With the news thatApple sold over 1 million iPhone 4S units in just 24 hoursstill fresh in people’s minds, the first hands-on video with Apple’s new smartphone has hit the Internet, demonstrating browser benchmarks and giving us the first look at Apple’s new Siri technology and the options it provides on the device.
Macrumors shared the video, which was originally posted to Chinese forumAppVV.com, showing Siri menu toggles that include the language settings, voice feedback and how to initialise the voice-input via Raise to Speak. It’s interesting to note that it allows you choose to activate Siri by holding down the home button or by raising your handset to your ear.
