Introduced with the release of iPhone 4S, Siri gained so much popularity for its personal assistant capabilities. Will it have the ability to handle price comparisons one day?
Siri allows iPhone 4S owners to use their voice to use their iPhones. With the ability to understand what a person is saying, Siri can figure out the right apps to use to find the answer to a person’s question. Answering you like a personal assistant, Siri can make telephone calls, schedules meetings, sets reminders, send messages, and many other tasks.
The below infographic from t3n News shows a number of key facts about the Siri e.g. many iPhone 4S users use it once a month.
The infographic also highlights how only 26 per cent of iPhone 4S users use Siri to send or receive emails. Another interesting fact is how data usage of iPhone 4S is twice as much as iPhone 3Gs and iPhone 4. Users do need to learn some personal commands to get additional benefit from Siri.
With such remarkable features, is it just a matter of time before Siri can carry out price comparisons on your behalf?
