Samsung Launches Smart System ACs with Built-in Wi-Fi in SEA & Oceania

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. recently announced the launch of its new system air conditioner (SAC) lineup in Southeast Asia and Oceania, marking a key step in the company’s efforts to expand its presence in the region’s fast-growing climate solutions market.

As part of this expansion, Samsung is strengthening its focus on the local B2C market with the 1-Way Cassette model, which offers advantages in both design and installation, making it suitable for residential environments in addition to commercial spaces. This means it addresses the rising consumer interest in ceiling-mounted units, which are more space efficient than conventional wall-mounted residential air conditioners. 

“Our goal is to make intelligent climate solutions more accessible across Southeast Asia and Oceania,” said Hank Choi, VP and the Head of Air Solution Business Team for Digital Appliances Business at Samsung Electronics. “By combining powerful AI features with thoughtful design, as well as expanding availability, we’re providing air conditioning systems that bring convenient cooling tailored to each customer’s environment — not only in commercial spaces, but increasingly for residential settings as well.”

Seamless Connectivity and Advanced Technology Ensure Comfort

Samsung’s latest SAC lineup includes 1Way, 4Way, 360 Cassette, duct and ceiling types to meet the diverse needs of modern consumers. The 1Way model directs airflow in a single direction, the 4Way model disperses air in four directions and the 360 Cassette delivers omnidirectional airflow in a circular pattern. 

These indoor units offer a seamless smart experience with built-in Wi-Fi, enabling direct connectivity to the SmartThings app without the need for additional kits or devices. Through SmartThings, users can remotely operate the air conditioner with a broad range of functionality — including turning it on or off, and activating modes such as WindFree™. AI Energy Mode, which reduces energy consumption depending on usage conditions, can easily be accessed through the built-in Wi-Fi. 

User can control the air conditioner with the Bixby voice assistantthrough the mobile phone, which lets the user utilize a range of functions via voice, including adjusting fan speed, changing operation modes, checking indoor temperature and humidity, and carrying out precise actions like activating WindFree™ mode at a scheduled time. 

In addition to improved usability, the product specifications have also undergone several changes. First, all models in the latest SAC lineup have been changed to use R32 refrigerant, instead of R410A refrigerant used in Samsung’s conventional SAC models. Additionally, outdoor units are equipped with Samsung’s Durafin™ Ultra technology. It features a corrosion-resistant layer to protect the heat exchanger from rusting, thus helps the outdoor units maintain the performance.

Expanded Lineup Caters to More Types of Spaces

To make SAC solutions more accessible to customers, Samsung plans to diversify its distribution strategy. Continuing its existing approach, the company will support sales through professional installers to meet a wide range of business needs. Within the lineup, the 4Way and 360 Cassette models are available in various cooling capacities, ranging from 5.2kW to 16kW, making them well-suited for different commercial environments.

At the same time, to meet the growing demand from residential customers, the 1Way model will be made available through general retail stores. Compared to the 4Way and 360 Cassette models, the 1Way model is more compact and offers a design that is better suited to home interiors. With a height of just 135mm, it requires slim ceiling clearance, allowing for easier installation in residential spaces. In Southeast Asia and Oceania last year, quantity of sales of Samsung system air conditioners grew by more than 20% year-on-year, with sales volume of the 1Way model rising by over 35% in this high-growth market. Based on the launch of 1Way models in retail stores, Samsung aims to keep the trend this year.

Smart Spending: How Gen Z Filipinos Choose Their Phones

 

- For many Gen Z Filipinos, purchasing a mobile device is an exciting milestone. A smartphone serves as their all-in-one tool for on-the-go productivity, content creation, and everyday entertainment. While performance and quality are key factors in their decision-making when it comes to purchasing a smartphone, today’s Gen Z also values a seamless product experience and strong post-purchase support. They’re looking for a device that not only performs well but also stands the test of time.

With their increasingly digital-first lifestyles, durability is also a top priority. That’s why, beyond a reliable device, a dependable customer service is equally essential—offering peace of mind that help is there when they need it most.

Easy, simple, and quality after-sales care

We’ve all had to reach out to customer service for various reasons – to rebook flights, to return a product, to refund purchases, and more. This is why reliable customer service is something that we all expect from the brands we trust. The same goes for mobile devices – for Gen Zs, convenience is a key factor in their purchases. Thus, filing a service request should be quick and easy.

For Samsung users, customer service support is available through various platforms such as customer care hotlines (PLDT 1-800-10-7267864, Globe 1-800-8-7267864, and Standard 8422-2111) from Mon-Fri, 9 am to 6 pm, Samsung’s 24/7 Live Chat, or through Viber (search Samsung Customer Service). Samsung Members can also reach out through the Samsung Members app. Users can check for more information through Samsung’s self-help guides.

Aside from providing excellent after-sales service, Samsung also continues to innovate to provide users with devices that are built to last with long-lasting performance. Galaxy devices benefit from up to 7 generations of OS updates and upgrade support, along with up to 7 years of security updates. Coupled with Samsung Care+, Gen Z customers can plan for the unplanned with enhanced coverage and enjoy using their devices worry-free for years to come.

Extra peace-of-mind with Samsung Care+

As mobile phones are essentially partners to one’s lifestyle, young Filipinos need to have the assurance that their device remains safe everywhere they go, especially when they have an active lifestyle.

Accidents can happen at any time that can significantly disrupt daily routines, making everyday tasks more challenging and potentially costly. Thus, Samsung highlights the importance of after-service care, ensuring users can protect their devices from everyday mishaps and maintain seamless functionality.

This is why Samsung created Samsung Care+, a worry-free total device protection service that provides worldwide coverage for unlimited repairs for accidental and liquid damage and one (1) device replacement per year for up to 2 years.

Available to both new and existing users, Samsung Care+ can be availed in a variety of ways: by including along with a purchase of a Galaxy device, adding after purchasing the device within 30 days, or visiting the nearest Samsung Authorized Stores nationwide. Customers can also avail of Samsung Care+ online through samsung.com.

Samsung Care+ is covered by an extensive network of Authorized Samsung Service Centers nationwide, which means that users are sure to get quality service from Samsung experts and authentic Samsung parts as quickly and efficiently as possible, wherever they are.
