The mid-year travel season is upon us and many lucky Australians will be swapping their chilly city commute for warm European nights.

And who could blame them?

The ABS said the total number of Australians returning from overseas in 2023 was 88% of 2019 (pre-COVID) volumes. In other words, Australians still love to travel.

However, if you’re heading abroad for the first time since before the COVID-19 pandemic, there’s a chance you’re not up to date with Samsung’s latest smart technology that could make your travels easier.

Maybe, like me, you “live in the shadows,” unsure of what smart travel technology really means, how far it has come, and what gadgets are currently available on the market.

Smart travel isn’t just about tracking your luggage with smart tags and buying a bag with a built-in charging port. It’s much more than that.

Samsung’s smart technology is designed to optimize the entire travel experience, from keeping your home clean while you’re on the road to returning home comfortably. It’s revolutionizing the way we manage our homes while on the go.

With Samsung SmartThings connectivity, it’s easier than ever to connect and integrate your smart devices while on the go.

The new Galaxy S24 Ultra is designed to help users achieve new levels of creativity and productivity right from their smartphone.

Not only does it take amazing photos and have all-day battery life (1) to capture every important moment, but AI features like Live Translate (2) and Interpreter (3) help break down language barriers effortlessly.

The Galaxy S24 Ultra can provide real-time translation during a phone call or even via text message, making restaurant reservations a breeze.

If you’re new to Samsung’s SmartThings, you’ll find it in an app that lets you control compatible Samsung devices and appliances with a single remote (your smartphone), no matter where you are. (4)

Galaxy SmartTag2 is a “smart” way to track your valuables and give yourself peace of mind when you’re on the go. It’s also easy to attach and carry around when you’re on the go, and it includes a durable, waterproof tag (so it won’t crack if you get caught in a storm). (5)

When paired with a Galaxy smartphone, the Galaxy SmartTag2 can provide real-time location information almost anywhere, making it ideal for tracking bags and other items while traveling. (6)

With a stylish and portable design, the Portable SSD T9 offers fast data transfer speeds (7) and plenty of space for professional content, all in a compact, credit card-sized form factor.

Durable yet lightweight, this external storage device helps you keep all your vacation photos and videos safe and secure.

Create an instant presentation on the big screen, wherever you are.

With crystal clear (10) image quality up to 100 inches (9), a built-in 360° speaker (11) and a simple, swivel design, the Freestyle portable projector is a true lifestyle screen that knows no bounds.

This versatile projector, housed in a handy case, is perfect for taking with you on the go. (12,13)

The new Samsung AI Family Hub™ app offers Australians a smarter way to manage their food.

Thanks to the internal camera (14) and AI View Inside, you can monitor the food in your fridge on your smartphone (15), meaning you’ll know exactly what to buy at the grocery store when you get home from your trip.

The AI ​​Vision Inside feature of the AI ​​camera can also help identify up to 33 fresh foods in your fridge and help you manage your grocery list (16) to avoid duplicating grocery shopping you already have when you get home (17).

With the Samsung Food app (18), you can even get recipe suggestions that take into account dietary restrictions and preferences, and manage “use by dates” on the LCD screen.

If you’ve left someone at home, leave them a digital message on their fridge to let them know when you’re back from the airport.

For many Australians, this year will be the first opportunity to refresh their passports and travel abroad since before the COVID pandemic.

Those of you flying out of the international terminal this year should remember that proper preparation is key.

Essentials like the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra and Galaxy SmartTag2 can be a lifesaver for travelers, from making it easier to talk to people in foreign countries to locating lost bags and other items.

Amenities like the Freestyle portable projector can add a touch of romance to your vacation (and transport the Bridgertons to even the most remote locations).

The real show stopper, however, is likely the smart devices you leave behind, like the Samsung Family Hub™ refrigerator. While they remain out of sight out of mind abroad, once you get home, you’ll have one less thing to worry about – you’ll be safe, healthy and organised.
