Hisense showcases AI-driven smart home solutions at IFA 2026

BERLIN, Sept. 5, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- At the International Consumer Electronics Fair (IFA) 2026, Hisense is showcasing a comprehensive AI-driven suite designed to simplify everyday home routines. The company's AI Companion Suite, powered by ConnectLife, offers a range of smart home solutions that enhance the kitchen, laundry, and living spaces.

Visitors to Hisense's booth at IFA 2026 can step into the future of home technology. In the kitchen, asking "What should I make?" triggers a series of smart responses. The AI Companion Refrigerator recognizes stored ingredients and suggests meal ideas based on personal preferences. Once a recipe is chosen, the AI Companion Oven syncs to support automatic cooking, while the AI Companion Wine Cabinet recommends pairings and maintains suitable storage conditions. After dinner, the AI Companion Dishwasher recognizes dish conditions and adjusts cleaning, illustrating how AI can streamline the entire meal-planning process.

In the laundry area, the AI Companion Laundry Suite automates the washing and drying process. By recognizing clothing characteristics, it selects the appropriate wash and dry cycles and adjusts them automatically, creating a seamless load-and-go experience. In the living space, the AI Companion Air Conditioner senses indoor conditions and user presence, adjusting airflow as people move through the room. Meanwhile, the AI Companion Energy System considers weather and time-of-use electricity pricing to optimize household energy use.

Hisense is also collaborating with Alexa+, making it one of the first home appliance brands to integrate with Amazon's Alexa+ AI assistant using the new Smart Home AI Toolkit. This collaboration allows Alexa+ customers to control select Hisense air conditioners by simply stating their needs. Alexa+ will then map the request, navigate the settings, and complete the action, further enhancing the user experience.

Hisense's commitment to innovation has been recognized at IFA, with several of its products winning awards. The Multi Function II Series, an all-in-one energy-saving HVAC solution, received a Winner Award, while the X-zone Master was named an Honoree. The U8 Air Master Air Conditioner, W60 3D Kitchen-fit Series, and 60cm Integrated Wine Cabinet were also recognized, underscoring Hisense's focus on integrating intelligent technology, thoughtful design, and everyday usability.

Across these IFA scenarios, Hisense's Smart Home Companion capabilities are brought to life through V AIOS. This system allows devices to sense their environment, think through actions, communicate naturally with users and across devices, and execute tasks autonomously. Together, these capabilities help the AI Companion Suites understand context, make decisions, and take action, making the home more efficient while requiring less user intervention.
