If you’re the sort who’s got wanderlust running through your veins, you’ll want to clap your eyes on the Pocketalk (£259). A two-way voice translator that can recognise and translate 74 languages, the Pocketalk makes interlingual communication (and travelling the globe) an absolute breeze. The bitesized communicator combines the best speech-to-text, translation, and text-to-speech engines from around the world, and uses Wi-Fi, mobile data, or a personal hotspot to connect to the internet and provide the most accurate translations possible with the push of a button. It even comes with dedicated dual noise-cancelling microphones to make sure it can pick up every work in noisy environments like restaurants and airports. Gotta make sure you nail those food orders!

About

I’m a freelance games and technology journalist currently mashing my keyboard in the name of fine institutions like Stuff, where you'll usually find me waxing lyrical about the latest mobile morsels. I've also been known to cook up some decidedly delicious reviews from time to time, and was once dubbed 'the games industry's answer to Nigella Lawson' by someone probably somewhere.
