WSJ: Samsung has changed its mind about abandoning the Google search engine in its smartphones
South Korean company Samsung will keep Google as the default search engine on its smartphones. This is reported by The Wall Street Journal.
WSJ sources found out that the corporation changed its mind about abandoning Google in favor of the Bing search engine, which is being developed by Microsoft. According to experts, Samsung wants to keep the money that Google pays the company for the priority placement of its search engine in the phones of the Korean brand.
According to experts, Samsung’s plans to abandon Google in favor of Bing were caused by the appearance of an artificial intelligence-enabled assistant in the search engine from Microsoft. Also in mid-April, it was reported that Google was upgrading its search engine to make it “more personalized.”
Journalists noted that one of the reasons for keeping Google in Samsung smartphones was the dependence of the Korean company on American technology. In particular, Samsung needs to be “friends” with Google in order to develop the Android OS on its smartphones and use the services of a US corporation.
Earlier, insiders said that Samsung will introduce the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 smartphones on July 26. The release of folding devices on sale is expected on August 11.
