Three Samsung Products, Including Galaxy S26 Ultra, Named to TIME's "2026 Best Inventions" list
Galaxy S26 Ultra, AI Refrigerator, and Odyssey G8 Named to TIME's 2026 Best Inventions List
Samsung Electronics said on October 16 that the Galaxy S26 Ultra, the Bespoke AI Family Hub refrigerator, and the Odyssey G8 gaming monitor were named to TIME magazine's "Best Inventions of 2026" list. They were recognized in the consumer electronics, home appliances, and entertainment and gaming categories, respectively.
TIME highlighted the Galaxy S26 Ultra's Privacy Display feature as a key strength. In particular, it noted that users can choose when to activate the feature or apply it selectively to specific content, such as pop-up notifications, offering a more flexible experience than conventional privacy screen protectors.
TIME praised the Bespoke AI Family Hub's AI Vision feature, which automatically recognizes and manages food items using an internal camera. Users can easily check their food inventory through SmartThings, an AI-powered integrated connectivity platform, and manage expiration dates with AI Food Manager.
Samsung Electronics said the Odyssey G8 was recognized for its technology, which delivers detailed image quality and an immersive visual experience by supporting 6K resolution for the first time in a gaming monitor. It offers an optimal gaming experience with Dual Mode, which lets users switch freely between a 6K 165Hz ultra-high-resolution mode and a 3K 330Hz ultra-high-refresh-rate mode to suit the game genre or usage environment.
