Exactly. I use Siri on my iPhone, also tried Google assitant app recently, having an echo at home too. Siri is way worse than the other two in terms of speech recognition and features. I felt Apple is better off to completely buy Google as the back end and simply focus on the hardware, where is their strength.
- mozumder 9y agoI think this is less a Siri device and more a home-TV device. My understanding is that this device includes a screen. Right now I could use a 17" 16:9 iPad with a stand and maybe an optional detachable keyboard, as I find I'm using my 12" iPad Pro more and more for TV/movie viewing. I could use something like that for a bedroom nightstand. I don't think Siri will be the focus of this product. I hope not, at least, because it definitely isn't the top assistant. Apple's strength is it's device media capabilities, and they should exploit that instead.
- JCharante 9y agoBloomberg said that the device won't have a screen, and will instead focus on having a better speaker.
- vlunkr 9y agoThat's interesting. I've always thought echo was much much worse at speech recognition. It also does ridiculous things, like my toddler asked it what bread is, and echo proceeded to tell us about Bread, the rock band... Granted, Siri tends to just open up a web search.
