Yeah, like I want MORE reasons to stand in front of the fridge looking confused and scared
Mate in 3 to get access to your late night yoghurt
Samsung fridges and appliances are shit
and phones can do that better anyway
Here’s a screen but the ice maker still won’t work over 1% humidity!
Oh yeah also about that screen, we’re going to ship an update that breaks the digitizer so that you can’t use the touch screen any more!
I still don’t want one.
Can you play Doom on it though?
Depends on your definition of “run”. Here’s someone that sideloaded the Xbox cloud app to run doom eternal on it (streamed from the cloud).

On the other hand, these devices are most often just running Android. So you probably can install Doom on them. In case it’s not in the app store of the device, you could just grab an apk like this and sideload it
I’m gonna. Amp out here to see if there’s a good fridge maker out there still.
Samsung, whirlpool, lg, and ge all seem to be crossed off.Bosch & kitchenaid are the two “affordable” I still trust.
Thermador, sub-zero & wolf are the not-affordable that I’ll always trust.
Sub-Zero and Wolf are the same company. Thermador and Bosch are owned by the same parent company.
KitchenAid got bought out by Whirlpool, so its trustworthiness is probably on the decline.
Anecdote time:
When I bought my house a decade and a half ago, I bought a brand-new Whirlpool dishwasher and Samsung washer and dryer pair. All three failed within a decade. (The Samsung washer in particular was egregious: when I took it apart every piece of it was pristine except for the “spider arm,” which was corroded as fuck because they obviously designed it to do so by deliberately making it out of a different metal than everything else.)
I replaced each of them with used Bosch appliances that I got for cheap (or in one case, free), and they’re all still going strong.
My expensive Samsung washer/dryer didn’t even last 6 years. Trying my luck with LG currently. Bought from Costco because they have good warranties
Same experience with Samsung here. We also had a fridge, which had a few problems under warranty but once those were fixed it made it 14 years before some plastic piece cracked and started leaking in the interior. That seems to be more the exception than the rule for them though.
My lg washer dryer perform well but had problems after 6 years. But we go through a fuckton of laundry (probably 60 loads/month).
Dryer drum cracked and it also needed new rollers. Washer needed new shocks and suspension, springs needed lubrication.
Wasn’t too hard to diy repair; even though it wasn’t difficult I had to almost completely disassemble the dryer, so be warned. If you ever replace the washer shocks make sure you cover the access panel with a towel and/or wear protective gloves (my hand slipped and I sliced it bad enough to need 3 stitches).
My maytag has been good so far (~8 years)
To each their own and I’m not for challenge technology …but that Seems like a lot of pressure to yourself just to be able to open the fridge
