Some Samsung smart refrigerators in South Korea stopped working after a faulty firmware update.
💬 On September 22, owners of Bespoke AI refrigerators received an update through SmartThings. Some units lost power, stopped cooling and became stuck on the update screen.
⏺ Samsung said the issue was caused by an error during internal testing and halted the update.
⏺ Some owners reported having to throw away spoiled food especially unfortunate ahead of Chuseok, when many households had stocked their refrigerators for the holiday.
💬 Samsung launched an emergency repair response and said the incident was limited to South Korea.
Bottom line:
Your old fridge just broke. Your smart fridge can now download an update and then break. 😂
Sometimes the smartest feature is still “Remind me later.”
