It can help to listen to TV, and mobile phone sound clearly while other hearing aids can’t do it. In the market, hearing-disabled people can only find some normal wireless headphones for watching TV or listening to mobile phones the worst thing is that it will make their hearing ability worse and worse by only adjusting the volume louder for a long time.
