Modern Bluetooth-enabled hearing aids stream sound directly from smartphones, TVs and other devices, provide hands-free calling, and let you fine-tune listening with phone apps. At EliteListen we fit, program and support the latest digital models so you hear clearer, longer.
Bluetooth hearing aids use modern low-energy Bluetooth protocols to connect wirelessly with phones, TVs and other audio sources. Instead of simply amplifying all sounds, these devices stream audio directly to your ears and process it to improve clarity and reduce background noise. Many models provide app-based controls, rechargeable batteries, and hands-free call functionality.
A new Bluetooth LE broadcast standard called Auracast is rolling out to let venues broadcast audio to many nearby listeners at once. This means in future airports, theatres, gyms and conference halls you may connect your hearing aids directly to venue audio — improving accessibility without special loop systems.
(Auracast is an evolving standard and device support is increasing across brands and phones.)
The practical advantages people experience every day.
Listen to phone calls, music, and TV audio directly — no extra streamer required for many devices.
Answer calls and speak with the other person while the aid acts as the microphone and receiver.
Apps let you change programs, save environments, and request remote support from your clinician.
Many modern models offer fast-charging cases and a full day of hearing — no disposable batteries.
Direct streaming improves voice clarity in noisy situations like restaurants or meetings.
Some brands allow your audiologist to remotely tweak settings through secure app connections.
We work with leading manufacturers — many of these offer models with direct streaming, rechargeables and advanced processing.
Different models suit different needs — below are common types with strengths and things to consider.
BTE devices sit behind the ear and deliver sound to the ear canal with a thin tube. They are durable, simple to handle and powerful — suitable for mild to profound loss. Many Bluetooth BTE models also come with rechargeable options and easy-to-use controls.
RIC models place the receiver (speaker) in the ear canal and the small body behind the ear. This gives a natural sound and compact look. Many RIC models are Bluetooth-capable and comfortable for long wear.
In-ear shapes range from ITE (in the ear — larger) to CIC (completely in canal — tiny). Some modern in-ear models now include Bluetooth streaming using miniaturized components, and they are ideal when cosmetics and discretion are priorities.
Prioritize low-latency streaming and strong microphone performance for calls. Use app-controlled programs for meetings and noisy offices.
Choose rechargeable models with simple app interfaces and larger physical controls if dexterity is a concern. Remote support is helpful for follow-ups.
Look for models with direct TV streaming and music modes; high-fidelity processing enhances music and movies without distortion.
Direct streaming from phones and TVs improves clarity.
Use your hearing aids as a headset for phone conversations.
Fine-tune settings and request remote adjustments via app.
Future-ready for broadcast audio in public spaces (where supported).

Bluetooth hearing aids are devices that use Bluetooth protocols to receive audio from phones, TVs and other sources, enabling direct audio streaming and app control for personalized listening experiences.
Modern hearing aids use Bluetooth Low Energy or optimized streaming to reduce power draw. Phone battery impact is usually small for short sessions, but long streaming can have measurable effect depending on phone and model.
Many models support pairing with multiple devices and allow easy switching. Check the model’s specs for simultaneous connections and multi-point support.
Auracast (LE Audio broadcast) is rolling out across devices and venues. Support is growing among manufacturers and some public places are already trialling it; wider adoption will follow as phones and hearing aids include the feature.
