Jelly Bean Search vs. Siri! - Vibrant General

I can't wait till we see this on the Vibrant. Check this out!

I honestly do not think their comparable.
Siri still has a + side to it, for example you can ask it something in any way you want to and it will reply, Google Now does not, yet anyways.
Anything else, Google Now has done better so far, organization, information, etc.

Sir I seems more life like but information providing is not that great but with Now you have to say it like you are googling it

maybe I'm old fashioned, but I just don't see the appeal of either system here. I don't want my phone talking to me.

I agree. There should be a setting to turn off voice if it already isn't there.
I would just like the information without the phones voice.

Oh come on, you wouldn't use this at all (excluding for actual google searches)?

People use siri in public. And you'd probably get use to it after a little while!

I've been using voice transcription a lot more recently, texting, searching, etc. Dragon go in Swype is pretty good. I would definitely use Now.

I agree with you about the latest beta Swype's Dragon Go usefulness. And Nuance is our competitor. I can respond to 10-15 emails in a 40 minute dog walking session.

Yeah, that's a bug in the phone. Sometimes when you use it, the battery level goes down.
Just kidding, so what is the problem? Do you think the battery level went down too fast? You are gonna have to give us more information. What background tasks do you have running? Widgets on the home screen? Etc.
I run beautiful widget and my home screens are mostly full well three of them ate nvm close this thtred

Galaxy S2 Commercial 3: Stay Connected

Sending a text message or making a phone call on the move is easy with the Samsung GALAXY S II. It comes complete with Voice Talk, so no matter what you're doing you will be able to stay connected.
honestly even with voice you shouldn't spend time driving and texting thats simply irresponsible

You have to have Pico TTS or an app of that nature and the Google Voice Search app.
To OP:
Siri is probably the most over rated feature in the history of phones.

I said feature, not design.
When I read about Siri it seemed pretty cool, so I started playing around with what is built into the stock gingerbread android build. (Just hold the search button until the Speak prompt appears). It's actually pretty good. Not as conversational or integrated as Siri, but it works pretty well for sending voice texts and generally navigating the phone.
And yes, Iris is good for a laugh.

Check out Skyvi - https://market.android.com/details?...id=com.bluetornadosf.smartypants&rdot=1&pli=1.
it has a 4.3 rating. haven't tried it out myself yet tho. it incorporates Wolfram Alpha, which is what siri uses i think.
Maybe it's just me, but I don't want to/expect to talk to my phone like it's a person (and have it perform results I expect.)
Saying "weather" and having my phone take me to the weather makes infinitely more sense than asking it "Will I need to wear galoshes to work?"
Granted, some of the actions might need some natural language, and might be nice, but a lot of what I've seen from Siri demoed is just asking simple things in about as dumbass and roundabout a way as possible.
Jeannie is just as good.

I don't think so; I think you may be overstating things a bit. What do you really use flash for on your phone anyway?
I certainly didn't switch TO android because it could do flash.
And I sold phones for a long time and no customer ever told me they chose android because of flash compatibility.
Also, I don't see how your flash comment has anything to do with the Skyvi app.

Some did, but they switched for the wrong reason. I'm sure google has a planned HTML5 or something along the lines better than flash for the impending future. To remove something 'crucial' and NOT have a plan to replace it, is asinine. I'm not worried at all.

Other than asking my phone dumb stuff like "what is the meaning of life?" I do have any real need for Siri-like apps. Maybe if I used my phone while driving or something. What these apps need is an uncanny ability to answer any meaningless question I could come up with. That will sell me.
