Samsung Galaxy S21 to come with Bixby voice unlock feature

Seoul, Nov 29 : South Korean tech giant Samsung is likely to allow its users to use Bixby Voice as a biometric voice-unlock feature in the company’s upcoming Galaxy S21 series.
According to a report from SamMobile, the Galaxy S21 series is expected to launch the running version 3.1 of One UI, just like the Galaxy S20 and Galaxy S10 ran One UI 2.1 and One UI 1.1 out of the box, respectively.
There will be a couple of new features that will be exclusive to the Galaxy S21 until One UI 3.1 is released for other Galaxy devices and one of those features will be the option to use Bixby Voice as a biometric method for unlocking the device.
The previous version allows users to unlock their device by saying “Hi Bixby”, so there is a chance when it makes its return next year, users will be able to unlock their phone the same way.
Bixby itself has had the ability to unlock the device to follow your commands when you wake it up by saying ‘Hi Bixby’, and initially, it also offered the option to set a voice password for hands-free device unlocking.
Neither of those features can be found in Bixby anymore, but the report said that One UI 3.1 will let users select Bixby voice unlock from the phone’s lock screen security settings.
