LG's new smart speaker will be on the market next January and will surely be presented during CES in Las Vegas. In this event many news about technology will be seen and LG will take advantage of the claim that the fair has for the media and will launch its competitor for the Apple's HomePod, the Amazon Echo and the Google Home among others.
For its part, Samsung also has its smart speaker ready for 2018, but in this case there is no specific data and it is possible that they will come across at this event or even that Samsung's will arrive later. The fact is that the new speaker called LG ThinQ Speaker, is within the line ThinQ of the company and will have the Google Assistant.
In this case next Thursday, January 4 It will be the moment in which this new speaker with personal assistant will be unveiled and will get fully into the fight for this market segment that seems to be booming lately.
LG's own press release announces that the speaker can be used through the usual voice commands and will pull the entire database that the Google Assistant already has for voice recognition. Logically, in this case, Spanish will not be available initially either, and although it is true that there are movements in this regard, the only assistant that can speak Spanish correctly is Apple's. Y Apple for its part still does not show a specific date for the official launch of its HomePod, after delaying it a few weeks ago.
