Some Samsung smart fridges stopped working on Tuesday due to a firmware update.

Korean outlets were the first to report the problems, which affect Samsung’s Bespoke AI line of fridges. Star News Korea, per a Google-provided translation, said that most of the affected devices were four-door fridges from 2024 or later.

      Had a freezer fixed on warranty recently. What needed replacing? An electric heater. Yes the freezer has a heater in it!

      (It’s for the anti frost feature.)
