Samsung has announced that they have teamed up with Google Play Music and that the software will be the default music player on their new devices this year.
The company has said that anyone who purchases the Galaxy S8, S8 Plus or Galaxy Tab S3 will get a free three-month subscription to the service.
Enhanced Music Experience
Starting April 21, with the launch of the Galaxy S8 and S8+, Google Play Music* will be the default music player and music service on Android-based Samsung phones and tablets launched in 2017.** With the service, users can enjoy free curated radio and smart music recommendations based on their preferences, and can discover and subscribe to podcasts.
In addition, Samsung has also collaborated with Google Play Music to create exclusive features for users of the aforementioned devices. For example, users can upload and stream up to 100,000 songs from their own music collection on Google Play Music – twice the number available for general service users.
Exclusive Features and Benefits
This partnership between Samsung and Google Play Music is designed to offer a more personalized and enriched music experience. The exclusive features include not only the ability to upload and stream a larger number of songs but also enhanced integration with Samsung’s hardware. For instance, users can expect better sound quality and seamless connectivity with Samsung’s audio accessories.
Moreover, the free three-month subscription to Google Play Music is a significant benefit for new Samsung device owners. This subscription allows users to explore the full range of Google Play Music’s offerings, including ad-free listening, offline playback, and access to millions of songs and playlists. This trial period is an excellent opportunity for users to decide if they want to continue with the service after the trial ends.
Another noteworthy feature is the smart music recommendations. Google Play Music uses advanced algorithms to analyze users’ listening habits and preferences, providing personalized playlists and radio stations. This means that the more you use the service, the better it gets at predicting what you might enjoy listening to next.
Additionally, the collaboration includes the integration of Google Play Music with Samsung’s voice assistant, Bixby. This allows users to control their music using voice commands, making it easier to play, pause, skip tracks, and even create playlists without having to touch their device.
