Samsung Bixby speaker to arrive in H2 2018

Samsung made the Galaxy S9 official and is already looking towards the next devices in the technology roadmap. Yesterday the Samsung mobile chief Koh Dong-jin, widely known as DJ Koh, said that the Galaxy X foldable phone is not a gimmick. Today he confirmed in an interview to WSJ that a voice-activated speaker with Bixby is indeed coming, likely in the second half of this year.

NOT the Bixby speaker (this is a Samsung Radiant 360 Bluetooth speaker)

DJ Koh said pricing is not yet finalized, but the home

appliance might come in different tiers. Right now Amazon and Google offer different form factors of more or less the same service, while Apple has just the HomePod.

Samsung expanding its voice service to third-party developers and smart homes is not news - the company shared its intentions back in October. Back then the Bixby SDK was pushed to limited beta engineers and from the looks of it, Samsung is already preparing for a launch.
