How do I find the best hearing aid technology at the best price?
Contrary to popular belief, choosing the best hearing aid technology for you isn't just about your level of hearing loss — it's about how you live.
Some hearing aid devices are designed for quiet routines. Others are built to keep up with active, social lives. That's why we offer a full range of in ear hearing aids and RIC hearing aids to match every kind of lifestyle and budget.
No matter which hearing aid type you ultimately choose, one thing holds true: The better the technology, the better the results — especially when it's programmed by a true expert. That is where the real magic happens.
So how do you find the best hearing aid at the best price? Start with how you live — and then find the right tech and team for your needs. (Need help deciding? Our experts are always here to help.)
How do I compare hearing aids?
You'll notice that many of our hearing aid devices look the same on the outside. That's because they share the same award-winning and ultra-discreet design. What really sets these virtually invisible hearing aids apart is what's inside. Here's how to read the model names and pricing at a glance:
These are all medical-grade hearing aid devices with the exception of the Sony OTC device we carry — the best non-prescription option we've found. It doesn't offer the same level of care or customization as our Horizon hearing aids but can be a fit for simpler needs.
