I actually like, use Bixby. So is there any advantage over Google?

Never really use any Assistant on my previous phones, don't know why.

I've been playing around with my S9+ since it came out and I guess out of boredom and figured why not, besides the button is there. LOL

I like it.
 
Bixby works with pretty much all of your settings. And quick commands are good also. It's good having both Google assistant and Bixby. you get the best of both worlds.
 
I don't use it since it only works with English. Korean and Indian I think.. I am Polish and leve in Denmark.. And none of these languages works.. i do t get it why it takes years to add other languages... The sane story is for siri a d other assistents
 
I've used Bixby just a couple times, only to change the screen time out setting. It's actually been pretty nice to be able to quickly do something like that, which is usually (but not really on s9+) a setting that's just too burried to be convenient.

I'm not going to get crazy with it, and I've already disabled the Bixby screen, but I could see using it here and there.
 
Bixby can also be directed to "go into" a certain app and "do X." Which is cool. It seems as if one can create actions as well by customizing Bixby, though I need more experience before really getting into that. Hating Bixby became cool and I think the accidental button touches solidified that feeling. It's not bad in my experience so far.

I agree, it's a trend among some tech reviewers on YouTube that seems to have no actual opinion of their own and just copy what other reviewers are saying...

Bixby is actually really powerful and always improving. It can do many things the Google asistant can't.
I really like using it.

Here's a video that shows some of Bixby's capabilities (it's an older video, so it's even better now, but it'll give you an idea):

I honestly like bixby. But my major problem with it is alot of the time bixby doesn't hear what I say correctly. Google doesn't have this issue.

I do like have a physical button to activate bixby for things such as reminders.
 
I use the Bixby button exclusively (I've turned off the "app" part of it) for dictation on text-messages and web-searches - in lieu of typing. I find it to be quite convenient and remarkably accurate when used in that manner.
