A consumer electronics company has unveiled wireless earbuds capable of real-time language translation across 40 languages. The device uses on-board AI processing to deliver translations with less than a two-second delay during live conversations.

The earbuds support both a conversation mode, where two speakers alternate turns, and a lecture mode that provides continuous translation of a single speaker. Audio quality during translation has been praised in early hands-on reviews.

Priced at $299, the earbuds target frequent travelers and international business professionals, though the company plans to release a more affordable version later this year.
