Samsung confirms new AC, Bespoke AI robot vacuum, and more will be announced at CES 2026

Samsung has announced it will unveil its next-generation AI-connected living lineup at CES 2026, taking place from January 6 to 9 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The company plans to highlight updates across its Bespoke AI appliance portfolio, with a focus on personalised care, improved efficiency and tighter integration between devices. The announcement matters for buyers as Samsung is positioning AI not as a standalone feature, but as a system-level upgrade that directly affects daily home use, from laundry cycles to indoor comfort and floor cleaning.

WindFree Pro Air Conditioner

Samsung’s new WindFree Pro Air Conditioner uses AI-driven airflow control to address comfort, one of the main factors influencing air conditioner purchases. The redesigned system uses three blades instead of one, enabling seven airflow modes such as faster cooling, wider air distribution and longer reach.

AI-powered features analyse room conditions, usage patterns and user presence to automatically adjust airflow direction and cooling intensity. Samsung claims its AI Energy Mode can reduce power consumption by up to 30 percent by stabilising compressor operation, positioning the model as a premium but efficiency-focused option in a competitive segment.

Bespoke AI Laundry Combo

Samsung’s 2026 Bespoke AI Laundry Combo builds on the model first introduced in 2024. The updated version shortens wash-to-dry cycles through a high-pressure Speed Spray system and improves drying efficiency with a new Booster Heat Exchanger. A new Auto Open Door+ feature automatically opens the door and circulates air after wash-only cycles, reducing the risk of odours.

AI Wash & Dry+ has also been refined. Using multiple sensors, the system adjusts water and detergent levels based on load weight, identifies five fabric types, including Outdoor and Denim, and tracks soil levels during the wash. A redesigned wide lint filter improves lint capture and is easier to clean. Samsung will offer the appliance in two variants, one with a 7-inch display and a more affordable version with a smaller 2.8-inch screen and a jog dial, broadening its appeal across price segments.

Bespoke AI AirDresser

The updated Bespoke AI AirDresser returns with stronger wrinkle reduction and smarter drying. A new Auto Wrinkle Care mode uses Samsung’s Dual AirWash and Dual JetSteam system to smooth garments quickly, while also helping reduce viruses, bacteria and odours. An intelligent drying programme adjusts timing based on load size to avoid fabric damage.

A key update is its tighter integration with the Bespoke AI Laundry Combo. Through Auto Cycle Link, the AirDresser can automatically recommend or match drying programmes once a wash cycle finishes, creating a continuous garment care workflow. The refreshed design introduces a single-body door and a 2.8-inch display aimed at easier everyday use.

Bespoke AI Jet Bot Steam Ultra

The Bespoke AI Jet Bot Steam Ultra robot vacuum introduces enhanced object and liquid recognition. Powered by a Qualcomm Dragonwing processor, it can better identify people, pets and common obstacles like cables and rugs. New liquid recognition allows the robot to detect spills and either clean or avoid them based on user preferences.

Samsung has also upgraded its mobility system, enabling the robot to climb higher thresholds, which is particularly relevant for homes with mixed flooring or raised transitions.

Together, these products reflect Samsung’s broader strategy to build a connected home ecosystem that adapts to user behaviour and reduces manual intervention.

Jeong Seung Moon, Executive Vice President and Head of the R&D Team for Samsung’s Digital Appliances Business, said the new products were shaped by long-term customer feedback and in-house research. According to the company, the goal is to make everyday interactions with appliances more intuitive rather than adding complexity.

If you are considering an upgrade, the announcements suggest Samsung is prioritising practical AI use cases over headline features, with a clear focus on time savings, comfort and reduced effort. More details on availability and regional pricing are expected closer to the show.
