The ideal time for new Galaxy S8 owners to try out Bixby Voice and get accustomed to using it regularly would be right at launch, but now the early GS8 buyers won't have that feature to try out.

As if the Galaxy S8 needed any extra features to sell itself, the impressive new smartphone from Samsung has now been shown using its top-end hardware to run GameCube games.

Samsung's new voice assistant, Bixby, is off to a rough start.

"With its intelligent interface and contextual awareness, Bixby will make your phone more helpful by assisting in completing tasks, telling you what you're looking at, learning your routine and remembering what you need to do".

Over just two days last week, Samsung received 550,000 pre-orders for its new Galaxy S8 smartphone, which is set to hit the USA market on April 21. However it is a bit different than Apple or Google's software. It even integrated a camera function which allows Bixby users to recognize prominent buildings, tourist destinations, and other famous places easily.

Currently, Samsung's Bixby and biggest competitor for "Apple's Siri" and "Google Assistant" is available in English and Korean languages.

Bixby has been pitched as major feature in the Galaxy S8, with a dedicated button on the left hand side of the device. This surge in preorders could spell trouble for Samsung as they indicated that preorders have already matched up with their inventory meaning that there could be delays in shipments from the official April 21st release date.

Both Samsung and LG Display now lead the market in flexible screen displays, and LG recently began investing billions of dollars to expand its production capabilities for that technology. Both feature industry first 10nm processors, with support for Giagbit LTE.
