I guess my wife was right-I did need hearing aids!

I got to take these on a week long cruise that had a number of panels and shows that required you to absorb an audio portion of the presentations.
As much as I thought I had them setup right while I was still at home, I needed to adjust them for the sound levels being pumped out of an amplifier on the ship.
Once I got done fiddling with the audio levels these really did make a difference, as evidenced by removing them in the middle of a show, then replacing them back into my ears several times to compare. I did this on both ears and picked up a noticeable difference with both.
I had tried other OTC hearing air solutions but none of them made the type of difference that these do.
Now that I am back at work I'm noticiing a huge difference in my hearing as well - hearing what otherwise would have been whispers as if they were speaking directly to my face.
These are definitely first rate devices and I strong recommend to anyone who needs something to boost their hearing ! They might not be stylish but they definitely fit the need!

I was given these to try out. I was excited to try them out and with the futures these had to offer I was hoping they would work out. Unfortunately, they did not. My biggest issue was that they both kept whistling. The left ear would stop when I set the volume lower but then that defeated the purpose to even have hearing aids. The right one seemed to do this regardless. I tried different tips, different positions in the ear etc. These also lack any customization. No app to connect to.
I did like the case, small and has a UV light cleaner and has a backup battery to charge the hearing aids while you are out and no outlet around.
They also provided both a USB cable and a wall plug, which lately a lot of other brands do not provide. I like that these are rechargeable instead of a battery type.
I would have liked to have seen these connect Bluetooth with phone and then an app that would allow to adjust the sound with more options.
These also are independent. Again, something an app could allow would be to adjust both at the same time.
If these worked without the whistling, then I would probably give them a 3 star. Mainly because I would prefer them to be able to connect to a smartphone and have an app.

I did NOT receive "promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review". I have found the Pro 2s to be unusable - at lease for me. The feedback is constant and loud (my wife can hear it across the room). I've tried every setting, position and ear dome size to no avail. The fit is another matter as they tend to work their way out when talking or chewing. I personally don't consider them "inexpensive" if I can't use them.

Purchased and tried these hearing aids I would not recommend them could not get rid of the feedback and I tried every earbud shipped with the product. They were also very uncomfortable.
