Best Bluetooth-Enabled Hearing Aids of 2024 (2024)

Bluetooth hearing aids make it easier than ever to connect wirelessly to many of your favorite devices — including smartphones, tablets, and laptops. Quality Bluetooth hearing aids should be easy to use, compatible with a wide range of devices, and capable of holding a charge for a full day. This way, older adults with hearing loss can use them all day to hear phone calls, listen to music, watch TV, and more, and then leave them to charge at night.

This guide covers our picks for the best Bluetooth hearing aids based on extensive hands-on testing by our tech team, as well as evaluations from Dr. Ruth Reisman, a licensed audiologist.

The Best Bluetooth Hearing Aids

  • Jabra Enhance - Best available for online purchase
  • Eargo - Most discreet
  • Phonak - Best for those with multiple Bluetooth devices
  • Widex - Best for music enthusiasts who want superior sound quality
  • Starkey - Best for active users and those who want medical alert support

Our Methodology: How We Chose the Best Bluetooth Hearing Aids

Best Bluetooth-Enabled Hearing Aids of 2024 (6)

Our team of tech experts test the hearing aids on our list by hand, including the Eargo 6 featured above.

Our team of tech experts, along with Dr. Reisman tested many of the industry’s best hearing aids and compiled this list of our top picks. The Bluetooth hearing aids on this list were selected after over 100 hours of research and hands-on testing.

Our team and Dr. Reisman assessed each device based on several criteria, such as:

  • Durability: Hearing aids can be expensive. For this reason, we chose Bluetooth hearing aids with strong, durable designs that can be used daily for years, without the need for frequent repairs or replacements.
  • Ease of use: Bluetooth technology may seem a little advanced for less tech-savvy seniors, but once you get the hang of it, Bluetooth hearing aids can (and should) be very easy to use. We tested different brands to see which ones offered the most user-friendly experience to seniors.
  • Price: The Bluetooth hearing aids on this list are available at various price points, ensuring that there’s a good option for most budgets.
  • Sound quality: While Bluetooth is a reliable connection type for hearing aids, it doesn’t guarantee that the underlying device will provide great sound quality. Dr. Reisman reviewed our research and testing to see which Bluetooth hearing aids could offer the best overall sound quality and value.
  • Size: Many older adults prefer models that are lightweight, comfortable to wear, and discreet. We evaluated brands with larger, behind-the-ear models, as well as smaller, completely-in-canal models.

    Jabra Enhance Select 300 hearing aids

    Jabra Enhance, formerly called Lively, offers high-tech, over-the-counter (OTC) Bluetooth hearing aids. These hearing aids are a great option for mild to moderate hearing loss and offer additional features for those struggling with tinnitus. Dr. Reisman notes that “Jabra Enhance hearing aids can be a great solution for someone who is independently tech savvy and wants an affordable and flexible solution to manage their hearing loss and tinnitus.”

    The company’s three behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aids are “Made for iPhone,” which means they are designed to seamlessly connect with most iOS devices. If you’re team Android, direct or accessory-supported streaming is available, depending on the model you choose. We tested them out on both types of devices and had no issue maintaining a Bluetooth connection with clear sound quality. Just keep in mind that Jabra Enhance hearing aids are only sold online and are not custom fit in person, so they are best for seniors who don’t mind making remote adjustments.

    Pros & Cons:

    Pros About Jabra Enhance

    • Bluetooth for wireless adjustments and direct streaming
    • Three years of follow-up hearing care and technical support with premium packages
    • Free online hearing test
    • Wide range of color choices
    • 100-day money-back guarantee
    • Three-year warranty with premium packages
    • Free shipping

    Cons About Jabra Enhance

    • Not suitable for severe or profound hearing loss
    • Only BTE models available
    • Not all hearing aid models are equipped with binaural directionality.

    Summary:

    Our Experience With Jabra Enhance

    Jabra Enhance’s Bluetooth technology makes it easy to wirelessly adjust the hearing aids with just a few taps on your smartphone or tablet. During testing, a Jabra Enhance audiologist walked us through how to use the mobile app and helped us make adjustments to better fit our hearing. The app was easy to use. With it, we could quickly change programs, adjust volume, and chat with the audiology team. We could also answer calls directly through the hearing aids on our iPhone, and we found the sound quality was excellent. Hands-free streaming has only been around for a few years with OTC hearing aids. In the past, you had to use an additional accessory (though this is still the case with some phone models), so we appreciate these technological advancements.

    Making adjustments using the Jabra Enhance mobile app

    If you’re shopping for a long-lasting rechargeable hearing aid, the Enhance Select 300 and Enhance Select 500 models provide up to 24 hours of listening time per charge, so you’ll be set for the day. We used the Jabra Enhance Select 300 for a full day without ever getting a “low battery” warning.

    Best Bluetooth-Enabled Hearing Aids of 2024 (16)

    Charging Jabra Enhance Select 300 hearing aids

    With a 100-day money-back guarantee and a three-year warranty for Premium packages, there isn’t much to lose when you try Jabra Enhance hearing aids. We were especially impressed with how well they reduced wind and road noise during our tests. For a closer look at Jabra Enhance, head to our latest Jabra Enhance hearing aid review.

    Pricing

    Jabra Enhance charges the following prices for Premium packages: Enhance Select 500 costs $1,995 per pair, Enhance Select 300 is $1,695 per pair, and Enhance Select 50R is $1,195 per pair. These are competitively priced, though there are a few options on the market, including MDHearing, that only cost a few hundred dollars per pair. If you want to save a little more on your Jabra Enhance devices, you can choose a Basic package for any model, which lowers the price by $200. Just remember that these basic packages are preprogrammed. They won’t come with any follow-up care like the Premium packages do.

    Testing out Eargo 7 hearing aids

    Eargo is known for its discreet hearing aids, including three completely-in-canal (CIC) models and one earbud-style device. Because they fit in the ear, Eargo’s hearing aids are sleeker and less visible than Jabar Enhance’s BTE models. LINK by Eargo is the brand’s only Bluetooth device, which lets you stream music and calls directly to the hearing aids from Apple or Android devices. These devices are designed to look like earbuds, so they’re great for those who want a low-profile option or enjoy the fit of traditional earbuds.

    » Related Reading: Best invisible hearing aids in 2024

    Eargo’s CIC devices don’t have direct Bluetooth streaming, which we were a bit disappointed to see. Instead, Eargo’s charging case uses Bluetooth to pair your devices with the mobile app for remote adjustments. If discretion is your main concern, you may be willing to sacrifice the Bluetooth.

    » A Closer Look: Eargo 7 review and pricing

    Pros & Cons:

    Pros About Eargo

    • Available for purchase online without a prescription
    • Lower price compared to prescription hearing aids
    • 45-day free returns
    • Up to two-year warranty
    • Nearly invisible design
    • Rechargeable with up to 16-hour battery life
    • Lifetime telecare from licensed hearing professionals

    Cons About Eargo

    • Not designed for those with profound hearing loss
    • CIC models don’t have direct Bluetooth streaming

    Summary:

    Our Experience with Eargo

    LINK by Eargo offers direct Bluetooth streaming, so you can answer a call on the hearing aids with a quick tap. This model has solid sound quality with directional microphones, active noise cancellation, noise reduction, and feedback cancellation. They’re also sweat- and water-resistant, making them perfect for active older adults. These rechargeable devices last up to nine hours, which is pretty short compared to Jabra Enhance’s 30-hour battery life. If you want a model that will last all day, Eargo’s other models have 16 hours of battery life. We wore our Eargo 7s all day and never ran out of battery.

    Eargo’s CIC models take a unique approach to Bluetooth technology. You won’t find Bluetooth built into the devices. Instead, when we needed to tweak the settings on our devices, we tapped into Bluetooth tech via Eargo’s charging case and user-friendly smartphone app (available on iOS and Android). During our tests, we found the charging case to be sleek, modern, and easy to use. The app gave us full control over the volume and settings, even allowing us to apply programmed categories for different listening situations.

    Best Bluetooth-Enabled Hearing Aids of 2024 (20)

    Using the Eargo app to adjust our hearing aid settings

    Dr. Reisman notes, “Eargo hearing aids are certainly an innovation in the hearing aid arena. Its unique design, features, and customer service model has certainly allowed for true evolution in the fitting of direct-to-consumer hearing aids. Just like most devices for those who are candidates, it seems performance and satisfaction are very high for Eargo hearing aids.”

    » Our Full Review: Eargo hearing aid review

    Pricing

    Unlike prescription brands like Phonak and Starkey, Eargo is very transparent with its pricing. LINK by Eargo, the brand's most affordable model, costs $799 per pair. If you want an invisible device, you’ll need to upgrade to the Eargo SE ($1,650 per pair), Eargo 6 ($2,250 per pair), or the Eargo 7 ($2,950 per pair). Eargo offers financing for 12, 24, or 36 months, so splitting the cost into monthly payments is possible. While Eargo is less expensive than prescription brands, it’s still fairly pricey compared to other OTC brands like Jabra Enhance. However, the cost may be worth it for those who want discreet hearing aids.

    Best Bluetooth-Enabled Hearing Aids of 2024 (23)

    Phonak offers a variety of hearing aids for all levels of hearing loss.

    Phonak hearing aids take Bluetooth connectivity to the next level with the Audéo Lumity and Naída Bluetooth models. Unlike OTC hearing aids that are only designed for mild to moderate hearing loss, these prescription BTE devices are suitable for all levels of hearing loss, from mild to profound. That means if your hearing loss changes, Phonak hearing aids can be adjusted to your needs. Both models can connect directly to iOS and Android smartphones, along with other Bluetooth-enabled devices like tablets, speakers, or TVs. That’s something you can’t get with devices from Eargo.

    » Hearing Loss Resource: Best hearing aids for severe hearing loss

    Pros & Cons:

    Pros About Phonak

    • Personalized dynamic noise cancellation
    • Motion sensor hearing feature
    • Wide range of models to choose from
    • Bluetooth for wireless adjustments and direct streaming
    • Binaural VoiceStream Technology™
    • Bluetooth for remote adjustments and hands-free calling
    • Speech enhancer

    Cons About Phonak

    • Can only be bought through a local provider
    • No pricing information online

    Our Experience with Phonak:

    Phonak’s Audéo Lumity and Naída Lumity devices have a motion sensor that allows pivoting between Bluetooth devices. Let’s say you’re in the kitchen cooking up a delicious breakfast and listening to your favorite music streaming into your hearing aids from your smart speaker. Then, a phone call comes in from your son. You can tap your hearing aid to connect and answer the call on your smartphone. With Phonak’s tap control feature, you can easily accept and end phone calls, play and pause music, and activate the voice assistant. This means that Phonak might not be best for seniors who are less comfortable with new tech. But if you don’t mind a learning curve, Phonak offers a superior hearing experience to OTC brands like Jabra Enhance.

    » Our Full Review: Phonak hearing aid reviews

    Naída Lumity is Dr. Reisman’s favorite Phonak hearing aid because it offers great support and sound for severe to profound hearing loss. She says, “These devices are often the only option for individuals with very significant hearing loss. [It has] all the advanced options of other Phonak hearing aids, including Bluetooth, hands-free calls, and Roger compatibility for supporting seamless communication in all environments. For individuals with severe losses this can significantly improve their quality of life.” If you have severe to profound hearing loss, Phonak is one of the best options on the market.

    Pricing

    Unlike OTC brands like Eargo and Jabra Enhance that list prices online, prescription brands, including Phonak, don’t discuss pricing online. That’s because the cost of Phonak hearing aids differs depending on where you shop. These hearing aids must be fitted and purchased in person, and every dispenser sets its own prices. According to Dr. Reisman, Phonak’s prices typically range from $1,000 to $3,750 per ear.

    While this is much more expensive than OTC hearing aids, Phonak’s hearing aids offer advanced features and solutions for all levels of hearing loss, which you won’t find with OTC devices. To find out if Phonak’s Bluetooth devices fit your budget, consult your local hearing care professional for additional information.

    Widex Moment (BTE) hearing aids

    Widex offers cutting-edge technology, including features like ZeroDelay and PureSound, which enables lightning-fast sound processing. The result is crystal clear, natural sound without distortion, perfect for enjoying music, conversations, and more. It’s easy to understand why musicians and our resident audiologists favor Widex! In fact, Dr. Brad Ingrao, one of the audiologists we consult with, says that Widex is his go-to brand for performing musicians. Widex offers a wide range of prescription hearing aids for mild to profound hearing loss, so there are solutions for most users.

    Did You Know?

    Did You Know? Cost plays a major role in the 17 million U.S. seniors with hearing loss who don’t use hearing aids.

    Pros & Cons:

    Pros About Widex

    • PureSound technology with zero delay
    • SoundSense AI learning
    • TruAcoustics feature for a highly customized sound
    • Bluetooth for wireless adjustments and direct streaming
    • Water-resistant
    • Tinnitus management features
    • Discreet rechargeable models

    Cons About Widex

    • Cannot purchase Widex hearing aids directly from the website
    • Remote care must be obtained from your provider

    Our Experience With Widex:

    Widex was one of the first manufacturers to create Made-for-iPhone hearing aids. Apple and Android users alike can stream calls, music, and video directly to their hearing aids, with no accessories needed. The Moment mobile app allows full control of hearing aids via a smartphone or tablet. Widex is best for users who want more control over audio settings, especially compared to simpler and less advanced devices from OTC providers. Widex app users can easily personalize their listening experiences and create custom programs for different sound environments.

    » Our Full Review: Widex hearing aid reviews

    Packed with sound learning technology, zero-delay processing, and direct Bluetooth streaming, the Widex Moment model stands out among Widex’s broad range of hearing aids. Dr. Reisman notes that Widex is among “the best hearing aids for musicians due to its wide frequency response range” and is “at the forefront of tinnitus management for patients.”

    Pricing

    Similar to Phonak, Widex doesn’t give pricing information online. You’ll need to visit a local hearing center to speak with an audiologist about the cost. Dr. Reisman estimates that Phonak hearing aids cost anywhere from $1,000 to $3,750 per device. This makes Widex a little less convenient for budget-conscious seniors or those who just want to order their hearing aids online. Still, the advanced technology and care from an audiologist is worth the cost in our book.

    Testing out Starkey hearing aids


    According to the Centers for Disease Control, regular physical activity is one of the most critical things seniors can do for their health.1 Starkey’s Bluetooth-enabled hearing aids are a one-stop shop for hearing, brain, and body health. Powered with artificial intelligence, Starkey’s Livio AI Bluetooth hearing aids pair with the brand’s Thrive app. The app can track exercise activities (like the number of steps taken) and engagement activities (like the time spent actively listening). They can even detect falls and call for help, which is essential for older adults with hearing loss, as they are at higher risk of falling.2

    Starkey hearing aids are also compatible with most Apple and Android devices for direct streaming and wireless adjustments. Described by Dr. Reisman as the “Rolls Royce of hearing aids,” Starkey devices function like a medical alert system, activity tracker, and hearing aid all rolled into one!

    » You Might Like: Best Android-compatible hearing aids

    Pros & Cons:

    Pros About Starkey

    • Crisp sound without interference
    • Built-in fall detection and alerts with some models
    • Activity and hearing performance tracking
    • Bluetooth for wireless adjustments and direct streaming
    • TeleHear remote support
    • 30-day money-back guarantee
    • U.S.-based company

    Cons About Starkey

    • Warranty details not available on website
    • Must visit in-person to purchase hearing aids

    Our Experience With Starkey:

    Built-in fall detection is a standout Starkey feature. Livio AI hearing aids have unique 3D sensors that can detect when a wearer falls and automatically send an alert to the designated caregiver’s smartphone. As Dr. Reisman notes, “In addition to superior sound quality, the health features on these devices are not available in any other hearing device.” She also says that “patients notice an immediate improvement in sound quality when trying these devices.”

    Starkey’s AI hearing aids can also perform language translation in real time, which is a very unique and useful feature. While these features require a bit more tech-savviness than hearing aids from OTC brands like Jabra Enhance, they are designed to offer a more holistic approach to well-being for seniors with hearing loss, which we appreciate.

    » Our Full Review: Starkey hearing aids

    Pricing

    Similar to the other prescription hearing aids on our list, Starkey does not sell their devices directly to consumers online, so you won’t find Starkey prices listed on their website. Like Phonak and Widex, the only way to purchase Starkey hearing aids is to visit a hearing aid distributor or audiology center to inquire about pricing, product details, and possible financing. Dr. Reisman estimates that Starkey hearing aids cost anywhere from $1,000 to $4,000 per device, placing them at the high end of the pricing spectrum, even for prescription hearing aids.

The Runners-Up

Here’s a quick look at a few Bluetooth hearing aids that didn’t make our list, but still deserve an honorary mention:

  • Lexie: With prices starting at $799 per pair, Lexie Lumen is one of the lowest-priced Bluetooth hearing aids on the market. Check out our Lexie hearing aid review to learn more.
  • Otofonix: Otofonix is an OTC brand with a few Bluetooth hearing aids in their product lineup, the Groove and Sona models. You can learn more about these user-friendly devices from our hands-on review of Otofonix.
  • Signia: Signia offers an impressive selection of Bluetooth hearing aids. Plus, the provider’s Augmented Xperience (AX) platform features direct Bluetooth streaming (Apple and Android), immersive soundscape, and automatic situation detection. Read our Signia hearing aid review for all the details.

Types of Bluetooth Hearing aids

Made-for-iPhone Hearing Aids

Back in 2015, Apple patented its own Bluetooth connectivity that is compatible with certain hearing aids from the industry’s leading providers. These are called Made-for-iPhone (MFi) hearing aids. This connectivity allows devices running on the iOS platform, such as iPhones, and iPads, to connect directly with the hearing aids without draining the battery. In May 2023, Apple announced that select Mac devices (most models manufactured in 2020 or later) can connect with MFi hearing aids as well.3

Android-Compatible Hearing Aids

Google launched its own Bluetooth connectivity in 2018 for select Android phones. Most popular hearing aid brands now offer Android-compatible devices. However, only phones with Android 10 or later and Bluetooth 5.0+ technology are compatible with these hearing aids.

Bluetooth Streaming vs. Wireless Bluetooth Adjustments

There are two different types of Bluetooth features for hearing aids: streaming and wireless adjustments. Some hearing aids only have one or the other, while some may have both. We’ll dive into the differences between the two below.

Bluetooth wireless hearing aid adjustments

Most Bluetooth hearing aids pair with a mobile app. For example, Phonak Bluetooth hearing aids pair with the myPhonak app. Once the hearing aid is paired, you can make wireless adjustments from your connected device. Wireless adjustments include options like volume control, environmental setting selection, remote care, and tinnitus relief soundscapes.

From the Pros:

From the Pros: Our comprehensive hearing aid buyer's guide covers the types of hearing aids, important features to consider, and how to snag the best deal.

Keep in mind each brand has its own app, so features may vary. Wireless adjustments are an excellent solution for individuals with low vision or unsteady hands since you don’t have to fiddle with tiny buttons on the hearing aid. Due to the size and lack of manual control features, wireless adjustments are a must for invisible hearing aids, like completely-in-canal and invisible-in-canal hearing aids.

Bluetooth streaming

The Bluetooth streaming feature takes your hearing aids and their capabilities to the next level. You’ll find direct Bluetooth streaming on brands such as Jabra Enhance, Phonak, and Starkey. Depending on the brand and model chosen, features may include the ability to stream content like phone calls, music, audiobooks, and television through your hearing aids. This high-tech component is convenient and improves an individual's overall hearing experience. This streaming feature is fantastic for people who use several Bluetooth-enabled devices.

If you’re unsure how a particular feature works, ask a hearing support team member to walk you through it. Just remember to be patient with yourself; it takes time to get used to a new device.

Benefits of Bluetooth Hearing Aids

Bluetooth has elevated the hearing aid industry by providing a more seamless and convenient user experience. Streaming via Bluetooth has many perks. Here are just a few:

Personalized listening experience

Bluetooth hearing aids allow you to enjoy music and your favorite shows. There is no need to replace hearing aids with a set of wireless earbuds. Bluetooth hearing aids with streaming features can act as both! Bluetooth hearing aids can also be personalized to suit the wearer’s lifestyle and needs. For example, volume can be easily controlled by the streamer or the hearing aids, depending on the manufacturer’s design. Over time, settings can be honed to perfectly match the user’s preferences.

Standard protocol

Since Bluetooth is an electronics industry-standard protocol, the functionality is pretty uniform from one device to another. Bluetooth connection is always secure with no interference. When shopping for a Bluetooth hearing aid, it’s also good to consider other features that may be important to you, such as tinnitus masking, feedback cancellation, background noise reduction, and speech enhancement.

Multiple connections

Bluetooth hearing aids can be connected to various devices so you can conveniently switch between them as needed. For example, if you are watching a movie on your laptop, you can have the hearing aids connected to that device. If you receive an incoming phone call in the middle of the movie, you can pause the audio from your laptop and connect the hearing aids to your smartphone to accept the call.

The specific limitations and processes for this differ by manufacturer and model. If this kind of listening is important to you, be sure to ask your hearing care professional to demonstrate how this works and whether or not the hearing aids are compatible with your devices.

Remote control

If you choose a Bluetooth hearing aid that is small or invisible, it may be hard to control settings, such as volume, on the device itself. The great news is that these days, it’s pretty common for hearing aids to allow you to adjust controls remotely from the streamer. Typically, you do this through a mobile app on your smartphone or tablet. This wireless technology makes adjusting your hearing aids quick and discreet.

Final Thoughts on Bluetooth Hearing Aids for Seniors

Much of today’s technology offers Bluetooth connectivity, so it’s a no-brainer to invest in Bluetooth hearing aids if you regularly use other devices like a smartphone or tablet. If you are still unsure which Bluetooth hearing aid is best for you and your lifestyle after exploring options online, reach out to an audiologist or hearing professional nearby to get additional feedback and guidance.

Whether you’re just beginning your hearing aid journey or shopping for replacement devices, it’s essential to understand which types of hearing aids are the ideal match for your hearing health needs. In the video below (toward the bottom of the article), our Editor-in-Chief, Jeff Hoyt, speaks with Brad Ingrao, Au.D. on how to make an informed hearing aid choice.
