Cortana's Disappointing Performance

[Lumia 8x]

I have first generation WP8 , HTC 8x. I know Cortana is still in beta but I have a feeling that the performance won't be any better when it goes beta free. It takes too long to launch it and it is a hit and miss when I try to play music by voice. Sometimes it's fast and accurate sometimes it takes forever and inaccurate.

You are still in developers preview running an 8.1 OS with 8.0 firmware.
Could this possibly be part of the problem?
What you see in performance is not the norm.

Cortana requires an internet connection. When the connection isn't a good one, Cortana tends to slow down and not give great results.

Not for everything... I posted in another thread that Cortana does have offline features. Like this-
