Samsung today announced that its SmartThings-enabled kitchen appliances will be released next month. It's going to launch a new line of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth-enabled cooktops, wall ovens and range hoods as it continues to expand its portfolio of smart kitchen appliances. They will be compatible with the SmartThings Hub which brings together other connected devices like security cameras and plugs in a single platform. These appliances won't be cheap. Prices for the cooktops start at $1,100 and at $4,000 for the double wall oven.
The new connected appliances from Samsung include double and single wall ovens, induction, gas and electric cooktops and a range hood. The range hood will use Bluetooth to automatically sync with the new cooktops so the hood's lights and fans will automatically turn on when someone starts cooking. If you're looking for more connectivity in your kitchen, why not go for Samsung's $5,600 Family Hub refrigerator which comes with a massive 21.5-inch touchscreen display right on the door. It even comes with its own set of applications that allow you to order groceries and what not.
