If you want your air conditioner to blend seamlessly into your home, LG has a new aircon coming to CES 2023 that's just for you. The LG ARTCOOL Gallery features a 27-inch LCD that can show personalized content to match the season. You can change up what's displayed through the LG ThinQ app. The app can also serve as a remote for this aircon. 

This appliance promises energy-efficient cooling and heating using LG's Dual Inverter Compressor and three-way indirect airflow. Noise levels are as low as 20 decibels. It has a hidden bottom vane that closes when in sleep mode to dampen the noise further. The ARTCOOL Gallery also promises fresh airflow with LG's AI Dry feature, which automatically sets optimal drying times based on operation time and mode selection. It removes any moisture formed in the aircon. LG will showcase the ARTCOOL Gallery at its CES 2023 booth (#15501) at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

If Pokémon is more your thing than Star Wars, Samsung also has a holiday treat for you. There are a bunch of Pokémon-themed accessories for the Galaxy Z Flip4, Galaxy Buds2 Pro, and Galaxy Watch5 Series. The new accessories are inspired by Pokémon from the Kanto region and, of course, there's a Poké Ball, too. The Galaxy Z Flip4 Ring Cover has four beloved Pokémon characters on the silicone case. It's available for US$50 (around CA$70). There's also a new Poké Ball Watch Strap for the Galaxy Watch5. That costs US$40 (~CA$55).

Meanwhile, Galaxy Buds2 Pro owners (or those with the Galaxy Buds2, Galaxy Buds Live, and Galaxy Buds Pro) can get a Poké Ball Cover for your pair of earbuds. Not only is it a cute case, but it also helps protect your earbuds. This also retails for US$40. These accessories are coming to the US this December 26.
