The premium technology specification
Starkey Evolv AI 2400 Hearing Aids - An introduction to the range
This Starkey hearing aid launched towards the end of January 2022 and superseded the Livio AI hearing aid range. Comprising of innovative hearing technology, connectivity and personalisation - these hearing aids are created to adapt to your needs and lifestyle.
However, the main goal here for Starkey Evolv AI hearing aids was to start a completely new hearing ecosystem that focuses on both hearing loss' impact on our general health and wellness, whilst combating hearing challenges for a better user and listening experience. This is something Starkey have said they will keep on redefining in the years to come.
This evolved innovative philosophy of this new platform also comes hand in hand with the introduction of the market's smallest CIC (with 2.4 GHz). So along with their most powerful BTE Power Plus model - the Starkey Evolv AI hearing aid range offers a complete family of devices that caters from mild to severe hearing loss.
Now there is more freedom, as you can choose from five performance levels and styles of devices - whether you want the discretion of an IIC or the power boost you need with their power BTE. This range also includes rechargeable RIC, CIC, IIC and custom ITE form factors.
Starkey Evolv AI 2400 hearing aids - What models are available in this range?
ITE styles: IIC Non-Wireless, CIC Non-Wireless, ITC R and ITE R (Bluetooth CIC to be launched in the UK later this year)
BTE styles: micro RIC 312, RIC 312, RIC R, BTE R, BTE 13 and PP BTE 13.
Starkey Evolv AI 2400 hearing aids - The sound and connectivity
The Starkey Evolv AI 2400 hearing aid is the top or premium technology level in this range and offers a full feature specification. This means you will benefit from more filters and programs and the most processing channels that will give you a great level of sound quality in all listening environments.
For example, you can enjoy a better listening experience at outdoor events, in busy restaurants, at live concerts, in social gatherings and more. This Starkey Sound is based on science algorithms that is modelled by your brain's auditory system - giving you optimum sound.
But, what does this actually mean? How can it help you and your hearing? Your brain naturally tries to supress background noise and increase speech automatically. Because Evolv AI mirrors this with the intelligence of machine learning (a very smart artificial intelligence technology) - you gain from a high quality filtered sound experience.
This hearing aid launch also offers you Starkey's most advanced connectivity to date with better connection, an improved Android connectivity to allow for greater sound, better audio streaming and the freedom to explore their accessories range.
Look forward to:
- Around 40% noise reduction when compared to Starkey’s previous technology - Livio AI.
- A more refined and improved Edge Mode.
- Both Fall Alert and Voice Reminders are now available in all performance levels, so everyone can benefit from these handy features.
- A better Thrive app with more enhancements to tap into that will personsalise your sound even more.
- The introduction of TeleHear. More on this below.

Starkey Evolv AI Hearing Aids Range
AI Powered Hearing Aids
The Starkey Evolv AI hearing aid range launched towards the end of January 2022 - making this family their new flagship product. This range also supersedes the Starkey Livio AI hearing aid range.
Evolv AI was designed to give wearers a complete device range to suit everyone, including a wireless CIC style hearing aid and four technology levels. The BTE styles and custom products are available in both traditional and rechargeable battery options.
Along with advanced hearing technology, connectivity and adaptable personalisation you can also benefit from advanced automation. Starkey Evolv AI has the potential to enhance your hearing health and overall wellness. But, what are the main features and benefits of Evolv AI? Let's find out...
Starkey Evolv AI Hearing Aids - Developing their wellness approach
This 'healthable' concept was first seen in Starkey's 2018 Livio AI hearing aid range, now Evolv AI's predecessor, and since then they have developed this wellness approach. But, how does this help with your hearing and overall health?
This wellness approach reflects the continued research and development of the impacts hearing loss has on overall health. If we put this into perspective, even older adults with mild hearing loss are almost tripling the risk of having a fall. Unfortunately, statistics show that hearing loss can result in depression, cognitive decline and social withdrawal.
The healthable technology within Evolv AI tackles these issues by helping those with hearing loss to simply hear better as well as offering the tools to put social stimulation and other activity goals in place.
Starkey holistic approach to better hearing helps:
- Mental Health: Keeps us sharp, our brains active and stimulated.
- Physical Health: Maintains a steady active lifestyle.
- Relationships: Keeps us connected to those we love.
Main Features of Starkey Evolv AI Hearing Aids
What's new, what's stayed and what's better?
Motion sensors are still a predominant feature
Starkey Evolv AI digital hearing aids, like those of the superseded Livio AI hearing aids, include motion sensors used to track and store data of your device usage and your actual movement. This technology is smart enough to know when you have fallen and alerts someone out of your designated contact list of the accident and provides a GPS location.
There are other built in features within the device and the mobile app, like remote hearing care and language translations services, but what are the main improvements of the Evolv AI when compared to that of the Livio AI?
Starkey Evolv AI hearing aids vs Livio AI
- Faster connection and pairing to all wireless Bluetooth devices.
- A better 'Edge mode', but it is only available in the top three technology levels.
- New wireless CIC style hearing aid.
- Fall Alert is now available in all the technology levels.
- An improved Thrive Hearing Control app.
- Greater range of styles - both ITE and BTE.
- In-built reminders now available in all technology levels.
- Starkey have also stated that there is 40% more noise reduction when compared to Livio AI.
- Includes Starkey's new 2-Way Audio, "Find my hearing aids", hearing aid self-check and Telehear - more on these later.
Starkey Evolv AI Hearing Aid's Edge Mode
As we stated above, this feature has been improved upon since its predecessor. It offers problem solving adjustments in real-time, based on the listening environment you are in. How does this feature benefit you?
Adjustments such as more gain or successful noise reduction ultimately leads to better clarity and comfort in sound. We think this would be ideal in challenging environments on the go. It is also conveniently fixed in this personalised setting until you manually change the settings or restart your hearing aids.
Starkey Evolv AI Hearing Aids
A brief breakdown of features
Thrive Hearing Control - Compatible with both Android and iPhone mobiles
This is the mobile app that offers various settings and controls to make your hearing experience easier and more personable. It also includes data about your hearing aids and how you use them as well as the ability to control volume, programs and equalisers.
The app itself scores your wellness everyday based on your personal data out of 200. The engagement score is broken down into hourly use, social interaction and environment. To simplify this, if you find yourself in listening environments that are more challenging rather than quieter soundscapes during the day your wellness score will be higher.
The activity score is based on how often you stand, exercise and how many steps you have taken in your day. There are obvious manipulations here, as not everyone can reach the default goal of 10,000 steps a day!
Why would this benefit you? The main purpose of this app is to help you understand your activity and engagement better. Setting your own wellness goals helps you to socialise more, be more active and keep your brain sharp.
TeleHear: This is Starkey Evolv AI's remote fitting support within the Thrive app. Using this you can book an appointment with your audiologist and partake in a remote video in the comfort of your own home. Ideal if the logistics of getting to audiology appointments is an issue.
Thrive Assistant: Use this feature in the Thrive app to set reminders, find your phone, change programs and more - your very own digital PA! If you have a cloud account, you can also use it like you would Siri and Alexa and ask questions and search.
Translate: You can choose a language to translate. Ideal if you travel a lot or need translation resources for business trips, as there are around twenty seven languages available to access. This is only available with the top technology level.
Connectivity and Streaming: Whatever style you choose from, the Evolv AI hearing aid range will connect with iOS and Android devices and mobiles. However, if you have an older smartphone, you might need an accessory. The Thrive Hearing Control app runs on all versions of iOS 14 or 15 and for Android 7.0 and higher.
2-Way Audio: With the Starkey Evolv AI hearing aids - the microphones pick up your voice and streams it directly back to your smartphone for true hands free calls without accessories. This is only available with iPhones and iPads, not Android devices.
Tap Control: This gives you more control of your hearing aids with just a double tap of your fingers. You can stop/start/pause streaming, initiate voice commands in the top three technology levels, as well as accessing the Edge Mode - in just the top performance level. However, you can't answer or reject calls from this feature.

What's included in our hearing aid prices?
If you are looking at this page then it is likely that an audiologist has suggested that you purchase this particular hearing aid, so is this the best model for you?
In general, any audiologist will always be recommending to you the model that best suits your needs. Here is a useful check list to make sure that is the case.
- Audiologist level of knowledge. The audiologist you have seen will hopefully have a wide knowledge of all available hearing aids, however some will only be familiar with a small number of brands and therefore may not really be in a position to know which model is the best for you. It is OK to challenge their recommendation and ask them to justify why this particular brand is the one for you.
- Do research. Read about the hearing aid that was recommended. Does it seem like it will suit your lifestyle? Does it have more or less features than you need?
- Be aware of sales targets. Many high street retailers have specific tie-ins to a particular manufacturer/brand. The hearing aid they have suggested may still be the correct one for you, but do your research so that you know why they might have recommended it.
If in doubt, feel free to give us a call. That's what we're here for.
If you have a significant hearing loss in both ears, you should be wearing two hearing aids. Here are the audiological reasons why:
Localisation. The brain decodes information from both ears and compares and contrasts them. By analysing the miniscule time delays as well as the difference in loudness of each sound reaching the ears, the person is able to accurately locate a sound source. Simply put, if you have better hearing on one side than the other, you can't accurately tell what direction sounds are coming from.
Less amplification required. A phenomena known as “binaural summation” means that the hearing aids can be set at a lower and more natural volume setting than than if you wore only one hearing aid.
Head shadow effect. High frequencies, the part of your hearing that gives clarity and meaning to speech sounds, cannot bend around your head. Only low frequencies can. Therefore if someone is talking on your unaided side you are likely to hear that they are speaking, but be unable to tell what they have said.
Noise reduction. The brain has it’s own built in noise reduction which is only really effective when it is receiving information from both ears. If only one ear is aided, even with the best hearing aid in the world, it will be difficult for you to hear in background noise as your brain is trying to retain all of the sounds (including background noise) rather than filtering it out.
Sound quality. We are designed to hear in stereo. Only hearing from one side sounds a lot less natural to us.
For most people, the main benefit of a rechargeable hearing aid is simple convenience. We are used to plugging in our phones and other devices overnight for them to charge up.
For anybody with poor dexterity or issues with their fingers, having a rechargeable aid makes a huge difference as normal hearing aid batteries are quite small and some people find them fiddly to change.
One downside is that if you forget to charge your hearing aid, then it is a problem that can't be instantly fixed. For most a 30 minute charge will get you at least two or three hours of hearing, but if you are the type of person who is likely to forget to plug them in regularly then you're probably better off with standard batteries.
Rechargeable aids are also a little bit bigger and are only available in behind the ear models.
Finally, just like with a mobile phone, the amount of charge you get on day one is not going to be the same as you get a few years down the line. Be sure to ask what the policy is with the manufacturer warranty when it comes to replacing the battery.
For most people, the answer is yes. But it's never that simple.
The majority of hearing problems affect the high frequencies a lot more than the low ones. Therefore open fitting hearing aids sound a lot more natural and ones that block your ears up can make your own voice sound like you are talking with your head in a bucket. Therefore in-ear aids tend to be less natural.
However the true answer is we can't tell until we have had a look in your ears to assess the size of your ear canal, and until we have tested your hearing to see which frequencies are being affected.
People with wider ear canals tend to have more flexibility, also there are open fitting modular CIC hearing aids now that do not block your ears.
There is also the age old rule to consider, that a hearing aid will not help you if it's sat in the drawer gathering dust. If the only hearing aid you would be happy wearing is one that people can't see, then that's what you should get.
Most people can adapt to any type of hearing aid, as long as they know what to expect. Have an honest conversation with your audiologist as to what your needs are.
Generally speaking, six or more. Unless it's none at all.
The number of channels a hearing aid has is often a simplistic way an audiologist will use to explain why one hearing aid is better than another, but channels are complex and it is really not that straightforward.
Hearing aids amplify sounds of different frequencies by different amounts. Most people have lost more high frequencies than low and therefore need more amplification in the high frequencies. The range of sounds you hear are split into frequency bands or channels and the hearing aids are set to provide the right amount of hearing at each frequency level.
Less than six channels and this cannot be done with much accuracy, so six is the magic number. However, a six channel aid is typically very basic with few other features and is suitable only for hearing a single speaker in a quiet room. The number of channels is not what you should be looking at, it's more the rest of the technology that comes with them.
As a final note, different manufacturers have different approaches. One method is not necessarily better than any other. For example some manufacturers have as many as 64 channels in their top aids. Most tend to have between 17 and 20. One manufacturer has no channels at all.
The short answer is yes! Hearing aids are easily lost, misplaced or damaged and typically are one of the most expensive personal possessions an individual can own. We offer hearing aid cover for £80 per year per aid. Find out more here
