Plan on more summer fun with Samsung connected products
Stay in the zone even when you're working OOTO
Summer pulls us in a lot of different directions, from long-awaited family trips to shuttling the kids to and from their activities. The right tech can unlock the freedom you need to help you get your work done, without sacrificing any of the fun. Galaxy Book4 Series is the portable and powerful laptop that looks as good in a carry-on as it does poolside. It has the power to handle anything work throws at you and then some. Don’t let your productivity wane if you’re on the road. Use Multi Control on Galaxy Book4 to merge screens¹ with Galaxy S24 Ultra so they can act as one device. You can seamlessly transfer work files or all your vacation pics from your phone to Galaxy Book4 with a simple drag and drop.
Host guests all summer with your personal brigade of AI kitchen appliances
Sometimes you have travel plans to exotic destinations, and sometimes the whole neighborhood hears about your outdoor party and shows up. When you have company over this summer, there’s no reason you can’t also spend time out of the kitchen, maximizing your fun. Samsung’s Bespoke AI kitchen appliances help make hosting more efficient and much easier. Put Samsung Family Hub+⁴ in the center of your home so you can control all your connected appliances, like the Samsung Induction Range, directly from its touch screen. You can even take a peek inside your fridge without opening the door to save on energy. Having trouble coming up with a meal to feed your guests? Search for recipes, create shopping lists and even preheat the oven right from the Family Hub+ screen. Your oven will even let you know it’s ready to start cooking and notify you on your SmartThings-connected device⁵ with a friendly text, so you can get back to getting in that quality time.
This summer, go on a once-in-a-lifetime trip, over and over again
Even if you don’t have plans on travelling to a tropical locale this summer, it doesn’t mean you can’t still go on an adventure. With Samsung Neo QLED 8K, you can experience a world of entertainment in stunning clarity right from your couch. Its AI-based algorithms⁶ help create HDR-like quality with brighter highlights and details for a more engaging watching experience.
If you are planning on taking a trip and want to bring cinematic entertainment on the road, look no further than Multi Control. Just connect The Freestyle to a device like The Freestyle 2nd Gen with Gaming Hub or Galaxy Tab S9, point it at a surface and enjoy your stunning, life-size content.⁷ It’s a portable⁸ smart theater that you can take anywhere — from a campsite to grandma’s house. And with Gaming Hub included, you can even project and stream your favorite games without a console and challenge Grandma to a battle.
Spotless house, spotless mind
Between running the kids around, summer trips and hosting, you have enough to think about this summer. The last thing you need to be concerned with is whether you forgot to start the laundry while you’re out at a ballgame with the family. The Samsung Bespoke Ultra-capacity AI Washer and Dryer takes the worry out of the equation, letting you manage virtually everything from your connected device. Not sure if you hit the dry cycle before you left? Just open the SmartThings app and double check. Plus, AI Optiwash™ automatically senses fabric type to adjust cycle and detergent for the perfect clean⁹ so you can keep your mind on the balls and strikes, not on the delicates and stains.
Head into a healthier summer
If you’re going to make the most of summer, first you need to make sure your mind and body are ready. You can’t spend all day at the gym, but you can keep an eye on your fitness with Galaxy Watch6 on your wrist. Planning on doing some sight-seeing this summer? Connect Galaxy Buds2 Pro to Galaxy Watch6 and stream your favorite tunes while getting your workout on and your steps in. Galaxy Watch6 helps you focus on your heart rate¹⁰ so you won’t get winded when you’re making your way up an old lighthouse or through a new city on your summer getaway.¹¹
Keep your pets close, no matter how far you go
Leaving your pets behind when you’re on vacation is like leaving a part of the family behind. Even if they’re being taken care of while you’re not there, it’s only natural to worry about them. This summer, put your mind at ease and snap a Samsung Smart Tag2 on their collar — they work just as well on animals as they do on personal items like backpacks or keychains. While it’s attached, you’ll know that your pets are exactly where they’re supposed to be, and you can focus on enjoying the trip.¹² If you want to keep an eye on them while you’re out and keep your place clean at the same time, Jet Bot AI+ ’s front camera can livestream in real time using the SmartThings app while it effortlessly sucks up pet hair. Its AI tech automatically senses the floor type to make sure you come back to a clean home. Let Jet Bot AI+ do the hard work while you relax hundreds of miles away.
School’s out for summer, but that doesn’t mean that you don’t still have plenty to do. Whether you have trips planned or your kids’ schedules to manage, there’s even more on your plate than ever before. That makes summer the perfect time to partner up with Samsung tech to help you connect to what matters and make the most of your time with family and friends.
