Introduction Front The Smart ThinQ's design should be pretty familiar to anyone whose seen a high end LG, since it's built on the same platform as other high-end fridges. The main difference is that color touchscreen on the front, which is one key to apps such as Health Manager, Freshness Tracker and Smart Shopping. The other key is your smartphone, but we'll get to that later. Olympus SZ-31MR iHS side views Ease of Access This year's Smart ThinQ improves on the connected fridge that LG debuted last year, adding apps that help you track grocery inventory, order food and pretend that you're managing your diet responsibly. All of these features are available on the fridge's on-board control panel or through an LG smartphone app that will be available for Android and iOS. The coolest function we tried out in the LG booth was the receipt scanner on the Food Manager app. It uses a smartphone camera and optical character recognition to read a grocery receipt and add items to your grocery inventory, which you can then check from your phone. Unfortunately, the user has to manually delete items that aren't going in the fridge. It's also up to the user to remove items from inventory once they're used, so the app is only as accurate as the person using it. It's promising technology, but we're still a ways away from a pseudo-sentient fridge that can tell you how many eggs you have left. Controls All controls are based on the touchscreen. Apps can be accessed through a smartphone, howe...

This version uses the touchscreen to manage your food using LG’s webOS software and Amazon’s Alexa, which will let you tag food with virtual stickers and expiration dates and get automatic reminders when things are running low or about to go bad. There’s also a wide-angle panoramic camera on the inside of the fridge that will let you remotely view your fridge while you’re out and about to check and see if you’re actually out of milk or not. LG is also touting how all of its ThinQ kitchen gadgets can talk to each other to make kitchen tasks easier. So your ThinQ fridge can talk to your EasyClean oven, which will help you cook food through step-by-step instructions from the recipe app from your fridge. Then, your EasyClean oven can notify your QuadWash dishwasher about the kind of meal you cooked, so it can more efficiently select a wash cycle for that dish. Of course, all this requires spending thousands of dollars replacing every appliance in your kitchen (and if this all works as well as LG claims it does), but it’s still an intriguing vision of a Jetsons-like future utopia.

Smart fridges do some things refrigerators have always done, only better, but they also fold the hulking kitchen appliances into the growing high-tech world of the smart home and the WiFi-connected Internet of Things (IoT). On the very practical end, they can help you save energy and cut down on food waste, and on the luxury side of things, they'll respond to voice commands, suggest recipes for what you have in stock, and maybe even provide you with a digital bulletin board for your family. Certain models of smart fridges keep an inventory of the food and beverages inside, so you can see your refrigerator's contents at any time, either through the companion mobile app or the fridge's built-in screen, if that's available. Creating and maintaining that inventory may have to be done manually, or scanned into the smart fridge's memory from a package's UPC bar code. Once its contents are inventoried, a smart fridge can remind you through an app when food items are either about to expire or about to run out. Many smart fridges have wide-angle cameras inside so you can remotely see through a mobile device whether you need more chocolate almond-cashew milk while you're at the store. Some advanced models from companies like Samsung or LG integrate The Samsung smart fridge Family Hub system aims to create a shared, common space for organizing and communicating with the household, through calendar reminders, onscreen notes, to-do lists, photo galleries, and more. There's a dedicated ...

This Smart ThinQ LFX31995ST marks LG's smart refrigerator debut, this model being the only fridge in LG's connected, app-driven Smart ThinQ line. From our preliminary, software-focused view, LG has made a confident first step into the world of the Internet-connected fridge. LG released this model in December 2012 and gave it a price tag of $3,499.99. Like Samsung and other vendors, LG is clearly targeting high-end shoppers here. We'll have a full review of this refrigerator as we continue to develop our appliance testing methods, but here's what we know after some hands-on time. Colin West McDonald/CNET At its most basic level, the LFX31995ST is a large capacity, luxury refrigerator with French doors and a bottom freezer drawer. According to LG, the refrigerator portion boasts an impressive 20.7 cubic feet of space and the freezer an equally impressive 10 cubic feet. That makes it 30.7 cubic feet in total, which puts it in LG's Super Capacity category, and on the larger side of refrigerators overall. At 36 inches wide and 70.5 inches tall, this is no standard refrigerator, and you will need to make sure you have the appropriate space to install it. Colin We...
