InnAIO AI Translator T10 Review: Feature-Loaded but Needs Work

The T10 also includes a voice cloning feature similar to those offered by the Vasco Q1 and Google Pixel 10. With this feature, you recite a few example sentences, press the “clone” button, and within minutes you can have the T10 speak in a simulacrum of your own voice instead of its generic “male” or “female” tones. This system is much more impressive than Vasco’s, in my testing, with my cloned voice sounding eerily like mine, just with a rich Spanish, Russian, or Tamil accent applied. Note that by default, the app can only store one cloned voice at a time.

The 60 mAh battery charges via USB-C and promises 15 hours of continuous use and 100 days of standby time. This is difficult to test thoroughly, as the device automatically turns off after just a few minutes of non-use. Despite many hours of testing over several days, the in-app battery indicator never deviated from 100% charge.

The subscription push

The T10 is a capable, if complex, translation system, and I’d be more enamored with it if it weren’t for the fact that it only includes 180 days of service before you’re forced to upgrade to one of two subscription plans. For $14 per month or $100 per year, you receive 600 minutes of service per month on many of its real-time features. For $25 per month or $179 per year, this upgrades to unlimited service (and adds a second voice cloning slot). Without a subscription, users only get 120 minutes of real-time translations per month and completely lose call translation and AI Mind Map features. Multi-app translation functionality, face-to-face mode and text/photo translations are free in all modes.

Another major issue I encountered with the T10 is the difficulty of the InnAIO Pro app. The poorly translated interface is particularly troubling, not only because much of it is in pidgin English, but because some of it is not translated at all. For example, if you record a recording of a real-time translation session, the identities of the two languages ​​used in the recording appear in Chinese.

The T10 has a fresh approach and unique features that you won’t find in competing gear or on a phone app, but right now it’s all too hit and miss and undercooked to be fully recommended. The push for a very expensive subscription after such a short period of free access makes this calculation even more difficult.
