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.
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 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.
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. While the streamed audio quality has improved, it needs work before I'd consider it hi-fidelity.
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.
The Zepp app offers useful features for customizing the sound quality to your preferences. Be sure to complete the on-ear assessment within the More tab.
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 Zepp Clarity comfortable however, they sit deeper in your ear which may not suit everyone's preferences or needs.
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.
Clarity are small and sit almost completely in your ear canals. This can make them very desirable if you are looking for a discrete hearing aid option.
Jabra Enhance Select 300 has a value score of 3.9/5 based on lab performance and public display price.
Zepp Clarity Pixie has a value score of 3.1/5 based on lab performance and public display price.
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.
Some may find the smaller size of Pixie more difficult to handle and see, especially if you have limited finger dexterity and or low vision.
Jabra has arguably the best pro support offering among OTC devices, providing telehealth with hearing care providers, remote programming, and tech support.
