If you dl IRIS and use IVONA HQ you'll get good really high quality sound when IRIS replies. My phone is a british woman.

Iris just isn't there yet. Iris is good for a few smartass remarks that's about it.

Didn't even think that app was there thanks

I installed iris.
"no speech input" shows up for me. I'm on CM7 :-/ Maybe i'm over looking something.

Android assistant is good too

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.

This is funny

Vlingo- free from the market....very good! Even car mode with voice to text!

Speaktoit is good also...
Epic Life, Epic Phone... It all makes sense to me.

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.

Jeannie is good and free

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.

(market app)siri alternative voice assistant

HELLO GUYS,
with the iphone 4s become popular with siri ,evryone seems to be so attracted by the functionality of it !!WHY DO WE NEED TO FEEL JEALOUS?
we have an ANDROID! here i would like to share with you some of the apps similar perforing just what siri does i tested em on our p500 and it does work really well
speaktoit assistant----https://market.android.com/details?id=com.speaktoit.assistant&hl=en
jeanne----https://market.android.com/details?id=com.pannous.voice.actions.free&feature=more_from_developer
iris--https://market.android.com/details?id=com.dexetra.iris
vlingo-https://market.android.com/details?id=com.vlingo.client&hl=en
AS FAR AS WHAT I HAVE TESTED:
speaktoit is better for user interactions and commanding like telling it to open poweramp music player ,or calendar,or messages or any app etc and jeanne is good for getting factual infos..
my tiny bro from kindergarden came into the room and asked it who is the prime minsiter of india!
and guess what it gave th eanswer along whit some info about the prime minster..
really nice

Downloading now
thnx for posting it here
but does it accepts Indian Accents??
many have reported that they got only 15-20% success rate with siri (Indian Accent)

My experience is great with it ...
Not sure about accents cos i speak just normal english (not too conplexed) with easy adaptable pronunciation ..

Hello all...
check out this link for possible of porting SIRI for android...a good tech news
http://www.pcworld.com/article/2438...d_version_flying_pigs_possible.html#tk.hp_ess

Even though iris is made, IMO Siri is way better

New app in town..
Try Skyvi, though i personally dont like any apps of such kind, saying that others are pretty happy with it..

Apparently S Voice thinks Apple iPhones are better

It appears the youtube tag is messed up as of now, use the direct link instead:

Nah, s-voice just knows how to use its sarcasm function!

That was the first question I asked in the video...

I just asked...
"what is the best smartphone?" and mine replied "Opinion may very but I think Samsung Galaxy is the best of them all"

Both Samsung S-Voice and Apple Siri heavily rely on a third-party vendor for the understanding of natural language questions and the corresponding replies, this party being Wolfram|Alpha.
Here's a textual link to the question on that provider's website:
http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=what+is+a+better+smartphone
The only fail on the part of Samsung I can see is that S-Voice seems to be unable to copy with lists as reply to their API-query; it literally speaks out the numbering of the entries...

When I asked it which smartphone is better,
S Voice responds with:
"I'm not sure what you mean by better"

I asked mine 'which is the best smartphone' and I got...
'i'm not sure what you mean by which is the best lovehurts'. Thanks again galaxy!

That wouldn't really make any sense it would make more sense to make a camera that looks like ios camera which I'm sure they already have (no I haven't checked)
