These appear to be (nearly) identical to the ReSound ONE HAs that I tried out a few weeks ago. Both are from GN. Very interesting.
On phone call do u need to talk to the iPhone (like in others GN resound product) or your voice is picked up by the HA mic? In other words does this HA supports Hands-Free Phone Calls? does they use blutooth 5.2
I have demoed these devices. You need to talk into your phone. However, at the Apple developer conference yesterday they announced that MiFi hearing devices will be backwards compatible with built in microphones in a update to arrive later this year.
What I read that one needs bluetooth 5.2. for hands-free feature.; current iPhone 12 is 5.0. Not sure if the iOS upgrade 15 on the current iPhone can move the bluetooth to 5.2 or u need to buy next gen iPhone 13
I did some checking and I couldn't find any phones with BT 5.2.
So you are certain that BT 5.2 will allow the use of the HAs mics? That is huge!
I just bought these at Costco a few weeks ago... they had to replace the internal mic cords with longer 2" ones to fit my ear better. Since replacement my left hearing aid now intermittently looses Bluetooth sync and also squeals very loudly now when adjusting it in my ear. Costco will not see or talk to me for over a week and Jabra Enhance tech support will not talk to me either and just tells me I have to call Costco. I feel like I'm stuck in the middle now with hearing aids that are having issues.
