Build Quality
Quality is fantastic when it comes to Jabra hearing aids as they share technology from GN Resound. Select 300 have a solid ingress rating of IP68 and the portable charging case will have no problems handling daily use.
Pure MaX have an impressive build quality, featuring a top-of-the-line IP68 ingress rating. I also found their portable charging case robust, though on the larger size.
Battery
Jabra have really stepped up their game with a 30 hour battery life, ensuring you get through the day even with streaming. The case also holds enough power for 3 addition charges which is plenty for a weekend excursion.
Pure Max hearing aids have a reported battery life of around 30 hours per charge. While less than Signia's previous Pure C&G device, it is still plenty to get you through the day. Recharging takes 3 to 4 hours which can be done overnight while you sleep.
Bluetooth
Bluetooth was straightforward and reliable, working seamlessly without any issues. While the streamed audio quality has improved, it needs work before I'd consider it hi-fidelity.
MaX are Bluetooth compatible with both iOS and Android devices, allowing for audio streaming and hands-free calling.
App Features
The Jabra Enhance App mirrors the useful features available in Resounds medical hearing aid app. I found it to offer plenty of options to personalize audio quality beyond the custom programming.
Signia's app stands out with its user-friendly interface and modern, appealing design. It includes practical features like the ability to control the focus of your hearing aids and a mask mode to enhance speech clarity. Additionally, the app offers wellness features, utilizing hearing aid motion sensors for activity tracking.
Comfort
I found 300 very comfortable given their smaller lightweight design. The button also has an improved ridge for easier use compared to previous generations.
I found MaX very comfortable due to their shape and earwire design. Your hearing care provider should ensure they are fitted for optimal comfort and hearing benefit before you leave the office.
Design
Jabra has done a nice job redesigning prescription technology for the direct-to-consumer market. Select 300 is sleek, with a range of stylish colors, and sat discretely behind my ear.
MaX features a modern, sleek design and is available in a variety of colors, from discreet to bold. This latest generation has a rougher matt finish, which is nice.
Value
Jabra Enhance Select 300 has a value score of 3.9/5 based on lab performance and public display price.
Signia Pure Charge&Go MaX has a value score of 4.7/5 based on lab performance and public display price.
Handling
300 are easy to use, though receiver-in-canal devices might take a bit of practice. Pro support can assist, and the easy charging case makes on-the-go charging a breeze.
I did not run into any issues while using MaX hearing aids. They are very easy to use once setup by your hearing care provider. First-time users may need some practice to get accustomed to inserting the receiver-in-ear style properly.
Pro Support
Jabra has arguably the best pro support offering among OTC devices, providing telehealth with hearing care providers, remote programming, and tech support.
You should receive quality hearing care and support from your provider. The Signia App should enhance your experience with AI assistance and user-friendly virtual appointments, given your provider offers telehealth services.
