Hisense has expanded its premium refrigeration portfolio with the launch of the new PureSmart Duo Series, combining a 21-inch smart screen with connected food management, flexible storage and advanced dispensing technology.

Designed around the growing role of connected appliances in the kitchen, the PureSmart Duo Series features a 21-inch TFT Smart Screen that provides access to appliance controls, food management tools, recipes and entertainment. As part of Hisense’s AI Companion Suite, the model brings these connected features together to support a more intelligent, integrated kitchen experience. The screen also connects with the Hisense ConnectLife app, enabling integration with compatible smart home devices.

The Smart Screen provides a range of practical functions for greater user control, including temperature adjustment, filter reminders and an integrated timer. Its Food Inventory function allows users to record items stored in the refrigerator and set expiry dates, with notifications providing reminders when food is approaching its use-by date.

The screen also provides access to more than 80 recipes, while a Shopping List function is designed to support meal planning and grocery management. Together, these tools help connect food storage with meal planning, bringing everyday kitchen tasks into one central interface.

The PureSmart Duo Series includes Hisense’s Refresh Hub Pro, which combines water filtration with an integrated three-way dispenser. Users can select from crescent ice, crushed ice and chilled water without opening the refrigerator. The system connects to a plumbed water supply and uses an integrated water filter, where Hisense states that its water filtration technology provides 99.9% sterilised water.

The Smart Food Vision feature uses three integrated cameras to monitor the refrigerator’s contents, providing greater visibility of stored food and helping users manage what they have available. The appliance also features Anti-Bacterial Guard, which Hisense says can eliminate up to 99.9% of bacteria within the fridge.

Beyond food management, the PureSmart Duo Series is designed to act as a connected hub within the kitchen. Through the integrated VIDAA platform, the 21-inch display provides access to TV, music, internet browsing and compatible entertainment applications. Users can also display artwork, wallpapers and screensavers on the screen when it is not being used for refrigerator controls or food management to add personalisation to the kitchen. This forms part of Hisense’s Social Kitchen concept, which positions the refrigerator as more than an appliance for food storage, bringing connectivity, entertainment and everyday functionality together in one place.

The appliance combines these connected features with a flat-door design and recessed handles, giving the refrigerator a streamlined appearance designed to complement contemporary kitchen environments.

Matthew Glynn, Go-to-Market Product Marketing Manager at Hisense, said: “The PureSmart Duo Series brings together a range of technologies designed to make the refrigerator a more connected and useful part of the kitchen, contributing to an integrated intelligent hub within the home.

“We have focused on making better use of kitchen space while aiming to make users’ lives easier through practical tools for everyday food management, from inventory and expiry reminders through to connected controls and recipe inspiration.

“The combination of the 21-inch Smart Screen, food management technology and flexible refrigeration features makes the PureSmart Duo Series an important addition to our premium refrigeration portfolio, representing a new wave of innovation in the cooling category.”
