If you haven’t thought about hearing aids since your great grandfather wore one to your violin recital, you might be shocked at how much they’ve changed. In fact, hearing aids have changed so much in the last few years many of our customers tend not to think of them as just hearing aids. Not only are hearing aids far more discreet (with some of them being completely hidden in the ear canal), but they use sophisticated artificial intelligence (AI) and Bluetooth which add a whole other level of sound quality, clarity and, frankly, usefulness. There was a time that you couldn’t use hearing aids with telephones. Now digital hearing aids will synch right to your smartphone.

Here are just a few of the amazing advances in hearing-aid technology:

Bluetooth features that sync with your TV, phone and other smart devices.
Biometric tracking abilities, so you can replace your fitness tracker device, or even your alert pendant. (Some hearing aids are able to detect falls in case you’re unable to call for help.)
Artificial intelligence, so you can filter out noise to focus on the music or voice you want to hear.
Translation capabilities—yes, this is new technology, but pretty amazing, especially if you enjoy traveling.
More comfortable, extended-wear options.

What’s the difference between digital hearing aids and analog?

Back in the day, there were only analog hearing aids, which are essentially amplifying devices. Similar to digital hearing aids, they have a tiny microphone, a receiver and a component designed to make sounds louder. But that’s where the comparison ends, because digital hearing aids also have a microchip, which makes them akin to tiny computers. Many of the amazing benefits listed above are only possible with digital hearing aids including:

Automatically focus on voices (instead of noise)
Cancel out that screeching feedback sound older models sometimes made
Connect to other devices
Discern between situations where you’d want to focus on one sound (like talking to a waiter in a restaurant) versus situations where you’d want to hear a variety of sounds (like at a rock concert)

What this means is that digital hearing aids offer a sound quality much closer to your natural hearing. Is it any wonder why most people prefer digital hearing aids?

Why wait? You don’t have to live with hearing loss.
