All-Round Cooling

In refrigerators that have All Round Cooling, separate cooling circuits are used to keep your food fresher. Conventional fridges samsung have one evaporator that cools both the freezer and refrigerator compartment. This usually means that the low humidity air from your freezer is pumped into your fridge, and can cause your foods to dry out. This can make the food taste bland and unpleasant.

With All Round Cooling, each shelf level has multiple vents which circulate cool air. This helps maintain a consistent temperature even when you open and shut the fridge door.

Optimal Fresh zone keeps meats and seafood fresher for two times longer than in conventional refrigerators, without freezing. This feature is an exciting option for anyone who enjoys cooking but hates the hassle of defrosting frozen meat or fish.

All Round Cooling uses a metal cooling plate in the back of the fridge to hold the cold air and stop it from being lost when you open the refrigerator door. It also reduces your need for power defrosting, saving you both time and money.

Samsung refrigerators come with one of the most effective ice makers we've tried. The patented Twist Ice Maker dispensing large cubes is operated with one simple twist. It can be kept below the fridge when not in use. This makes more space on the shelf and makes it easy to locate your favorite snacks and drinks.

You can select which way your fridge and freezer open with Reversible Doors. This lets you easily accommodate your fridge within the kitchen layout and keep your fridge neat and tidy.

Samsung's Family Hub is the central control of your SmartThings-connected home. It uses a large touchscreen mounted on your refrigerator.

Samsung refrigerators feature flexible drawers on the bottom, which are an intelligent storage solution. They make it easy to store taller items, such as pizza trays and cans of drinks. They can be flipped down when not in use, and folded flat to use less space. This is a great option for those who like to cook and bake, but have limited refrigerator storage space.

FlexZone

The Samsung FlexZone side by side fridge freezer has a unique 3-zone system, which allows you to add an additional refrigerator compartment or freezer drawer. This flexibility lets you design the fridge freezer to suit your storage needs and requirements.

This fridge has the FlexZone bottom-right compartment that can be converted into a freezer or refrigerator. This gives you extra space to store items in the freezer, such as ice cream bags of frozen vegetables and meat or fish. It did well in our tests, too, but the lack of voice control and SmartThings integration on the 21.5-inch touchscreen was a missed opportunity.

There's plenty of room to store food in the refrigerator's other drawers which includes two drawers for crisps and a FlexZone that can be customized as a middle drawer. The latter lets you choose from five different settings for the fridge-freezer drawer depending on your preferences. There is the freeze setting that is compatible with the freezer settings as well as an option for a soft freeze setting on wine or deli tray, a meat and fish setting as well as an alcohol setting for snacks, drinks and other items that are frequently accessed.

SmartThings

SmartThings isn't quite the platform that Alexa and Google Assistant are however it does offer a lot of smart devices that you can connect to. It's also baked into Samsung smartphones televisions, tablets, and tablets plus some fridges. It could be enough to warrant it for some, especially when you own a variety of Samsung Fridge And Freezer products.

The SmartThings app is a bit elegant and well-rounded, with a 'if x then y' automation section that performs surprisingly well. You can set up things such as alarms that go off when sensors for water leaks detect the presence of a flood, or turn on a light when your phone senses you're at home. It could even control your refrigerator, if you connect it to a smart outlet, however we've had mixed results with that.

SmartThings requires a hub, which isn't inexpensive. Samsung has a range of models, including the SmartThings Station, which you can attach to your router, and can be used as an nightlight. There's a cheaper SmartThings hub dongle that can support Z-Wave, Zigbee and Thread.

Once you've got your smart fridge, smartphone and hub connected it's easy to use. The SmartThings app lets you manage your fridge from anywhere and sends notifications to your phone whenever it's opened or closed. You can set up schedules as well as set the temperature and even create reminders.

SmartThings was a founding member in the Home Connectivity Alliance. This alliance is working towards making the most important home appliances from various manufacturers compatible. In the near future, you could control your Samsung washer/dryer, Samsung fridge and freezer Electrolux oven, and LG TV from the same application.

While it's not as well accepted as Alexa and Google Assistant, SmartThings does have a few big hitters on its roster that include Arlo, Nest, Belkin and Lifx. It's also compatible with Matter, an open protocol that allows devices to be paired regardless of brand. The best choice for most users is to combine Alexa and Google Assistant.

Family Hub

This fridge freezer is the most modern that you can buy. It has a 21-inch touchscreen integrated into the door, and comes with a variety of clever features. You can access entertainment apps, write notes for family members (think a huge digital version of a notepad stuck to the fridge), check weather updates and more, thanks to Samsung's own voice assistant, Bixby.

The touchscreen allows you to manage recipes and food. You can add ingredients directly from an app and check out the contents of your fridge with internal cameras. You can also create an inventory list of items on the go and monitor foods to see when they'll expire. You can use an app for recipe reading to read the recipe while you cook.

This is the second generation of Family Hub fridges and Samsung claims it has spent a year perfecting them based on customer feedback. One key change is that you can now set different profiles for each household member so they can tailor the information and apps they can access. It's not as good as Alexa integration into your fridge but it is an improvement over last year's model.

Besides its ability to manage grocery and entertainment, Family Hub also acts as an interface for samsung fridges prices's SmartThings platform. It can be used to control Matter-compatible devices, such as lights and plugs as well as locks.

Samsung's refrigerator is a few years old, and, although it still has a lot of functionality but its touchscreen features aren't a feature many people would consider to be essential. These are more of a fun and somewhat frivolous addition than anything else.

This may change with the release of more software updates, but at present, these models are best for those who wish to have the most complete connected refrigerator that is possible. If you're not one of those, you could choose a lower-cost model without the Family Hub to save some money. This could be worth it for you in the event that you own a lot of smart home devices that must be controlled from the same screen, or if you just enjoy the idea of having an appliance with a massive touchscreen.
