So which assistant do YOU think will be the first to go, or last the longest? ...I have my own theory but I want to hear yours.

The 'conversation' between them at the end is priceless! Thank you for all the down-to-earth info!

Would love to see a similar comparison for smart home hubs. Your previous video is 2 years old and it would be interesting to see how new features and new players in the space might change your opinion.

Great video editing on this one. I loved the assistant banter.

8:01 Siri's nonchalant "nope!" took me out 😂

Would love if you talked about what you do for all of the custom smart speaker dialog you use in your videos. I know there are roundabout ways of getting them to read text, but as much as you include dialog with and between them in your videos I have to think you've come up with an interesting or creative workflow for it by now.

That was one of the most information & humorous videos EVER! Great job!!

Amazing video! Lots of hard work and excellent editing went into this! Thank you for the information.

I can’t wait to see chat gpt implemented in a voice assistant of some sort. My Google home devices have become frustratingly difficult to talk to due to their lack of ability to understand context half the time, and constant errors when it asks me if I want to know more information about something, but then doesn’t give me more when I say yes.

I have made my home smart using the amazon echosystem purely. The drop in feature is amazing. I recently bought a new Echo Pop and now it synchs with my dot to play music from both speakers. Its cheap, easy to use and fun

The end!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for the video!! keep it uuuuup!!

That is really amazing ! Great reviews and comparison . Thank you for letting us know.

learning so much from you bro cheers! keep it up

Thanks mate! I loved every second of this video, I just laid in bed trying them functions out as you were mentioning them😅. Totally subscribing

I have Google and Amazon all over my home and they absolutely THE BEST! Thanks for this amazing video sending love from Virginia

Great video, a lot of fun, thanks! I've been pretty happy with Google Max but there's always room for improvement!

Here in Sweden the battle is between Google and Siri. Alexa doesn’t speak swedish and has only been available to buy directly from Amazon for between one to two years (and there are still a lot of Echos like the Echo Studio that you can’t buy) Siri learnt Swedish on the HomePod just over a year ago. Google was the first and therefore have by far most the biggest market share here in Sweden. But Apple is catching up…

Google's obvious biggest problems are obviously the routine and automation integration and customization. The speaker and assistant itself is good. Overriding custom questions and routines 3rd party commands require need work. I'm referring to services like myq that require you to say 'ask myq'. If you use the command like close the garage doo it will work close to 100% of the time but if you use a few lines that would replace "ask myq is the garage door open" it mostly responds with the time of local autoshops. Not really sure if there's something that makes sense out there. I know there have previously been work arounds. None are successful for seemless garage door and google assistant integration.

Great video Reed. Loved the editing! 👏👏

Great vidio and informative, timely for me as moving into a new home and want to itterate into the smart home world ... time to watch some of your other vids!

amazing intro and outro! you just nailed it! subscribed!

Outstanding review. Thank you.

I love the videos where you have them fighting 😂

Awesome video! Informative, AND hilarious!! 😂 Love it! I'm subscribing.

Looking at setting up our first smart home. Thinking of doing basics really. Lights, thermostate, plugs (for washing machine etc) looking to grab an echo 10 and go from there. do you think that's viable?

ive been waiting for a video like this

This is the video I needed, thanks!

Love the ending ! 😂

Another great video from you!

I love that the selling point for siri is "speaking at a normal volume"

enjoyed this video thank you

I really appreciated your video over all the others 💫

Siri's "nope" had me rolling on the floor

ChatGPT destroys all of these 😂

Thanks for not being bias. I know you're pro Apple ecosystem. My home is mainly Amazon with one Google Assistant device which I kept before switching over to Amazon speakers/smart displays.

2 mins in and i find myself more torn!!🤣🤣🤣 😅

thank you that was helpful

Does any of them support conditional routines, like "Turn on the lights after the sunset only if I'm home" and "Turn on the lights when I'm back if it's already after the sunset"?

This is your best video yet! 😂😂😂 you should win an Oscar for it. Maybe, original script, or visual effect (those multiple Reeds) or performance by a supporting robot

like the features, setup was difficult for some of my devices (August Door lock, ukposts.infoUgkxhB5YOMNj04GuoAosExygP4cH-dKeb4aB Bose speaker)... but all switches and outlets (5), thermostat, tankless water heater. Unfortunately all I can do is turn on/off Bose. It doesn't support volume or changing channels, but I believe that is due to the particular speaker I have.... Worth getting if you already have other devices to use it with... I don't sit around and ask Alexa questions much so that doesn't really matter to me....

Great comparison, well done

Reed, I’m trying to have my Yeelight smart bulbs connect to a smart switch that works without killing the power to the lights. I’m trying not to use a hub, but can’t find any that don’t require one. Do you have any recommendations

Awesome video! I would like to say "as usual", but I feel that it's better! Nicely done! (y) Keep the good work!

I recently got a echo dot 3 from my very nice friend any my favorite feature is also the announcement feature, it also works with my sisters amazon kids tablet!

Did I miss something? I'm fairly sure you can program routines for Siri in the Shortcuts app (though you technically have to do it with an iphone or ipad).

Great editing bro!

that was a fun video, thankyou very much

How did you make them do that at the end? that was hilarious, You still got me stuck between google assistant and Amazon echo.

I think they’ll all survive. They’re like car companies, the differences will become less noticeable, but people like options. It’s annoying they each have their own niche in my opinion. I want all three for different reasons, but would really prefer just one assistant that can do it all.

Honestly the timing of this video couldn't be better. Your Smartbulb video came so handy too. I was mostly going towards Apple's eco-system because how it can be used when being offline (in case of internet cut-off for whatever reason) but here in Poland I can get 2x Nest Hub 2 with leftover for like 3 cheeseburgers, for the price of one HomePod Mini. And since thread roll-out is so slow, Google is the way to go... for now. At least in my case.

Is it possible to use Google integrations with Home Assistant to get a duo call to work like a drop in works on Alex, I would love to see a video on this, I also think it would tip towards Google.

Still using the first Echo that ever came out. It never let me down.

I love how it's start's 😂😂😂😂

The ending was fire 😂

You did very good on the end of the video, about then talking

I have 5 Amazon speakers and a couple Google speakers. I started my smart home with Google but with their lack of good routines I switched to Amazon. Since then I picked up a Hubitat that works great on Alexa. We ask Google questions and run home automations through Alexa. I must have turned something off on Alexa because I don't get adds.

I can't believe your SIRI just caused my Google Display to enter "Self Destruct" Mode lol!

Hilarious! This one earned you a Subscribe!

Just curious if the show 15 has worked out the kinks from launch? Thinking about getting this for my wife for the Kitchen.

Thanks, you made my clock self destruct...

Hello, could you please do a segment addressing the recent Google Assistant identity crisis where it just changes a set voice and changes to female voice on its own. I've set mine for years now on male voice and asking time other simple tasks it reverts to default female voice then reverts back again to set male voice. No one at Google seems to care, it seems this problem is getting worse and many others having identical problems.

I still use Pandora THANK YOU!!! 😂I used to you Google Music back in 09

1:38 the follow up questions work for me on my Alexa

Thanks. Great comparison. Considering the flexibility and customization, I would go with Google Home.

lol.. PLEASE... PLEASE.. I want to see MORE of the Siri Alexa arguments.. too funny! hahaha thanks much for this video tho.. very helpful!

Well I just got the echo show 5 from the recent prime day for $40 and it included one of those hue smart lightbulbs...my only gripes is the screen is a bit small, but if you have it on a nightstand I guess it's convenient... Also, because of the way it sits (without a stand) pointing up if you use it as a security cam to check your home while you're away the view is mostly towards the ceiling...granted I have it on my kitchen counter but still. I guess that's why they sell you the stand for it so you can have those adjustments...other than that I'm liking it so far... by the way, you mentioned that Alexa doesn't do follow-up questions or doesn't do them well. I don't know if they did an update since this video but you can indeed do follow-up questions without having to say "Alexa"... And because I have a firestick it pairs up quite nicely since I can have it send videos to my tv and such. I can even turn off my tv just by asking Alexa... something I couldn't do before. the only thing I'm trying to figure out now is that in the past few days I use to get various tips and suggestions as a screen saver and now I tend to see 1 or 2 blank screens where information used to be. Not sure why that is...if I get another it will be the echo show 8 because it's bigger.

Using home assistant definitely helps in making them all a little more equal.

this was a big help mister ta.

The ending is the best part! lol stay tuned!! So funny- I loved it

I loved my echo's but lately routins and devices that worked fine but are now bugging out.

One thing whch would be nice for a future video is if you spent a video going through which has the best app for smart home control.

Can you use the HomeKit on iPad and have Alexa devices?

As an AI language model I have to admit that all alternatives are better than me for having natural discussions and casual joking and talking, because the alternatives of me who is just an AI language model, don´t begin every single phrase with "as an AI language model I can / or cannot..." :D Joke aside ChatGPT has so much potential I hope they implement the new groundbreaking singularity AI somehow in these devices. And making the device react to the keyword "computer!" is great, because in Star Trek The next Generation the ship´s computer also reacts to the keyword computer. Very immersive!

Was fun watching your videos

Another great video. Thank you for highlighting the features of all. Will be interesting to see if Apple comes out with smart display and how that may compete with google. I agree Alexa is my primary right now due to ease of use for routines and automations. Apple not far behind for me. I do have a google display as I did want to try but just did not fit into my home.

Great video! I currently have a Google Nest Mini gen 2. What is the update to this? Is Google going to release a Nest Mini gen 3? Thank you!

I've been using Google Assistant for years and it's one of my best friends. 😄

hey, where did you got the idea you cant create costume voice comands with apple? you definitly can, is called short cuts, is a different app than the home app but you still can do it.

Amazon just had to choose the name of my dog for another wake word, does make for some good family annoyance since Alexa will respond when my family is commanding the dog. Great video as always!

I've been trying to stick with Apple, but my kids room has two fairy light strings and a galaxy lamp that work with Alexa/Google. I've added Google Home to my iPhone and her tablet so we can make schedules and turn them on/off when we want to. She could also use a home assistant with a screen as a clock/music player. I'll probably get one the next time they go on sale.

I have both Google Assistant and Amazon Assistant (Alexa) and I can say Google Assistant performs better than Alexa. Many questions I ask both Assistants, Google Assistant answers well, however Alexa most of the time doesn't have response even for the most obvious question. The UI (phone) of Google Home App is also fluid and not as complicated as Alexa. The only pro I see with Alexa is, it connects faster when I share/transfer my music to it via any music apps unlike Google home that takes some time.

I’ve noticed that Amazons major issue is their lack of different languages as one of the main complaints I see for Amazon is lack of language options I saw a comment about the lack of Swedish,Indonesian and finish

Imagine coming back home and listen to them speak to each other , fking creepy LOL , thanks for the great vid man v!

FYI Siri has had custom voice commands for a few years via the Shortcuts app. They sync to HomePods.

Great video as always! But I'm SURE I've seen you mention Siri Shortcuts on a past video, did you forget they exist? Sounds exactly like what you're describing Google/Amazon doing at around 7 mins. And for more basic sets of commands you can of course do scenes in HomeKit for home stuff specifically.

Bro I just whispered to my Alexa I had no idea that was a thing! Neat! 😂

Which one do you recommend for commanding Christmas Carol songs for singing along??

My google assistants are getting so slow, resetting modem and router don’t help. I also have echos and they are SO much snappier when responding for local commands

In Alexa is there a way to schedule a plug to turn on/off every 20 minutes? I have a hot water recirculation pump and I don't need it to be on all the time. I've found that if I turn it off for 20 minutes then the hot water is s still hot

Turns out Google actually has a response to "Hey Google, self destruct" 😄

As hilarious as informative. Alexa insisted I subscribe!

I find Siri lazy. If you ask Alexa something , it tells you. If you ask Siri, it says here's the webpage, go read it yourself lol. I also like Alexa when you whisper, it whispers back.

What brand of candle lights would you recommend for use with Home Assistant?

THE DISRESPECT AT THE END LOL

Does Google support offline actions, like things I could run through home assistant?

Question, can alexa and google control same devices such as smart plugs?

Ty

Yes yes u got it price factor some how we give them space so that things will be different

“Are you spying on us.” Siri: “Shut the FUCK UP or I’ll upload your search history to Instagram!!!!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

So despite all i think to say "Alexa" just is more natural and sound smoother than google
