Give us the big OTC hearing aid showdown! Do it now! 😂 Please 🥺
Hi Dr.Cliff. Excellent advice! Iv considered buying the Eargo 6, or 7. but have a borderline severe hearing loss! ii took your advice and went to Cost Co, and receved excellent service from there audioalagist, plus they back up the hearing aids with a three year warentee. i lost an aid about a year later, in a windy rain storm, and they replaced it like they said they would. If Eargo ever comes out with an aid for severe loss, id try them
Well done. Thanks for the efforts on this channel. Don’t sell out :).
Thank you so much! Very helpful.
I ordered a pair I hope they're good
🤔 interesting new intro cliff quite modern actually 😁
Nice transparency with REMs
@drcliffaud thanks for the review!how do you feel the compare to Sony’s CRE C10, which are only $1000? I’m trying both right now and don’t really hear a difference between the two. It’s mainly the customization and comfort level for the Eargos.
Would these help with a low frequency hearing loss?
Thank you for another excellent insightful review! Have you considered reviewing the Jabro Select Enhance hearing aids since they bought Lively? I had considered trying those, but the audiologist for my hearing aid insurance recommended I get prescription hearing aids for my hidden hearing loss.
I’d never heard the term “hidden hearing loss” before and I just looked it up. People with this condition typically have normal hearing test results but still have trouble understanding speech in anything but perfect conditions. Apparently low gain hearing aids with noise reduction can help.
Will you be reviewing the Eargo SE?
curious what the soundadjust+ would have done in the compression test?
Dr watching your videos ❤from California could you please let me know if any hearing aids also having program or apps to help with extreme sensitivity to sounds ? I heard some doctors programming them first just for sound therapy via special protocol before they using them for tinnitus and hearing loss. ? Is it true?
Thank you for such a great review. I am currently still on the trial period with Phonak Titanium P90 IIC. The unfortunate thing about them is the occlusion I get with them. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to get used to that, so I’m pretty sure I will be returning them. What I do like about them is how natural everyone’s voices sound. I was all set to try the Eargo until you mentioned they sounded tinny. Also I need help with soft voices and it appears Eargo won’t be much of a help. So, thank you and I’ll continue on with my search.
I need hearing aids because I spent 20 yrs on an Ambulance. Retired in 2017. Can I still get the first responders discount?
I tried the non functioning Eargo 6 samples and unfortunately (or not?) these would not fit without pain in one of my ears. Also in both ears I got distracting rubbing sounds when eating or yawning.
Is it worth spending almost three times as much to get the Eargo 7s versus the SONY CRE-C10s? How do they compare besides one being rechargeable?
How do the Eargo 7's compare to the major iic brands like Oticon, Starkey, Phonak?
So in one part of your video, you say these dont do a good job with amplifying soft voices, and at the end you say they might be perfect people having difficulty hearing soft voices. Which is it?
How can purchase and price
I think if you put the numbers together the Ergo stuff is sort of a rental. Rechargeable batteries lose longevity quickly and are not replaceable. So you pay $90 a month for the 2 years of warranty on a product that probably can not be repaired post warranty is actually pretty expensive if you grasp you are paying $90 a month for the rest of your life. At least that is how my conversation went with the rep. If the initial price was about 15-20% lower I would put consider these as an option but given over the next 5 years I would pay over $5k for these units.
STILL, these things are very comfortable for the average person and have gotten so much better I will consider these in Ergo 8.
Hi Dr Cliff: I love your videos! Just bought Eargo 7's had the 5's and the Neos. The 7 seems a little better but not greta I'm on a 45 day trial. I went to a hearing specialist and I can get the second from the best Phonak Titanium for $3600. In your opinion would the Phonak be a lot better than the Eargos? Like everyone I have the most problems in loud environments so wondering if the Phonak would be much better. Eargo 7 is $2300, Phonak $3600. Thanks
Which did you go with?
Louder noises cause/contribute to hearing loss(?), a hearing aid make the sounds louder(?), so do hearing aids affect hearing loss? Delay as much as possible?
Same question. u get the answer?😅
Please do a review of the Ceretone Core One OTC hearing aid
They are not good. Others have done reviews of them. Try Audien Atom Pro. Although not as small, they do have good sound based on over six months of wearing them. Don't get the newer 2 Series.
Eargo definitely has feedback problems, but don't expect prompt support from Eargo. I know from experience.
Does the petal ever fall off inside the ear canal when you’re removing the device? I’m worried it would get stuck in my ear canal
That's never happened to me and I've been wearing Eargo devices for over 3 years now.
What over the counter would you advise that has bluetooth? I need something simular to the in ear design with tether. I knocked out Perscriptions due to a childhood issue. Do any over the counters have bluetooth. I prefer in ear Headphones because big headphones are just bulky. I also have a tonal issue with Mild to moderate loss.
When you can stream phone audio to them, ill get them, even nicer would be if you can use their mic for a phone call
Any chance sydney???
Hello, thank you for your work, please tell me, if I live in Ukraine, can I somehow, with your help, choose which hearing aid is right for me? I have sensorineural hearing loss of 2-3 degrees
I'm not familiar with how things work in Ukraine. Sorry.
Eargo may have better chances breaking the traditional hearing aid industry if they collaborate with respectable traditional hearing amplifications.
Well, hopefully the 7 is better than the 6. My Eargo 6 when placed in the charger overnight will not awaken when taken out of the charger in the morning. Eargo's advice, "Do not place the devices into the charger until about 4 hours prior to using them. Now that's a wonderful answer, just think about that when buying Eargo...
They are significantly better than the 6's.
Why can I not slow down this video?
To expensive for me
Soft speakers are the worst people, I hate them I'll literally tell them if the can't talk louder the conversation is over.
I left my ex over that!
It seems kinda odd that for nearly 3000 otc hearing aids they don't have Bluetooth 🙀
They don't protrude outside the ears so bluetooth can't reach the devices.
It’s probably the only IIC that you can connect to your phone currently Bluetooth or not
@@NinosKoussa uh what?
@@anonymous971 true they must use a different type of connection though if I recall signia used a type of infared for one of the other hearing aids it was an older one that wasn't part of the ax line yet
@@meric12131415 Signia is the only other device that has connection to the phone similar to Eargo .. Signia is a legit amplifier however, Eargo is IIC vs Signia is CIC
For almost 3 grand I expect Bluetooth.

Have moderate hearing, 2yrs ago bought Eargo, poor hearing aids. Wouldn't trust their products!
I also tried their dummy trial units and they didn't fit well. However that was a full three years ago. They have improved them quite a bit it seems. Maybe give them another try?
The Eargo 6. Horrible for me
@@482jpsquared it depends on which model you trialed. if it was NeoHiFi or earlier, these are a bit smaller. I actually find that older units being bigger are a better fit for my ears. the 7's have a much better match to customization profile and can be adjusted while you are wearing them.
Overpriced!
These suck don't buy... just get a $300 pair like this, same thing if you like these. But they are garbage.
