Galaxy Home is Samsung's smart speaker with its virtual assistant Bixby. The Galaxy Home was introduced in August 2018 and was intended as a stereo replacement. The Galaxy Home fulfills a similar role to competing products such as the Apple HomePod and speakers from Google and Sonos.
Samsung Galaxy Home smart speaker with Bixby: first look
The Galaxy Home was first announced during Samsung's Unpacked event in 2018. The speaker was showcased on stage and shown to attendees afterward, but specific details about the speaker weren't revealed and attendees didn't get any hands-on time with the device.
Galaxy Home has a distinct look with a black housing with omnidirectional tweeters, supported by three metal legs. The speaker's look has been compared to things like a wine glass and a BBQ grill.
Spotify was promoted as the best music service, deeply integrated into the Galaxy Home. In the future, users who listen to music via Spotify can, for example, from a Samsung phone to a Samsung TV to the Galaxy Home.
