Apple Releases New iPhone 6 Ad: 'Voice Text'
Just a couple days after releasing the fifth and sixth iPhone 6 ads starring Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake, Apple has released a seventh called "Voice Text". The new ad focuses on one of the new features introduced to iMessage in iOS 8, the ability to instantly send audio messages quickly and easily.
The ad humorously highlights how voice messages can be used to better communication with friends, with examples pointing out how voice messages are good for sarcastic comments, singing and saying hard-to-spell words instead of typing them.
Apple, so far, has released two new iPhone 6 ads at a time, releasing "Duo" and "Health" during the iPhone 6 event in September, "Huge" and "Cameras" in late September and "Reservations" and "Gamers" a couple days ago. "Voice Text" marks the first time Apple has released an iPhone 6 ad by itself.

If only there was some kind of way to communicate with people using our voices, in a conversation of sorts, using these devices.
Missing the point here, it is integrated seamlessly into iMessage, in the Messages app, quick voice clips you can just send, very nifty and neat, not a gigantic must must have feature, but it is nice
not me!
