The Sogou E1 is a cloud-enabled voice recorder and translator with its own AI speech recognition engine. Equipped with two directional microphones, the device records the spoken word in hi-fi quality and then transcribes and translates the text in real time. The design of the E1 follows the strategy of the Sogou family. The screen size has been reduced, and various easily accessible function keys are found on the face of the device. Thanks to the arrangement of the microphones, the device is also very narrow and fits comfortably in the user’s hand.
