                I'm currently on Android 6.0 on the P9 lite and it's worse (much worse) than Windows 8.1 on my old Lumia 925.

                          Cortana is the best assistant overall - no doubt, and others don't stand a chance.

                          MS is again ahead if its time. First the live tiles (which are now being copied in one form or another by iOS/Android), the simple, flat, white icons (which everyone now adopts), light/dark user interface (which everyone now adds to their OS), Glance Screen ("Always on screen" which Android copied just recently), flat, simple colors on the UI (called Material Design in Android) and so on...

                            AnonD-510098, 27 Mar 2017All assistants are useless 90% of the time...Google now on tap is 100 times better... Cause i can copy text easily

                              "Microsoft is announcing the launch of Cortana for both Android and iOS".

                              Cortana, meets your new friend in android. Here is Alexa, Bixby and Google Assistant. And here your only friend in ios, Siri. Have fun fighting with these b*tches. Show them what a real AI made of! Hahaha. Just kidding.

                                Nice, hopefully this will respond to my voice from the lockscreen because Google Now can't, or won't.
