[@andriespoelman264]

So, if I make a simple Excel sheet with a list of what is in my fridge, give every item an expiry date and add a formula to go yellow when getting close to it and red when passed that day, I save at least 1600 pounds. Cool, might spend that on a nice holiday instead.

[@alexsis1778]

Agreed. I honestly think it might be useful for them just because you have a lot of people interacting in a food based setting and they're not all there on an every day basis. For an actual family using it on a daily basis? I don't see the point. Literally nothing it does I'd want my fridge to do. Also as someone who deals with computer security, "smart" devices like this make me cringe. They're a hackers paradise.

​@@SortedFoodAlso, i'm sure you guys already talked about this, but if you truly did want to return the fridge but couldn't fathom the trek down the stairs😂, then why not rent a dolly? Idk if the UK has good services like that, but U-Haul in the US can give you a dolly, and with one to two people making sure it doesn't slide back, and one to two people keeping it stable from the front, you could get that thing down stairs with relative ease! Relative to how difficult it must have been to get it up them!😂 You just gotta have some cushion on the back of the dolly for when it slides down the edge of each step (especially considering that I highly doubt you guys own the building...)

if you think about it, a phone with the sidekick app can do basically everything this fridge does in a more convenient way apart from looking inside the fridge and keeping the pantry dates on that note, if sidekick would add a feature like this, where you can add the things you have and their expiry dates that would be super cool

[@Summergch]

That was my thought as well. They found a great opportunity there, adding the manual version of "expiry list" to sidekick could be a way to skip the 1600 pounds and get the singular useful feature (at the time) that this fridge has

[@captain_rae]

Definitely agree, they should add the expiry feature to Sidekick. Can they get away with that though? 😅

[@L14M17]

IF it detected the different items with the camera and could set the dates automatically then maybe it could be useful but if you are going to through the trouble of doing it on the fridge tablet you would probably take less time writing it on the phone/chalk marker/paper/shopping ticket ( where you already have the items written) 😂😂. And if they fix the code scanning with the phone I'm sure they'll make you have the "smart" fridge and not the normal version to be able to use it.

[@Jigkuro]

Yep! And if you want it digital, sortable, viewable from the store, able to add by telling alexa/etc? Just use your phone! Why pay thousands for your fridge to come with an app when you could just *get an app?* These will *always* be a waste no matter how much "better" they get unless they get to the (currently impossible) point of automatically knowing what you're adding and removing because every feature doesn't need to be tied to the fridge itself. Disappointed they have it so much credit, tbh.

[@sirBrouwer]

@@L14M17 it would become useful if they would have that on a big cold storage room for in professional (production) kitchens. Like let it keep track of the produce both by date and quantity. keep a constant report on temperature. Keeps track when and how the storage room is cleaned and maintained. Plus preorder or sends a preorder list to the head chef for certain foods. also in that case a touchscreen next to the door could make sense. even the current thing if worked more out could help in a smallish production kitchen if the tablet part would work better and is guaranteed a long time to work well.

[@soasertsus]

@@Jigkuro I think that is possible or will be possible soon, there's already AI that can do similar functionality. If it had better cameras and could send the input to an AI to track and automatically tag everything in there and find recipes that use those ingredients, then sure it might be useful I guess. But as it stands it seems like a half baked pointless product to me.

[@lolly166541]

Honestly, that feature regarding the tracking of things - that's something you'll use for the first month or two and then start slowly decreasing the usage until it's just... a normal fridge again. It's the same with Alexa, Google Pod thing and what else they're called... in the beginning you use it for anything and now it's just there 😆

[@KhronicD]

I feel like if they can get the scanning app working properly, and possibly integrate AI detection of common foodstuffs, it'll be a lot less manual than it seems to be now. That's where it'll start to shine, when you don't have to think about it so much. Of course, all the usual concerns still exist, like, do you want the entire world to potentially know what's in your fridge? Probably doesn't matter, but if there's a camera and it's connected to the internet, someone will figure out how to hack it just for the lulz. ;)

[@violetskies14]

Yeah I mean I love my Alexa, I'm disabled and really enjoy being able to control things like lights without getting up or waiting for a carer but other than that it mainly gets used as a speaker. Occasionally my little brothers call me using the one in their room which is nice since they're too young to have phones. I think the fridge will basically end up the same, you'll use the bits and bobs for a month or so but eventually it'll just be a fridge with a speaker in it and you might as well have a regular fridge with a £25 alexa on top and a whiteboard stuck to the front.

[@SheepdogSmokey]

And they mentioned that the app is new so it's not "up to speed" yet. Out Of Milk is a shopping list app I tried years ago, and at first, it didn't recognized store brand UPC's, but it does now, so like they said, given time you'll see it start working more seemlessly.

[@justjane2070]

[@htrish88]

I'm disabled and my husband is not and we have 3 Alexa devices around our house and I still want 1 or 2 more for my husbands office and the garage, 1 in the living room, 1 in my craft room, and 1 in our bedroom that also has a clock built in and we use them several times a day to turn on and off lights, set timers, check the weather, view the backyard camera, view the doorbell camera, check the status of the washer and dryer, and so much more. While some may not use their devices often we use them to run our house basically. Everything is basically done by voice so that I can be independent. Now I definitely understand we are a special use case and that not everyone will be in a situation like ours.

[@maromania7]

Fixing these hunks of junk was part of my job, so I had my review ready: Run. Modern fridges have short enough lifespans before you strap a screen onto hot tubing , cold, and moisture. Then I saw it was a SAMSUNG. At which point...see you next year for next review? Likely a few days after the warranty ends. I once pulled up a poor woman's schematic and found 13 sensors daisy-chained. All the same sensor but with slightly different connections, and if any of them went out the whole compartment was gone. I guess they just relied on the fact that 1/13 sensors was bound to break sooner rather than later, got them on the news less than part quality fiascos. and with very small sensor differences you'd have to pay them $100+ for a 5 minute repair on a $10 part (which was already highway robbery). Maybe they're different across the pond, but "Don't buy a Samsung refrigerator" is quite literally the FIRST advice I give people.

[@esmeecampbell7396]

They're made in South Korea so likely the exact same thing that's sold to the USA but with a different plug component. Generally Samsung is good quality though, with longer warranty than most UK products. Essentially anything else you'd be buying would be Beko (cheap Turkish) or Smeg (made in Britain) which is code for "badly assembled somewhere in the Midlands"

[@The_Keeper]

@@esmeecampbell7396 You haven't dealt with a lot of Samsung's "high-tech" products I see. (well that, or you got extremely lucky). Every Samsung smart device breaks more or less as soon as the warranty expires. Although, some of them just randomly catch fire before that. And if they don't break, you'll get the urge to break them yourself soon enough with the omnipresent Ads on the device, probably from the truckload of shovelware on them Their "low tech" products are good, though.

[@maromania7]

@@esmeecampbell7396 Yeah, I do specify refrigerators because of that. They're good at making electronics, my phone's samsung and I've been happy with it for years. The issue comes when extended periods of tempeture changes, moisture, etc get involved. To be fair, that breaking part is not unique to them. The trickery involved is what rubs me wrong in particular. Most just say "fix it yourself and you void the warranty" instead of trying to trick post-warranty customers who try to be handy. Though I guess I'm biased since I was in diagnostic and part sales for a while, nobody's happy when a tech has to charge to remove 6 screws and plug something in. And oof, yeah, quality is relative I suppose. Like how the guy who trained me had a nasty scar from some Australian import dryer. They apparently used razor-sharp sheet metal on the internals, I guess to stop self repair by just removing handy people's fingers (kidding of course, definitely a cost-cutting measure).

I have this fridge, it's two years old now. I love it. I don't use half the features but the ones I do use I can't imagine not having anymore. Plus it keeps my kids from being under foot while I'm cooking because they can draw on it 😂

I know, right. Having to put yourself out to save the planet is just so annoying. What about ME!

[@austin.paquette]

If all of the expiry management is manual... what's the difference from just doing all of that data entry in the notes app on your phone? Also I love how responsive the touch screen is. They seem to be sourcing the SOCs from the same chip line that car manufacturers use Smart fridges are just an excuse for you to spend more money on crap you don't need. Also don't forget about how much new data they have on you!

[@LordDragox412]

Smart fridges are just an excuse for companies to find more ways to play ads. Oh, the smart camera detected you have apples in the fridge. Time to play overpriced apple juice ad! Oh, you keep buying non-brand items? You must be poor. Time to play loan company ad! :P

[@GCOSBenbow]

They're also horrifically insecure. Its too easy to get into the speakers of smart fridges and TVs and they can also provide easy access to wifi/home assistant networks which can give control over to alarm systems, lighting. The idea of a smart home is great but it really doesn't work in this consumerist life we're living.

[@Eeveelyn]

And more stuff that can break right after your warranty has expired and the repair is going to cost at least half the price of a new one or they will tell you they don't have the replacement parts anymore. If they feel like taking extra advantage of people they will offer a small discount to buy a new one from their official site. Of course that price is still much higher than if you buy from anywhere else.

[@leapintothewild]

Yep, just reminds me of how angry my dad got when he couldn’t get a truck with lever-rolling windows anymore - just another damn thing to break that we can’t fix ourselves!

@@leapintothewild he’s a sensible man. Wing mirrors and seats also don’t need any electrical bits, only makes them more expensive. No need for an automated tire pressure sensor, doors can be opened with keys… a new wing mirror for my car costs 400€. One for my old car cost me 20 for a used one and another 10 to have it installed.

As an owner of multiple Samsung products, every time you said Hey Bixby my phone would start trying to do stuff. That was funny, but I'm also happy you never asked your fridge to, idk, mail all my photos somewhere I wouldn't want them to be

[@youtubeSuckssNow]

Fuck Bixby, so glad I remapped that button to do nothing.

[@Andersl201]

Now that you tested that, buy a car with a smart cupholder that keeps your coffee warm. The only way I'm getting a smart fridge is if it's gifted AND my current fridge is broken beyond repair.

[@sashasscribbles]

Thank you for this video! I now know that I definitely dont really care for smart fridges haha That being said, the feature where you can scan items to have them automatically added to the fridge's list; that seems like one of the most helpful features and I look forward to the day it works seemlessly

[@kimpoesse6699]

Jamie... Hey bixby how much time is ..Starts dancing (Jamies version of oh look squirrel) 😂😂😂😂

[@TheBazino]

What needs to happen for this to make sense: 1) All supermarkets using the same barcodes around the world including expiration dates 2) All supermarkets printing the barcode of each item on the receipt 3) The fridge being able to scan the supermarket receipt and by that already having all expiration dates loaded Until this happens, not useful, let alone worth the money.

[@theshiftybloke4672]

Can't store that much info on a barcode! Everything would have to be a QR code to some universal website that lists every product produced by man

[@GCOSBenbow]

Technically it should be possible to encode a barcode or QR code with all your items anyway (which would 100% cut down on printing costs/waste). Then the fridge could scan that one part and have all the items you bought at the shops; but then there are certain people that store bread, eggs and butter in the fridge and some that don't. So the fridge would need to ask 'do you keep this in the fridge' for basically every new item it sees which also means supermarkets/shops would all have to identify each variant as a category of 'x' so all types of apples are labelled as an apple for example. I think the complexity needed to actually make this feature worthwhile for the majority of people is too much to make it worth coding. Honestly just better off using your phone, every voice assistant can already set reminders etc. You can just make a new google calendar or w.e called 'use by' or something and ask your phone assistant to remind you that 'chicken breasts will expire tomorrow'. Takes as much if not less time than trying to choose what you actually care about enough to want a tracker/reminder.

[@Bozebo]

All UK retailers use GS1 barcode standards already. There's something wrong with that app.

[@Curiomerc]

Or just have it recognize the item you're putting into it. Stuff like this is where ai technology is useful and practical. It's still going to be hard to justify it, there's no reason for a fridge to be "smart".

[@ToniHinton]

@@BozeboI use Samsung’s SmartThings to control my smart home devices. A lot of the features Samsung offers in ST are limited to (at least at the beginning) US and South Korea. I wouldn’t be surprised if that was the case here, too.

[@jennesworthy3823]

I absolutely love sorted food. Your videos always brighten my day... until today. I own a Samsung phone and when I bought it, I worked very hard to shut off the Bixby feature. While you were testing your new fridge, and and saying hey Bixby, you guys restarted my Bixby feature. My phone was trying to respond to you. I had to hide the darn thing for the duration of the video. Now, with all that being said, I still my boys and can't wait for your next video.

[@csmitty3517]

I would love you gents to reveiw retro fridge styles and designs. Some of the utility that used to be in the fridges of the 50s thru 70s were astounding.

[@LizzieMcgraw]

thanks for sharing, you inspired me to try something new

[@MikeThomassen]

Great video, again :) Regarding wasting less food by having expire dates on the fridge, I do that manually... I have a whiteboard on my fridge where I write expire dates on diary, meats and toppings for bread. That way I never forget to use the stuff... I do, however, sometimes forget to remove an item from the list when I've used it, and I suddenly get anxious thinking my milk has gone badly over time, when I have in fact already used it and everything is great ;)

[@wyliecapp]

I have an older model smart fridge that doesn't have the camera or screen, but it does have some functionality like wireless connectivity so you can monitor the temp and change it, set a few features. The biggest feature I love is the alarm feature. When the fridge is left open for more than 2 minutes, it sets off a chime alarm to let you know. My kids are young and leave it open constantly and even I do it by accident when I close the door and turn too quick to verify that it's actually closed. Saves a lot on electricity and possible spoiled food

[@Apocalypz]

So glad you've purchased the Samsung version ... so we can see if the failure rate within the limited warranty does well. 😉
