Atom Pro 2
2.8BELOW AVERAGE

Audien’s Atom Pro 2 is an easy-to-use, budget-friendly OTC option with excellent battery life, but our hands-on experience and HearAdvisor lab results show weak speech clarity—especially in noise—leaving it a “you get what you pay for” choice for mild needs rather than a true disruptor.

Audien Atom Pro 2 hearing aids lack an IP rating, so they might not be the best against moisture or dust. While using them they feel decently built and they do come with an excellent portable charging case.

Phonak Audeo Lumity RT have an excellent build quality with a robust, portable charging case and a high ingress rating of IP68.

They boast a 24-hour battery life, which is impressive for their small size. Recharging is on the longer end and can take up to 5 hours.

Audéo Lumity
4.0AVERAGE

Lumity last around 16 hours, longer without any streaming, and should offer all-day battery life for many. It should take 3 hours for a full recharge which is similar to other prescription devices.

I found the MyPhonak Hearing Aid app easy to use with many useful features, including health and fitness tracking.

Atom Pro 2
3.0BELOW AVERAGE

I did not find Atom Pro 2 to be the most comfortable OTC in-ear hearing aids. This was likely due to their larger size and not being tailored to a standard ear shape.

Audéo Lumity
5.0EXCELLENT

Phonak Lumity were extremely comfortable and lightweight in my ears. In general, hearing care providers can make numerous physical changes to prescription hearing aids to improve comfort.

Atom Pro 2
3.5BELOW AVERAGE

The design of Atom Pro 2 falls between a custom hearing aid and wireless earbud. They are only available in a medical beige color, which is meant to match skin color, but will not suit everyone. The case does include a UV cleaning light which is a nice touch.

Audéo Lumity

Lumity are modern and sleek, though they are not the smallest hearing aids on the prescription market. They are also available in 11 different colors allowing you to customize the look of your hearing aids.

I found Atom easy to use though they can be more challenging to insert and remove due to the small pull tab. Two features I really liked were the larger program buttons and easy to use portable charger.

Lumity are easy to use and adjust using either the large multi-function button or MyPhonak app. I had no issues making adjustments with either.
