Living My Best Life: Unlocking Time & Joy with Smart Home Technology

Samsung employees are the innovators, creators, trailblazers, doers, problem solvers, and changemakers of our organization. They inevitably touch some point in our products’ journey, whether it’s conception, design, development, creation, marketing, customer care, sales, or recycling. If you’re like us, you’re probably wondering what Samsung products are they actually adding to their carts. And, among those, what are the smart home products that they love the most?

For the newest installment of our “Living My Best Life: The Smart Home Edition” series, we sat down with Roger Quesada, Digital Appliance Product Marketing for Samsung.com and PRIDE employee resource group (ERG) national events leader. Roger and his partner are currently in the midst of a remarkable journey, revitalizing their 120-year-old home into a marvel of modern technology. Embracing timeless elegance and infusing it with 21st-century innovation, they envision their home as a reflection of their lifestyle.

Integral to this vision is the seamless integration of technology into every facet of their home design. Roger has fully embraced the concept of a connected home – complete with smart appliances like the Samsung PowerGrill Duo™ Countertop Microwave and the Samsung Bespoke Ultra Capacity Front Load Washer and Electric Dryer; smart entertainment like The Premiere 4K Smart Laser Projector, a 65” Class Samsung Neo QLED 8K television, and a Q-series Soundbar; and smart lighting systems – all controllable via the SmartThings app on his Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 smartphone. With a simple command to their voice assistant, Roger and his partner can illuminate rooms, preheat the oven, or initiate a laundry cycle, streamlining their daily routines. Additionally, they can effortlessly control their home entertainment setup, adjusting the TV volume or choosing their favorite movie or music playlist, enhancing their leisure time at home. And don’t even get Roger started on his love for his Samsung Bespoke Counter Depth 4-Door Flex™ Refrigerator! (No, really, the beverage center and icemaker are absolute game-changers!)

This smart home tech integration doesn’t just add convenience; it enhances their quality of life. As Roger aptly puts it, “Your time is the most important thing in your life. It has the most value. So, the whole point of technology lies in its ability to save you time or bring you moments of delight and joy.”
