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:
M3/T3. Reference ANSI C63.19 (2011).
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.
For more information about the actions that
the FCC has taken with regard to hearing aid
compatibility with wireless devices and other steps
that the FCC has taken to ensure that individuals
with disabilities have access to telecommunications
services, visit www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro.
