    Real live usage shows that Cortana is far superior to Siri, and light years ahead of Google's Assistant.
    Plus her voice sounds nice and natural. And she has her own awesome personality.

          India is important for OEMs just because instead of fixing your own life conditions(roads, houses) and especially hygiene, you buy phones. Nothing more nothing less.

                  Cortana? are u kidding me?! that's a thing that's dead. Only Google Assistance is relevant. Alexa is ok for shopping and home devices integration. Siri? That's a dumb thing that hopefully it will catch up. The rest are history.

                    Google has yet to realise that people often live and work in different countries than where they originate. The number of times Google try to force Thai language on me is ridiculous.

                        Why German and French? There is a lot more people speaking portuguese and russian, for example than german or french. Mandarin, Hindi, Arabic (...) all of those languages have more people speaking them...

                              Portuguese from Portugal should be the one in the list NOT THE PORTUGUESE BRASILIAN, because in my mind that doesnt exist, Portuguese is from Portugal, that is the mother language of all Portuguese variations. PERIOD!!!

                                  But then there's Cortana. And everything else is irrelevant.

                                    Some assistants are far from multilingual so its quite powerful move.

                                      Who cares, bixby is better!! NOT!!

                                        So... Will be global, yet only a few languages will be available. Not to mention the fact that the assistant works with portuguese (brazilian) but not portuguese (portuguese). Google, nice logic you have there.
