MINNEAPOLIS, January 5, 2016 – Starkey Hearing Technologies is honored to announce that on December 28, 2015 we were named a “Best of 2015” by PSFK for our Halo™ Made for iPhone® hearing aids.

Halo was honored for its innovative design, technological advances and intent for social improvement through smartphone and smartwatch connectivity capabilities. PSFK highlighted Halo’s ability to connect with Apple Watch® and describes the hearing aid as “wireless hearing tech [that] will let those with hearing loss go about their day stigma-free.”

“Halo has become one of the premier wearables on the market,” said Dave Fabry, Vice President of Audiology and Professional Relations at Starkey Hearing Technologies. “Halo’s connectivity with smartphone and smartwatch technology has made it a wearable consumers want, a technical gadget that gives users better hearing and unprecedented flexibility, control and offers both utilitarian and entertainment capabilities.”
