The biggest highlight of iPhone 4S is the intelligent voice assistant Siri. If you can install and run Siri on iPhone 4, will you upgrade it to iPhone 4S? Don't think this is impossible. The famous Apple technology blog 9to5Mac and developer Steven Troughton-Smith completed the work of porting Siri voice control system to iPhone 4.
We can see from the videoSiri running on iPhone 4 is very slow, and other applications running on iPhone 4 are also slowed down. However, it is still able to barely implement the speech recognition and answer functions.9to5Mac indicates that Apple Server does not authorize Siri to the iPhone 4 hardware, in addition, it lacks a special GPU Driver (but 9to5Mac does not find this driver in the binary cache where Siri files are placed in iPhone 4S ).
The transplantation of 9to5Mac and Steven proves that there is no technical problem in running Siri on iPhone 4. Apple makes Siri only run on iPhone 4S by taking two factors into account: 1. Running Speed and user experience; 2. iPhone 4S sales.
However, 9to5Mac also said that they will continue to work with Steven to improve the porting work, hoping that Siri will run perfectly on iPhone 4. So should friends who have iPhone 4 now wait for the upgrade to iPhone 4S?
Let's take a look at the video:
