There is a real battle of giants going on in the world of smart speakers.
Google, Amazon and Yandex have done everything to their voice assistants become part of your daily life. But who does this role better?
Today, let's compare the three leaders — Alice, Google Assistant and Alexa — and find out why more and more users in Europe are choosing Alice.

Conversational Intelligence: Who sounds like a Human being
Google Assistant and Alexa are masters of facts. They ideally search for information, turn on timers, tell the weather and control devices.
But at the same time they remain “robots” — cold, predictable and a little boring.
Alice is different. She doesn't just answer, she talks.
Her answers are full of emotion, humor, and context.
Ask:
"Alice, how are you feeling?"
- "Excellent! What about you?"
It's not just AI. This is the interlocutor.
This is what makes Alice closer and more interesting to the user, especially in Russian-speaking families in Europe.

Smart home and convenience
All three systems can control a smart home. But there is a difference.
Alexa and Google Assistant require connectivity to their brand ecosystems and often don't work without a VPN or regional settings.
Alice, on the contrary, adapts to any region, especially after professional adjustment through
It controls the lights, the TV, the air conditioner, the sockets, and even the coffee machines. All by voice.
“Alice, turn on the morning” — and the house comes alive.

Sound and entertainment
Google and Alexa are traditionally strong in streaming services like Spotify, YouTube Music or Amazon Music.
Alice focuses on Yandex Music, radio, and podcasts, but she also easily handles external Bluetooth connections.
Models like Yandex.
Max or Midi stations produce sound comparable to premium devices.
Ask: “Alice, turn on the atmosphere for the evening" — and you will feel that a smart speaker can be a real DJ.
?
Support and localization
Alexa and Google Assistant are global solutions. But this is precisely their weakness.
They don't “understand” the local habits, language, and humor.
Alice was created for Russian-speaking users in Europe. She knows the local services, knows how to search for what she needs in Yandex and adjusts to the accent.
If you live in Latvia, Estonia, Germany or the Czech Republic, Alice works fine after setting up.

Personality and character
Google and Alexa are rational assistants. Alice is emotional.
She can keep up a conversation, tell a joke, play a game, or even recommend a movie for the evening.
It's not just technology, it's character.
