Muse iQ Rechargeable was announced January 4 at Starkey’s Hearing Innovation Expo in Las Vegas and is now available to consumers through Starkey’s vast global network of hearing professionals and audiologists.
Designed for modern ease and convenience, the new Muse iQ Rechargeable 900sync™ technology-enabled wireless hearing aid is Starkey’s smallest over-the-ear hearing aid to date providing high-definition sound, clarity and presence.
Built on Starkey’s award-winning Synergy® platform and revolutionary Acuity™ OS operating system, the Muse iQ Rechargeable offers best-in-class features including:
- 30 hours of use with streaming
