Siri vs. Google Search

Siri, are you the most amazing feature on the iPhone? If you?ve seen any Apple advertising at all, you may come to the conclusion that Siri is indeed the slickest feature available on any phone ever made. You may be surprised to learn, though, that Siri isn?t the only speech-recognizing search-assistant available on the iPhone, and that it may not even be the best one.

Is Google better?

Recently, Google added voice-input capabilities to its free Google Search app for iOS devices. If you haven?t tried that out yet, I highly recommend you do: I find the app's voice input so useful that I?ve given Google Search a spot in my Dock and have essentially retired Siri from everyday use. (Another advantage: Google?s voice search also works on older iOS devices that don?t support Siri, such as the iPhone 4; it runs on any device that supports iOS 4.3 or newer.)

What?s so good about Google?s voice search, especially on a device that comes with Siri already? The best way to answer that question is with a test. I posed the same four questions to Siri and the Google Search app.

  • How do you spell exuberant?
  • Who won the Trailblazers basketball game last night?
  • How do you make vanilla ice cream?
  • How high is Mount Kilimanjaro?

So how?d it work out? See for yourself:
