So far it’s good .we still can’t figure out the calls and the media and group but I think that when we can figure that out I’ll give it a 5 star rating
I’ve found the translation to be very accurate, which makes a big difference when trying to communicate with someone who speaks a different language. During conversations there can be quite a bit of lag while it processes the translation, which can make the flow of the conversation a little slow at times. However, without these earbuds I wouldn’t be able to understand the other person at all, so I really appreciate having them. One feature I especially like is the written translation in the app—it’s very helpful to see the words displayed clearly. Overall, they’ve been a useful tool for communication despite the occasional delay
The best thing since sliced bread, once you have used it
The earbuds has made my communication with my Vietnamese friend so smooth
Die W4 Pro Kopfhörer dieser Qualität sind im Alltag sehr nützlich. Ich nutze sie oft bei der Arbeit und in privaten Meetings. Sie eignen sich hervorragend zum Ansehen von Nachrichten aus anderen Ländern. Ich kann sie nur empfehlen!
In my case, they work very well. My partner and I speak different languages. And these headphones allow us to communicate reliably. I'm super satisfied. Thank you.
I used it in a loud restaurant speaking with a friend who spoke Spanish. I spoke English. It worked pretty much as advertised. There are 2 settings. One for conference which translates a little slower but supposedly better accuracy. I set mine for the social setting which is faster translation but allegedly less accuracy but still worked perfectly. My friend was from Argentina and was amazed at how well it work. Once you get use to the brief lag time (1-2 sec.) to let the ear piece translate it is like having a natural conversation without the need of a live person translator. The waiter for our table was amazed at how we were conversing in different languages. Excellent buy and well worth the money. Anyone traveling abroad should get this tool.
I work in a warehouse setting with people from many countries. These earbuds translate accurately several different languages. They are amazingly easy to use and last several hours. I recommend them 100%!
Works well, but with more people, microphone of phone needs to be facing slightly towards the person to catch words. 1:1 conversations is perfect -and even if another language is spoken outside of selected languages, it will detect and translate it into selected languages.
The w4 are exactly what I needed and w4 has features that I will definitely use.
Hello Timekettle Team,
I have been using the Timekettle W4 Pro for a while and would like to share my overall experience and feedback.
First of all, I would like to say that the hardware quality, real-time translation speed, earphone comfort, and application interface are all very well designed. I am especially satisfied with the online translation performance in one-on-one conversations, and the product is genuinely useful in daily use.
However, I would like to point out a significant limitation regarding offline language packs, which is very important for me and many other users. The absence of Turkish in the offline language packs greatly limits usability in situations where internet access is limited or unavailable.
In particular, adding the following language combinations as offline packages would significantly increase the product’s value and usability:
Turkish – English
Turkish – German
Turkish – Arabic
In addition, I actively use the device when communicating with Syrian Arabic-speaking customers in my daily work. In these situations, I have noticed that translations based on Modern Standard Arabic are sometimes insufficient, leading to loss of meaning in real conversations spoken in Syrian Arabic (Levant dialect).
For this reason:
Supporting Syrian Arabic (Levant dialect), or
At least improving Arabic translations with dialect-level optimization
would greatly enhance real-world usage performance. Considering how widely this dialect is spoken in Turkey, Europe, and the Middle East, such support would make the Timekettle W4 Pro a much stronger and more competitive product in these markets.
In summary, I genuinely like the core features, translation quality, and design of the product. Improvements in offline language support and Arabic dialect handling would complete the user experience and make the W4 Pro nearly perfect for my needs.
I would also be happy to test any future updates related to these languages or dialects and provide real-world user feedback if needed.
Thank you for taking the time to consider my feedback, and I wish you continued success in your work.
Kind regards,
[Ömer Faruk Berk]
It would be great if there was an option to automatically detect the language when the other person is speaking. Also, in listening mode, it would be nice if the microphone weren't the phone, but rather a separate microphone connected to it. Since it's impossible to place a phone on the speaker's desk during a conference, the product isn't bad.
While the W4 is great, for listening to the conversations at the dinner table and for proper meaningful conversations one to one, the Pro version now allows me to understand multimedia, awesome for reels on WeChat for example and other postings by friends
I’m sure the product will only get better
I'm extremely happy with the blind box. It's definitely like Christmas you never know what you are going to get. It also makes a great gift for a friend or family to try out the translator. I gave mine to my mother so she can watch her Chinese dramas.
Incredibly accurate for Spanish to English
Great product. The clarity is great. The W4's pairing is great. The translation is great.
This little handheld is super easy to use and provides good translations of audio or text. Snap a picture of a page of text and the translation appears in seconds.
The lanyard is very good to have if you are walking a lot during your travel. The translator itself is sleek and could slip from your hands if you're not careful.
I highly recommend you at least attach it to your device and remember my kind advice .
I've only been using the W4 pro recently and it is a really wonderful product. I'm able to watch my Korean dramas that don't have English captions. I'm still learning how to take full advantage of the W4, they seem to be fairly accurate but sometimes a little slow on the translation during shows. I will definitely be using these more on my trip to Korea in the spring. I'll be able to have a much in depth experience there.
Response time is excellent.
Accuracy, I can only speak for the English component and it's very good. The Audio quality is also clear and easy to understand
The unit is comfortable in hand although the press to talk buttons are bit close together, but manageable.
I haven't had the opportunity to use outside of the house. I trust that the data will work nicely
I like the unit and I would happily recommend it.
Good earbuds overall. I enjoy listening to musics or using noice cancelling feature when studying. It also has normal and transparency mode, very basic. The translation feature, you really need a quiet space and 2 people have to attempt to speak their language clearly or else the earbuds will get quite a lot mistakes in capturing what you say. Translation is great, no problem with that.
I used it for English to Russian translation of a religious seminar. I mainly purchased it for it's offline translation capabilities. Unfortunatelly, it did not produce any meaningful results. The online translation worked quite acceptable most of the time, though sometimes the translation went a bit weird. The device stopped without visible reason from time to time. At any rate it did the job most of the time and helped to understand the lectures.
We’ve used it off line English/ Russian with great
success. 👍
Ich habe den Timekettle ausprobiert und bin begeistert. Die Übersetzungen sind schnell und ziemlich präzise – ideal für Reisen oder Gespräche mit internationalen Gästen. Die Bedienung ist einfach, die Verbindung stabil, und das Gerät macht genau das, was es verspricht. Klare Empfehlung für alle, die oft mit verschiedenen Sprachen zu tun haben!
