So after the usual couple hours after installation where Siri's voice sound more robotic than usual, the new Siri voices have finally kicked in, and I have to say they sound amazing. Both the male and female voices sound very realistic and I found myself asking Siri random questions for 10 minutes just to hear the responses.
 
It's a step up. It's still obviously a computer talking.

The male voice actually pronounces everything more clearly than the female voice.
 
American English Siri sounds fantastic.. I tried switching to other languages just for ***** and giggles.. They all sounded like crap..
 
Better is subjective.. Siri is far more iconic though.. So much so that apples competitors feel compelled to use her in advertising :/

Siri's voice is almost instantly recognizable by anyone..
