Insanely Expensive Stuff: The Smart Fridge, We All Need One

Samsung has been known to go smart on everything. From its high end smart phones that let you remotely control your computer and smart TV, to the digitally smart camera that automatically, wirelessly uploads your photos online. If you think that’s where all this “smart” business ends, you are mistaken, Samsung have a smart refrigerator loaded with a Wi-Fi enabled LCD screen that lets you download install app’s.

This French door refrigerator features special apps and built-in LCD Screen that helps keep your fridge organized. You can leave notes, display pictures, keep tabs of your Google calendar, access hundreds of recipes plus get latest weather and news, all from the comfort of your refrigerator.

Considering all you will get from this fridge, USD 3,699, approximately KES 314,415 is kind of low, one would actually expect a higher price, right?

If you think Samsung has out done itself, LG has probably crowned it all. LG smart manager fridge features an LCD touchscreen, camera (who needs a camera on a fridge?) and Wi-Fi.

This is how it works, when you are putting stuff in the fridge you either scan the barcodes of the items going into the fridge with a scanner on the fridge door, or by describing them via voice recognition technology.

The fridge will monitor content stored in it and automatically add food to a user’s online shopping account when stocks are running low. Take for instance you are running low on milk, the refrigerator will automatically add milk to your online shopping account.

he fridge can also suggest recipes based on the ingredients you have left and once a recipe has been chosen, the fridge will automatically switch on your oven to the correct temperature and set a timer via a wireless connection. The fridge can further tell the cook how to go about preparing the meal.

According to guardian.co.uk, this fridge retails at 2,000 Pounds, approximately KES 276,748. Another smart fridge going at a dumb price.
