COM-DEX compatible Bluetooth phone - fizzypop - 08-28-2019 02:33 PM
I wear a hearing aid and I am looking to replace my voip office phone. I would really like to utilize the bluetooth option to stream my calls to my hearing aid, which makes phone use so much easier. so im looking to see if anyone can suggest a model which will interface with my hearing aid.
I wear Widex Evoke 440 BTE (high end) and have been using a COM-DEX to stream from my computer and iPad to my hearing aid. The hearing aid streams directly to my iPhone without any interface hardware.
Since I need to replace my office phone I thought it would be awesome to find a phone compatible with my hearing aid's blue tooth via my COM-DEX. Unfortunately Widex does not list which VOIP phones are compatible, but do agree that it would be compatible with many systems as long as they had the same Bluetooth specifications.
Does anyone have any experience with connecting a com-Dex to any Yealink phone?
Does anyone know if the specifications Widex have provided me (below) would at the vary least narrow down which models might be compatible? Ive attached the spec sheet just in case it is easier to review the specs this way.
many thanks folks!

The T53W, T54W and T57W all have bluetooth built in so they should function the same way your IPhone does in that they will pair directly with the hearing aid, no need for the additional COM-DEX unit.
I doubt anyone at Yealink has done any testing of this type of application to confirm so you probably won't get any official answers. Most likely you're going to have to buy a phone and try it out yourself.
