This smartphone has been tested and rated for use with hearing
aids for some of the wireless technologies that the smartphone
uses. However, other wireless technologies may be used in this
smartphone that have not been tested for use with hearing aids.
It is important to try the different features of your smartphone
thoroughly and in different locations to determine if you hear any
interfering noise when using this smartphone with your hearing aid
or cochlear implant. Consult your wireless service provider about its
return and exchange policies, and for information about hearing aid
compatibility.
Hearing aid compatibility rating for this smartphone: M4/T3.
How the ratings work
M-Ratings: Wireless devices rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements
and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than
wireless devices that are not labeled. M4 is the better or higher of
the two ratings.
T-Ratings: Wireless devices rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements
and are likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T
Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated wireless devices. T4
is the better or higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing
devices have telecoils in them.)
Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of
interference. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health
professional may help you find results for your hearing device.
The more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely you are to
experience interference noise from wireless devices.

with regard to hearing aid compatibility with wireless devices and
