4.1. Wearing the Earphones

The HTC NE38 earphones feature an OWS (Open-Wearable Stereo) ear hook design with flexible liquid silicone ear hooks for a comfortable and secure fit. The semi-in-ear structure extends the sound channel for clearer sound without fully sealing the ear canal, reducing ear fatigue.

4.2. AI Real-Time Translation

The HTC NE38 earphones offer AI real-time translation, capable of translating up to 135 languages. This feature is accessed and managed through the Saymi app.

  • Two-Way Simultaneous Interpretation: The core technology enables face-to-face communication with foreign speakers. Each person wears a headset, and the app facilitates real-time translation, allowing you to hear the spoken translation in your native language.
  • Privacy Protection: Translations are sent directly to the user's earbuds, ensuring privacy and preventing eavesdropping. Directional audio technology further enhances privacy by effectively delivering sound into your ear.
  • Operate Without Clicking: Once set up, the earbuds automatically translate without requiring constant interaction with your phone or the earbuds themselves, providing seamless communication.

Please refer to the Saymi app for personalized control settings.

5. Care and Maintenance

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the earphones and charging case with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.
  • Storage: When not in use, always store the earphones in their charging case to protect them from dust, damage, and to keep them charged.
  • Water Resistance: The earphones have an IPX5 waterproof rating, meaning they are resistant to sustained low-pressure water jet spray. They are not designed for submersion in water. Avoid exposing them to heavy rain, swimming, or showering. Ensure the charging port is dry before charging.

  • AI Translation not working:
    • Verify that the Saymi app is installed, updated, and you are logged in.
    • Ensure the earphones are properly connected to the Saymi app.
    • Check your internet connection, as translation features often require online access.
    • Confirm the correct languages are selected in the app for translation.
  • Poor sound quality:
    • Ensure the earphones are clean and free of debris.
    • Check the audio source and its volume level.
    • Move closer to your connected device to avoid interference.
