        I hear people type grocery lists or that kind of stuff into them imstead of having a magnet whiteboard.

        No idea, I would never buy one with a screen. An icemaker and water dispenser is as fancy as I am willing to go.

          The icemaker and water dispenser are always the first things to break too. Fuck all that shit, just give me a box that stays cold with a light that works.

            They’re actually super easy to fix. Generally it’s just the solenoid needs to be swapped out. You can buy them cheap on Amazon for most fridges and install takes like 10 minutes.

            I stay away from the OEM ones. While they do last longer, it’s cheaper to replace it every 3 years or so for like $30 than it is to pay for the OEM one.

          That’s what I have a phone for.

          But yeah, probably. And knowing Samsung, you would probably need a Samsung phone for the app sync.

          And even that’s a stretch!

        Some have cameras on the inside that let you view the contents without opening it. Some have AI that use the cameras to track your food stock. I doubt either of these things justify the amount of resources they consume to accomplish this pointless bullshit.
