Google Assistant vs Siri vs Bixby vs Amazon Alexa vs Cortana - Best virtual assistant showdown

[@TheJoeHindy]

Thank you for watching everyone! I hope you enjoyed it :) I wanted to a better job this year than I did last year (it wasn't great, in fact, don't go watch that one lol). Just in case I didn't make it clear in the video, my selections are: 1. Google Assistant (barely) 2. Alexa (if she had YT support and more devices, she'd have been #1) 3. Siri/Bixby (they're neck and neck in my opinion) 4. Siri/Bixby 5. Lol 6. Doing it yourself 7. Cortana Seriously, I wish MS would step up their game. Anyway, if you liked it, give it a share!

[@preston5947]

Joseph Hindy Thanks!

[@jaypob]

Great vid again Joe. I've used Alexa since the Echo first available for Prime members, and I've been impressed with how quickly it's improved since then.

[@TheJoeHindy]

Alexa is right up there. It did much better than expected.

[@kimsfarmadventures3877]

How do I get it on my iPhone 7+?

[@wojak6793]

Kim Heath you can’t get Alexa on iOS but you can install a google assistant app on ios

[@AliAlRabeeiaaa41]

Getting both Google Assistant and Bixby in one phone is the best thing ever

[@felowindows8280]

In opinion Cortana is the best

[@amanywahba378]

Wait tell you hear that Samsung is now friends with Microsoft Wich means I the future we can have a note 11 with Cortana

[@jothimalanathan4159]

I have both in one phone

[@dizzydrake4433]

@@amanywahba378 they might let you open cortana from bixby if they did that it would be cool.

[@YogeshGosavi]

Yay finally someone remember cortana to Add in comparison 😅 Mkbhd skipped cortana

[@omegashin9420]

Yeah, she has a defining personality.

[@coldbrew6104]

Agreed!

[@pkj6684]

On purpose though

[@rodrigo4379]

Google is probably the best one

[@theroyalmemes8611]

Bixby: Smart Google: Funny. (google assistant can play games with you) Siri: open apps Cortana: i love xbox Alexa:Buy some products

[@avi_mukesh]

So they all win?

[@r3q901]

ask google to sing a lullaby, her sound is surprisingly good

[@dizzydrake4433]

more bixby the funny one. Her responses look like they had actual work put into them. Most are at least 2 sentences long.

[@VoodooMadMike41]

Bixby is an early product and already performing on par and better in some instances than several year old assistants. That's really impressive. Besides, if you have Bixby, you have Google Assistant so you get the best of both worlds.

[@MarkAelham]

Google assistant will always win. Saved ur 19 min

[@user-sw1sr8bn5t]

Thanks 😎

[@funbro99]

Siri can roast everyone

[@zzzzz28]

[@eventusvantos2770]

No it won't.

[@michaelfisher2540]

Read my post to find out more details BEST TO LAST 1ST - CORTANA WINS ALL THE TIME Best assistant to date if not BEST EVER 2ND - GOOGLE (On mobile only) 3RD - BIXBY (JUST) 4TH - ALEX LAST PLACE - SRI

[@hariharan1317]

I use Google Assistant and bixby in my s8

[@xusiaxod6255]

Same here. We also have Amazon Echo in the house, Alexa is very versatile and can be fun.

[@beastZz706]

Hari Haran that's why I love samsung phones lol

[@jothimalanathan4159]

I use both In galaxy a 70

[@bruceli9094]

Its impossible to beat GA. Google owns the worlds data, has the best search engine, best Map, KZbin, and friggin Android which is 89% of all phones!

[@MiguelBleau]

All the others have years on bixby and bixby still does many things better. I enjoy using bixby.

[@victoralhilali3893]

Google assistant for web searches... Bixby for phone control

[@RDogg69]

You can add your own shortened commands to Bixby

[@Muhammad_Abdullah_Sultan]

Use Cortana on Windows phone so you an expect better results

[@kunaltipre2619]

I got new update on fast ring yesterday and its not dead yet

[@coldbrew6104]

Cortana is available on any Android phone with their app.

[@gelloonuj5045]

I downloaded Cortana in my android phone because ga is not compatible on my phone and its actually good

[@ad-ik1893]

Bixby is unbeatable when it comes to navigating throw the apps. Really handy because that's exactly when I use Assistant - when I can't touch the screen. I hope Google Assistant will get something similiar soon.

[@game______on]

surprising how bixby outperform cortana even though she is a new type of porduct

[@moreplasticofficial]

THANK YOU, for saying, okay assistant

[@edwinfcapidos]

Google Assistant is a good combination with Bixby. But in the future, Bixby can do it all.

[@143codydrewbieber]

Who own an s8 they're so Lucky having both Bixby and Google Assistant on their phone. Those are far better than Siri

[@Suki4r]

Google Assistant

[@PicoFluffDerg]

Being an s8+ owner i jump between google assistant and bixby now that i can FINALLY use its voice functions in australia

[@umarpatel6621]

Right now Google Assistant is the best and Bixby is close second. However Bucky us brand new and has way more potential than any other Assistant. It can already do more than most others

[@ryuhayabusa3540]

Google assistant for the win

[@nintenjoeee]

THANK YOU FOR INCLUDING CORTANA. YE ARE THE BEST.

[@nintenjoeee]

HAHA, Cortana opened Google Chrome and not Microsoft Edge. (Might have been set as the default browser but still 😂)

[@cameronh3260]

Samsung is the best because it has Bixby and Google.....Google fills in bixby weak spots and Bixby fills in Googles weak spots.....best of both worlds tbh

[@syg_siman]

And you can still add Alexa and Cortana to your s8

[@Silvernirvash]

I am for the most part happy with google assistant however the lack of uber support, the inability to recognize music with the assistant and NOT having to go to google now to get that kind of function, and the simple fact that when i tell my google assistant to open "my browser" and "go to a specific website" and it just closes the assistant and fails to complete the task irks me after seeing Bixby do all of these kind of things pretty flawlessly. If i COULD have bixby on my google pixel i'd have it on the side for those things my GA couldn't complete. I'm sure Bixby has music recognition along with uber support and those other things mentioned above.

[@vedanshchn]

Siri: okay here's the weather. WTH? He asked for you to reply orally 😑

[@joynader655]

I think that Bixby won but Google assistant would always be my favourite

[@leobergstrom5570]

With bixby you can say stuff like go to the camera setting and change the resolution to 4k and take a photo. With bixby you can control your phone completely handsfree, and if you combine it with Google Assistant, you will be ready to go :)

[@ViniciusSilva-gf1sg]

Cortana has support for Uber. You have to enable it in the connected services.

[@edhemjunuzovic6562]

Google Assistant rocks :)

[@abdulkadirrounak290]

That was a Damn good breakdown and presentation Joe! Respective companies should take some notes from this!😉

[@user-hn1gp7fd2u]

Cortana and google assistant are super smart. They told the next solar eclipse occurrence with respect to user's current location.

[@joshuamawango8460]

Google assistant is the more polished one maybe because Google (the company) has access to lots of information about all of us. Bixby seems to be improving and if machine learning also applies here, am sure with time it will get even much better and be up there as well. Good news for galaxy owners is we got both google and bixby😉

[@rileybusse9351]

Bixby and Google Assistant will always be better than Siri and Cortana and Alexa the reason Alexa did well is because you linked it to your Amazon Echo that's the only reason why otherwise it wouldn't be able to do the things that it was doing

[@gr8jasmo]

I have Alexa, Cortana, Bixby, and Google Assistant all on my phone. I use Alexa the most when I am home with my echo devices but bounce between Bixby and Google Assistant on my phone. The only time I use Cortana is when I am sitting at my computer and I want to send text from phone, you can use voice command from your computer to and it will send the message from your phone.

[@JediRhymeTrix]

This guy fucks

[@davidking1426]

Bixby is in still beta but doing amazing stuff! Imagine what it'll do in future 🔮

[@phillydude135]

Once you get used to using proper context and phrasing (as in, proper to Bixby), Bixby is probably the most powerful assistant. Plus, shortcut commands allow you do perform complex multi step tasks with a single word or short phrase. It does take more tinkering and setting up so to speak than the others, but the reward is a completely new way to interact with your device.

[@indrajithkl664]

The reason why google assistant don't perform user interface control like bixby is because of security issues because anyone can bypass the voice recognise and can do anything

[@johnnyquest2651]

I honestly didn't know Bixby can do as much as it did. I use both Bixby and Google for separate tasks. I might be giving into Bixby alot more.

[@kevinbatts2804]

I've been trying really hard to use Bixby with pretty spotty results. I've been giving it some time.

[@aaroheekulkarni8487]

3:23 That Bixby joke lol 😂

[@renaldoaggrey7060]

Bixby and Google​ make one heck of a team, I have learned to use them together

[@samfederspiel1189]

Personally I have an iPhone but I hardly use Siri ever. It's more of a pain trying to use an assistant than to just performing the task my self

[@coldbrew6104]

Google's efficiency is the best, but I find Cortana to be more chatty and personalized towards me. :) Also, you could've gotten the Cortana app to make it more fair. I have it on my phone and it definitely works with KZbin and other functionality.

[@francisxavierpaul7952]

Bixby is impressive

[@polarisgemini52]

Alexa throughout the test: meh Alexa ordering a pizza: Yes master,I am a self sentient robot. I will order exactly the kind of pizza you want.

[@sbn025]

now this is how you do a comparison!! Great video, Joe!

[@ZeldagigafanMatthew]

I see a Raising Cane's box, and know you're a man of culture.

[@McDavis]

Its a very funny competition between platform assistants! This video deserves a like!

[@bruceli9094]

It's funny how all these Assistants depends on Google to search for information 😅

[@random-accessmemory9201]

Bixby is a beast!

[@rahmanatiqur2332]

Nah Google is the best one

[@sovietdogmmunist5989]

So what

[@valeriarodriguez2900]

Nah Cortana is the best

[@M_Huzaifah]

This explanation is imho much better than MKBHD's latest video of voice assistant battle.

[@clashwithdragonfx6774]

in day to day usage bixbys advanced features are the most useful

[@keithreynolds6444]

So a long time apple fan here. I recently got issued a Pixel 2 for work and I was amazed with Google Assistant. It’s a world of difference and so much better than Siri. Does anyone else get mad that Siri just results in web searches all the time. Then she displays it on the screen for literally 4 seconds before it completely disappears. How is this not fixed yet?!

[@JosephQuillen]

Great video! Overly thorough, and I love it! Glad you SHOWED us what happened. Many vids just sum things up. Seeing the responses is key, because they pair audio with visuals. Thanks!

[@bella_iris]

I love the FFXV background on your computer.

[@republicsentinel7196]

Very nicely done! I learned a lot from this vid. I'm Happy bixby performed well because I'm planning on picking up the note 8

[@chidianuforo3670]

I use Bixby to complete a very complicated task each night. All I need to say is "good night" and Bixby sets up my alarm, turns on "do not disturb", optimizes my phone, turns on power save mode, closed all recent app, and turns off the screen while I lay in bed, ready to sleep. I say good morning and Bixby turns off the alarms, turns off power save mode, and turns off do not disturb. I honestly love Bixby

[@MrGelowe]

Generally you would use an assistant when you cannot do something with your hands. For example, when driving I use Waze. I cannot just get an assistant to change my route or get me information that I might be seeking without needing to click on something. Assistants have a long way to go before they are worth using. As it is, they are just novelty features.

[@chris200830]

Bixby + Google Assistant combo is the best!

[@Mamo878]

"Cheap under-powered POS tablet" Is that an official technical term of art for electronics gear?

[@narendra7221]

I loved this video even without watching

[@narendra7221]

Aman Raj yes somehow

[@wolffe97]

Bixby Can nearly do anything. In Future its the completest Assistant. Bixby Squad ☝️

[@arlogodfrey1508]

You can order Pizza with Cortana if you enable the skill. A lot of skills for Cortana are popping up recently

[@geekoslicer]

Google is the most advanced here honestly speaking and it's followed by bixby, siri, alexa and cortana

[@picco_only]

bixby is the one to be hoping to do more in future

[@Chris-nj4yn]

Lucky for us Amazon and Microsoft just signed a deal to allow Alexa to be run on Microsoft devices and Cortana to have access to Alexa skills.

[@hamzasami8362]

If u own a device that can support Bixby, which is currently on Samsung s8 and note 8, which will grow in the future, ur in luck and u also have Google assistant. Google assistant Is absolutely great for searching things quickly and effectively giving u direct answers most of the time instead of links. Bixby is not made for research as much as it's made to use ur phone internally without touching it. It's good for handicap and while driving.

[@ClaytonMathisVO]

Personally I like Cortana more because of cross between windows and android app

[@Supreme_Court.]

Google and Bixby look to be the best. Sure is nice having them both baked into one phone.

[@clementoseitano7568]

It seems third party support has been Microsofts's major problem these past years, from apps on their store to plugins for their browser to Cortana integration.

[@ajithchandranr2025]

Very well put together video. Thanks. Personally not using any AI assistance for now.

[@manojkc2509]

Google assistant i em using in beta version. I have s voice which is worse, don't catch any of my command but google is suporb. Love it and i wanna provide 4.5 to 4.8 rating.

[@adityashandilya2789]

i personally think this was the best review of all the assistants

[@PeterArnold1969]

I use Google assistant on my Nexus 6P, and for the most part, it performs well.

[@danmorrissey449]

i use both google assistant on my Lg G6 and curtana on my laptop and siri on my mack but i find that google assistant i the most useful as it is the best at completing tasks and you don't have to instal any third party apps to do specific tasks

[@shotsgalaxabletv8293]

1. Google Assistant 2. Bixby 3. Siri 4. Alexa 5. Cortana

[@TriggerHappyy78]

Bixby works for me as I'm not gonna buy anything else then a Samsung device. What Bixby can do with Samsung devices is freaking amazing

[@pbilk]

Cortana because I am in the Microsoft environment and it's cross-platform. Those are a biggest reasons, but I do hope Microsoft puts more attention in Cortana and also I hope Build 2018 clears up some of that.

Google assistant is the best, but Bixby is also great

[@psychicspy1234]

cortona is good in microsoft mobile -_- . i have lumia 950.iphone 6 and honor 8 .. cortana and google are easily better than siri. siri is (what i felt) mostly for north american users regarding maps and searches . you need to be very specific if you are outside that area.

[@shawnstuckey2461]

6 months now..Bixby is awesome.

[@arctixgaming9946]

Google assistant is the better one.But I use cortona and google assistant.thanks

[@bella_iris]

I prefer to use Alexa because I love how quick and easy to use the Kindle Fire is. Alexa sings to me or plays Skyrim with me while I work out in the room with the Echo dot, which keeps me from being bored. She is quick and polite and doesn't let me down. I was also gifted a tablet which has Google Assistant, however perhaps it is just the tablet itself, but responses seem much slower and delayed. Cortana is on my husband's laptop, but he uses it very infrequently as he says he often does not get the information he wants or enough information when asking questions, or Cortana will misunderstand him. My husband sometimes has a thick accent and I would like to note that Alexa does not have trouble understanding me or him from our Echo Dot.

[@matthewcalton4686]

Really gotta roast the Giants like that 😭

[@jacobnathanielzpayag3885]

I use google assistant but switched to Cortana because I usually spend a lot of time with my PC than my phone

[@badraoul69]

This was a fair contest, and kudos for keeping it even handed. I use voice assistants most while driving, when I really need to be hands free. Top use cases: getting directions, and sending text messages or phone calls. I find Siri to be adequate at this, and misses my commands about half the time. I really miss Cortana on Windows Phone, which was the best implementation to date IMHO. It would detect when driving, and read out text messages to me, and allow to respond (even rewriting sentences) with just voice. It's a shame that functionality has mot been ported to Android or Apple.

[@sic22l]

So you asked Bixby and GA to order you some food but for the rest you were much more specific ("open Domino's app and order a pizza).

[@MunchaGeorge]

12:28 *"WORK!"*

[@jasongabe5678]

Who else never uses a personal assistant 😂😂😂😂

[@victoralhilali3893]

jason gabe joy gabe .if you had bixby... you just can't not use it... it's amazingly futuristic in controling your phone

[@ForestFairy]

I used mine very little until I taught mine to play memes from KZbin on demand.

[@exiledfrommyself]

I use it occasionally to set a timer.

[@ERoserie]

You're from my town!! Great video. Google for the win.

[@barrettross3772]

Looks like Alexa lost to the reminder one But I’m pretty sure reminders are supported on the echo devices

[@ShashankAdluri]

Siri is fast in approaching.Google assistant is smart in searching.Bixby has good integration with storage/sd.Alexa speaks for u without showing.
