Siri vs Cortana.which is better?
I think that windows phone has finally reached a point where it can compete with Siri and even Google now.
I've used Cortana and Google now but as I have never used an iPhone. So will you please explain which personal assistant is better and why?(personally Cortana takes care of every query of mine).
Please give unbiased answers.
All three assistants are very comparable, however I will state that Cortana is currenly in BETA. It's full potential has yet to be released. With that in mind, given that Cortana can (even in BETA) compete fully with Siri and Google Now on many issues, it's kind of hard not to want to grant "winner" status to Cortana. I'm using the Nokia Lumia Icon with WP8.1 Developer's Preview and can honestly say that I'm EXTREMELY impressed with Windows Phone and Cortana. I switched to WP8 (Nokia 928) after having my Samsung Galaxy Nexus and am still using my Nexus 7 tablet for the few apps that I don't have on WP8.1. Honestly though, as more and more apps appear in the Windows Store, I find myself using the Nexus 7 less and less. Since the Nexus 7 is a "Nexus device", I currently am using Android 4.4.2 and find it to be very "laggy". My friend on AT&T has a Nokia Lumia 925 and has also upgraded to the Developer's Preview. We have compared his 925 to my Icon and my Icon is a little faster than his at most things, but not many. The point is that Android upgrades slow down older devices. Windows Phone 8.1 works just about as well on an older 925 as it does on a newer Icon. So the only advantage to getting a newer Windows Phone is the better camera, more microphones, etc. Basically HARDWARE. Software wise, WP8.1 works PERFECTLY on All Windows Phones. No lag, no freezes, no restarts. This is the reason Google will not make apps for Windows Phone. They know that if they do, their laggy, unstable Android OS is done for.
As far iOS7, it too runs slower on my old iPhone 4. Apple even admits this and supposedly they are trying to work on a "fix" for this, but so far… Also remember that Apple doesn't have it's own search engine. Siri gets its information from Bing Search (Microsoft) and Wolfram Alpha. So, it can't keep track of your interests the way Google Now (Google Search) and Cortana (Bing Search) can. Google tracks EVERYTHING you do with no way to prevent it. Cortana has a notebook that you can tell it what it is allowed to keep track of and what not to.
I'm trying my best to be "unbiased", but given the above, it's kinda hard not to lean towards Cortana.
You can use any search engine to find several reviews that have already been done comparing Cortana and Siri and Now. Most will tell you that Siri is good for some things, Now is good for other things, and Cortana is good at both things.
I've never used Siri, although several of my coworkers use it. I have used Now, and Cortana (Nokia 1520 w/preview WP 8.1) and Cortana is impressive. The only issues I've had with it so far have been caused by noisy environments, not the software. The ability to operate almost all functions of my phone using my Bluetooth headset is what I wanted, something that Android has consistently failed to do for me. Other than to use the camera or surf the web, I don't have to pull my phone out at all.
I watched a show named Gadget guru and in it Cortana was really better from siri and google now
Well right now, its not fair to give an answer since Cortana is still in beta as well as Windows Phone 8.1, vs Siri which has been out for some time now as well as iOS 7.1.1.
Though from what I have seen both have their +s & -s so I'd say they are just about equal.
As far as WP being now a good third option, that's jumping the gun a little. There's still the problem with the lack of apps vs iOS & Android.
All the other answers are super long and I don't do that. My answer is Siri.
- Why is IPhone Siri funnier than iPad Siri? I have an iPad mini. Siri is so boring on mine. She just says, "I can't answer that." Or "is that so?". On my friends iPhone, she replies really funny. Also on the Internet I see funny convos with Siri all from iPhone and not on iPad mini. Why is it that siri is funnier on iPhone? They are both part of apple!
- Which is better the Iphone 5s or the 5c i'm trying to decide which one is better? And what's the difference between these two phones can someone tell me please? I'm trying to decide which one to buy?
- Which iPhone should I get/which one is better? 4s, 5c or 5s? - 1 I'm gonna save up for an iPhone but I don't know which one to get and which one is the best. I'm either gonna get the white iPhone 4s, white and pink iPhone 5c or white and gold iPhone 5s. Which one is the best out of them?
- What's better net10 or straight talk better as in cheaper? I want a smart phone so that would be about 300 dollars there. I want a cheap plan like 45 or 50 dollars a month for unlimited internet. How much is the iPhone 4 and can I use the 50 dollars unlimited for it.
