Inainte de lansarea iPhone 4S Apple a implementat Siri si in versiunea beta a iOS 5 pentru terminalul iPhone 4, angajatii companiei avand posibilitatea de a testa modul in care functioneaza noul asistent personal pe vechiul dispozitiv. Informatia vine de la o sursa din interiorul Apple care sustine ca, compania din Cupertino a luat in calcul posibilitatea de a implementa oficial noul asistent si in iPhone 4 dar ca in final l-a scos din iOS 5-ul public si din versiunea data angajatilor. Totusi pana recent angajatii companiei s-au jucat cu asistenul, desi iPhone 4S era deja pe piata, si cred ca testele au avut succes pentru ca portul facut chiar saptamana trecuta dezvaluie faptul ca Siri functioneaza fara probleme cu vechiul dispozitiv.
Apple is still considering releasing Siri on the iPhone 4 and even went as far as installing a special build of iOS 5, that includes Siri, on a number of Apple employee’s iPhone 4 handsets recently to test it out for a few days. Of course, the fact that Apple tested Siri on the iPhone 4 is a given. However, the fact that they’re considering it after the iPhone 4S release and even letting employees use it outside of the campus as a test drive shows that there still is a chance this will become a reality. Yet, Apple has now finished the test drive and removed the feature from the employees’ iPhones to minimize the chances of it getting out. We’re hoping it’s because they want it to be a surprise, and not because they have decided not to release it.
Desi multi ar vedea in aceste informatii o confirmare tacita a faptului ca Apple ar putea implementa Siri in iPhone 4, va recomand sa reveniti cu picioarele pe pamant deoarece Apple nu va face o asemenea greseala. Siri este principalul lucru pentru care lumea cumpara iPhone 4S si implementarea in iPhone 4 ar anula imediat avantajul noului dispozitiv si ar reduce drastic vanzarile. Nicio companie din lume nu are o conducere indeajuns de “proasta” incat sa ia o asemenea decizie deci nu va asteptati ca Siri as ajunga pe iPhone 4. Daca el va ajunge totusi, atunci inseamna ca Apple ori ii va reduce functionalitatea ori va avea alte noutati pregatite pentru iPhone 4S in ideea de a ii oferi un avantaj mare fata de vechile dispozitive.
In final va spun ca pe iPod Touch 4G testele Siri nu au avut succes din cauza microfonului implementat in dispozitiv, Apple preferand sa inchida sesiunile de teste cu mult inaintea celor pentru iPhone 4.
A second source also confirmed to us that the test went really well as far as performance is concerned. Unfortunately, the microphone of the iPod touch 4G is not as good as the one on the iPhone; this could hold Siri back from that device if it can’t be overcome with software.
