Bit late to be setting new years resolutions Bixby?

    Jokes a side. Seriously speaking, the more languages, functions, speed, etc, the better it will be

      To tell a joke, i will know that Bixby is the best virtual assistant in the world, when it will understand and speak my native language, Maltese. Haha

        sa11oum, 10 Apr 2017Every platform should have a voice assistant, not every ski... mores voice predates the Google Assistant by some years.
        And Bixby is by many considered to be superior compared to the Google Assistant, so how is that copying?
        Both howevr took after Apple in this case.

        Samsung had support for split screen apps, before Google (and Apple).

        Samsung had a superior system for Toggles compared to vanilla Android, however now google has pretty much caught up.

Samsung recreates apps for every single thing Google does on Android natively, not just Bixby

            Shadow Snypa786, 10 Apr 2017Not really at least you have more choice and whichever one ... moreThat's just a blatant lie because Bixby has a dedicated, non-remappable button so yeah

What was wrong with S Voice, couldn't they just updated it? In any case there is no point of anything other than GA on an Android phone. Let's see for how many generations Samsung keep up this Bixby thing.

                TouchWiz turned to Grace, new NAME.

                S Voice is now Bixby, new NAME.

                  That was quick!
                  Unfortunately, I wasn't impressed with Bixby, but who knows, maybe Bixby 2.0 or ''The Next Bixby'' will make me change my mind.

                      Its all about more choice and options.

Right? You take your hate too far that you forget what are you talking about, so you feel offended by samsung? Is it like that are racist with you?

                          'Bengali' is in the 4th no. in ranking of hignest talked language.Around 300 million people are there who use bengali....but there was no space for it in 'S Voice'....and in 'Bixby' too.... :3

                            sa11oum, 10 Apr 2017Why do Samsung always try to copy Google's products on thei... moreInevitable. Every different OS have their own. IOS with Siri. Windows with Cortana. Android with Google's Assistant. Amazon with Alexa. Tizen with Bixby. It wouldnt be a surprised if a giant company have their own AI. More option for everyone. You hate it, simply use another phone. You call it bloatware, they call it the future.

                              Why do Samsung always try to copy Google's products on their own devices? I mean what is more bloat than having two separate, very similar, voice assistants? People who buy Samsung devices must be insane.

                                Where is S Voice?
