In the U.S. MEDIA J.D. POWER refrigerator satisfaction survey, Samsung ranked first in the door refrigerator category, and was also ranked in the U.S. Consumer Reports and Reviewed.com's annual "Best Buy" refrigerators.
 
However, Samsung has not launched many refrigerator products in the domestic market, and the products are polarized. Most Samsung refrigerators are low-end in performance and function, such as three-door refrigerators priced at about 3000 yuan, which is not cost-effective, and the price is enough to buy the top products of domestic three-door refrigerators, or Panasonic with stronger performance. The door and cross door of more than 10,000 yuan have novel functions and high-end accessories, which have their unique advantages.
 
Samsung compressors
 
Domestic refrigerator compressors often use brands such as Embraco, Garcibela, Zanussi, Panasonic, Huangshi Dongbei, etc., and the market competition is extremely fierce. Samsung compressors are often ignored and forgotten, however, on the international stage, Samsung occupies more than half of the market share of intelligent inverter compressors, with stable quality, and is the most well-known compressor brand.
 
Only Samsung refrigerators in China use their own compressors, and mastering compressor technology is an extremely important advantage in refrigerator design. None of the many refrigerators that sell well in the country can reach this point. However, Samsung refrigerators below 4,000 yuan actually do not use their own compressors, and their power consumption is at the middle and lower level of the industry. Before purchasing, it is recommended to ask the merchant if the compressor is imported for Samsung.
 
Gourmet window design
 
Korean refrigerators have unique and novel designs and are well recognized by the Korean market. The design of the gourmet window is the evolution of the door-in-door design, which is more energy-efficient than the traditional folio door. How to reduce the loss of air conditioning and make it easier to access food is the main direction of its new refrigerator design.
 
However, the freshness effect of Samsung and LG is relatively average, and most of them are blindly humidified, which is obviously different from Japanese brands. If families don't eat salads or buy vegetables very often, then Japanese products will have a better preservation effect.
 
Multi-cycle refrigeration
 
Japanese refrigerators generally use single-cycle refrigeration, and refrigeration and freezing use the same cold air for circulation. Samsung, on the other hand, uses multi-cycle refrigeration in most of its products, with its side-by-side doors and French products basically dual-cycle refrigeration, while cross-side doors use three-cycle refrigeration.
 
Multi-cycle refrigeration is equivalent to a separate circulation of air in one area, which can effectively reduce the cross-odor of products in different areas. Japanese people are accustomed to boxing flavored ingredients or sealing them with plastic wrap, so the design does not focus on multi-circulation. In addition to Samsung, most of the products of Bosch, Siemens, and Whirlpool also adopt a dual-cycle design.
 
Samsung's flagship
 
Samsung's flagship products are not distinctive, and they lack a signature design that can hold the scene, which makes them seem relatively bland.
 
The flagship smart cross refrigerator is not uncommon at first glance, and the smart screen has been applied in domestic miscellaneous refrigerators, but the screen is currently the most powerful design, supporting voice control and text touch input. It also adds a food reminder function to set recommendations or customize the storage days for different types of ingredients, and remind them to use or clean up in time before they expire.
 
The built-in camera is even more amazing, and when the refrigerator door is closed, it can automatically capture the inside of the refrigerator. When shopping for groceries, you can remotely understand the food reserves at home by linking a mobile phone app. The fridge is perfect for a dining room or open kitchen where you can add a little music or video to your cooking or meal.
 
Samsung's refrigerators all use inverter compressors, which have good energy efficiency, and its multi-cycle model is especially recommended. However, after-sales is the weakness of Samsung refrigerators, and its evaluation on the e-commerce platform is low, which is not as good as the after-sales service of domestic manufacturers.
