Developers of hearing aids are always looking for new and improved ways of making hearing aids better and more useful in people’s lives. Wireless connectivity, such as Bluetooth, allows individuals to connect their hearing aids to various devices for improved sound quality streamed directly from the sound source.
Bluetooth-enabled hearing aids can be wirelessly connected to devices such as televisions, cell phones, tablets and FM systems. The Bluetooth feature is available in many styles of hearing aids, including behind-the-ear (BTE), mini receiver-in-the-ear (RITE), in-the-ear (ITE) and in-the-canal (ITC) styles, though each manufacturer provides a different array of products and accessories that are Bluetooth-enabled.
Benefits of Bluetooth hearing aids
One benefit of Bluetooth-enabled hearing aids is that using wireless technology allows you to obtain a better sound quality when using your hearing aids with your favorite electronic devices. Think of them as a wireless pair of headphones. They are convenient and cordless for high-quality sound.
Wireless connectivity makes it easier for hearing aid users to utilize the various technologies in their everyday lives. Making phone calls, using a tablet or computer, listening to music and even watching TV at home can be an enjoyable experience for the tech-savvy user. Bluetooth allows for more custom control when it comes to volumes of different technologies and can be adjusted through the hearing aids or a smartphone app.
