This means that it will be possible to update them, from both a hardware and software point of view, without having to systematically buy a new one.

LG will offer upgrade options on these new appliances, depending on individual habits and lifestyles.

For a dryer, this will mean, for example, software updates for new programmes or the addition of new accessories adapted to specific fabrics.

In the case of an air purifier, it could integrate a new filter specialised in collecting animal hair and dander if a dog or cat joins the family.

The idea is to offer even more convenience without necessarily having to change models. It’s also a system that should allow households to keep appliances longer.

LG plans to launch about 20 of these new Evolving Appliances products this year.
