Beltone Envision hearing aids use intelligent technology designed to help you hear in noisy places. The artificial intelligence inside Envision microRIE hearing aids is trained to recognize and reduce thousands of everyday noises and highlight the sounds and voices you want to hear.

The microRIE has a gently curved shape that rests low on the ear. On microRIE models you can answer hands-free calls on compatible devices by double-tapping your ear.

Envision RIE is smaller than Beltone’s earlier RIE models, with a streamlined design, and uses replaceable batteries. Both Envision styles can pair with the CROS/BiCROS transmitter, an option for single-sided deafness.

Beltone Commence™

Commence

Beltone Commence hearing aids use technology designed to adapt to your environment and support speech understanding in noise.

Commence comes in miniRIE and RIE styles that sit behind the ear, and custom In-the-Canal (ITC) and Completely-in-Canal (CIC) styles. The miniRIE is rechargeable; the RIE, ITC and CIC use replaceable batteries. Beltone describes the CIC as custom-molded for a more comfortable and secure fit.

Hands-free calls are available on Commence RIE and miniRIE models. Auracast and the HearMax app are not available on Commence CIC.

Everyday features

What Envision and Commence can do

Calls and streaming

Stream calls and audio from compatible iPhone, iPad and Android devices (Beltone doesn’t list Bluetooth for Commence CIC). Hands-free calls depend on the model.

Auracast™ broadcast audio

Where a venue, TV or public space offers an Auracast broadcast, stream it directly to your hearing aids (not available on Commence CIC).

Weatherproof and sweatproof

A durable, all-over coating makes Envision and Commence weatherproof and sweatproof.

TV and accessories

Beltone lists the TV-Streamer+ and Multi-Mic+ as compatible with Envision and Commence. The Multi-Mic+ is not compatible with CIC models, so ask us which accessories suit your style.
