Wireless headphones will now not only help you hide from the noise around you, but will also help people with hearing problems hear better.
The recently released model has been officially recognized as a hearing aid. The result was announced by the US Food and Drug Administration. The press release states that the Apple AirPods Pro 2 headphones are a full-fledged hearing aid.
It’s all about the Hearing Aid Feature, the first approved over-the-counter solution for people with hearing loss. The FDA has confirmed that the headphones can amplify sounds, which is especially helpful for people with mild to moderate hearing loss. It’s a step toward increasing the availability of hearing aids for the hearing impaired, CBS News reported.
In Russia, such a gadget can cost about 23 thousand rubles. For the first time, company representatives mentioned the Hearing Aid Feature on September 9, 2024 at an event dedicated to the announcement of the new iPhone 16, Apple Watch Series 10 and AirPods 4 models.
