Hearing aids and implants with Auracast function (status 31 August 2026)

Summary

A one-page table of 27 hearing aid, cochlear implant and bone-conduction product lines from six manufacturer groups, giving each line's Auracast status and telecoil availability.

Key findings

• Of 27 entries, 20 are listed as Auracast capable and 7 as "ready", including all three cochlear implant processors listed (Cochlear Nucleus Nexa, Nucleus 8 and Kanso 3). For two of the ready lines an update is expected in 2027.
• The two bone-conduction implants listed, Cochlear Baha 7 and Osia 3, are marked Auracast capable.
• Telecoil availability varies: three capable or ready lines have no telecoil, several have one only in some models or styles, and the two bone-conduction implants listed have telecoil access only with an accessory.
• At least four capable lines are listed with a telecoil, and several ready lines also have one.
• Lists Nucleus Nexa, Nucleus 8 and Kanso 3 each with a telecoil ("Telefonspule: Ja").
• In the one-page table's Phonak rows, EON series is capable and Infinio series is ready, with an update expected in 2027. Both rows say no telecoil; the series' individual styles are not enumerated.
• The Oticon rows mark Intent series, Zeal and Reveal capable; Intent and Reveal have telecoil yes, while Zeal has telecoil no. Philips Hearing Solutions HearLink 9050 and Bernafon Encanta are marked capable with telecoil yes. These are line-level assertions without a style breakdown.
• Signia IX is ready for some models, with telecoils in models bearing T in the name. Signia MaX is ready with a March 2027 update expected and telecoil yes. Widex Allure series is ready with telecoil yes.
• ReSound Nexia, Sensia, Vivia, Savi and Enzo IA, and Beltone Serene, Envision, Commence and Illuminate are marked capable, with telecoil availability depending on model. Jabra Enhance is marked capable for some models, also with telecoil depending on model.
• The Starkey Omega and Edge rows are marked capable, with telecoil only in RIC RT or through an accessory. Promotional suffixes are omitted here. The table does not enumerate other styles.
• Baha 7 and Osia 3 are categorized as bone-conduction implants, with telecoil access through an accessory. The table gives no accessory model or firmware version. Its Nucleus Nexa cochlear-implant entry gives no processor-style breakdown.

Limits

A status list, not a performance test. It states that the details are given without warranty, it does not define "ready", and status changes with firmware updates.
