I bought a pocket translator in Shanghai last week.In last 2 weeks of travel. AI apps kept cutting out at the worst moments.No signal in certain areas with restricted access. So I picked up a standalone translator device.Lex Fridman went viral hitchhiking with Chinese truckers using AI on his phone as a translator.That works until it doesn't.If you are traveling to China, Japan, Korea, anywhere with a real language barrier, a pocket translator that works completely offline is the most underrated
