Jabra Enhance Select 700 vs. Zepp Clarity Pixie

Jabra’s flagship Enhance Select 700 offers premium sound, LE Audio, Auracast, and top-tier remote audiology care in a tiny, discreet design.

Zepp Pixie are a unique OTC hearing aid offering useful wireless app features, a discrete size, near all-day battery life, and more. From a price and performance perspective, Pixie beats Eargo, its closest competitor, on both counts.

Jabra Enhance Select 700 achieved a SoundScore of 3.91/5 and a SoundGrade of B in HearAdvisor lab testing. It ranked #16 of 61 OTC Hearing Aid devices tested. The OTC Hearing Aid category average SoundScore was 3.47/5.

Zepp Clarity Pixie achieved a SoundScore of 3.88/5 and a SoundGrade of B in HearAdvisor lab testing. It ranked #17 of 61 OTC Hearing Aid devices tested. The OTC Hearing Aid category average SoundScore was 3.47/5.

Jabra hearing aids share technology from GN Resound and generally have fantastic build quality. Select 700 is no exception with an ingress rating of IP68 and the standard robust portable charging case.

Zepp Pixie appear to be well built although their IP rating of X7 suggests regular cleaning and maintenance will be key to long-term protection from dust and debris.

Jabra 700 offer full-day 24 hour battery life. The case also holds enough power for 3 addition charges which is plenty for a weekend excursion.

With a battery life of 17 hours, Zepp Clarity should last your entire day without needing to recharge. The portable charger is also robust and the added on-the-go power is a nice addition.

Bluetooth was straightforward and reliable, working seamlessly without any issues. This is what I've come to expect with Jabra hearing aids.
