Samsung’s new flagship smartphone comes with S Voice, the Korean company’s response to Apple’s Siri technology. And it’s not a bad response by any means: it allows you to initiate calls, of course, but also wake up the phone, send texts and emails, request a particular song, adjust the volume, take a photo, open up the calendar and bring up a weather forecast. And snooze the alarm, for when you’re too tired to even move your arm. And it’ll work with eight languages on launch. When Samsung rips something off, it does it properly.
