Samsung Galaxy S8 Release Date, Specifications, Price, and More: What the Rumours Say
In separate news, Samsung's much-anticipated digital assistant Bixby has been leaked in a trademark application. The application was first spotted by Twitter Sam ECD Recycling who wrote "Samsung have just sent off this trademark application. Say hello to Bixby!" Notably, the Bixby logo looks like letter B and comes with a description that says, "Smartphones; mobile telephones; portable computers; tablet computers; interactive computer software enabling exchange of information across a computer network; computer software to enable the provision of information via communications networks; computer communication". The description indicates that Bixby may very well the new digital assistant for Samsung devices, starting with the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+.
With the Galaxy S8 series, Samsung is widely expected to extend the AI assistant to all native apps on AI development after acquiring Viv Labs, a US-based artificial-intelligence software company. Based on reports so far, it was expected that Bixby will have Viv Labs playing the major role. However, a report by Wall Street Journal claims that S Voice will be at core of Bixby, not technology acquired from the Viv Labs acquisition.
Both the Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+ are expected to debut in March while are rumoured to go on sale from April.
