Hello:
I’ve recently bought a pair of Resound ONE hearing aids. They are great, I’m happy with them, but, since they are quite expensive devices, I want to be sure that I’m squeezing all the possible juice from them.
Also, my hearing loss is not that severe. I can hear just fine without them, but hearing aids help me indeed.
I have an Android phone from 2018, which objectively doesn’t need update (it works fine. Phone calls, instagram, whatsapp, email and camera). But now I wonder… It is worth it to buy and iPhone 13 only to be able to stream bidirectionally using my hearing aids, answering hands free, as well as using the Live Listen feature?
Bear in mind that:
- I don’t have difficulties hearing phone conversations whatsoever.
- I might even not use those features that much.
- These phones are freaking expensive! Same applies to the rest of the Apple ecosystem (apple watch, chargers…).
The main question here is: Is the potential of my hearings aids (2700€) being held back because I don’t have the appropriate phone and accessories? (~1500€)
So, I would like to read your thoughts.
Happy Holidays
