Description:
Samsung Galaxy Book4 will use Microsoft Copilot to mimic the Apple Ecosystem 
but with your Samsung phone.

FULL STORY
======================================================================

Samsung, in collaboration with Microsoft, is planning to bring a new level of 
connectivity between your PC and smartphone similar to the way iPhone users 
can multitask easily between Apple devices - all thanks to artificial 
intelligence. 

Think about the Apple ecosystem - with each Apple device you add to your 
life, you can send messages, take calls, edit photos and more no matter if 
you're using your iPhone, iPad, MacBook or almost any Apple device. Youre not 
stuck having to pick your phone up every few minutes. This is basically what 
Samsung and Microsoft are hoping to achieve with the new Galaxy Book4 laptop. 

Using the Microsoft Copilot AI assistant youll be able to find, read and 
summarize text messages from your Samsung Galaxy smartphone on your PC and 
either write or generate responses and send them on your behalf directly from 
the Galaxy Book 4. 

Again, to put it in perspective consider quickly opening the iMessage app on 
your MacBook and responding to a friend, but now having the option to 
generate a quick message using Copilot instead of typing up your own. I cant 
think of any situation where I would want an AI to generate a response to a 
text rather than responding myself, but it could be helpful on work PCs that 
require more thought-out messages between colleagues. 

Its good to see Samsung open up its ecosystem, even if its with the help of 
Microsoft Copilot. This is also a good opportunity for Microsoft to show off 
just how naturally a tool like Copilot can fit into peoples lives - something 
it's so far struggled to do. (Image credit: Samsuing) 

As more laptop manufacturers embrace artificial intelligence to boost 
performance and make access to the feature easier, it's good to see Samsung 
embrace the new technology in a more interesting, more useful way. 

Considering how popular the Apple all-in-one ecosystem is, its likely that 
Samsung is envious of that kind of smooth connectivity, and would be trying 
to emulate it with the Galaxy Book4. 

In the same way youre more likely to buy a MacBook if you already have an 
iPhone, or vice versa, Samsung is trying to encourage people to buy more of 
its products by offering a similar set-up between its devices. 

The main difference between the two is that Apple not only produces the 
hardware (the phones, the tablets, the laptops) but it produces the software 
as well. All Apple products run on its own operating systems, but Samsung 
however only produces the hardware - its phones run on Android, and its 
laptops run Windows 11. 

Hopefully, when we do get our hands on the Galaxy Book4 well be able to see 
how this collaboration between the two companies plays out, and if itll be as 
seamless as the all-in-one experience offered by Apple - or even better. You
