The Philips HearLink 3010 MNR T R in review

Verschaffen Sie sich über unseren großen Hörgerätevergleich einen Überblick über das Marktgeschehen. Diese Geräte spielen dabei keine Rolle mehr, da sie schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen sind. Wir haben sie deshalb mit einer Abwertung der Gesamtnote versehen.

Could this hearing aid from the Philips program be the right choice for you? In our test report on the HearLink 3010 MNR T R, we highlighted the key aspects. We have a small hearing aid from a price range slightly above average that is worn behind the ear. The direct alignment of the speaker in the ear canal lays the foundation for good hearing success, as the sound has only a very short distance to travel to the eardrum. This ensures that all sounds reach us exactly where we want them.

The HearLink 3010 MNR T R provides adequate amplification for mild to profound hearing losses.

Hearing comfort

What is most bothersome for hearing aid users: Exactly, background noise. That's why we first look at what comfort features the test device includes. The HearLink 3010 MNR T R only has the bare essentials when it comes to hearing comfort. A normal noise suppression function is definitely present. It is supposed to dampen constant sounds like street noise or the hum of the air conditioning. In our test device from Philips, we found a fairly basic type of noise suppression that should suffice for normal environments.

Sudden noises are likely cushioned, but we didn't really notice the effect. This hearing aid can detect wind noise, but the reduction is hardly noticeable. The 10 frequency channels are okay. However, it may be that the programming for individual hearing needs is not entirely precise, and one might have to make some audio compromises. The microphones in the HearLink 3010 MNR T R can be switched to face forward in the direction of view. However, this is the only feature that slightly supports spatial hearing.

An exciting topic in hearing acoustics is the use of artificial intelligence, but this is not yet applied in this Philips model.

Rating Hearing comfort: 4,5

Operation & connectivity

Most hearing aids automatically adjust to their environment. However, it can be very practical to make some changes yourself. After all, the hearing aid does not know how you are feeling at the moment. We looked at the control options offered by the HearLink 3010 MNR T R: A very quick way to adjust the volume is the small button on the device. It is easy to feel, and you can increase or decrease the volume in several steps. Additional programs for specific hearing situations can also be activated with it. If you prefer to do without the button, you can simply have it deactivated. If desired, a remote control for the hearing aid is available. This allows you to effortlessly adjust the volume. Not only is the operation extremely easy, but no one will notice that you are adjusting your hearing aids.

In the test, we found no option for voice control. This function is not necessarily required, but we would have appreciated it. Besides buttons or remote controls, some hearing aids also feature tap control. This means you can simply tap your ear briefly, and the device will switch. However, we do not have this feature at Philips, as it would have required specific sensors.

In the App Store, we also find a suitable application from Philips. The app for the HearLink 3010 MNR T R is not one of our highlights, but it has everything you need for your hearing systems. One of the best features of the hearing aid is the direct streaming function. This turns the hearing aid into a True Wireless headphone and receives phone calls and other sounds directly in your ear. The prerequisite is a compatible smartphone that includes 2.4 GHz technology. The biggest advantage is that you can hear phone calls not only in one ear but in both. Additionally, the sound can be customized to personal preferences.

Rating Operation & connectivity: 2,0

Simplicity & security

An important factor for the acceptance of a hearing aid is its everyday usability. This includes automated functions, as well as robustness and user-friendliness. The situational recognition did not particularly impress us. Quiet and loud environments are identified, and the HearLink 3010 MNR T R adjusts accordingly. However, as soon as the acoustic conditions become more demanding and different noise sources appear simultaneously, one may need to make some adjustments to the hearing aid manually. We give a big plus point for the automatic acclimatization assistant. It gradually raises the starting volume in very small steps until my hearing goal is reached. This significantly eases the adaptation to the new sound.

In our opinion, a highly useful development in recent years is the integrated rechargeable battery. We are used to recharging electronic devices in our daily lives. The HearLink 3010 MNR T R is also rechargeable, allowing us to avoid the hassle of changing batteries.

With an IP 68 certification, the hearing aid can withstand various adverse influences. Dust cannot enter, it can endure prolonged submersion in water, and it is also protected against contact.

Rating Simplicity & security: 1,8

Extras

Before we come to the end, let's take a look at the extras: first, we check for a special tinnitus program. Ear noise is a sensitive topic for many people. However, we found no option for tinnitus relief in the HearLink 3010 MNR T R.

A clever tool is the integrated remote maintenance service. Almost everyone has a smartphone, and time is a precious commodity. Therefore, such a remote maintenance service is absolutely appropriate. If someone needs a new programming of their hearing aids, they can easily contact the audiologist through the app and describe their hearing wishes. Through a cloud service, the professional can then send a customized setting as a data package to the app. From there, it will be loaded onto the hearing aid and can be tried out immediately. This definitely deserves extra points in our test.

There are no sensors in this HearLink 3010 variant, so the popular health tracking cannot be offered. For instance, steps can be counted throughout the day. As mentioned, this hearing aid does not have this function on board. In conjunction with a smartphone, the HearLink 3010 MNR T R surprises us with a few nice lifestyle features. It is definitely worth becoming thoroughly familiar with the app and utilizing the offered assistance programs.

Rating Extras: 2,5

Conclusion: Philips HearLink 3010 MNR T R

Im Gesamtergebnis landet dieses Testgerät auf den hinteren Plätzen und lässt einige Ausstattungsmerkmale vermissen. Wir vergeben die Note 3,64. Für anspruchsarme Hörer ist das in Ordnung, für einen sehr aktiven Lebensstil empfehlen wir allerdings ein Hörgerät mit umfangreicheren Komfortmerkmalen.
