Severe hearing loss descended on me earlier this. Hearing aids don’t help. The Pocketalker is a Godsend.

I order this product for my husband, He is very happy and able to enjoy family, music and television.

We have had the William's Pocketalker for my dad just over a year now and without the Pocketalker he can hear little or nothing, with the $2200 hearing aid he heard sometimes, with the Pocketalker he hears every word clearly.

In addition to increasing volume of TV/Radio, it can be used to trouble-shoot car engine problems, and detect which of multiple speakers in a church are not performing well. It works better that the very old one I inherited, because you have some tone control. Good product!

I purchased an Ultra Pocket Talker on 01-28-2022 for my Mom and received it 2 days later on 01-31-2022. Sooner than expected! The customer service over the phone was very helpful (Evren). It is easy to use and I appreciate you can adjust the tone as well as the volume. Mom is hearing words and our voices better now. A great improvement!

We now have 2 pair of these to watch TV. These cost more, but are worth the difference ( we’ve tried others). Our only problem is the background sound, but not the fault of the aids. We have a big room with hardwood floors. I’m sure all would have the same issue. It would be 5 stars for conversation. Best part of these is the customer service. It was great talking to Page and Melissa. Extremely helpful. I’ll bet the others are great too. Thanks

I had to wait due to a backlog. I am truly grateful to have received my amplifier. There is no other amplifier as this one.

Bought it for a friend thats having a hard time hearing. Works great, He wears it all the time. Its great to be able to talk with him and get an answer.

My father used this in a couple of sessions with physical therapists so he could understand them better. The therapists seemed to think it helped. My father was very ill and passed away before being able to get much use out of the Pocketalker.

Works great for my mother in the nursing home. She had had hearing aids, but for some reason this works better for conversations. Before we bought this, her treatment review wasn't very good, they said she had the beginning of dementia, but I just think she couldn't hear the questions correctly. She is doing much better with this.

Very pleased with the product. My audiologist recommended that I purchase a different headset to eliminate the background noise and I was pleasantly surprised at the noticeable difference it made.

The Pockettalker has allowed my wife to hear with a clarity she has not had in years. She has a low and high-frequency hearing loss but would not admit to having a problem until trying out a Pockettalker. Now she accurately responds to questions instead of answering with anything remotely related to what she 'thought' she heard. Happy wife, happy life!

Very good product but have bought two because first one the left side quit. Second did too. Lasted only year or so each. Thought it was the headphones but tried others to no avail. They all worked fine in other phones **We are sorry about the issues you are having. The Pocketalker comes with a five year warranty, and may be eligible to be fixed or replaced. Please contact us and we would be happy to give you the proper warranty information. - Diglo**

The Pocketalker has brought my husband back into the dinner conversation. He does still have a problem with background noise. The neck loop has helped for some speakers but not all.

Like some others, the head set is not adjustable enough for my head. However, this is my second pocket talker and I knew what to do. Get some foam stick-on window insulation, very cheap, and cut a strip and stick in on the inside of the head set. It keeps the thing from slipping. When it wears out, put on a new strip. One package could last for years.

In a car it works well if the speaker wears the main unit with the mic plugged directly into it and the hearer plugs the headphones into it also. The headphone cord is just long enough to work that way. If we used the long TV extension cord with the mic plugged into it and worn by the speaker while the hearer controls the main unit it picked up a lot of annoying interference, clicking noises. The most annoying thing about it is the pocket clip that holds the main unit on your pocket or collar. It is very hard to depress. I was afraid I would break the attached mic trying to depress the clip enough to get it on my collar.

Purchased for elderly female relative who's hearing aid was broken ... functioned well in direct conversations but ear-bud totally unsatisfactorily ... wouldn't hold in ear and provided earphones "muss hair" ... searching for a satisfactory ear peace but otherwise hearing enhancement is excellent!

I purchased this product for my father who is 90 years old, has Alzheimer's disease and lives in a facility on a "memory care' unit. He is severely hearing impaired; his hearing aids disappeared. A couple of years ago I took him to an audiologist for an evaluation and was advised that while she would LOVE to sell me an $8k set of hearing aids, she was doubtful they would be of any great use. Communication became a huge problem and impeded delivery of care each day. I took a chance, thinking what the hell - if it doesn't work, I will return it (this company has a VERY reasonable return policy). I took the unit to him and used the headphones rather than the earbuds - and the outcome was nothing short of amazing. This set works better than his hearing aids EVER did. I regret that I did not make this purchase sooner. It is a great value, and has made an incredible improvement in my father's daily life. Thanks so much for making this product.

This is the best solution I've found so far for being able to have some communication with my husband, who has only minimal hearing in one ear. The smile on his face when he can hear me again is deeply rewarding. He now lives in a care facility, meaning that a couple thousand worth of hearing aids have disappeared (he has dementia, so can't keep track of things himself any longer.) I carry the pocket talker with me when I visit him. Being able to adjust BOTH volume and tone is huge plus. The drawbacks are; having to depend on his feedback to get the volume and tone adjusted, and, of course, being tethered by the cord.

My wife has Parkinson's and speaks in a whisper sometimes. This device lets me understand most everything she says.

Hearing aids no longer helped my 91 year old mother. This amplifier is amazing. She can hear me with it only set on 3! We went to the doctor today, and he was so pleased to be able to talk to her again. He spoke into the microphone and said, "I knew you were still in there!!" Mom laughed out loud. He has a lot of senior patients and wrote down the Diglo/product info so he can refer them. We can actually sit and visit again, and I no longer get hoarse yelling at the top of my lungs. It has given mom some quality of life again and has made life easier for me too. Thanks so much from my mom - and from me.

My friend David loves this product - he is in a nursing home and unable to manage regular hearing aids, so this is very easy for him to use and has improved his life by making it easier to communicate with his aides and the other residents.

I got it to understand people who speak at meetings, almost always one at a time.. It works fine for that purpose. I wouldn't recommend it for venues where there is a lot of background noise like restaurants.

Works well for what I bought it for.

Bought this for an elderly friend who's hard of hearing and can't wear anything in his ears. This product has done the job to help him hear what's going on.

Compact, but very powerful. Ear bud works well, but headset doesn't adjust to fit my mom's head. Great value for the price.

This unit is unbelievable compared to other more inferior units that are available. This was bought for my 91 year old Aunt with hearing issues. The hearing center wanted her business for a pair of $5000 hearing aides. Of course she was profoundly deaf. She is not profoundly deaf but significantly. With this product she can just about do anything a hearing aid can but a hell of a lot cheaper. The durability of this product is obvious in the exterior packing of the unit. the headset is good quality as well as the hearing single piece. Both of which can be purchased anywhere reasonably when they wear out or eventually break. My Aunt likes the options of a hang around the neck lanyard strap and a belt clip, which is durable and secure on your belt. The flashing red light that faces her from below makes her aware its time to eventually replace batteries. There is a "tone" adjustment which basically enhances the tones of frequency loss you may experience. My Aunt , which was told she was profoundly deaf by a hearing store, has her volume set on the device at 3.( 10 maximum). She obviously is not profoundly deaf and certainly has more room to grow to accommodate more hearing loss over time.. My Aunt is a very humble, intelligent, and social person. This device is so perfect for her hearing loss, her humility to wear (display) such a device does not bother her in the least. ( It is quite a snappy looking device I must admit, much smaller than a pack of cigarettes. The AA batteries ,we are watching their usage at this point in time thinking we will probably have to get into rechargeable AA at some point in time as at an approximate recharge rate of 700-1000 times , well you do the math. The rechargeable will not last as long as the alkaline but having a second set charging is the smartest thing to do to prevent having no battery power, ever. This has been one week since my Aunt has been using the device and will not part at all with it. The smile on her face and reaction wh

I have genetic hearing loss and have tried 2 different hearing aids with very poor results. This device helps a great deal and doesn't amplify background noise nearly as much!

Personally did not feel it was worth the money that it cost. Did not amplify sound as much as I expected and picked up every movement on the microphone causing more noise.

Dad is still months away from getting his new hearing aids and this makes an excellent bridge to that. No more yelling or repeating ourselves

We spend several weeks and $3000 researching hearing aids and doctors. They came out, did a special fitting and weeks later mounted the hearing aids. They didn't work. Mom couldn't hear any better. No one told us this would be a possibility. Our previous method was to call mom from our cell phones, while sitting in her room, because her phone was very amplified. This got me searching on the internet for a device that would simply amplify sounds. The Pocketalker does just that...with a control for volume and one for tones. I'm sure everyone's hearing situation is different but, for my mom, she went from hearing no one to hearing the nurses, us, her activities program...everything, in just minutes. $175 vs $3,000....you do the math!

I purchased this product for my mother who is unable to properly service her hearing aids. The amplifier works very well; however, the headset has very little tension or any ability to be adjusted. In my mother's case the headset keeps sliding off her ears.

This remarkable product completely solved communication issues with my 90 year old mother who lives with us. We no longer have to yell, spell, or have her upset, thinking we said something we didn't say, or have her upset for thinking we ignored her when she hadn't heard us speaking to her (she can no longer see to read our lips), or upset when we yelled for her to hear when she asked us to speak up and not mumble! She no longer has to pretend that she heard her visitors conversation because now she can! She is happier and we are too. This product saved our family's sanity!!

I purchased this item for m husband who has a hearing problem. He just started using it and so far it seem to be very helpful to his hearing. I am hoping that He will enjoy it around the family and be able to hear them when they speak to Him. Glad to have purchased this item and will recommend it to people I know. Thank you for your great delivery service. Rose

Highly recommend product and service
