That all said, this unit does not replace a full dictionary, which can provide more subtle shades of meaning. I own both, and find that each has its uses. However, I use the Franklin translator many times a day, while the more complete dictionary is used much less often. Typing on the keyboard is easy. from Amazon.com I am enjoing my Spanish-English Franklin translator. Because I am a College student, I have to read a lot, so that is when I use it. from Amazon.com The Franklin Speaking Spanish-English Dictionary that I purchased is a great product. I have recommended that co-workers purchase the item. from Amazon.com Despite several bad reviews, I purchased this product after losing my Franklin BES-1850. I started using Franklin English-Spanish dictionaries over ten years ago and they have proved to be very beneficial in learning Spanish. from Amazon.com Good luck using that. I wish I could give this thing zero stars, or negative, because it is of no practical use. Buy ANYTHING else, but stay away from Franklin. I'm a slow learner, since over the years I have bought several of their tools and have hated them all. from Amazon.com Voice is too low and not clear. 3. Letter keys are too small to push not even comparable to your Spanish-English dictionary BES-1890. Over all, this dictionary has an attractive appearance but it's impractical to use. from Amazon.com It is also "factory packaged" in a hard plastic sheel that one has to break into in order to try out the device. Some sellers will not accept returns if the package is opened. Sort of a "Catch 22." I had hoped that this (and other) Franklins would be better designed and user-tested. Pretty sad. from Amazon.com I believe it is an excellent value for the price. The phrases are also useful in clarifying content. There are several games that are very useful for anyone trying to use the BES-1890 to learn English. I highly recommend this product as an excellent value. from Amazon.com The Spanish-Emglish dictionary is a good tool. However, the keyboard is hard to type and the resolution is not very good. Hope that Franklin can improve those the next time. from Amazon.com I am very satisfied with the translator. I used my previous Franklin for so many years that the numbers and letters were worn off the keys. The translating function is the only feature I use and I'm very content. from Amazon.com
