7 reasons Google’s Assistant stomps Siri

Google's new flagship Pixel and Pixel XL (read Mashable's review here) arrive on Thursday. They're pretty great phones if you can look past the snoozy designs and premium pricing. They're also the first and only phones with the Google Assistant, an intelligent digital assistant that's constantly learning about you and tries to anticipate your needs. Google CEO Sundar Pichai calls the Assistant "your own personal Google" and it's clear the company plans to make it the center all its devices. And though it's still very new and limited in what it can do, because it has access to infinite information from Google Search, it's already smarter than Siri or Cortana by a mile.
