Can you set default browsers and mail apps? What about digital assistants- can you switch to Alexa? Can you set your default music player to Spotify and control it with your voice?

you will have to do all of that because nothing that comes stock with it works.

Even the question about Alexa? That seems wrong.

There is an Alexa app on Android. You can use Alexa, Cortana, Goggle Assistant, or Bixby on a Samsung Galaxy.

It looks like you have to actually launch the app though. Can't just speak to it. Still though, had no idea.

Did a little more research and I don't think you can make Alexa or any other digital assistant the "default." It can be installed like on an iPhone, but not as the system default. Looks like you are stuck with Bixby or whatever that is.
