Other rumors we've heard tease at potential AI digital scanning capabilities, which could identify items and text through the phone's camera. There may even be a dedicated Bixby button on the S8 itself.

We may find out more about Bixby in a one-minute S8 teaser rumored to debut this month at the Mobile World Congress event. Otherwise, Samsung is expected to introduce the phone, Bixby and all, at an April event in New York City.
