A rival to the Galaxy Z Fold 7 offers superior on-device AI translation for phone calls compared to Google.

This foldable can translate your calls in real time even without being connected.
Honor states its new on-device large speech model is a first for the industry, occupying approximately 800MB of storage space on a device. This size is notably small for a model that supports six languages:
* Chinese
* English
* Spanish
* French
* German
* Italian
Honor indicates that translation occurs while someone is speaking, removing the need to finish a sentence before the AI provides a result. This "speak-as-you-go" design is intended to improve speed and precision.
According to Honor, the model's speed is 38% faster, and its accuracy is 16% higher, while using 75% less memory compared to prior systems. The company does not specify what it means by "older systems."
Honor's model is based on the open-source Whisper model, which has been refined to improve speech recognition, translation speed, and efficiency. Fei Fang, Honor's product president, stated in a CNET interview that the company created the model with Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
While real-time translation is potentially useful, the feature might not be suitable beyond basic situations for tourists. As someone living abroad and able to communicate in the local language, assistance is needed with complex parts of the Spanish dialect. Current AI tools have not been helpful, and this one might not be either, so Spanish classes remain the best option.
