Samsung introduced Bixby late last year. It’s the company’s new voice assistant that it launched with the Galaxy S8. Samsung says that Bixby allows users to do almost everything that they can do with a tap by just using voice commands on the handset. That being said, it rolled out Bixby before it was completed.

but it hasn’t said officially if such a device is in the pipeline.

The Wall Street Journal reports today that Samsung has a new smart speaker in development which will be powered by Bixby. The project is reportedly codenamed Vega. The report doesn’t provide any information about the design, features and specifications of this device.

It does point out that Vega’s development is facing delays because of Bixby. It’s still not ready for public release and according to the scribe, Samsung is not seeing the full release of Bixby Voice before the second half of July.

It can’t be said for sure right now when Samsung might be able to bring this smart speaker to market. It’s all contingent upon the company’s progress with Bixby.
