Cool your spaces with Samsung Digital Appliances’ air-conditioner 2021 lineup
Energy-saving, fast cooling, and purifying air quality!
Sun-kissed skin, so hot, we’ll melt your popsicle~
Ooh oh ooh, it’s officially that blazing hot season where the ocean calls us. However, given our dire situations, all we can do is to stay indoors and envelope ourselves from a cool breeze blown by our air-conditioning units. That is if you have one.
To help us stay safe and cool inside our homes, Samsung Digital Appliances has unveiled its air-conditioning unit lineup for 2021.
Forget the boxy, unappealing air-conditioners of the recent past. Samsung’s newest lineup blends beautifully and comes with energy-efficient features, along with smart technology to provide clean air, ease of mind, and convenience, and to maintain indoor air quality.
First foray into Window-Type Inverters
Samsung’s first-ever Window-Type Inverter Air Conditioner is finally here with fast cooling and energy-saving features.
It helps save up to 61 percent on energy through maintaining a certain temperature. This removes your need to turn the a/c on and off, avoiding sudden spikes in energy usage.
It also has a Soft Start Mode to prevent abrupt power surges and cools the room 15 percent faster than non-inverters. Moreover, it’s equipped with an Anti-Bacterial Filter — containing Silver Ion, Vitamin C, and Anti-Mite — which aims to provide safer air quality by reducing bacteria, allergens, and other airborne contaminants.
Air-conditioner and purifier in one
The WindFree Plus ensures a safer, cooler, and comfortable environment. It combines Samsung’s proprietary WindFree cooling technology and an Air Purifier PM 1.0 Filter.
The two features work hand-in-hand, dispersing cool air through microholes while purifying up to 99 percent of dust, bacteria, and other harmful substances.
This unit comes with Air Quality Display that indicates how clean the air is. For a more personalized experience, the air conditioner can be connected to your smartphone via the SmartThings app. When connected, you can remotely control the unit and monitor the energy consumption. Also, you can get an alert whenever your a/c needs a cleaning.
A safer, cooler, and comfortable commercial space
For business spaces, Samsung introduced its 4Way and 1Way WindFree Cassette with Air Purifying Panel units. Both units provide cooling solutions while cleaning the air quickly and effectively, even on an area of up to 157.4 sqm.
Having the WindFree technology keeps people comfortably cool without being bothered by a direct wind blown out of the a/c. And when people are cool and comfortable, you can expect to see their productivity spike and optimize their workflow.
Samsung’s cooling solutions even lower running costs and energy consumption by up to 50 percent. Especially through its Motion Detect Sensor, which is available on the 4Way Cassette with Purifying Panels. When the unit recognizes no movement in a span of 30 minutes, it switches to WindFree mode. Then, it switches into standby mode after an hour of no movement detected.

ITZY’s YUNA is Infinix’s first ever global brand ambassador
Infinix is in with YUNA in the scene
Infinix is entering a new era — and the brand is bringing one of K-Pop’s most sought-after stars along the ride.
A first for Infinix
In line with the launch of the latest NOTE 60 series, Infinix has also named YUNA of ITZY as its very first Global Brand Ambassador. The company calls this a bold step forward for both innovation and style.
For the record, this is the first time Infinix has tapped a global ambassador — and the choice makes sense. YUNA is known for her confidence, vibrant energy, and unapologetic self-expression. These qualities align closely with Infinix’s “Joy Tech, Beyond Limits” philosophy.
In a statement, YUNA shared her excitement about the partnership. She said she’s looking forward to connecting with fans in a new way and creating meaningful stories together with the brand.
For Infinix, this collaboration is more than just a celebrity endorsement. It signals a shift in how the company wants to position itself globally — not just as a smartphone maker, but as a lifestyle tech brand for expressive, tech-savvy youth.
The more, the merrier
The partnership goes along the debut of the NOTE 60 Series, further fueling Infinix’s move toward a more premium smartphone experience.
Like YUNA, the NOTE 60 line also brings notable names in the table:
- Powered by Snapdragon from Qualcomm
- Design collaboration with Pininfarina
- Audio tuned with JBL
It’s a clear attempt that Infinix wanted to elevate both performance and design by blending in flagship-level specs, more refined aesthetics, and immersive sound altogether.
Infinix says this launch also marks its expansion into more premium international markets.
With YUNA as the face of the brand, the company hopes to strengthen its appeal among younger users who want both powerful hardware and a device that matches their personality.
Rather than focusing purely on specs, Infinix is leaning into storytelling — highlighting how technology can spark creativity, joy, and individuality.
With the NOTE 60 Series and YUNA front and center, Infinix appears ready to redefine its brand identity on a global scale.
