    Advice Needed - Adjusting To Has With Severe Sound Sensitivity.

    Has your audiologist suggested ear molds with no vent and then a hearing aid with as many channels as possible? Full ear molds with no vent would block outside noises more, and then you would get more sound from the hearing aids. If you had a hearing aid with 16 or so channels to adjust, the...

    Where Is Deaf And Hard Of Hearing?!

    I was just in Austin a few weeks ago for work and I found that they have a deaf club there. On Facebook search for "Austin Deaf Club" and it should come right up. I imagine you could ask them questions about the community there.

    Best Deaf Cell Phones? Samsung Galaxy Note II is one!

    Perfect! It looks like those are stereo only with no microphone, so when you plug them in they will disable the speaker on the phone, but not the mic. Have you tried holding the phone up to near your mouth when you talk using the cables? If you already knew all that, sorry, I have talked to...

    Best Deaf Cell Phones? Samsung Galaxy Note II is one!

    Don't bother reading the rest of this if you're deaf, it only applies if you are HI... I've been doing some testing and I found the Note 4 is louder than the Moto X or the S5. The Note 4 was able to put out 111db from the earpiece! Samsung also has "Adapt Sound" on the Note 4 and a volume...

    IPHONE vs SAMSUNG

    I prefer iPhone for the operating system, but Apple is making me switch to Android :( My answer to which I prefer is iPhone, but if you are hearing impaired, and still can talk with the handset to your ear, my answer is Samsung Galaxy Note 4. Since the iPhone 5, Apple has dropped the...
