在星際爭霸戰的的奇特裝置中，

one of the least appreciated is the Universal Translator,

最不受喜愛的是這個萬能翻譯機，

它讓企業號星艦、聯邦星艦航海家號、以及企業號的機員，

or Voyager or Discovery, talk to pretty much anyone

So when I heard there was a real world version

所以當我聽到萬能翻譯機有真實版，名字叫 Travis，

called Travis, I jumped on it faster than you can say,

我接觸到 Travis 時已經有點太晚，

First of all, this is the second generation of the product

which sold over a hundred thousand units by the way.

但第一代也賣出了超過十萬個，

市面上類似的翻譯機不只這個，

I saw a competitor called Pocketalk at IFA 2018,

我在 2018 柏林國際廣播展有看到競爭對手 Pocketalk，

And I really can't go further without addressing the price.

If you don't get in on the early bird pricing,

you're gonna be paying about $250 for this thing.

就得付兩百五十美元、相當於八千元台幣才能買到，

On the one hand, that price seems justified.

with a comfortable soft touch coating and a rounded design

橢圓外層覆有蓋一層柔軟覆料，摸起來很舒服，

that makes holding it up to someone's mouth

Travis 翻譯機的觸控介面是用安卓系統，

You use one button to translate your words

you press the other button to translate the words

There's Bluetooth on board if you wanna use a headset,

如果你想用耳機，介面上也有藍芽選項，

沒耳機也沒關係，它的喇叭聲音很大，

if you don't with noise cancellation on the microphones.

我去柏林和斯德哥爾摩時有帶著它，

In short, it does what it says it's gonna do.

總之，它的功能跟我們預想的一樣，

不過你們應該知道另一個東西也有同樣功能，

那就是我們每個人的智慧型手機，

I mean, download Microsoft Translator or Google Translate,

我是說下載微軟或 Google 翻譯，

and you get many of the same features for free.

Also, this includes an ability Travis doesn't have.

有些甚至是 Travis 翻譯機沒有的，

You can take a picture of something and translate text.

你可以拍照，將文字給 Google 翻譯，

With Travis, my only option was trying to sound out

大聲唸牌子上的字，試著唸起來像瑞典語，

which went about as well as you might expect.

我問過 Travis 翻譯機的製造商：

and the company actually had a pretty good answer.

Google Translate only lets you talk in 41 languages,

Well, Travis can translate 105 languages,

而 Travis 翻譯機可以翻譯 105 種語言，

其中 8 種語言儲存在客戶機端，

使用其他語言都需要網路連線，

for which Travis uses either wifi or a 4G SIM card.

Travis uses 16 different translation engines too,

Travis 翻譯機也使用 16 種不同的翻譯引擎，

so the translation quality should be better

Man, if I had more conversations with native speakers

如果我在旅行中跟當地人有更多互動，

Travis is just built for a different kind of person.

Doing more talking, going to more distant destinations,

a customer who's willing to carry a separate device

if it means having a little more comfort on the go.

The device can also function as a 4G hotspot by the way.

另外 Travis 翻譯機也可當作 4G 熱點，

If you meet all those criteria, or for some reason,

或因為一些原因你沒有用智慧型手機，

you might wanna snag Travis at the early bird pricing

在早鳥優惠期間買到 Travis 翻譯機，

I'll drop a link in the description for your convenience.

我會在影片簡介留下連結，讓你方便搜尋，

And this is yet another video recorded on the road,

一如往常，我必須請你們見諒，

on the hotel room sound quality, and also as usual,

I'll ask you to subscribe to theMrMobile on YouTube

此外我也會跟以前一樣請求你在 Youtube 訂閱 theMrMobile，

so you don't miss the next video coming very soon.

這樣就不會錯過即將發布的下一支影片，
