The battle for the best (or worst) assistant on Windows seems to continue, as Samsung has recently announced that it's bringing Bixby to the new Windows 11.

Coming pre-loaded using the updated Galaxy Book, Bixby can search for files or launch apps using nothing else than a voice command.

Samsung hopes users will discover the magic of Bixby and give up on any other assistant they may have on their devices, such as Cortana, especially because it also offers SmartThings-related capabilities.

"For much more mobility together with your device, Samsung has introduced Bixby on Windows for Galaxy Book users to provide an intuitive way to communicate with your computer. Through simple voice commands, searching for files, open apps and Settings as well as control devices in your SmartThings-registered device ecosystem. Simply say "Hi Bixby" or press CTRL, Shift and B or FN and B simultaneously to activate the Bixby on Windows feature, and revel in easy installation by visiting the Microsoft store or searching for Bixby inside your Windows taskbar," Samsung said in an announcement.

Samsung Galaxy Book is prepared for Windows 11

Like the remaining PC makers out there, Samsung has prepared its Galaxy Book for Windows 11, so the update should already be available on the device if you own one.

Inside a press release shared now, Samsung explains that all the most recent technologies on the desktop can be used on Windows 11 too, including Link to Windows to pair smartphones with PCs.

"With the update, you can check your phone connectivity status, manage sound controls as well as enable 'Do Not Disturb' mode on your Galaxy Book series, all with the help of the familiar UI just like the thing is in your Galaxy smartphones and tablets for additional seamless control using your PC. Connect to Windows also includes Dark Mode for comfortable viewing experiences no matter the time," the organization says.

The Galaxy Book Pro 360 5G includes Windows 11 pre-loaded, and many other Galaxy Book models should get the upgrade to the new OS within the coming weeks.
