With the release of the Samsung Galaxy S25 series today, a series of new Android accessibility features were also launched simultaneously, aiming to provide a more convenient life experience for hearing-impaired and visually impaired users.
Among them, Bluetooth Low Energy Audio (LE Audio) technology will be extended to the popular GN Hearing and Oticon Intent hearing aids. LE Audio technology will standardize Bluetooth support for hearing aids, improve interoperability between devices, and ensure that hearing aid users can enjoy high-quality sound directly through their hearing aids.
This technology not only allows users to better manage their hearing aids, but also supports answering calls through hearing aids, so users can make hands-free calls without relying on other devices.
In addition, the new technology will simplify the operation of users switching between different hearing aid modes through system settings. Bluetooth low energy technology will also reduce connection latency, providing a better synchronization experience when playing games or videos.
According to IT Home, the Galaxy S25 series will be the first device to support this integration, and the Google Pixel 9 equipped with the Android 16 beta and the Galaxy S24 running Android 15 will also receive this feature update in the coming weeks.
At the same time, Android has also launched an upgrade to the screen reader function for blind or low-vision users. TalkBack is the screen reader for the Android platform, and this update will make it easier for visually impaired users to operate Android phones.
The Galaxy S25 series will be the first Android phone to allow people who use Braille to use the screen through HID . Bluetooth HID is a profile that defines the feature set of how Bluetooth devices can discover Bluetooth HID devices.
In addition, TalkBack will also use Google’s Gemini model to provide more detailed image description capabilities. These new features will first debut on the Galaxy S25 and will then be gradually extended to more mobile and tablet devices running Android 15.
