Samsung Australia has confirmed its Micro RGB range will be available in Australia in 2026. Pricing and availability has yet to be announced.
Music Studio Series: Iconic Dot Design, Expressive Sound
For 11 consecutive years[9], Samsung has been the global leader in soundbars, driven by a commitment to engineering excellence. This foundation shapes every part of Samsung’s 2026 audio lineup, bringing together advanced acoustics, purposeful design and intelligent connectivity.
At CES 2026, Samsung is introducing two new WiFi speakers – the "Music Studio 5" and "Music Studio 7" - which reimagine cinematic sound for contemporary homes via premium designs, and enable a wide range of sound system combinations to maximise audiovisual experiences. Each model shares a timeless dot concept by renowned designer Erwan Bouroullec, inspired by a universal symbol in music and art, and grounded in Samsung’s signature aesthetic.
Music Studio 7 (LS70H model) delivers 3.1.1-channel spatial audio through left, front, right and top-firing speakers for natural 3D immersion. Samsung’s Audio Lab Pattern Control Technology reduces signal overlap for cleaner directionality, while AI Dynamic Bass Control[10] delivers deep bass with minimal distortion and Hi-Resolution Audio enables audio processing up to 24-bit/96kHz. The Music Studio 7 functions as a standalone immersive speaker or can be paired with additional compatible sound units or compatible Samsung TVs via Q-Symphony for wider stereo or a full surround-sound setup.
Music Studio 5 (LS50H model) is designed for homes where aesthetic harmony is as important as sound, offering a smaller, gallery-inspired form that complements and elevates interior spaces. Tuned by Samsung Audio Lab, it uses a 4" woofer and dual tweeters with a built-in waveguide for clear, balanced sound, while AI Dynamic Bass Control[11] deepens low frequencies without distortion. Wi-Fi casting, streaming services, voice control and Bluetooth via Samsung Seamless Codec[12] provide smart, seamless connectivity.
Samsung Australia has confirmed the Music Studio 7 and 5 will join its 2026 AV line-up in Black and White models. Pricing and availability is yet to be announced.
AI-powered appliances designed to deliver smart living: Kitchen, Laundry, Floor Care
At CES, Samsung will highlight a series of improvements in home living that merge AI-powered care and powerful hardware-supported performance. Samsung’s 2026 Bespoke AI living appliance lineup includes improved fabric care, intuitive temperature control and more convenient cleaning experiences, all designed to adapt to users’ lifestyles through seamless synergy between its devices.
At CES, Samsung will present a new Bespoke AI Refrigerator Family Hub, equipped with upgraded AI Vision functionality. The feature’s key upgrade is its functions built with Google Gemini, which marks the first time that it is being integrated into a Samsung refrigerator.
Previously, the Family Hub’s AI Vision feature could recognise up to 37 types of fresh food and up to 50 types of pre-registered processed food on-device[13].The latest version ready to be unveiled at CES is planned to even recognise processed foods without separate registration, automatically registering their names to improve convenience. Samsung aims to use this technology to detect user-labeled items, such as foods stored in personal containers, which can be added to the food list manually.
With ingredients being identified more accurately, managing the food list becomes clearer and easier than before, broadening people’s food-related experiences. At CES, Samsung plans to showcase the enhanced capabilities and new use cases of AI Vision, demonstrating the future of a truly personalised AI kitchen[14].
The 2026 Bespoke AI Laundry Combo is set to launch with upgrades that further shorten wash-to-dry cycles and enhance drying performance[15]. The Super Speed cycle leverages a high-pressure Speed Spray that improves detergent penetration and rinsing to enable fast and efficient washing, while the newly incorporated Booster Heat Exchanger delivers improved drying performance.
Additionally, the upgraded AI Wash & Dry+[16]uses multiple sensors to optimise performance for each load. It detects the weight to determine the right amount of water and detergent, identifies five fabric[17] types – including Outdoor and Denim – and monitors soil levels in real time.
This year’s new WindFree Air Conditioner incorporates AI technology[18] and Motion Wind to address the key attribute that influences customer purchasing decisions, which are wind modes[19]. The number of blades have increased from one to three, enabling airflow to be directed in multiple directions according to user preferences. The Triple Motion Wings create seven tailored wind modes, including: Max Wind, which delivers faster cooling[20]; Surround Wind, which spreads airflow evenly; Long Reach Wind, which sends cool air further[21]; and, Down Wind, which quickly drives warm air downward for faster delivery of cool air. With radar-based AI Direct and Indirect Wind modes, the system senses user presence and automatically directs or diverts airflow to enhance comfort.
A new Bespoke AI Jet Bot will come with advanced recognition technologies designed to reduce human intervention and simplify cleaning like never before. Powered by a Qualcomm Dragonwing™ processor, it offers deep learning–based AI Object Recognition[22] to better detect humans[23], cats and dogs[24], as well as hard-to-see obstacles like cables or rugs. This model also supports AI Liquid Recognition, allowing it to detect liquid spills[25] and determine whether to clean or avoid them based on the user’s set preference. Additionally, upgraded Easy Pass Wheel technology raises the body and lowers the wheels to climb thresholds of up to 60mm[26].
