The new range of refrigerators allows users to control temperature settings without opening the door, significantly reducing the loss of cold air, thereby saving electricity. With LG ThinQ technology, users can control key features and access devices remotely from anywhere. LG’s latest fridges also come with AI-powered Smart Learner, which analyzes usage pattern and optimizes cooling accordingly and claims to deliver superior energy efficiency and long-lasting freshness for fruits and vegetables.

The new InstaView Side-By-Side refrigerator has tinted glass for a glimpse of what’s inside. Tapping the window twice illuminates the inside of the refrigerator to view its contents without opening the door. The company claims that the water dispenser nozzle is self-cleaned regularly with UV light to reduce 99.99% of bacteria from the water nozzle for better purity.
Another interesting product that LG has introduced is the PuriCare portable air purifier. It’s equipped with a set of replaceable HEPA filters, dual fans, an IPX4 rating and more. It also has a small speaker to amplify your voice during a conversation while wearing the purifier. The product connects to your smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth and allows for a degree of customization as well as informing you about the status of its battery and filters. The personal air purifier is quite an innovative product but will cost you Rs 21,990.
The company has sought to up its game with the use of smart technologies in other categories such as air conditioners, microwaves, water purifiers and dishwashers. They also focused heavily on aesthetics to complement modern home interiors. Pricing for all new products will be available shortly.
