Samsung Electronics plans to showcase its latest Bespoke kitchen appliances at CES 2026, highlighting an upgraded vision-based artificial intelligence system built with Google Gemini and Google Cloud. The lineup includes new versions of the Bespoke artificial intelligence refrigerator, over-the-range microwave and slide-in range, with refreshed designs and a focus on simplifying everyday kitchen tasks. Jeong Seung Moon, executive vice president and head of the R&D team for the digital appliances business, said the collaboration with Google Cloud is intended to push innovation further and improve consumer experiences in the coming year.
The new Bespoke artificial intelligence Refrigerator Family Hub will feature an upgraded artificial intelligence Vision system that marks the first integration of Google Gemini into a refrigerator. The company explains that previously, it could recognize up to 37 types of fresh food and 50 types of pre-registered processed food on-device.[2] The latest version to be shown at CES is designed to overcome those limitations by recognizing more food items, including processed foods without separate registration, and automatically registering their names. Samsung also aims for the system to detect user-labeled items so foods stored in personal containers can be added to the food list, enabling clearer and easier food management and new personalized artificial intelligence kitchen use cases.
Samsung will also introduce the Bespoke artificial intelligence Wine Cellar, which uses a similar artificial intelligence Vision system built with Google Gemini.[3] When users store or remove wine bottles, a camera at the top of the unit will recognize labels and track bottles, updating the SmartThings artificial intelligence Wine Manager accordingly and distinguishing the specific shelf and compartment where each bottle sits. Through the artificial intelligence Wine Manager, users will be able to look up wine information and receive pairing suggestions based on their inventory. To create a unified kitchen aesthetic, Samsung is unveiling French door refrigerators, slide-in ranges and new over-the-range microwaves with a cohesive stainless-look finish. The new Bespoke artificial intelligence 3-Door French Door refrigerator features a zero clearance fit, which can be installed with side gaps of approximately 4mm.[5] Additionally, its door depth has been reduced by 50mm compared to the conventional 3-Door model,[6] which the company says enables full access to drawers and food items with the doors wide open.[7] Visitors to Samsung’s CES 2026 booth will be the first to see these appliances and their integrated artificial intelligence features.
