Samsung has launched additional Bespoke AI appliances for 2025. These join other products in the new lineup revealed earlier this year at CES and KBIS. Regardless of device, each product in this year’s lineup emphasizes three key features: AI-enhanced convenience, better connectivity, and stylish modern designs.

The first new smart home product is the Bespoke AI Laundry Vented Combo, which claims to be the industry’s first vented all-in-one washer-dryer. This innovative product eliminates the need to transfer clothes between machines. It features a 7-inch AI Home LCD touchscreen, making it easy to control cycles and settings with a drum capacity of 5.3 cu. Ft., it delivers powerful cleaning in just 68 minutes.

The AI Opti Wash & Dry feature automatically adjusts the settings to ensure optimal washing and drying results. For drying, the unit uses an internal heater and fan, while the Auto Open Door feature allows moisture to escape after the cycle, helping clothes to dry further. Additionally, the Flex Auto Dispense System offers convenience by automatically dispensing detergent (up to 47 loads) or a combination of detergent and softener.

Samsung also introduced the new Bespoke AI Jet Ultra Cordless Stick Vacuum. Samsung’s HexaJet motor boasts an impressive 400 AW of suction power, making it one of their most powerful cordless stick vacuums. This vacuum is ideal for whole-home cleaning with a remarkable battery life of up to 100 minutes.

The vacuum features an LCD that allows for easy monitoring and control. It also includes AI Cleaning Mode 2.0, which intelligently adjusts the suction power and brush speed based on the cleaned floor type.

A standout feature is the All-in-One Clean Station, which automatically charges the vacuum and empties the dustbin, eliminating the need for manual dirt handling. The Clean Station utilizes Air Spin Edge Technology to remove debris efficiently and traps 99.999% of fine dust particles, ensuring cleaner air in your home.

Additionally, the vacuum offers built-in Wi-Fi and SmartThings connectivity for enhanced convenience.

Previously announced Samsung Bespoke products for the year include refrigerators equipped with AI cameras to monitor food inventory and create grocery lists and ovens that recognize food and suggest the appropriate cooking settings. Additionally, Bespoke AI laundry combinations, front-load washers, and dryers with user-friendly AI home screen displays enhance the user interface. The lineup also features new kitchen ranges and more.

Ultraloq showcases the first-ever ultra-wideband smart lock at CES 2025

Ultraloq showed off two smart locks at CES 2025 -- one of which is the first smart lock to ever offer ultra-wideband (UWB) support. The Ultraloq Bolt Mission UWB + NFC uses UWB technology to unlock automatically as you approach your front door. Similar functionality already exists on other smart locks, but UWB should allow the Ultraloq Bolt Mission to be more accurate than the competition.

The Bolt Mission uses technology similar to digital car keys, and Ultraloq says it can track the keyholder’s phone location with “centimeter-level” accuracy. As your phone gets closer to the front door, the Bolt Mission can be programmed to automatically unlock, giving you a hands-free way to get inside. Better yet, because the smart lock can detect both your distance and direction from the front door, it should prevent you from accidentally unlocking the smart lock while inside your home.

Ulticam shows off three AI-powered security cameras at CES 2025

Ulticam, the new security camera brand of Xthings, revealed a lineup of three AI-powered cameras at CES 2025. The Ulticam IQ, Ulticam IQ Floodlight, and Ulticam Dot offer not just cool AI capabilities, but also free seven-day cloud storage -- which could make them a solid choice for value-minded shoppers leery about signing up for monthly storage plans.

The Ulticam IQ and IQ Floodlight are the main attractions, as they're packed with features that should pose solid competition for the best smart security cameras from Arlo, Nest, and Ring. The duo uses edge AI to quickly identify people, vehicles, and packages without needing to upload the video for server-side processing. This onboard processing should result in faster performance -- it’s also great for privacy and security, as your footage doesn’t have to leave your device.

Hubspace, Home Depot’s smart home platform, has seen impressive growth over the past few years, and that growth continued at CES 2025. Three new gadgets were revealed at the event, including a wireless power switch to control Hubspace products, a portable air conditioner, and a window-mounted air conditioner. All three are unique additions to the catalog -- and since there’s not much like them on the market, they should quickly become popular options in their respective niches.

The Hubspace Remote Switch is arguably the most useful of the three gadgets. Designed to look like a light switch, but with a removable remote controller, it works with select Hubspace light bulbs, fixtures, plugs, power sockets, surge protectors, and more. You’ll get standard on and off functions, plus access to brightness controls. Its sleek looks and versatility should make it a great choice for shoppers seeking an entry-level smart switch.
