Jarvisen

Still 3rd place as in the previous edition - which is both good and… less good. Jarvisen remains a solid and safe choice especially for those working within healthcare, IT, legal and financial industries, but.. it has not improved much from last year, while the competitors have taken more courageous steps forward.

Battery life is significant, lasting up to 17 days in standby mode (meaning no translations, so what’s the point?). While on and connected to the Internet, it lasts 6-10 days depending on the connection type. The producer claims high translation accuracy, which might be hard to achieve in reality as the device relies only on 1 translation engine for any language pair.

Like most of the devices listed here, it also comes with a SIM card, and the free Internet trial lasts for two years. Then, in order to be able to continue using the translator, the user needs to renew the data package (prices ranging from 49.99$ to 139$). Jarvisen works in the most “popular” or traveled to countries in the world, so should be enough for an average vacationer looking for a communication aid while abroad.
