Timekettle: AI translator earbuds and offline translators for travel

Shopping at Timekettle? See all current Timekettle discount codes and deals, checked regularly.

Timekettle is a Shenzhen technology company that has been making translation devices since 2016, starting with the WT2 Plus earbuds on Kickstarter in 2017. Today its range covers AI interpreter earbuds, a handheld translator that works offline and a hub for multilingual meetings, and it runs a UK online store with prices in pounds.

It suits travellers who want to talk to people abroad without passing a phone back and forth, families with relatives who speak another language, and businesses that deal with overseas clients. Most products pair with the Timekettle app, and several can download offline language packs so they keep working without a signal.

What's worth a look

Here are six devices from the current UK range, from travel earbuds to business translators.

For holidays, the M3 Language Translator Earbuds are the cheapest way in: they translate across 43 languages, include 13 offline language packs and also work as everyday earbuds for music and calls. If you want something that doesn't rely on a connection at all, the T1 handheld translator advertises 44 offline language packs and 24 months of free data. For work, the W4 Pro adds translation for phone calls and online meetings.

The two newest launches are the W4 Plus, which arrived in September 2026 as a pocket AI interpreter, and the LiveTalk earbuds from October 2026, pitched as all-day earbuds with smart translation built in. Their UK prices weren't showing when we checked, so look on the product pages for the latest. Every device comes with a 12-month warranty, and support is by email or phone.

How to save more

• Most of the range costs more than the £94.20 free delivery threshold, so pick standard delivery and save the £12.81. Orders ship from Hong Kong and take 8 to 12 business days, so allow time before a trip.
• Use the product comparison page before you buy. The cheaper M3 may be all you need for holidays, while the W4 range and X1 are aimed at business use.
• If you're buying for a company, school or church, look at the business trial and education and business pages before paying retail for several devices.
