    I just got the over the ear genesis ai. I do not like over the ear. And the Bluetooth audio for phone calls and watching my tablet is horrible quality. So bad you cant stand to listen to it. And you cant make it sound better.iys just garbage no matter what. The wires and unit is always in the way of my hat and glasses and i cant get longer wires. So, i want to try the CIC rechargeable.

    @thebrianchannel9890 День тому

    Hearing aids do have the ability to hear from 20 to 20,000. When it comes to listening to music, they can be set up just like awesome in ear monitors. The richness and low end you describe that is missing when listening to music while streaming is because the audiologist has set it up to wear certain frequencies will not sound in your ears. If you had access to the software, you could adjust it yourself. Audiologist has decided that because you can’t hear 6000 Hz…. Then there is no reason to have 6000 Hz in the mix at all. The same with 100 or even 60 or 40.Hz. When hearing aid users can help the software to their hearing aids, things will truly change

I though have the fitted dome ear inserts which I appreciate, most sound routed through the HA. I also considered Widex. Both are great, but liked the Bluetooth and Phone connection options.

    Fantastic review , im wearing the Oticon more 2's on both ears since 2021 and i thought to check what's new from Oticon nowdays. Loved the part where you mentioned if it is worth to upgrade from Real to intent because you know the price is not cheap. I tested the Real back in the day and i didnt notice a huge difference to be honest. Hard to decide if it's worth to look into upgrading to Intent.

    • @Ziphearing

      Thank you for the kind words and the great comment! Our general "rule of thumb" is to look into upgrading if the new model is 2 generations newer.

    I was recommended the Genesis AI and I am coming from the Picasso. The Genesis is gonna be the ITE like my Picasso. My chief worry is the rechargeable battery setup. Is this something I should worry about in terms of battery life? It seems from reading the forums, it generally last a whole day, is that true? I take off my Picassos during lunch time for about an hour. How much charge is achieved with 1 hour? I'm excited a bit but also worried also going to a rechargeable. My audiologist was surprised I was approved for it and she went with the signature series due to budgetary reasons.

    Great review. It is very helpful. I am in the process of testing a REAL 1 - an upgrade over a top level 7 year old Oticon OPN. Strangely my audiologist never told me about the INTENT as an option. I asked to trial the latest technology and they suggested a REAL 1. Music is an important thing for me - I sing in an acapella choir- play the piano and guitar. Communicating in noisy environments is not a top priority for me. I still find the piano a bit reverby especially single notes. However it would seem from what you the extra cost of the INTENT over the REAL 1 may not be worth it. I have a SAMSUNG S21 and I find the REAL 1 app works perfectly with it including streaming.

    I just got a pair of the Oticon Intent 1 four days ago. I originally bought a pair of a different brand (top 3-4), but just didn't like them. I'm already enjoying these so much more and even with the rechargeable pair, after wearing them for 14 hours already today, still have 13hrs of charge left. Those numbers are pretty consistent so far. As for my other pair, they are battery, not rechargeable, not even close as far as comfort goes and are now officially my backup pair, should I need one. Its a shame that I have only had that pair for 3 or 4 months and I didn't hesitate to move away from them.

    • @Ziphearing

      There is certainly a distinction between an Audiologist and a Hearing Specialist. The Audiologist will be able to perform hearing examinations and diagnose a hearing loss. The hearing specialist is more focused on fitting and programming hearing aid technologies. With training, knowledge, and experience a hearing specialist will be able to provide a level of expertise and service that will be identical to an audiologist. Both will use the same computer programs, and devices to tune your hearing aids for your specific situation.

A tall order for anyone especially when retired and have limited insurance coverage to pay for these. But oh sooo looking forward to hearing again all the things I have lost over the years.

    My advice is go to doctors and get referred to an Audiologist at the Audiology dept at hospital. They are medically trained. The staff at a hearing aid shop may not be medically trained.

    • @Ziphearing
      @Ziphearing 16 днів тому

      I would definitely agree that going to an audiologist is a very good idea when it comes to hearing tests and overall hearing health. However, I have found that purchasing hearing aids through an audiologist is one of the more expensive options. They will most likely tell you that the price reflects the support and service for a certain number of years, but places like ZipHearing will provide you with a hearing specialist close to your location that will provide the same level of supports and services. Also, did I forget to mention that ZipHearing could save you thousands of dollars, like they saved me?! Head on over to the site and check out pricing and availability! www.ziphearing.com/?

    Thank you for Steve's review. I got my Oticon Real 1 miniRITE R and Oticon CROS PX(for BICROS) early last month, and what a game changer they have been. I can now easily hear what my wife is saying when we're outside walking our dogs. In loud, crowded restaurant settings, it's still somewhat of a challenge, but I can now hear most of what people across the table from me are saying. I'm very pleased with my Oticon aids, though, if I'm being completely honest, I wish that Oticon would improve their Companion app. It's a little lacking in their settings for different environments.

      We are so happy to hear that you are enjoying your experience with the Real 1's! In my experience, many of these hearing aid companies are constantly improving on their companion apps, fixing bugs and increasing stability. However, there aren't many significant jumps when it comes to functionality and customization. Hopefully, oticon can push an update in the future that will add to your positive experience with the company!

    I have opn1 and More1 aids. I think the streaming sound is pretty good. They don’t make buds or headphones loud enough for me. Are the Real’s at least as good in terms of streaming audio quality? My VA audiologist asked me if I want the Real’s ot Intent model. Sounds like Intent is the way to go. Following a conversation with any sort of background noise is nearly impossible for me as one of my ears is nearly dead.

    • @Ziphearing
      @Ziphearing 20 днів тому

      I would always recommend going with the latest model, due to more advanced technologies and connectivity upgrades. The streaming audio quality should be better due to a newer and more advanced bluetooth standard that is used for connection.

We are both in the same boat when it comes to waiting to see how pervasive it will be. I actively try to avoid mentioning a specific cost in the videos because I don't want to say a price in the present time and then have it be different in the future and cause confusion.

      First of all, I am so happy to hear that you are communicating your issues and trying to resolve them! Communication is a crucial part of the fitting and programming process! I am very confident that, with a few tweaks, the audiologist will be able to work out the issues you are experiencing.

      I can certainly understand the confusion and it is truly very difficult to give you an answer that will apply to 100% of people in all situations. The bluetooth connection between the phone and the hearing aids is going to depend on A TON of different factors. Some of these factors include the type of phone you are using, the particular bluetooth protocol the phone is utilizing, surrounding interference, distance from the phone, and potentially out-of-date firmware on the hearing aids. Yes, many hearing aids companies are constantly trying to keep up to date with bluetooth updates being pushed to the phone, so I am not surprised that Oticon says it is a work in progress.

    I also have the Oticon Intent 2 hearing aids. The hearing aid part does a fantastic job, I can hear the frequencies that I couldn't hear without the hearing aids. The volume of the TV, stereo, and my guitar amp are now lower. I am still learning as well how to adjust to certain environments. The trouble spot is Bluetooth streaming, especially with LE Audio. Without it, the streaming distance is short, but at least it connects, but lately it has just been one ear or the other. With LE Audio; the distance is much better, the clarity is much better, and the overall sound is much better, especially listening to music. But the streaming drops, disconnects, or won't connect at all without rebooting the hearing aids multiple times. It gets annoying and is frustrating. Try LE Audio if your phone is capable, the distance with streaming is really good. But the drawback is getting it connected and stay connected. Good luck.
