Translator earbuds

Here's a question, would you purchase two sets, one for her and one for you?

I feel like it would not add much to the interaction if you could understand her but not the other way around.

The hardest part IMHO is the production skills: speaking and writing, but especially speaking. (Pic related)

@ronjax funny you should ask- they actually have some where each of you wear one and translates real time. Toying with the idea of reviewing a pair on my upcoming trip as a chica you know :) converses pretty quickly. I will however continue to practice mi espanol and utilize ChatGPT to bone up on specific scenarios

I've heard good things about these devices from a friend who owns a GC business and deals with many Spanish speakers.

I'd be particularly curious how it navigates explicit language. @PutaTester reported in a recent review that it didn't repeat words like "fuck" or "blowjob".

So it might be limited as far as an arriba is concerned, but I suspect it's great for hanging out over dinner or a ficha.

Dude, I think you should try it out and report back!

The newer Galaxy buds have the translate capability. I bought a pair recently (Buds 2 Pro), coincidentally. Haven't looked into it.

@ronjax challenge accepted lol and as far as the dirty words go I’m good lol it’s just all the other stuff and conjugation of verbs I sometimes get tripped up on

Whoa this is a cool idea. I think even if one has to type on the Google translator machine while the other listens, it still would be more productive that typing back and forth.

It seems like the automatic feedback translation could help Ron turn into the big T-Rex as well hearing the Spanish then immediately the English translation is heard. Learning would seem faster that way.

@59 - that is cool if the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro have that because just checked and I happen to have a pair I use at the gym...lol. I'm definitely going to look into them.

@Zbott - (Dumb and Dumber moment) On our next trip, we could try it on each other speaking English to each other... Hahaha

Now after reading this, it makes me start thinking about the mechanism to how this could work. I'm guessing the translation software would still need to be run on the phone. I would think they are using the ear phone mics and speakers instead of the phone like the voice translate on Google translate. With that said, I'm wondering if it could work with Air Pods as well if inputs and outputs could be set at the software level like on Google Translate. Definitely going to check it out in the morning.
