The Bot that Makes a Clean Sweep


The hustle and bustle of today’s lifestyle has definitely put a strain on our personal time. Typical house chores often feel like a distraction from things that matter most to us. Such chores, if neglected, make our living environment not only unhealthy but an uncomfortable one. 

The solution is the NaviBot-S, Samsung’s latest independent home cleaning system. Small, flat and silent, it crawls through your living space; cleaning and removing dust particles effortlessly. Its Dust Particle Sensor intelligently detects even the slightest amount of dust and persistently cleans until the job is done. The end result is a squeaky clean hygienic environment that’s safe for children to play in.


The Navibot-S achieves this with the advanced Visionary MappingTM Plus System that enables the bot to clean narrow spots quickly and efficiently. When low on power, it ingeniously takes the shortest route back to the docking station, and resumes its last position once fully charged; eliminating downtime and unnecessary travel distance. Consequently, the bot delivers a cleaner home in a shorter timeframe. 


The slim 80mm profile allows the NaviBot-S to reach every nook and cranny, covering every inch with its sweeping action. Users can even dictate how often they prefer the NaviBot-S to do the work for them. This whole process is also silent; thanks to the Air Path Technology that keeps noise levels to a maximum of 60dB. And because it works without ever getting in your way, you won’t have to be spend too much time cleaning.

Conventional cleaning robots usually work well on one surface but struggle with others. The NaviBot-S includes a Turbo Mode and Spot Mode that performs great on challenging surfaces like carpets and rugs. Usually requiring manual effort, these surfaces are easily tackled by the NaviBot-S.


Regardless of the size of your office or home, the Samsung NaviBot-S leaves you with more productive time for the important events in your life. It does what it does best – it dusts where other robots and humans have failed.

Putting the ‘Smart’ In TV


Gone are the days of the idiot box. It was once the flickering monitor-shaped object we remember from our childhood. Through decades, its shape changed. Remote control became a feature. Soon after, it evolved into a slim beauty that looked good, but was no better than its pudgy predecessors.

Enter the Samsung Smart LED TV F8000. The first thing you’ll notice is the ultra-thin design profile and arc stand that practically ‘hovers’ on your living room table. Due to the sleek screen and optical-illusion inspired stand, it’s a great conversation started when guests are visiting.
However, the real talk of the town is the impressive 1920x1080p Ultra Clear Panel display. Any content that you throw at it comes out brimming with vibrant colours and deep blacks; bringing a new refreshing viewing experience to your favourite movies. With an expansive viewing angle, you’ll get that thrill from any spot in the room.  


What makes your content great is the first-of-its-kind Intelligent Viewing technology and features that give people the best-in-class visual experience. The Smart Interaction feature allows people to interact with the TV with just a wave of the hand.

You have an array of Motion and Voice Controls with this Smart TV. It is surprisingly easy to learn, and soon you’ll be waving and commanding your TV to do things that you’ve never thought would be possible. Turning your attention to the remote to discover that you’ve missed a goal or a thrilling moment is a thing of the past. 


The sense of Samsung putting a lot of polish in their Motion Control is apparent. Occasionally, you’ll find yourself flipping pages, ‘liking’ Social Media postings and even zooming in and out of your photo collection.

Ultimately, the features and design of this Samsung Smart TV feels like a perfect marriage of beauty and brawn because it turns every other ‘smart’ TV into an idiot box.
