El traductor de Microsoft llega a Android, y con soporte para Android Wear

Posted on by

Microsoft Translator Android

Microsoft sigue empeñada en inundar nuestros dispositivos Android con su software y ampliar fronteras más allá de su sistema operativo, Windows. Así, ya tenemos más de una decena de apps de los de Redmond en Google Play, y hoy ha desembarcado una más. Se trata de su propio traductor, de nombre Microsoft Translator —¡qué originalidad!–, que se puede utilizar en dispositivos con Android 4.3 Jelly Bean, y también en dispositivos con Android Wear, por lo que podremos llevarlo con nosotros a cualquier parte en nuestro reloj inteligente.

Entre las principales características de Microsoft Translator, se encuentra la de poder hacer traducciones simultáneas por voz, y es capaz de reconocer 50 idiomas distintos, incluyendo, por supuesto, el español, así como lenguas mundialmente menos extendidas. Por supuesto, al traducir algo, podremos escuchar la pronunciación correcta, aunque esto lo podemos activar o desactivar en los ajustes de la aplicación.

Además, podemos guardar como favoritas las traducciones que queramos, para acceder rápidamente a ellas mediante el icono de la chincheta siempre que lo necesitemos. También tenemos otro icono con el que accederemos a nuestro historial de traducciones, ordenadas cronológicamente desde la más reciente.

Su interfaz es de lo más simple y limpia, por lo que su uso también es bien sencillo, y es que solo con pulsar el botón de micrófono ya podremos decirle a nuestro dispositivo lo que queramos traducir, o bien, si lo preferimos, podemos escribirlo, pulsando el botón de teclado, que acto seguido se desplegará.

Descargar Microsoft Translator

A continuación, os dejamos el enlace de descarga a Google Play, en donde se encuentra disponible de forma gratuita, y también os proporcionamos el enlace para descargar el APK e instalarlo manualmente, por si os marca vuestro dispositivo como no compatible –como ha sido el caso del Motorola Moto G 2013 con Android 5.0.2 Lollipop en el que lo hemos probado.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 may be outed alongside MIUI 7 on August 13

Posted on by

Xiaomi is set to take the wraps off the next iteration of its mobile operating system based on Android on August 13. But at that event we apparently might see a new smartphone being announced alongside MIUI 7.

New rumors are popping up in China saying that the long-awaited Redmi Note 2 will finally become official on that occasion. Furthermore, a leading Chinese online retailer has mentioned August 16 as the possible date on which pre-orders for the new handset are due to start.

And finally, we have the image above. This is purported to be an internal screengrab from Xiaomi’s online store, showing the price of the 32GB version of the upcoming Redmi Note 2 as CNY 799. That’s about $128 or €117 at the current exchange rates.

But there’s surely going to be an even cheaper model with 16GB of storage. And speculation has it that this will be offered for just CNY 699 ($112, €103). That price point would make it a tough competitor for Meizu’s recently unveiled m2 note.

As for specs, past mumblings spoke about the Redmi Note 2 sporting a 5.5-inch 1080p touchscreen, a 13 MP rear camera, a 5 MP selfie cam, 2GB of RAM, and a 3,020 mAh battery. It could be powered by MediaTek’s MT6795 SoC with a 2 GHz octa-core CPU.
