The Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra is a flagship cordless stick vacuum. It uses a 400 AW suction motor and includes a docking station that recharges the vacuum and empties its dustbin. It utilizes AI to automatically adjust the suction level and brushroll speed according to the floor surface it detects. The Active Dual Brush floorhead features an unpowered soft roller at the front and a powered, bristled main brushroll surrounded by felt pads. There's also a HEPA filter to seal in dust.
Our Verdict
The Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra is an acceptable choice for a home, with the caveat that its runtime at maximum power is so short that you won't be able to clean up even small messes. You'll have to turn down the suction power, defeating the purpose of such a powerful vacuum. On the positive side, this well-built cordless vacuum doesn't require being close to a power outlet. For pet owners, its brushroll delivers sufficient agitation to pick up even deeply embedded pet hair. Carpet pickup is decent, with the vacuum effectively removing most medium and large debris, although it leaves a small amount of fine debris behind on high-pile carpets. The best feature for keeping a clean home is the HEPA filter, which seals in nearly all particles, and the self-empty dock, which means you can empty the vacuum into the dock and dispose of the dustbag without creating a cloud of dust. Unfortunately, bare floor pickup could be improved, as this vacuum pushes around medium and large debris.
Nearly perfect HEPA filtration.
Self-empty dock effectively contains dust during emptying.
Great pet hair pickup.
Good build quality.
Medium and large debris is plowed ahead due to the floorhead design.
Leaves some embedded fine debris in carpets.
Extremely short runtime at maximum power.
The Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra is a great choice for a small apartment. Its best feature for small spaces is its nearly perfect filtering and its self-empty dock, both of which keep dust out of the air and prevent particles from settling throughout the room. This cordless vacuum can go anywhere in a small apartment without a cord getting underfoot. It's easy enough to store away in its dock, though you can't fold anything up. Also, pet owners will find that the brushroll effectively pulls pet hair from carpet. Carpet cleaning is satisfactory, though it leaves some fine debris behind, especially in high-pile carpet. However, the brushroll's design, with a fluffy idler roller, struggles to clear most debris when you're cleaning hard floors.

The Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra is very good for cleaning stairs. It's light and portable, making it easy to carry up and down stairs and maneuver on stair treads, and because it's cordless, you won't need to find an outlet. You can put this well-built vacuum's high suction to good use on both carpeted and hard stair tread surfaces, where it'll easily clear away fine material, though it plows medium and large debris forward on bare surfaces. Finally, the vacuum's filtration is incredible. You don't have to worry about blowing dust particles while vacuuming in tight staircases, and the self-empty dock effectively seals everything away when emptying the vacuum.

The Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra is good for cleaning cars. It's very portable, and its cordless design means you won't need to be near an outlet. It uses its high suction to deliver good performance on low-pile automotive carpets and comes with the various tools you'll need to clean your car. It's great at picking up pet hair and is easy to maintain, with good build quality. When you're done cleaning, just pop it back in its dock; there's no need to bring anything but the vacuum itself out to your car.
Very good portability.

Good build quality.

The Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra delivers a disappointing overall experience on bare floors. Its complex floorhead has a fluffy idler roll at the front and felt strips on the sides and rear, which push around medium and large debris, as well as some fine material. When it comes to cleaning cracks in hardwood flooring, since its suction is distributed over a large floorhead, it can't clean the deepest cracks, but it does an adequate job otherwise.
Medium and large debris is plowed ahead due to the floorhead design.
The Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra offers decent performance on carpets. On high-pile carpet, it picks up medium and large materials fairly well, as its complex brushroll pushes this material down into the carpet before picking it up. However, it leaves some fine material behind. It performs a bit better on low-pile carpet, where it can pick up more fine debris since this material is closer to the brushroll.
Cleans medium and large debris fairly well on carpets.

The Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra does a great job of picking up pet hair on both carpet and furniture. Its brushroll delivers sufficient agitation to pick up most pet hair on carpet, even embedded hairs. On furniture, its performance is equally impressive using its motorized Pet Tool attachment, cleaning up nearly all clumps and stray strands. However, the exhaust airflow is so strong that it can blow loose hair up into the air.
Great pet hair pickup.
Motorized pet tool is effective on pet hair on upholstered furniture.
Strong exhaust air scatters loose hair around.
The Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra is fantastic for air quality. Its HEPA filtration performance is nearly perfect. Hardly any particles escape from its exhaust, so you don't have to be concerned about the vacuum scattering dust out into the room and onto surfaces. The vacuum's rare self-empty dock addresses the main issue with bagless vacuums: it transfers the collected dust into a sealed system, where it's contained in a dirt bag, which you can dispose of without scattering dust back into your living space.
Nearly perfect HEPA filtration.
Self-empty dock effectively contains dust during emptying.

Popular Vacuum Comparisons
The Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra is a flagship cordless stick vacuum, the latest addition to Samsung's line of Jet cordless stick vacuums. The Bespoke versions have multifunction docks that recharge the vacuum and empty the dustbin. This is a very rare feature and not available with Dyson's vacuums. The lower-performance Samsung Jet 75 has a similar self-empty dock, though it's optional. In addition, this vacuum's filtering is nearly perfect, among the best we've tested, so it's a great choice for allergy sufferers. In terms of performance, Samsung upgraded the 210 AW motor in the earlier Samsung Bespoke Jet to an immensely powerful 400 AW motor; yet the AI Jet Ultra's performance barely exceeds its predecessor at a considerable extra cost. You can't use all this power to your advantage and have to turn down its powerful motor, or you'll run out of battery power in minutes. However, none of the Samsungs perform as well as Dyson's flagship, the Dyson Gen5detect/Gen5detect Absolute.
If you're looking for other alternatives, check out our recommendations for the best cordless vacuums, the best stick vacuums, or the best vacuum cleaners with good suction.
The Dyson V15 Detect is a better vacuum than the Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra. The Dyson performs better on most floor surfaces, especially on bare floors. The Dyson also comes with more tools, is lighter, and is easier to store. However, you can empty the Samsung's dustbin into its base station, a feature unavailable with Dyson.
The Dyson Gen5detect is a better vacuum than the Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra. It performs better on nearly every floor surface, including on cracks, and delivers better suction due to its superior floorhead design. All this is despite the Samsung's more powerful suction motor. However, Samsung Bespoke vacuums come with an auto-empty base station, a feature Dyson doesn't offer.
Though the Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra is equipped with a 400 AW suction motor and sets suction and brushroll speed automatically by AI, it doesn't perform much better than the older Samsung Bespoke Jet. Its marginal performance increase doesn't justify its price premium over the Bespoke Jet.
The Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra is a better vacuum than the Miele Triflex HX2 Pro/Cat & Dog. The Samsung delivers better performance on carpets and is easier to maintain. You also get an auto-empty base station with the Samsung. But the Miele offers better battery life, although with a much longer recharge time.
