Siri Voice Assistant on the iPhone 4S
We’ve all heard talk about the new Siri technology in the iPhone 4S, what does it do and why is so impressive? Well Siri s the Apple’s new voice control technology that is set to change the way we interact with our phones. Instead of touching our devices we manage to use them in a more interactive way – by talking to them.
A lot of people have noticed that the iPhone 4S is very similar to the iPhone 4, and there has been much wonder as to why it has still managed to become the fastest selling iPhone to date. Especially when the much cheaper iPhone 4 deals are quite similar. Retailers are now confirming that one of the main reasons for the high volume of iPhone 4S contract sales is down almost entirely to Siri – which is only available on the iPhone 4S.
This Siri technology is involved with a number of other parts of the phone. The device works with most apps and can be used in a number of fashions. This technology can be used to convert currency, take calculations and also to take down notes and responds.
The interesting thing about Sir is that it will not only perform your command but also will look into it and see if there are any other issues you should know about. So for example if you wanted to take a note for something to do on a certain day, then Siri would not only take this down, but will also then see if there are any other things going on that day in your schedule that may prevent you performing a task.
This is one of the amazing things about the technology and something that makes it far more advanced than the likes of Google’s Voice Control.
Siri also learns as it goes and manages to understand your voice as it gets used to you. This technology and the fact Siri learns as it goes means that it is capable of far greater things than previous voice controls that have a set phrase and way to pronounce it. This means that it is adaptable for all accents throughout the world and can be used by most people – something voice control doesn’t always achieve.
The Siri technology also manages to come back with smart quips should you ask it a question. This is set up by Apple to answer back at silly questions. So, those who wish to treat it like Hal 9000 in Space Odyssey will be welcomed with a number of lines in return that will provide a laugh and show how quirky the technology is.
All of these nice features and also Apple’s amazing ability to innovate mean that it is a amazingly smart piece of technology, which for the first time can be used with phones to ensure users get the full voice control experience.
