BIXBY IS FINALLY COMING TO YOUR SAMSUNG SMARTPHONE!

Samsung promised to give you Bixby, which is the same as iPhone and Google's Pixel in terms of artificial intelligence. It is well over a month since the launch of Samsung's flagship smartphone and owners outside South Korea are still waiting for Bixby to make a full debut. 

According to the latest The Wall Street Journal, the day is getting closer and not a moment too soon. Samsung is eyeing late June to release Bixby's voice feature. The Galaxy S8 launched with a dedicated hardware key for the new virtual assistant, which is planned to arrive in many other devices from tablets to other appliances down the line. 

Bixby could definitely prove its worth down the line, but for now, it is merely another virtual assistant competing against Apple's Siri and Google Assistant. Users will have to continue inquiring Google Assistant before that button on the left side of the Galaxy S8 is given any real purpose. Pressing it now only leads to "Hello Bixby", a feed of Google Now-like cards that consist of weather updates, reminders and calendar notifications. 

Let's see what happens end of June!!
