Vasco V4 Language Translator Device | 108 Languages | Free Lifetime Internet in Almost 200 Countries | Cobalt Blue

I'm using this for Japanese to English, and reverse....It does NOT need the internet ( via a smart phone or a network)..this is HUGE when you're someplace and can't get a network wireless signal. It's easy to use, and is fairly loud...which is great because I'm hearing impaired. It translates text and voice...and as far as my tests go, is VERY accurate and quick!! I can't wait to try it in Tokyo!!! I actually own an Enence, and it NEEDS internet via a smart phone to work....big drawback when using it in other countries!!

As someone who travels a lot for work being able to communicate locally is imperative. I used to purchase local sim cards then use apps for translation. Which was OK. But having to purchase the sim card could be challenging at times.Sure this device is not cheap. But to be able to have access to free lifetime data is what sold me. I now have immediate access to locals once I step off the plane. (In languages covered) which are plenty by the way, without having to source a sim card.The device itself is very nicely made. Touch screen is perfect. The only update that would be nice is to have every language spoken as well as visually on the screen. (There are only a few that arnt spoken).

I’ve used translation apps and having. Standalone device was a game changer.For the price I wish they would upgrade the chip so it would be instantaneous, but it was still plenty fast once it was working.I used it in numerous places and having someone speak directly into the device and not having to worry about handing an iPhone pro max back and forth in a developing nation alone is worth the purchase.It can translate long passages, and made it easy to hold conversations back responding to whole conversations. 3.8 stars is prolly fair, I’m giving it 4.*you need to restart it daily. Also did not use offline mode, once I was in a building without connection and I could not use it.

THESE ARE THE MOST TERRIBLE SOUNDING TRANSLATORS THAT I HAVE EVER HEARD. I HAVE HAD THESE FOR A WHILE NOW BUT I FORGOT UNTIL NOW, WHEN WRITING A FEW REVIEWS FOR PURCHASES I HAVE MADE ON AMAZON, THAT I STILL HAVE THESE AND THAT I NWVER COMPLAINED BEFORE THIS. I AM ACTUALLY QUITE AMAZED AND SHOCKED AND NOW REALLY CONFUSED AT THE MONENT AS I BUY SO MUCH FROM AMAZON AND I JUST CANNOT BELIEVE THAT AMAZON WOULD SELL ANYTHING LIKE THIS.AS I MENTIONED, I PURCHASED THESE A WHILE BACK AND I WILL ADMIT THAT MAKING A COMPLAINT THIS LATE IS MY OWN FAULT. UT AS I WILL DESCRIBE, THESE TRANSLATORS MADE ME SO SICK THAT I SIMPLY PUT THEM BACK IN THE BOX AND PUT THEM IN A CLOSET AND FORGOT ABOUT THEM. SO SORRY.THE ONLY REASON THAT I CAN THINK OF AT ATTEMPTING TO JUSTIFY MY LATENESS IS WHAT I AN ABOUT TO SAY. ALL THAT I CAN STILL THINK ABOUT, AFTER PUTTING THESE BACK IN THE BOX AND PUTTING THEM IN A CLOSET AS FAR AWAY FROM ME AS POSSIBLE.*** I HARDLY EVER COMPLAIN ABOUT ANYTHING AND IF I DO COMPLAIN, IT IS JUSTIFYABLE AND THIS IS DEFINITELY JUSTIFYABLE AND ALSON IS THE MOST DIFFICULT ONE THAT I HAVE EVER MADE. AS DIFFICULT AS IT IS, I TRULY BELIEVE THAT BY MAKING THIS COMPLAINT, ALTHOUGH LATE, I STILL BELIEVE THAT IT MAY HELP SOMEONE TO AVOID MAKING THE MISTAKE I MADE AND PAYING FOR SOMETHING LIKE THIS THAT IS ABSOLUTELY USELASS AND TERRIBLE AND TERRIFYING AND WORTHLESS.THESE ARE THE VERY WORST TRANSLATORS I HAVE EVER HEARD. AND BTW, I HAVE HEARD QUITE A FEW DIFFERENT ONES. FURTHERMORE AND TO END ALL OF THIS, AND TO BE ABSOLUTELY CLEAR ABOUT MY COMPLAINT, BUT ALSO TO ADD INJURY TO INSULT, THEY EVEN HAD A SPECIAL PROMOTION WHERE I RECEIVED 2 FOR THE PRICE OF 1.YOUWHAT A JOKE. SERIOUSLY THOUGH, THESE TRANSLATORS ARE THE MOST TERRIBLE I HAVE EVER HEARD THE DIFFERENCE IN THESE TRANSLATORS AND A GOOD QUALITY TRANSLATOR, THEY WOULD PROBABLY CRY, AS I ALMOST DID. SADLY AND HONESTLY, IT WAS MORE LIKE EITHER CRY OR VOMIT. JUST LET ME SAY THAT ALTHOUGH I CAME CLOSE TO CRYING, I DID. NOT. BUT I DID GET SICK.I APOLOGIZE FOR THE LENGTH OF THIS, BUT AS I SAID, HOPEFULLY THIS WILL KEEP ANYINE CONSIDERING ORDERING THESE TO PLEASE RECONSIDER. AT THE LEAST, PLEASE LISTEN TO SOME QUALITY ONES FIRST SUCH AS IFLYTWCH OR SIMILAR. I PROMISE THAT YOU WILL SIMPLY BE AMAZED AND NOT BE SORRY, AS I AM !!!!

Just recieved the translator for my trip to Europe. I think its functions pretty well. It can be used without Wifi or your iPhone. It used Mobile phone network and transltion speed could be slower than Wifi connection.After connecting to home wifi, this translator respond very quickly. It is good to be used in learning foreiggn language. more than enough language options for me to pick up. I like it instantly!!!

I like this product, and I want to support smaller companies; however, I had to return this due to its poor battery strength. With wifi turned off and without using the device, the battery lasts only 2 days. I reached out to Vasco, and they said without use and without wifi (which uses power), it lasts 3 to 4 days. Mine did not. When using it, the battery strength drops dramatically, much more than a phone, and I would not expect it to last more than a couple to maybe a few hours when in use. The potential advantage of this product over your phone is that you can access spoken translation without wifi in many parts of the world. Unfortunately, the poor battery life erases much of this advantage. Their customer service was responsive and they offered to replace it. (I chose to return it.)
