  You carry a phone that supports these features in your pocket. Fridges don’t need screens imho

    Blah blah blah, I don’t like the form factor so it’s unneeded. You people are insufferable.

    Guess what, it is easier to look directly forward on an always on screen that’s going to have a common display like a family calendar of events for that day while I’m preparing my family for the day. I don’t have to find and unlock my phone, I don’t have to wash my hands and open up a calendar app. It’s right there, front and center, where it needs to be for the task.

    Not everyone has their reflection burned into the screen holding them all day. Some people actually leave them in other rooms!

      Yes, some of us go screen to screen and therefore need screen on every appliance in our house! /s 😆

        This is not untrue haha, however it’s usually a more productive use of the screen at least 🤣.

    But then you need to use cloud services to sync with your family/roommates/etc. Not everyone lives alone.

      So how are you gonna access the shopping list on the fridge when you are in the store (without using cloud services)? Taking a screenshot of sticky notes on the fridge works as good as taking a screenshot of the fridge screen. So in both cloud connected and not clod connected scenarios, the fridge screen is not needed and functions as a gimmick.

        For just $15.99/month/user, you can store up to one thousand bytes of text in our super unsecured cloud service, and access it remotely with our Galaxy Pro Platinum Gold Fold Unfold Refold Defold Sync Edition!

        *unavailable with any other devices, only available on our latest halo product, when we release the Galaxy PPGFURDSE 2026 in 3 months your device will become unavailable to sync with the fridge. Only available in 2, 3, and 5 year subscriptions, but we will kill the service after 17 months, no refunds.

        Samsung. Because fuck you~.

  It there was any hope for these being useful that would have integrated with the mobile experience the same way CarPlay did.

  These are it a tv screen on a fridge with a channel that is for the fridge, these are all proprietary junk that it’s the antithesis for a smart home because they control it not the home owner.
