimate goal is to enable better living through Bespoke AI,” said Cheolgi Kim. “Through our extensive ecosystem that connects devices across DX products – including mobile phones and TV – and our appliances’ unique form factors, we are providing differentiated experiences to our consumers.”

The SmartThings integration ensures all devices communicate seamlessly, creating an intelligent home environment that learns from user behaviors and anticipates needs. This open collaboration approach, combined with long-term software support, ensures that Samsung’s AI experiences remain relevant and valuable over time.

As the global home appliance market navigates the growing importance of AI in connected living, Samsung’s vision of Home Companions represents a significant shift from passive devices to proactive intelligent assistants that genuinely improve quality of life.
