LapEasy Hearing Aids for Seniors Rechargeable with Noise Canceling, Hearing Amplifier for Adults, Sound Amplifier for Hearing Loss - in Ear - with Volume Control

With years of intermittent experimentation, I was just getting comfortable with a pair of rechargeable "Onebridge" hearing aids that cost about $125 a few years ago. They included a two-position tone control (regular and extra-treble-boost), and of course variable volume. After a few years, one aid suddenly lost about 10 or 20 dB of gain, and the other keeps beeping every few minutes stabbingly loudly, that it's out of batteries, beeping all day like the Chinese Water Torture, before its battery finally actually dies. So, two different failure modes from two different aids.Onebridge went out of business, so I can't get a new pair of the aids I'm already familiar with.So I got these LapEasy hearing aids. They don't have an extra-treble-boost option, which one of my ears is so bad it couldn't hear the difference from the non-boost position anyway, so the opinion of one of my ears is "Who needs it." These aids are rechargeable, each aid has its own USB-C jack. The Onebridge aids had a rechargeable base that its aids could get a charge from more than a few times before the base needed its own recharge, a convenience that was only rarely useful; but the special, mechanical, spring-loaded pins between the Onebridge aids and their charging base were also seriously failing. The standard USB-C jacks on these LapEasy aids are likely to survive much longer than funky spring-loaded pins.USB-C jacks are rated for 10,000 insertion cycles, but I can't figure out how that converts to years of life for the LapEasy hearing aids. Maybe a really long time.And lastly, the Onebridges were rated for moderate -- but not severe hearing loss. These LapEasy aids get a lot louder, and one of my ears really needs that.I think these LapEasy aids should have come with a Y-adapter splitter, a female USB-C jack to two male USB-C plugs, to plug into the end of your own USB-C cable, so that one charger could charge both ears at the same time. However, these LapEasys charge fast enough, so it's not awful charging the two ears one at a time. Or, of course if you're outfitted with two chargers and two USB-C cables, then you can charge both ears at the same time. But even charging one at a time hasn't been so critical a problem, since the LapEasys charge so fast.Hearing aids, I've learned, can break out into an assortment of failure modes. Loss of amplification stages, mechanical failures, digital programming problems. At least the LapEasys are so simple, they won't have the charging problems or digital programming failures such as the warning-beep problems that the Onebridge aids succumbed to. The LapEasys have a mechanical On/Off switch which might be delicate -- who knows, so be gentle with it. The rest of the internals will hopefully last a long time. In the meantime, the plain-jane volume boost for a low price is helpful for my two ears, even though they have completely different severities of hearing problems.Update: After a couple of weeks, I've gotten more used to these hearing aids.

Sound quality good, nice for tv,conversation

OMG, these are reasonably priced for the purpose they are to serve...love that they are rechargeable. I bought them for my 84 yr old Aunt who can no longer hear too well. Fair quality for the price. They function well. Good sound. After about a month of using them they no longer worked properly. Sad that I will have to purchase another pair but not these again.

Se los compré a mi padre que ya no escuchaba nada, teníamos que hablarle fuerte y de muy cerca para que nos pudiera escuchar, y estos amplificadores le salvaron el mundo ahora escucha hasta el sonido más mínimo y su carga dura todo el día

es muy bueno compite con PHONAK

I bought as a replacement for my husband. He said he was able to hear but wasn't clear and had a lot feedback noise.We have had it since april 15 and has already stopped working.One fell out of his ear somewhere so we cant send it back

En excelente Condiciones

The back ground noise is terrible! Can’t use then in the car because of road noise.
