Amazon has the Echo and Google has the home. Earlier in the year there was plenty of speculation that Samsung would be creating their very own smart speaker to compete in this market however Samsung quickly shot down those ideas. Apparently they have had a change of heart. DJ Koh, Samsung's Mobile chief, has just confirmed with CNBC that the smart speaker powered by Bixby will indeed be happening. There are no details at this moment. We aren't even sure if this speaker will be compatible with only Samsung phones or other phones as well. We can expect to hear more as we get into the holiday season.
