> Your post is a bit ironic seeing as the [..] Ironic? I think you're saying that they're incorrect, that the power usage of the voice chip isn't that bad and that it can differentiate between voices but not command phrases. Which I think is a misunderstanding of what they're saying. The fact that you need an entirely custom chip to even make voice processing reasonable in power consumption shows that it's a domain-specific heavy calculation where silicon is the only place to speed it up. The new Moto X has a better domain-specific chip.
