Summary
Product Description
Elehear’s $599 Beyond Pro is a feature-packed, self-fitting OTC hearing aid that delivers clear, natural sound and strong speech-in-noise performance for the price—and in my opinion, while it’s not flawless, I was genuinely impressed by how much value and real-world performance it offers for the money.
Product Description
The Oticon Intent is a state-of-the-art hearing aid launched in February 2024, featuring advanced Deep Neural Network (DNN 2.0) technology for enhanced speech clarity in noisy environments and 4D sensor technology for adaptive sound settings.
