Federal regulations require each cellular manufacturer to offer at least one model of phone that is “hearing aid compatible”. This means that it will work with hearing aids that are equipped with a telecoil (T-coil, T-switch). Ask your cellular phone provider for a list of the “hearing aid compatible” phones they offer. Another good source for cell phone reports from the perspective of hard of hearing people is http://www.hearingloss-wa.org/telecommunications.htm. FYI: Large display screens may cause a “buzzing” interference even if the phone itself is hearing aid compatible.
