Bixby for Samsung TVs
Samsung has filed a trademark for the term “Samsung Connected Life with Bixby.” The description given in the filing more or less confirms that Bixby for Samsung TVs is going to be launched soon.
It mentions that Samsung Connected Life with Bixby is “software for television in order to find the desired service and / or contents of television by recognition or user's voice.”
Bixby on Samsung TVs will likely support both English and Korean languages like it does currently on the flagship handsets. Samsung recently launched support for Chinese in beta so that's going to be supported as well eventually.
We can expect to find Bixby on many of Samsung's connected devices in the future. There has also been talk of Samsung developing a Bixby-powered smart speaker.
Given that Samsung unveils new TVs at the annual Consumer Electronics Show, it's likely that Bixby for Samsung TVs will be announced at CES 2018 in January.
