LG to introduce competitor to Amazon Echo and Google Home on January 4th at CES

LG has had its own personal assistant. Back in 2012, the company tested out Quick Voice in Korea. This was LG's version of Siri, Google and Samsung's S Voice. It could gather stock prices, news, weather, sports scores and handle tasks such as sending texts and conducting web searches. Later changed to Q Voice and then to Voice Mate, this platform will probably be used by LG to take on Google Home and Amazon Echo. Microsoft is also coming up with a similar product to be powered by Cortana for later this year, with sound enhanced by Harman Kardon speakers. We should know in a couple of days how LG plans on being competitive in this space.
