You may ask yourself the above questions when you’re looking for a new hearing aid or when you are looking for your first-ever hearing aid.

What influences a hearing aid's price?

The hearing aid price is based on many factors, including:

• technical features.
• software and connectivity options.
• the type and style of the hearing aid.

One of the main costs connected to developing hearing aids is the investment made in our continuous research to constantly improve the technology in the hearing aids to make them advanced enough to match a modern lifestyle.

Every Philips HearLink hearing aid is designed to greatly improve your hearing experience and help you stay connected to others and the world.

Often one of the biggest difficulties for people with hearing loss is to communicate in noisy places. It takes the most groundbreaking technology like pioneering artificial intelligence (AI) sound technology  to provide a high level of hearing improvement in a noisy environment.

Philips HearLink hearing aids have built-in technology making it possible to connect your hearing aid to smart devices such as your TV or smartphone in order to make your life easier. Fitting all of this into a hearing aid smaller than your little finger takes a lot of research and development which thus influences the hearing aid’s price.

Why should I buy hearing aids?

Treating your hearing loss will help you enjoy some of the beautiful and important sounds of life: the laughter of your grandchildren, birds singing in spring, raindrops falling softly outside your window, your doorbell, the car’s turn signal and the timer on your oven.

It is also important to mention that untreated hearing loss is linked to other health conditions such as dementia, depression¹ and increased risk of falling². Improving your hearing by getting hearing aids can improve both your health and your overall quality of life.

The hearing care specialist plays an essential role

The hearing care specialist has an important role in your journey to getting hearing aids. They help you choose which hearing aid best fits your hearing loss and needs by using specialized equipment to measure your type and degree of hearing loss.

After getting your hearing aids, the hearing care specialist fits them to your hearing loss and ensures they are comfortable. They explain how to manage the hearing aid features to give you the best hearing experience in all environments and can help introduce accessories that can help make life with your hearing aids easier and more convenient. Furthermore, you will need a follow-up fitting with your hearing care specialist to make sure the hearing aids work as expected.
