It reportedly has the capability to translate languages in real-time during voice calls, video calls, and face-to-face. The feature is said to be better than language translation on Google's Pixel Buds as the former doesn't require an active internet connection.

Is it a feature of the Galaxy Buds or a feature of the Galaxy S24? They say this is better than the Pixel Buds because it doesn't require an internet connection, but the Pixel Buds do not have language translation at all. They're headphones you connect to a phone that has language translation, and it's the phone that needs internet to work. If it were a feature of the Galaxy Buds that would be much more impressive, but since the article doesn't say exactly, it's unlikely that the Galaxy Buds actually have real-time language translation at all and it's just phone software and marketing.

From the article:

Apparently, Samsung's next-generation Galaxy Buds will feature on-device AI

The on-device (mentioned a few areas) would lead me to believe it's the buds themselves, despite it being also on the phone.
