While everyone seems to think that Apple has the market cornered on voice recognition, Windows Phone has a few tricks up it’s sleeve in this department too.
One of my favorite things to do is hold down the menu button, this will open up a voice command that can control the whole phone. By simply saying “open Hotmail” Hotmail will open up. This works with any program on the phone, even the apps that you download from the Market Place.
You can also state call or text someone, than speak your text aloud and it will compose it for you. Below is a demo of the text feature in action, not only on outgoing text but for incoming as well.
I have used this feature many times myself and it’s pretty handy when you need to send a quick text reply but you need to really concentrate on another task at hand.
