Apple’s AirPods Pro 3 feature Live Translation, entering a competitive market with Google and Meta, who are also developing real-time translation capabilities. AirPods Pro 3 will initially translate select languages into English (and vice versa), requiring a compatible iPhone with Apple Intelligence. Google’s Pixel 10 offers “Voice Translate,” preserving speaker inflections, while Meta integrates translation into Ray-Ban glasses. OpenAI is also exploring hardware. The advances pose a challenge to the translation industry. Dedicated translation device companies emphasize their linguistic expertise amidst growing competition.
