Jesus, if you don't find someone who has spent his entire life reviewing every single product, while also being platform agnostic and owning multiple devices, who do you trust? Besides how is his conclusion controversial anyhow? Isn't it widely agreed upon that Google Assistant is better than Siri?

Constantly. I use Google Assistant dozens of times every single day. Set timer, how old is whoever, what's this times that, turn off the christmas lights, where's my phone, shuffle my thumbs up playlist, play thunderstorm sounds, set the alarm for 6am, call Cuyahoga Falls Home Depot, navigate to the Mentor Branch, remind me to order triple squares at 6pm, remind me to get milk next time I'm at Giant Eagle, which president's were assassinated in office, what's the market cap of Microsoft, set the ecobee to 71 degrees, turn off the fan, what's the forecast for the day, what time does Acme close?

I could go on and on and on. I do most of these things without interacting with the phone in any way. In fact, most of the time, it's sitting on the piano or something and not even near me.

Really? I kinda hate mine. It comes with a special wrench you need to keep track of, getting the tension right after disassembly is a pain, and they rust in like 5 hours and lose their edge. I'm back to using the good kitchen shears.
