Samsung has confirmed that its home robot, Ballie, will launch in the next six months. The device aims to serve as a personal assistant, autonomously navigating around the home to complete tasks. However, despite previous upgrades at CES 2024 and 2025, the market’s reception remains uncertain.
The robot’s struggles are attributed to high price tags and limited features that don’t justify such costs. Despite this, Ballie may still find success in Samsung’s native South Korea, where it could receive a more favorable response.
Samsung is expected to reveal more information on pricing and availability during its press conference Monday at 2 p.m. PT. With the robot still in its development stage, the US market remains skeptical about its launch.
