One of the world's leading manufacturers cannot miss the opportunity to launch something that seems to be working quite well, smart speakers. In this case and after several models that we have presented and others that have already been working for a long time, such as the Google Home or the Amazon Echo, Apple presented its own smart speaker called HomePod at WWDC in June.
The HomePod will not be available until the end of this year and has been a source of leaks thanks to the firmware of the device. Leaking aside the leaks and other data, Apple will have its own smart speaker on the market very soon and obviously the South Koreans are not going to be less and we already have confirmation that they are working on its own speaker powered evidently thanks to its assistant Bixby.
All this about smart speakers in Spain touches us a bit far and it is that the current models they don't have Spanish implemented, something that is undoubtedly a handicap when it comes to buying or not these smart speakers. In the case of Samsung we can say that it already has some speakers on the market and now it has the Bixby assistant, but this assistant is only available in English, something that if not changed would slow down the possible purchase of many users.
In short, the CEO of Samsung DJ Koh himself communicated the work on this speaker in an interview with CNBC and although it is true that there is no presentation date or any data on the speaker, although we do not rule out a possible collaboration with AKG, who is stocking the headphones of your mobile devices. In any case it is possible that for the IFA fair in Berlin that takes place at the end of August show us some details.
Only Apple with its assistant Siri can take part of this market and it is that although it is true that the assistant of the Cupertino guys needs many improvements to really be an assistant, she is the only one who speaks many languages These include Spanish from Spain, Spanish from Latin America, Spanish from Mexico, English, French, German, Chinese, Russian and many more. This gives Apple an advantage in this regard with some improvements in the Siri interaction would not be rival.
