Samsung Galaxy S8 and a missed function proves once again how disorganized the Samsung company is and how many problems there are inside it at the moment. You already know for some time that the Bixby personal assistant for the Samsung Galaxy S8 was only launched in South Korea because Samsung failed to properly develop the English language recognition.
Samsung has already broken its promise to Samsung Galaxy S8 customers who are waiting for Bixby, which was supposed to be released last month in the US. Of course, this did not happen, and many customers of the Samsung Galaxy S8 are now wondering if they made a mistake, once again, in believing the promises of the Samsung company, after the problems with the Samsung Galaxy Note 7.
At the root of the problems that Samsung has with the development of Bixby for the Samsung Galaxy S8 is the fact that there is not enough data for the company to develop its software. Bixby was released in beta in the US a few weeks ago, but Samsung users The Galaxy S8 is in no hurry to try it, and Samsung has nowhere to take data to improve it.
Samsung Galaxy S8 and the disorganization of Samsung
All these problems for the development of Bixby for the Samsung Galaxy S8 also contribute to the fact that the engineers of the Samsung company have difficulties in communicating. Engineering teams in South Korea have to communicate constantly with those in the US to develop Bixby for the Samsung Galaxy S8, but it seems that they are not able to do this effectively.
The efficiency is affected by the long distance between the engineers' offices, but also by the fact that the engineers in South Korea do not seem to understand English very well, and Samsung Galaxy S8 customers lose the most. I don't know to what extent Samsung expected its engineers not to understand each other very well, not even in English, but this seriously affects the development of Bixby and implicitly the evolution of the Samsung Galaxy S8.
"Developing Bixby in other languages is taking more time than we expected mainly because of the lack of the accumulation of big data. Many engineers in the US are making full efforts to develop the English version. But, (due to geographical and language barriers) their frequent reports to and communication with the management located in Korea makes the progress much slower than developing the Korean version here."
Unlike the Apple company, those from Samsung constantly make promises that they cannot fulfill, and with the Samsung Galaxy S8 they could upset a lot of people. Bixby has been a focal point in promoting the Samsung Galaxy S8, but the lack of its features for everyone outside of South Korea is further proof that Samsung would do anything for sales, short of acting right.
Having said that, if you are thinking of buying a smartphone like the Samsung Galaxy S8 in the future, you have to keep in mind that anything that is not offered from the start, could end up being very difficult, or not at all.
