Dictionary works fine and as described, however it seems it is for ones learning english more than for english wanting to learn chinese.
I wish you could input pinyin to get english meaning rather than depend on characters.
This dictionary is worth the money if you want a basic dictionary and don’t rely heavily on pinyin.

I ordered the item and was very disappointed after receiving the item.
1. The shipping was very sloppy. The product was tightly wrapped in a cheap plastic bag without protection(considering this is a electronic device)
2. The product looked old and the copyright was ended at 2006 hinting it’s be in store for a long while. Upon opening it, one of the battery was leaking chemical indicating indeed, the product must be in storage for a long time.
3. Using my own battery, I tried the device and right the way, couple of words I entered had no sounds.
I requested a full refund and was told that, based on the store policy, I am responsible for the shipping even though it’s defective, and I was told that, when I returned the product, I better make sure I have a tracking number.
Well, what can I say?
