Samsung East Africa has a host of new home entertainment and utility products for its loyal customers.
The products were launched just the other day, and for the most part, they are targeting to appeal to consumers who want the very best of what the South Korean tech company has to offer.
The products can be summed up as follows: BESPOKE refrigerators that can be customized according to user preferences, new washing machines that are equipped with a ton of AI and machine learning tech to make your laundry-doing an enjoyable experience, as well as new TVs, including the 2021 model of The Frame that sits flush on your wall and churns out artistic images for your entertainment when it is not in use.
At the show, which was held in Nairobi and attended by Samsung Electronics East Africa Head of Consumer Electronics Division Mr. Sam Odhiambo, among other executives and local tech enthusiasts, Samsung showcased the Neo QLED 8K and 4K Series TV, QLED 2021 Series TV, Crystal UHD 2021 Series TV, as well as the aforementioned Frame TV and AI-powered washing machines and BESPOKE fridges.
Here are some of the features that caught our attention:
Washing machines

- AI Wash uses 4 types of sensors to sense the laundry’s weight and calculates the optimal amount of water and detergent.
- Price: they are expensive, starting from KES 82K to KES 198K.
New QLED TV
- The TVs are available in both 4K and 8K. Both resolutions are future-proof.

In the past, we always talked about Artificial Intelligence being the future of consumer electronics. At Samsung, the future is now. In July 2021 we introduced a new range of intelligent electronics and we see it fit to educate our customers on the benefits of each feature of the new electronics in order to allow them to make more informed purchase decisions. – Mr. Sam Odhiambo.
