Honor is set to add Google’s AI assistant Gemini to its future smartphones, per a report by CNBC.
The Chinese smartphone company told the news outlet on Wednesday it will include Google’s AI chatbot in its devices in future, powered by Google Cloud.
Honor recently launched its latest flagship phone, the Honor Magic6 Pro, with a host of AI features. And Honor’s smartphones currently run on Google’s Android alongside Honor’s own MagicOS, so it’s not a huge surprise the company will add Gemini up ahead.
It’s a competitive move, too; Samsung’s Galaxy S24 series recently launched with Gemini, as well as Samsung’s own Galaxy AI (which you can try on any Android phone). An Honor spokesperson also told CNBC its future smartphones will include Google’s text-to-image technology Imagen 2, which is also installed in the Galaxy S24 series.
Unveiled in December by Google’s artificial intelligence research lab, Google DeepMind, Gemini is the company’s major AI model rival to OpenAI’s GPT-4. A whole host of Gemini updates were announced at Google I/O earlier in May.
It’s worth noting Honor’s Magic 6 Pro and the foldable Magic V2 aren’t available in the U.S., though the company just launched the V2 in Europe.
