    I'll never understand why someone would buy a fridge from a smartphone manufacturer. It's like they wake up one day like "my life is too simple, I want the joys of software updates and yearly upgrades for my fridge". What benefits would a smart fridge even have? You can change the temperature remotely? Who even changes the temperature of their fridge?
