Starkey Axio 6 BTE Hearing Aid

The Starkey Axio 6 BTE is a dependable hearing aid from Starkey, a trusted American hearing technology company since 1967. This Behind-the-Ear (BTE) model rests comfortably over the ear with a tube and earpiece, designed to support mild to severe hearing loss (up to 90–100 dB). First released around 2014–2015 as part of the Axio series, the Axio 6 is a mid-tier option powered by a Size 13 zinc-air battery—straightforward and long-lasting, with no need for recharging. Featuring 6 channels of digital processing and essential features, it’s an excellent choice in Bangladesh for anyone seeking clear hearing at an affordable price.

The Starkey Axio 6 BTE comes with:

• 6 sound channels for more precise tuning—like an equalizer for your hearing.

• Feedback Canceller to reduce whistling and squeals.

• Voice iQ noise reduction for clearer speech.

• Automatic directionality to focus on sounds in front of you.

• Up to 4 programmable memories for different environments (home, outdoors, etc.).

Why Choose Starkey Axio 6 BTE?

If you’re looking for a solid, mid-level hearing aid that balances performance and cost, the Axio 6 is a smart pick. Its sturdy BTE design works well for daily use and suits a wide range of hearing loss. Compared to the Axio i4 (with 4 channels), the Axio 6 adds better noise management and improved clarity. The Size 13 battery lasts 7–10 days, and its IP57 durability makes it a great fit for Bangladesh’s humid and dusty conditions.
