What are the functions of a hearing aid and what can it help with?

• Watching TV: If a hearing aid user wants to watch TV programs, such as the morning news every day, a Bluetooth hearing aid can stream the TV sound directly to the device via Bluetooth. This is often the first choice when purchasing a hearing aid.

• Phone Calls: For users who want to communicate with family and friends via phone calls or Line daily, a Bluetooth hearing aid can stream conversation sound directly from the mobile phone to the hearing aid via Bluetooth.

• Automatic Noise Reduction: If the user is often in noisy environments such as air-conditioned rooms, engine rooms, factories, temples/churches, or other noisy surroundings (including distant human voices, traffic noise, or explosions like firecrackers), it is recommended to choose a hearing aid that automatically filters and reduces background noise.

• Automatic Focus on Sound Sources: If the user frequently goes to crowded places (e.g., meetings, lectures, seminars, restaurants), a hearing aid with directional microphone technology is recommended. This allows the device to automatically focus on the main sound source, typically at a 30°–60° angle in front of the user.

• Eliminate Echoes: Echoes from speech or environmental sounds can make it difficult for the hearing-impaired user to clearly understand conversations. Older adults often respond with “oh” or “um,” or experience a humming sound after using a hearing aid, indicating that they urgently need a device with echo reduction functionality.

How to Compare and Buy a Hearing Aid

Like choosing eyeglasses, before purchasing a hearing aid, it is recommended to visit a hearing center for a free hearing test and trial fitting. Audiologists and technicians can recommend the most suitable model.

Key criteria for comparing and purchasing a hearing aid include:

• Actual hearing loss and level of customization required

• Features and price comparison

• Available government subsidies

• Payment convenience

• Warranty duration and conditions

• Distance to the store or availability of home delivery/service

Additionally, consider real-life usability and level of customization to ensure the hearing aid meets your daily communication needs.
