For me it depended on the phone.
On my nexus 5 I couldn’t hear the maps navigator unless it was set to that one ‘black lady voice’. That way I could hear it in a moving car with air conditioning.
Then after that I was using a Stylo3 Plus for a few years and that phone didn’t have enough treble for the lady voice so I had to use the ‘guy who sounds like the pod from nAutomata’ because that was the only voice that had a lot of deepness to it.
Now I use a VELVET and it’s on aussie girl voice. Same reasoning again :) ‘to be able to hear it in a moving car’
Facetious and Modicum.
I remember them being heavily used everywhere by everyone like a fad, disappeared like a fad. I don’t miss them though
