Is my smartphone really that smart?


Nowadays everything is smart. Smart phone, clock and even incredibly smart people, like the ones who write on this blog.

So in the times we are living in, everybody has a smartphone or at least it is very hard to find someone who doesn't. Whether it has an iOs, android or symbian operating system we all seem to be amazed by the things we get to do with our phones.

With smartphones you are able to easily navigate through menus, applications and more. You can have internet access and even amazing cameras. But are they really, smart?

A new series of smartphones are arriving and they sure are. Now you are able to speak to them, with them and other prepositions as well. I'm not just talking about a phone that stays quiet while you ask, sing or whatever it is that you do with your phone, but about a phone that answers back.

The first to bring this technology were iOs phones, and more specifically, the iPhone 4S. They named this assistant, Siri. She is able to find information for you on the internet, send messages and even answer silly questions. Now with the arrival of the iPhone 5, a new version of Siri has come. Some improvements have been made but still she is not the best you can find in the market.


Android is known for its amazing features and the capacity the company has to always bring new software updates. The last one is called Jellybean and with it, a new voice experience. The Google Search.

Although Siri has a lot more personality, G search is faster and much more of an assistant, with a less robotic voice. The smartest.

Here you can watch a video in which they are compared.

So if you are looking for a new cellphone and are so busy that you need an assistant, think of which one you'd like to have.
