The world is slowly approaching the era when connected Internet of Things products will be available in every household in the world (or at least in most) and Samsung, as one of the leading players in the IoT market, is preparing the ground for the further development of this platform, with which you could a few years ago, perhaps only to be seen in sci-fi films.
However, Samsung knows that the future is now and that is why it has announced that all future SUHD TVs that it will introduce this year and in the years to come will have a SmartThings hub built right into them, thanks to which you will be able to pair your smart TV with another intelligent electronics such as thermostats, humidity sensors, alarms, door locks or light bulbs. In short, there are many different devices that will be able to be controlled from this year via a TV or phone if you pair it with a supported Smart TV. The worse news, however, is that the SmartThings hub will be locked to certain regions (region lock), so if you use the TV in an unsupported country, you will not be able to use this advantage. But Samusng says that he is working on expanding this feature to the whole world.
