TL;DR: Make international travel easier with the ONE Mini Pocket Multilingual Assistant for $50, a 49% savings. 


Big, expensive gifts like TVs and gaming consoles typically steal the thunder during the holiday season but all those big, fancy electronics just shroud the wonder of Christmas’s most underrated and exciting utility: The stocking. Stocking stuffers may not be the most head-turning gifts under the tree (or hanging on the mantlepiece) but they are often the most practical. Sometimes, however, they’re the best of both worlds.

Meet the ONE Mini Pocket Multilingual Assistant. This clever piece of tech will make the perfect stocking stuffer for the world traveler in your family. At just four inches long, it fits effortlessly in your pocket and, at the push of a button, can record and translate 12 languages in real-time. (Want more info about translation devices?

Say your friend is going on her honeymoon to Greece but she doesn’t speak a word of Greek. With the ONE, she can walk into a bar, hold down the button, say in English, “I would like your finest red wine, please, but I don’t like Merlot and I am privy to Cabernets.” And the ONE will record, transcribe, and relay your question to the bartender in Greek. It’s like having a personal translator everywhere she goes. If she’s ever in a jam, ONE even offers 24/7 live interpreter service in any instance when the ONE’s AI algorithm fails.

Check it out in action: 

Normally $99, the ONE Mini Pocket Multilingual Assistant is on sale for 40% off at just $59. Plus, when you use code MERRYSAVE15 at checkout, you can take that price down to $50. The ONE is available in black, silver, green, or red, so there’s a color for any traveler on your list.
