Summary
The Lucid Tala is a new over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aid priced at $1,299.99 per pair, designed to enhance speech clarity and offer wireless streaming for both iOS and Android devices. While it features customizable sound settings through the Lucid Hearing app and boasts a 16-hour battery life, it lacks ear-level controls and has subpar Bluetooth audio quality, making it a mixed bag for users.
The ReSound Vivia is a cutting-edge, AI-driven hearing aid featuring a Deep Neural Network (DNN) trained on 25 years' worth of conversations to enhance speech clarity in noise. Designed as the world’s smallest microRIE hearing aid, it offers up to 30 hours of battery life, Bluetooth LE Audio with Auracast, and the Intelligent Focus feature, which prioritizes speech based on the user's line of sight for a more natural listening experience.
