Tried this in-store and didn’t expect it to be this good

I randomly stopped by a Samsung store the other day and ended up testing the Galaxy S26 with Buds4.

Didn’t expect much, but the Live Translate feature actually surprised me.

They showed how it works during a conversation, and it felt way more natural than I thought. You just wear the Buds and hear the translation almost instantly — no need to stare at your phone or type anything. It didn’t feel laggy or robotic either.

I can реально see myself using this while traveling or even just in everyday situations. Like if someone doesn’t speak English well, this would make things so much easier.

From what I understood, the phone does the processing, and the Buds just deliver everything straight to your ears, so it’s pretty seamless.

Compared to regular translation apps, this just feels less awkward. You’re not interrupting the conversation all the time.

Honestly didn’t think I’d care about this feature, but now it’s probably my favorite from the whole S26 + Buds4 setup.

I actually got a demo at Galaxy Unpacked and also was surprised on how well it worked. Galaxy AI is no joke, it just keeps getting better and better with time.

Do I need mcafee or malwarebytes on a Samsung 12 fe or am I just wasting my money?
