Apple's AirPods Pro to Enter Hearing Aid Market with FDA-Approved Update
Apple's AirPods Pro are set to enter the hearing aid market with a software update later this year. The update, approved by the FDA, aims to provide an accessible and innovative solution for individuals with mild to moderate hearing loss.
AirPods Pro's hearing aid functionality, designed for those with mild to moderate hearing loss, will be available via a software update in the fall, compatible with iOS 18 or later. This feature is expected to redefine audio experience and accessibility.
Traditional hearing aids can be expensive, ranging from $1,000 to over $5,000. Over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids, including AirPods Pro, offer a more affordable and convenient option, starting at $300. These devices come with user-friendly features like Bluetooth connectivity, making them accessible without a prescription.
Initial user feedback on AirPods Pro's hearing aid features varies. Some users appreciate the seamless integration with their devices, while others find comfort issues. Apple's entry into the hearing aid market promises an innovative solution, enhancing sound clarity without the high cost of traditional hearing aids.
AirPods Pro's hearing aid functionality, approved by the FDA, is expected to be released in late 2023. This update offers an accessible and affordable solution for managing hearing loss, with features designed for individuals with mild to moderate hearing loss. The software update will be compatible with iOS 18 or later.
