phone to determine probable usability:
ⅷ
Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers best use.
ⅷ
Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.
ⅷ
Any combined rating equal to four is considred usable.
Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M3 phone, you will have a
combined rating of six for “best use.”
Sprint further suggests you experiment with multiple phones (even
those not labeled M3 or M4) while in the store to find the one that works
best with your hearing aid device. Should you experience interference
after purchasing your phone, promptly return it to the store. With the
Sprint 14-day Risk-Free Guarantee you may return the phone within
14 days of purchase for a full refund.
