TYPES OF HEARING AIDS

DIFFERENT STYLES OF HEARING AIDS

Receiver-in-Canal (RIC) Hearing Aids - The All Rounder

​

Modern receiver-in-canal hearing aids are compact, smart, and made for everyday use. They automatically adapt to your environment, offer Bluetooth streaming for calls or music, and sit comfortably behind the ear.

​

Best for: People who want clear sound in all settings without adjusting controls.
Brighter Ears tip: Even our free hearing aid range includes sleek RIC designs — modern, discreet, and almost invisible to the eye.

​

Completely-in-Canal (CIC) Hearing Aids - The Hidden Hero

​

These invisible hearing aids sit deep inside your ear canal for a natural, subtle look. Despite their size, they deliver impressive sound quality and help you stay connected with the world around you.

Best for: Those who prefer a minimalist, invisible hearing aid style.
Brighter Ears tip: At Brighter Ears, small doesn’t mean expensive — even discreet CIC models can be fully subsidised for eligible clients.

​

Behind-the-Ear (BTE) Hearing Aids - The Reliable Performer

​

Behind-the-ear hearing aids remain a trusted choice for many. They’re durable, powerful, and easy to handle — ideal for those who need more amplification or find smaller aids difficult to manage.

​

Best for: People with greater hearing loss or reduced dexterity.
Brighter Ears tip: We recommend this style for anyone who prefers manual control, larger buttons, and simple cleaning.

​

In-the-Ear (ITE) Hearing Aids - The Balanced Companion

​

Custom-made to fit comfortably in your ear, in-the-ear hearing aids strike a perfect balance between power and convenience. They’re easy to insert, comfortable to wear, and suitable for a wide range of hearing needs.

​

Best for: Those who want both comfort and straightforward control.
Brighter Ears tip: Our locally made ITE fittings are adjusted until they feel just right.

​​

Rechargeable Hearing Aids - The Always Ready

​

No more fiddling with batteries. Rechargeable hearing aids charge overnight and keep you going all day. They’re ideal for busy people or anyone with limited hand mobility.

Best for: Those who value simplicity and reliability.
Brighter Ears tip: All rechargeable models at Brighter Ears include extended warranty and full service support, so you’re never left guessing.

​

Bluetooth-Connected Hearing Aids - The Connected Communicator

​

Stay linked to your devices with Bluetooth hearing aids that stream phone calls, TV, and music directly into your ears. Connectivity now comes standard — no premium upgrade required.

Best for: Tech-savvy users or anyone who enjoys seamless communication.
Brighter Ears tip: At Brighter Ears, Bluetooth streaming is included in most models, even our no-gap options.
