UnionMed TechNew Hearing Aids for Seniors Adults,16-Channel Digital Rechargeable Hearing Aid with Intelligent Noise Reduction, Invisible in-Ear Hearing Aids(Pair) with Portable Charging Case, Black

I’m increasing having a hard time hearing conversational voices and repeatedly asking for well, repetition of what was just said. Saw these and thought they might be useful and while they are, I think they are lacking in certain aspects. I learned fast that hearing better is not simply a question of hearing louder.First the good: well packaged suggests good quality and in terms of build quality I think they are. They fit well in the ear and come with a myriad of bud shapes to help you wear them in comfort. They are rechargeable much like many musical ear buds are, namely they charge when placed in a small portable charging box which itself is charged so that it can be transported with you and used to provide several charges before itself needing to be charged via the supplied USB C cable. The earpieces fit easily in the box being magnetically pulled into place.And the not so good….In use, the aids did amplify voices but they also amplified other noises too and that became annoying fast. A door handle, a knife placed on a hard surface, plates being stacked …… are all amplified and force you to want to turn down the volume. And that’s where I got my first lesson as a novice user: thats all you’ve got here to change, the volume control. And suddenly the tech seems to be lacking. Because even the volume control here requires you remove the earpiece and use a screwdriver to adjust. So it’s a trial and error cycle of remove, adjust, insert, test….until you’re happy. Personally I couldn’t get the right balance of voice clarity/volume and background noise reduction. And therein lies the problem. That feature is missing. And the whole experience got me to thinking that in this age, surely an app on your phone should be the place where you make adjustments even if only to volume. So I’m afraid these are of limited use to me in their current form. Perhaps when watching TV where I’m in control of manually suppressing all the extraneous noise in the rest of the room. But I wanted them to be so much more.I hope you found this information helpful 👇

I don't have a severe hearing imparity, which this device may be beneficial, but I have a really hard difficulty to hear conversations when there are loud noises around, such as on a restaurant, bar, networking event, etc.The UnionMed Hearing Aids basically is an amplifier. It does amplify sounds and does filter the sound spectrum probably from 500Hz to 1kHz (this is my guess). This spectrum is the vocal spectrum which is great, but it does amplify any other sound in the spectrum as well. I was expecting a noise isolation device and conversation focused. I believe there are other devices that do that, but not this one.Pros:Powerful Amplification: Across the board, the UnionMed device significantly amplify sound. Anything around you will be amplified and somewhat filtered.Clear Sound for Speech: While some ambient sounds are amplified to a distracting degree, the speech clarity is good.Comfortable and Discreet: The in-ear design is comfortable for all-day wear and discreet enough to be worn unnoticed. I have not wore it for more than an hour though.Easy to Use: Simple volume control and automatic on/off functionality make these amplifiers user-friendly, especially for seniors. Just drop them in the case which has a battery and those will be charged. You do need to charge the case as well or just leave the case charging, permanently.Cons:Overly Sensitive to Ambient Noise: The amplification of background noises like dishes clinking and car signals is excessively loud and distracting, even at lower volume settings.Lack of Customization: The absence of sound filters or modes means you can't adjust the amplification for different environments or specific frequency loss. This is VERY important.No App Control: The lack of app integration limits your ability to fine-tune the listening experience.Overall:The UnionMed offer powerful amplification and decent clarity for speech at an affordable price point. However, the lack of customization options and their tendency to amplify all sounds indiscriminately may be a deal-breaker for some users, which is my case.

Purchased these for my dad who is hard of hearing. He always loses his pair of hearing aids and figured it would be a great idea to have an extra set around the house and these were a great choice. My dad said that they are comfortable and the size fits well in his ears. These are definitely a great value for the price.

These UnionMed Tech New Hearing Aids for Seniors Adults annoyed me because they picked up the household fan. Other than that they seemed to work well. Obviously I need to work on how to fine tune these. It isn't as easy as I hoped.

I wouldn't call this a hearing aid as that implies something more sophisticated. This seems to me to be a hearing amplifier. It really amplifies the sounds. So much that I had to turn it wayyyyyy down, nearly off to even tolerate the sound levels. It comes set at about 50% but that is not usable for me. I turned it to half of that (so 25% volume) and it was still way too loud. I ended up adjusting it 2 or 3 times and its set just above off. So for amplification purposes it works very well. For me though, it REALLY amplified things like putting a plate down. Turning a knob on my car or having the blinkers in my car make the blinking sound. All of which were super loud. Voices however, while louder were not crazy loud like all the other ambient noises. I wish that were not the case. I wish these had a way to try different filters or modes. I also wish it had an app so I could adjust where the boost is to match the area of frequency loss that I have. There are no adjustments with this. Only volume control. So all in all, I think these are lacking in features that could have made it much more usable. But they do work well as an amplifier.
