The dryer looks good and it's almost a shame to hide it in a cupboard. It is, as usual with Samsung, full of functionality. Maybe a little too full. I personally like the possibility to adjust each program to your own wishes. Of course, this is also possible on a 'normal' dryer these days, but it works a little better for me this way. That is of course a matter of taste.
In terms of operation, the dryer is not inferior to other dryers in the same price range. Everything comes out dry, even when I have stuffed the dryer a little too full. There is a washing list (or actually a drying list) of settings to set the dryer to. However, the nice thing about this dryer is of course the AI function. The dryer has "AI Dry+" where the device continuously measures the humidity level, temperature, etc. via all kinds of sensors and adjusts the operation accordingly. It is difficult to determine how well this works per component, but since the clothes come out dry without shrinking, I am more than satisfied.
The screen on the dryer is nice and gives it a more modern look. Spotify and YouTube on a dryer suggest to me the "look what we can do" attitude that Samsung sometimes adopts and was not necessary. It can't do any harm and fortunately it is hidden in a separate menu. The dryer can be used without ever having a view of these apps.
The addition of light in the drum is nice so that nothing is overlooked when emptying the drum. The sock that used to go for an extra ride can now go straight into the drawer.
Not unimportant; the sound. The dryer is relatively quiet. It is clearly audible that a dryer is on, but in my opinion not disturbing. What I personally do find disturbing is the sound when the fast drying function is switched on. The dryer then seems to double in produced sound which is bordering on annoying.
Of course, the dryer can be operated via the SmartThings app. With a small beauty error where the dryer in the app indicates 'Send to washing machine'. Samsung will hopefully solve this in an update and does not affect the operation, but it is a pity.
