Your guide to the latest hearing aid technology 

Hearing aid technology has come a long way, with remarkable improvements now happening year on year. If you're in the market for an upgrade, you'll discover a world of exciting features and advancements designed to make your hearing experience better than ever. Think of it like this: your hearing aids are getting smarter, just like your phone or computer. They can automatically adjust, learn from your preferences, and even connect to other devices — opening up a world of possibilities. Let's take a quick tour of the cutting-edge tech you'll find in today's hearing aids. We'll cover the three major advancements that have become standard, plus some standout features available in specific models and brands.

How do Bluetooth hearing aids work?

Think of Bluetooth hearing aids like a personal wireless sound system, tailored just for you. They connect directly to your favourite devices – smartphones, TVs, tablets, even laptops – so you can stream audio straight to your ears, no matter where you are. This means phone calls, music, podcasts, and TV shows are crystal clear, right in your ears. No more struggling to hear the dialogue over background noise or missing out on the details of a song.

What can you do with Bluetooth hearing aids?

Here is a quick list of all the different ways you can use Bluetooth-compatible hearing aids:

  • Phone apps

  • Streaming

  • Music Streaming

  • Remote Microphone Streaming

Stay connected to the world

Take a look around. How many of your devices use Bluetooth? Your phone, your laptop, maybe even your TV. So why not your hearing aids? Bluetooth technology connects you to the sounds you love – crystal-clear phone calls, immersive TV audio, and even the voices of loved ones in a crowded room.

How do rechargeable hearing aids work?

With rechargeable hearing aids, you don't have to open the hearing devices at all to remove old batteries and put in new ones. Here's how typical hearing devices work that are rechargeable:
  • 1.

    Plugin

    Plug your charging station into an outlet
  • 2.

    Place

    Set your rechargeable hearing devices into the charging station
  • 3.

    Charge

    You should see a light come on to indicate that they are set properly, and the batteries are being charged
  • 4.

    Ready to use

    When the light colour changes to indicate they are fully charged, you remove the device
That's it! Using rechargeable hearing aids is that easy. You can set them into the charging station overnight and have a full charge in the morning to last the day.

Rechargeable Hearing Aids

One of the most exciting advancements in hearing aids is the rise of rechargeable batteries. Thanks to lithium-ion technology – the same kind that powers your smartphone – these batteries offer longer life and effortless recharging. Simply place your hearing aids in their charging case overnight and wake up to a full day of clear, uninterrupted hearing. Some models even offer portable charging cases for on-the-go convenience.

Experience Advanced Hearing Aid Features

The technology and features available in new hearing aids now are completely different from what they were a decade ago. All hearing aids are now completely digital instead of analog. Most hearing  devices now come with rechargeable batteries, with the option to buy units with replaceable batteries.

Now you can also stream audio from Bluetooth enabled devices directly to your hearing aids, which can help you hear your TV, phone, and music much more clearly, and without having to turn the  volume way up.

You also have the ability to control your hearing devices with your smartphone. This can be much more convenient than using another accessory or doing it manually. You can also buy hearing aids that use machine learning to update the settings automatically for you.

Lastly, hearing devices now are much better at making the sounds you want to hear clearer and more natural. They reduce background noise, enhance the sound of your own voice, and process sound faster than ever before.

If you want to know more, you can contact us at any time to schedule a free product discussion. You can also try the latest hearing aids for one week for FREE, with no cost or obligations.
