As a person who is hard of hearing and wears hearing aids in both ears, this video was really special. Thanks for taking the time to be educated and/or educate everyone on this accommodation.
Thank you for making this video. As a deaf person this is a great video well done! As someone who uses MFi on a daily basis, it’s great to be able to listen to music or podcasts without wearing big bulky headphones. Thank you once again for making this video.
@@baherumolla hi, so sorry to hear this, and i think you should visit any audiologist and tell them you would like to get cochlear, this is how to start getting process to get cochlear implants.
That's amazing! That's some James Bond style stuff with the mini-mic and the ability to mute excess background noise during phone calls. Excellent showcase Harris!
I have been wearing the nucleus 5 for roughly 13 years, my processor was now discontinued and am in the process of being upgraded to the N7. I get programmed next week and am very excited to use this amazing new technology that cochlear americas has come up with.
It is actually a Australian company and originated in my country, Australia. We may be living upside down and many people think we are fake but, free healthcare and this credible invention that I use. Amazing.
And also my grandpa got one within the last 2 years and I appreciate you putting content out informing others about this technology because it really improved his life after getting one😁
I love this. My 13 year old sister has had 2 implants for 11 years and her life is so much different than I would have been. I know so much about all this tech and it’s almost a part of my life and Cannot wait for the newest gen with all this new tech to come available.
I have found that since the interface with my iPhone came along if I'm out with friends in a noisy environment I have become the go to if we need to phone for a taxi.
Why do you need a tech reviewer if you don't need them plus they don't know what it's like to have them, To be honest though I'd rather have them than not it's just nice to be able to turn off your hearing, makes sleep so much easier, just a tip though, don't watch a video of what the doctor does
@@deafsquid6978 You don't seem to realize that sunglasses and glasses are medical devices as well as some contact lenses. Not all medical "devices" are electronic. Sooner or later these concepts will become part of future forms of communication whether they are for medical use or not.
Wow. That was informative! I enjoyed learning about the implants. There are so many people affected by hearing loss and it's great to see these options for them. Thanks Harris!
This is super informative Harris! I am familiar with this technology. A national radio host of whom I have followed several years had them when they came out. Apparently they have become quite popular! Excellent content! Hope you are enjoying your Holiday break still! Mark in Iowa.
It's cool for iPhone users. But when are you guys gonna get it set up on android? I hate I phones and prefer android. So much more people will get the help they need if it's both iPhone and android.
@@vanessabranch1631 I have the Nucleus 7 and it connects straight to my iPhone but it will work with a android phone but you need a phone adapter to connect the two.
Is latency an issue when using your phone as a remote microphone, which is to say, is there any delay between when you _hear_ a given individual's voice and when you _see_ that individual's corresponding physical communication, i.e. their mouth moving, their expressions, their gestures and movements, etc.?
I wear hearing aids now, and are able to hear as well. But right now, my doctor recommended me a cochlear implant, might do the surgery this year as my hearing condition suddenly got worse but Idk when...wish me luck
Hello, I have 52% hearing loss, I have not had a cochlear implant yet. It will be in 2 months and I want to ask a question. Can we easily hear game sounds and communication while playing FPS games with a cochlear implant?
I hope med-el won't do true wireless only iphone it makes me so mad that deaf users without iphones are forced to use iphones to be able to wirelessy hear to music.
Golly Havant they come on a long way. I have Bluetooth hearing aids and they work with my iPhone. But hearing this guy talking you wouldn’t know he is hearing impaired.
@@ubahhussein206 Minor side effects that I got straight after surgery was mild vertigo and or dizziness which went away after a week because your head is getting used to the new implant, as an adult you have to do some balance tests because when the implant goes in, it's quite near the inner ear where your balance is controlled, it can be affected a bit, so the test is to see if you have really good stable balance, if you had dizziness and vertigo issues beforehand you won't pass and you don't get an implant. Also you always start with a very weak magnet so it won't hurt, starting with a strong one will be painful, your skin will get used to the magnet and become tough, over time the magnet will get too weak and you can apply a stronger one, there are time in which it can be itchy or a little sore but over time as the skin gets used to it you won't feel a thing. I didn't feel nauseous, just really hungry especially after being on a table for six hours. These are the only major side effects after surgery.
@@KazukiMatsuoka thank bro now how is feeling ? Any pain or side effects, how many year it works, if you have damage or hearing loss cl ?cause eyes pain or not , my hearing is moderately and eye sight is weak also and doctor sayings you need cochlear implant ?
Please you can help me I have this disease the doctor we say that they will do me operations but the money we ask 33 thousand dollars please my parents we no money it's been 7 years since I don't listen I'm looking for someone who can help me for the love of gods
I deaf and have two chochlear implants and it would be interesting in the deaf community and who use chochlear implants on what type of phone is useful for chochlear users like me I use iPhone not to phone people but because of easy access and iMessage FaceTime ect but chochlear are falling behind like most phones now are headphones wireless like iPhone has AirPods and is chochlear users can’t use them hopefully chochlear will upgrade like iPhone are. Any one else in same situation as me as on NHS it’s six years for each update on chochlear in UK. Thankful next year I due updated but it’s too long phones are updating all the time.
I just learned that the "deaf community" is aganst these implants. I'm so tired of human beings. How can you choose to live without hearing!? If something can help you live a more free life, why not!? I expect you can't have practically any normal job as a deaf person.
