Your questions answered

  • What if the device doesn’t fit my ear?
    Your hearing aid will arrive with pre-installed size S (small) click sleeves. If those aren’t comfortable, try changing to one of the other three sizes provided (XS, M, L). Choose a smaller size if the hearing aid is pressing on your ear. Choose a larger size if the hearing aid feels loose or makes a whistling noise. Also, note that your left and right ear may be slightly different sizes, so feel free to use different size sleeves in each ear. To learn how to change the click sleeves, check the Product user guide.
  • What’s the estimated battery life?

    The CRE-C10s have an estimated battery life of up to 70 hours.

  • Do these hearing aids pair with my smartphone so that I can answer calls, listen to music?

    The CRE-C10 model does not support audio streaming and phone calls. The CRE-E10 model however supports both audio streaming and phone calls.

  • Is the price shown for a pair or just one?

    That price is for a pair.  These hearing aids are only sold as pairs.

  • Can I wear devices in the pool or shower?

    Like most hearing aids, the Sony CRE-C10 isn’t waterproof, so you should
    take it out before you shower or go swimming.

  • What if the hearing aids don’t fit my ear?

    Your hearing aid will arrive with pre-installed size S (small) click sleeves. If
    those aren’t comfortable, try changing to one of the other three sizes
    provided (XS, M, L). Choose a smaller size if the hearing aid is pressing on
    your ear. Choose a larger size if the hearing aid feels loose or makes a
    whistling noise.
