1.0 out of 5 stars I wouldn't buy it again....
1. This product comes with an instruction manual that is in Chinese only.
2. The LCD screen is very dark, making it difficult to see anything on it (i.e. even when set at max. brightness -- it either has no backlight or, if there is one, it is very weak).
3. The audible voice pronunciations are very poor and hard to understand (both in Chinese and in English)...

When you first put the battery in, a question in chinese shows up. After the initial set up, it was a easier to use. Since my wife can read chinese, I wrapped it up and gave it to her. If you can have the initial set up done by a person who can read chinese, you should be okay.

1. This product comes with an instruction manual that is in Chinese only.
2. The LCD screen is very dark, making it difficult to see anything on it (i.e. even when set at max. brightness -- it either has no backlight or, if there is one, it is very weak).
3. The audible voice pronunciations are very poor and hard to understand (both in Chinese and in English).
4. The batteries that came with the product died within only couple of hours of use -- replacement batteries have lasted a couple of weeks, so far (i.e. the product doesn't drain the batteries excessively, but the included baterries are junk).
5. I would not recommend this product even for half the current selling price....
