Samsung Bespoke AI Combo 2026 gets a larger 20 kg drying capacity

Available in versions with 7-inch and 2.8-inch displays

Samsung has unveiled the refreshed Bespoke AI Combo 2026 washer-dryer in South Korea. The new model features an upgraded heat exchanger, improving operating efficiency and increasing drying capacity by 2 kg. It can now wash up to 25 kg of laundry and dry up to 20 kg. This makes it the highest-capacity washer-dryer currently available on the South Korean market.

The company has also revised its operating modes. For instance, the Quick Course accelerated cycle is now 10 minutes faster than on the 2025 model and 30 minutes faster than the 2024 version.

AI features have been expanded as well. The AI Custom+ system assesses the laundry load, fabric type and level of soiling, then automatically selects the most suitable washing and drying settings. The appliance also includes an updated Bixby powered by a larger language model: the voice assistant understands natural speech and answers users’ questions.

Another addition is Auto Open Door+, which automatically opens the door when a cycle ends, allowing laundry to air and helping to prevent unpleasant odours. In Korea, the model is available in two versions: one with a 7-inch display, as in the previous generation, and a new option with a rotary dial and a 2.8-inch display. An international launch is expected during the year.
