When foreign customers are making a purchase, they often fall into the misconception that "the lighter, the better". However, this is not the case. A truly portable wireless tour guide system needs to balance four core aspects: weight, size, wearing method, and storage convenience, and also be adaptable to different usage scenarios - for instance, tour guides in scenic spots need to wear them for long periods, enterprises need to carry them in bulk for reception, and museums require them to be lightweight and not affect the visiting experience. Only by meeting these requirements can it truly be called "easy to carry".
4 core criteria for foreign customers to select portable wireless tour guide systems: Avoid purchasing pitfalls
1. Weight: Not the lighter, the better, but "no burden" is appropriate
For portability, weight is the foundation, but it's not the case that the lighter, the better. Many brands sacrifice the product's sound quality and battery life in pursuit of extreme lightness, even reducing the thickness of the casing, which leads to easy damage of the device. Foreign customers often need to use the tour guide system for long periods, such as tour guides leading groups for 8-10 hours a day, and tour guides need to repeatedly wear and store the devices when receiving multiple groups. At this time, the weight of the device is best controlled between 15-25 grams - this weight range can ensure the stability and durability of the device, and also allow for long-term wear without pressure, and it won't cause a significant burden when put in a pocket or worn on the ear.
It's worth noting that foreign customers often need to carry the tour guide systems in bulk, such as preparing devices for dozens of tourists at once in a scenic spot. At this time, the weight difference of a single device will directly affect the overall carrying burden. Therefore, in addition to the weight of a single device, the convenience of bulk storage should also be considered, a point often overlooked by many customers.
2.Wearing method: Adapt to scenarios, and being comfortable for long-term wear is more important
The wearing method of a wireless tour guide system directly determines the convenience of carrying and using. Currently, the common wearing methods on the market include ear-hook type, chest-hook type, and in-ear type. Among them, the ear-hook type is the most suitable for multiple scenarios abroad and is easy to carry - the ear-hook type does not require holding, does not occupy hand space, can be directly hung on the ear when wearing, and can be easily stored after removal, unlike the chest-hook type which requires a lanyard, or the in-ear type which is prone to loss or hygiene risks.
For foreign customers, the ear-hook type tour guide system also needs to meet two details: one is that it is not left or right ear specific, making it convenient for quick wearing and distribution; the other is that it adopts ergonomic design, fitting different ear shapes to avoid ear pain after long-term wear. Especially for tourists in foreign museums and scenic spots, who have different skin colors and ear shapes, a universal ear-hook design can fit more people and improve the user experience.
3.Convenient storage: No pressure when carrying in bulk, suitable for outdoor/exhibition hall scenarios
When foreign customers purchase tour guide systems, they often need to use them in bulk, so the convenience of storage is crucial. Many brands' tour guide systems, although lightweight individually, do not come with dedicated storage and charging equipment. When carrying them in bulk, separate boxes need to be prepared, which is not only cumbersome but also prone to device damage. A truly portable tour guide system must be equipped with a dedicated storage and charging integrated box, which can achieve bulk charging, facilitate storage and transportation, and even be directly taken on planes and trains without additional packaging.
In addition, the design of the storage box should also meet the needs of foreign customers, such as using an aluminum alloy shell, which is lightweight and durable, and can withstand collisions during outdoor transportation; having independent slots and shock-absorbing foam inside to ensure each device is stably placed and reduce vibration damage; and having a dedicated area for accessories to store charging cables, microphones, etc., to avoid loss.
4.Long battery life: Reduce charging frequency, avoid carrying charging equipment
Battery life, although not directly affecting "portability", indirectly determines the convenience of carrying. If the battery life of the audio guide is short, customers will need to charge it frequently, which means they have to carry charging equipment, increasing the burden of carrying. Especially in outdoor scenarios, where there is no power supply, insufficient battery life will directly affect usage. Therefore, a portable audio guide should have a battery life of at least 8 hours to meet the usage needs for a whole day, and it should also support batch fast charging to save charging time.
