Samsung has unveiled its latest feature, Bixby Text Call, for select smartphones in India. 

This new addition allows users to harness the power of Bixby's automated voice assistance to answer and respond to incoming calls. 

Initially launched in Korean, the feature has now been made available in English and expanded to more countries.

How Bixby Text Call works, features, and compatibility

Users can conveniently choose from a variety of predefined quick responses or type their own messages using the keyboard. 

Once a response is crafted, Bixby reads it out to the caller, ensuring a smooth communication process. Users can also review and read through previous conversations.
