Samsung Electronics showcased its technological competitiveness across all areas, from home appliances to semiconductors, winning 19 innovation awards, including four Best of Innovation awards, ahead of CES 2027, the world's largest consumer electronics and IT trade show, which opens in Las Vegas, U.S., next January.

Samsung Electronics said it won awards in 19 categories at the CES Innovation Awards, announced by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) on the 9th (local time), including four Best of Innovation awards and 15 Innovation Awards.

Samsung Electronics said on November 15 that it had won awards in 19 categories at the CES Innovation Awards announced by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) on November 9 local time, including four Best of Innovation awards and 15 Innovation Awards. Ahead of CES each year, the CTA selects the most innovative products and services among the entries and presents them with Innovation Awards.

Samsung Electronics was recognized across all its business areas, winning 13 awards in Visual Display, three in semiconductors, two in mobile, and one in home appliances. In particular, four products were selected for Best of Innovation awards, given to the most innovative products or technologies in each field: two in Visual Display and two in mobile. This was up from three awards last year.

In the Visual Display category, Samsung won 11 Innovation Awards in total for new products and services, including 2027 TV models, soundbars, and monitors, in addition to two Best of Innovation awards, further strengthening its global leadership in displays.

In the home appliance category, the Bespoke AI Combo all-in-one washer and dryer won an Innovation Award. Its large-capacity heat exchanger delivers powerful drying performance comparable to that of a standalone dryer. The product was also recognized for distinctive convenience features, including AI Customized+, which precisely detects the weight, fabric type, and soil level of laundry to recommend the optimal cycle, and Auto Open Door+, which automatically opens the door after washing and drying to manage moisture inside the drum.

In the mobile category, two next-generation foldable smartphones, the Galaxy Z Fold8 and Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, both won Best of Innovation awards. The Galaxy Z Fold8 maximizes usability with a screen aspect ratio optimized for watching content in everyday settings. Its 5.5-inch cover display is optimized for short-form content, while the 7.6-inch main display, revealed when the phone is unfolded, delivers an immersive experience for mobile gaming and watching high-definition video.

The Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, which also received a Best of Innovation award, is the first foldable model to use the "Ultra" name, which denotes Samsung's top-tier Galaxy flagship devices. Its large 8-inch main display provides a workspace for professional multitasking, while its high-capacity 5,000-mAh battery supports uninterrupted use for extended periods, from work and content creation to entertainment.

In the semiconductor category, the LPDDR5X SOCAMM2 and DDR5 RDIMM modules for AI servers, as well as UFS 5.0 memory for next-generation on-device AI, won Innovation Awards. LPDDR5X SOCAMM2 is a memory module with high bandwidth and low power consumption. It is a next-generation memory product designed for AI workloads, reducing memory bottlenecks and further improving graphics processing unit (GPU) utilization.

The DDR5 RDIMM, a high-performance memory module for AI data center servers, improves space and power efficiency by replacing the module's previous eight-layer configuration with a four-layer configuration using 32Gb DRAM. UFS 5.0 is high-performance, high-efficiency memory for on-device AI. Supporting high bandwidth and dramatically improving power efficiency, it is embedded memory optimized for next-generation edge AI devices.

Samsung Electronics' CES Innovation Award-winning products will be on display at the company's exhibition booth during next year's event.
