iFlytek has launched its latest AI Translation Earbuds in China with a pre-sale price of 2,499 yuan ($352). The new earbuds feature an open ear-hook design and support real-time translation across calls, face-to-face conversations, and lectures. iFlytek has also integrated its AI assistant, which can summarize content and respond to questions directly on the device.
iFlytek AI Translation Earbuds Specifications
The earbuds use an air conduction speaker system paired with a bone conduction sensor. This setup captures voice inputs from both near-field and far-field environments. Each earbud includes a three-microphone array that filters background noise using iFlytek’s multi-sense fusion noise reduction system. The device aims to deliver clear voice pickup during meetings, calls, and in-person interactions.
The translation system uses iFlytek’s end-to-end AI simultaneous interpreting model and supports a vocabulary of more than 100,000 professional terms across sectors such as healthcare, finance, and manufacturing. According to the company, the Chinese-English interpretation engine has a delay of only two seconds for the first word and delivers translated voice output with over 90 percent voice fidelity.
Offline translation support will roll out in a system update planned for March 2026. The update will enable translation across 18 language pairs without requiring internet access. The earbuds can also record bilingual conversations, saving both the original and translated audio along with text transcriptions on the connected smartphone.
The AI assistant can summarize meeting notes, process article links, and generate voice podcasts in a two-person conversational style. These software features currently support Chinese and English.
Each earbud uses an 11 mm high-sensitivity driver supported by dynamic low-frequency compensation, which strengthens bass response typically lost in open-ear designs. The system includes DRC dynamic range control, which monitors sudden peaks and prevents the audio from clipping. This keeps loud passages stable and protects overall listening comfort. iFlytek uses skin-friendly materials and includes a silver-ion antibacterial coating for hygiene.
The earbuds use Bluetooth 6.0 to stay connected to two devices at the same time, such as a phone and a laptop. They deliver up to six hours of translation or twelve hours of music on a single charge, and the case increases total runtime to roughly forty-two hours. They also support fast charging, and a ten-minute top-up adds about three hours of playback. The earbuds carry an IP55 rating that protects them against sweat and light rain during everyday use.
