My overall take on phone compatibility.: I feel like I need a flowchart. Two basic types of Bluetooth: LE and Classic. Only hearing aids that use Classic are Sonova (Phonak) and I think a new Signia hearing aid. Just about any phone should work with these although I’d still recommend sticking with iPhone, Samsung or Google. LE Bluetooth can broken down into 1) Made for iPhone, 2) and 3). If you’re limited to Made for iPhone and ASHA, I’d stick with an iPhone. If you’ve got LE Audio, then phone selection is very limited–recent Google and Samsung phones. Compatibility is still iffy enough that I’d confirm that I could return aids/ phone if things don’t work out.

NEW UPDATE
My Motorola G 5G 2023 did not work at all with Costco Rexton except for the App that adjust volume, balance and direction.
That phone shut down, shut off with no ability to power up.
I had the T-Mobile insurance for phone replacement.
T-Mobile support provided me with a coupon to upgrade to the
Motorola G 5G 2025 model
This phone connects to the Costco Rexton hearing aids.
Notice on the Motorola G 5G 2025 - If a Bluetooth audio device is connected to the phone, the Motorola G 5G 2025 Audio & Phone will not connect until the phone is restarted.
Establish a habit of disconnecting (or power down) any Bose Headset or portable Bluetooth wireless audio devices before powering on the Rexton.

As expected, the audio is designed for human voice range. Its not going to provide the deep base or volume for example of a Bose noise canceling headset. It is working for example Google Maps direction. Receiving a phone call.

Now for a phone call microphone, I am ready to consider a device for this. With a phone call, the microphone appears to be the one in the Motorola G 5G 2025. If wearing a shirt with a front pocket, it appears to work OK.
