In the age of smart mobile devices, artificial intelligence, and electric vehicles, manufacturers seem to be moving away from traditional door mechanisms. Grabbing handles and pulling on doors is slowly becoming a thing of the past, but Samsung is trying to stay ahead of the curve. Here is one example.
Every one of Samsung's new Bespoke refrigerators, whether powered by AI or not, and regardless of whether or not it comes with Family Hub, boasts Auto Open Door. As the name implies, Auto Open Door is a feature that makes opening the doors on Bespoke refrigerators a breeze.
Samsung's Bespoke line has ended the all-familiar feeling of pulling on the fridge's door handle and fighting the magnets and the internal vacuum to get the fridge door to open. We've all experienced the “sticky” door phenomenon at some point. Bespoke does away with that.
Bespoke fridge doors unseal with a light touch
Samsung demonstrated this Auto Open Door technology in a short video a few months back. You can check it out below.
How does it work? Simple enough. Unlike your usual traditional fridge, Bespoke fridges are equipped with a door touch sensor. When this sensor is touched, the door's seal is released, and users can then open the door fully without much effort. It's kind of similar to what you'd find on some modern cars.
This is one of the many quality-of-life features offered by Samsung's Bespoke line of home appliances, and it's not even related to advanced AI features or any of that other stuff. It's simply a touch-based mechanism that just works and makes it easier to open fridge doors. Quite thoughtful.
If you're looking for a new fridge, Samsung's Bespoke line for 2024 is available for pre-order at significant discounts. Regardless of which Bespoke fridge you choose, you will get the Auto Open Door technology.
However, not every Samsung fridge model is the same as the next, so make sure you pick the right one. Some Bespoke fridges embedded cameras and monitors, others do not. And some Bespoke fridges come with an AI capable of detecting food items and more, while others don't.
