Samsung Debuts a New Standard in Connectivity with Next Generation of Family Hub Refrigerator at CES 2019New Family Hub takes connected living to the next level with enhanced AI and IoT capabilities to free up more time to do the things you want MISSISSAUGA, ON, Jan. 11, 2019 /CNW/ - Samsung Electronics Canada announced today the unveiling of the next generation of its award-winning Family Hub refrigerator, continuing to innovate and redefine the refrigerator category. Family Hub continues to set a new standard for connected living, bringing the family together in the kitchen. As the new generation of homeowners look to technology to define both who they are and how they want to live their lives, there is no better place to do this than in a connected kitchen. And with the Family Hub, which offers the simplified connectivity they've grown accustomed to, families can spend more time focusing on the things that matter most to them. In 2019, with the new Family Board, a communal screen that family members can interact with in a personalized way, Family Hub helps foster true family connection, food management, and a connected home experience in today's fast-paced, modern world. "The kitchen continues to sit at the heart of many homes in Canada, and the new Family Hub brings an enhanced experience anchored in food management, family connections, and entertainment," said Warner Doell, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Digital Appliances, Samsung Canada. "Today, we are excited to bring a new level of connectivity and intelligence to the Family Hub with Bixby, providing AI capabilities that are designed to make everyday tasks much easier. Combined with our new Family Board, the Family Hub represents a new evolution in convenience and connectivity in the kitchen." Intelligence Taking intelligence a step further, with the Family Hub's seamless integration of SmartThings1, owners can now see and control hundreds of Samsung and third party smart home devices right from the refrigerator screen and by voice with Bixby. Family Connections The Family Hub also displays a dynamic screen saver that can be used to display precious family moments, important information such as the weather, or even artwork. It can also be set to blend with the décor in the kitchen. Healthier Food Management In 2019, Samsung will expand the Family Hub platform across more models to ensure that there is a Family Hub configuration that meets the different needs of its consumers. A 2019 CES Innovation Award Honouree in the Software and Mobile Apps product category, the new Family Hub will be featured at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) from January 8-11, 2019 at booth 15006 Central Hall at the LVCC.
