CES 2020: Samsung Family Hub smart ref tips you off when you're running out of ingredients

Samsung first introduced the Family Hub smart fridge at the Consumer Electronics Show in 2016. Since then, the company has been releasing iterations that improve its capabilities. The latest update introduces some software enhancements to improve the artificial intelligence capabilities of the cameras inside the refrigerator.

The cameras inside the Family Hub smart fridge can already show you what's inside. With the AI update, the Family Hub can supposedly offer recommendations as well as help you identify what ingredients you're low on. We aren't sure though how it'll do that with ingredients kept in Tupperware.

CES 2020: Samsung to bring its vertically-rotating Sero TV to more markets

Samsung originally introduced its Sero TV in Korea, but the company plans to bring it to "several global markets" this year. Samsung hasn't indicated yet when it will be available. With its name meaning "vertical" in Korean, the 43-inch television can switch from landscape to portrait orientation, and it's a 4K display with QLED colour. The Sero TV lets you watch vertical videos from platforms like Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, and whatever portrait videos you've recorded on your phone without having to deal with the pillar boxing black bars that happen when you watch vertical videos in landscape.

The Sero has an integrated, non-removable stand, which comes with a 4.1-channel, 60-watt speaker system. Its stand offers enough vertical clearance, so the TV doesn't hit the floor when you rotate it to portrait. Samsung Galaxy phone owners can just tap their phone against the Sero's frame to start screen mirroring. iPhone users will need to use the included remote control to switch the display to portrait. The Sero does support AirPlay 2.
