How do the hearing functions of AirPods Pro 2
differ from professional hearing aids? Digibionic will help you understand the advantages
of digital hearing aids in this article.

We are excited that Apple has announced an update to the AirPods Pro 2, adding a hearing assistance feature. This will provide hearing aid functionality for users with mild to moderate hearing loss. This also reflects that hearing loss is a significant issue that cannot be overlooked in today’s world. Today, Digibionic Hearing Aid Store will introduce you to the differences between the hearing aid function of the AirPods Pro 2 and professional hearing aids, explaining how they differ.

First, let’s take a look at a comparison table outlining the basic differences between the two.

Comparison	AirPods hearing aid function	Professional hearing aids
Purpose of use	Designed as wireless headphones with additional hearing aid functions	Designed specifically for those with hearing impairments and long-term use.
Sound quality and audio processing	The voice chat enhancement function has basic voice processing.	Advanced digital signal processing can filter out noise and enhance speech clarity.
Customization and responsiveness	Cannot be customized to individual hearing needs.	Precisely tailored to individual hearing test results
Long-term wearing comfort	Designed for short-term use, may not be suitable for long-term wear.	Designed for long-term wear, taking into account ear comfort.
price	Lower price, classified as general electronic product	The price is higher and some models can be covered by social security.
Legal requirements	Not subject to medical device regulation	It is considered a medical device and must be controlled and inspected by experts.

After learning about the basic benefits of digital hearing aids, we can summarize the key points as follows: The main advantage of digital hearing aids is their ability to enhance speech clarity by using large hearing data to adjust to the sounds the user needs. On the other hand, AirPods Pro features spatial audio designed for entertainment and convenience, particularly for individuals with mild hearing loss. Meanwhile, professional-grade digital hearing aids are equipped with multiple directional microphones to improve speech clarity in various environments, which is one of the reasons medical hearing aids are more expensive than regular headphones.

However, hearing restoration is a process that requires caution. Hearing aids are important medical devices regulated by the FDA and need to be continuously adjusted by your hearing care specialist. Therefore, we recommend consulting with an expert at the Digibionic Hearing Aid Store. Call 02-1150568 for advice, knowledge, and recommendations about hearing aids. We are always here to assist you.

After comparing the prices and differences between hearing aids and AirPods Pro, we will now explain why high-quality hearing aids, especially for the elderly, tend to be more expensive than regular devices.

1. AirPods or regular Bluetooth headphones are primarily designed for entertainment purposes. Apple added a hearing aid function in this model to help individuals with mild to moderate hearing loss address some hearing issues, and to reduce the risks associated with safety and cognitive decline caused by hearing loss. On the other hand, high-quality hearing aids from hearing aid stores offer various sound channels, levels, functions, and sound compensation modes for different environments.

2. If the average hearing loss is 60dB or more, we recommend choosing high-quality hearing aids from a hearing aid store. These offer a range of ear tips, echo management, speaker enhancement, continuous adjustment based on the hearing graph, and testing in different environmental conditions, making them the best option for individuals with significant hearing loss. (You can call 02-1150568 to schedule a free consultation regarding your hearing graph and hearing status.)

3. While AirPods Pro 2 may offer a similar experience to the Mimitakara Goodhearing app, which provides basic hearing checks via your mobile phone, the accuracy of frequency testing, speech recognition, and the process of improving communication in conversations are also essential. This is why we recommend visiting a hearing aid store to compare with high-quality hearing aids available in-store.

If you have mild hearing loss and don’t need to wear a device for long periods due to work or going out, we believe that using the latest AirPods Pro from Apple can meet your temporary hearing needs. However, if your hearing loss starts to affect your daily life and you have received advice from a doctor, choosing a hearing aid that has been customized by an expert is crucial. Each model, price, directional microphones, and sound adjustments will vary.
