On August 9, 2018, during its Unpacked press event in New York City that also saw the debut of the Samsung Galaxy Note 9, Samsung officially revealed its first smart speaker, the Samsung Galaxy Home.
It is now exactly one year later and we still aren’t any closer to learning when Samsung will release the device.
On the surface, it looks like the Galaxy Home could follow the path of Apple’s AirPower wireless charging pad, which was first announced to great fanfare in September 2017, only to be quietly canceled in March 2019.
The design of the speaker is certainly different than the ones from Amazon, Google, and others.
It looks a bit like an egg that was placed on a three-legged stand.
That “egg” contains three Harmon speakers, a subwoofer, and eight far-field microphones which are there to detect voice commands via Samsung’s Bixby digital assistant.
