What’s New in Galaxy Note 3

Saw an article about game changers in the Galaxy Note 3.

It has a few interesting insights. They refer to Samsung’s S-Voice now as “Always on S Voice” and mention that the new Note 3 will be designed to be always on, listening for your wake up command.

The Galaxy Note 3 also uses the Qualcomm SnapDragon 800. This is the chip from Qualcomm that has an always listening wake up command built in. Sorry, Qualcomm, but I don’t think Samsung will be using your technology!

The best performing “always listening” processors combine Sensory’s TrulyHandsfree with an ultra-low power chip, like IP from Tensilica and CEVA. Chip companies like Cirrus Logic, DSPG, Realtek, and Wolfson seem well positioned to lead in mobile chips with “always on” listening features.
