Dear fridge, what do I buy?

Home automation refers to everything in your home that can connect to the Internet for easier access. Over the last year, this has not only become cheaper but also easier, with the launch of several products that are compatible with smartphones and smart home assistants. Here's what you should be picking and why.

Samsung wants to make sure your next fridge is going to be much more than just a fridge. It has an integrated voice assistant Bixby, a 21-inch touch screen, a bunch of sensors and cameras. The fridge can help you shop, send messages and also tell you when foods in the fridge are about to expire, through the Food Reminders app that lets you attach expiry dates to what you place inside. You can even peek into the fridge from your phone from anywhere thanks to the cameras inside the Samsung Family Hub.
Price: Rs 2,80,000
