    These are so easy to use! And very comfortable. I love that you get 20 plus hours on a single charge. The sound quality is amazing, too. And they are small and not very noticeable either.

    The hearing aids were easy to set up and perform comparably to my prescription units and 1/3 the price. This model has limited options for adjustment but hearing performance seems equivalent to my Rx units.

    I've been wearing prescription behind the ear hearing aids for the past 8 years and have gone through 2 pairs. It was time for an upgrade so I started my research and decided to try one of the new OTC aids. I first tried another brand but returned them due to a software issue that prevented my Android phone working with the hearing aids. Then, Sony came out with their OTC aids so I gave them a try. They are superb! I can now hear things that even the prescription aids would not process properly. The specs say up to 26 hours on a charge and that is conservative. I wear them for 15~16 hours per day and the charge level is still at 60%

    Best choice I have ever made with these. I’ve tried $2600. 00 which lasted about 6 months with constant fiddling with to an over the ear pair which lasted longer but not nearly as GOOD as these. I could have bought 3 pairs of the Sony . I will continue with this set until I need to get another, if I need to get another pair. Thank you Sony for making hearing great again!

    I can't say enough good things about these hearing aids. I was so frustrated with everyone whispering. lol. I followed the instructions, and in 10 minutes my hearing went from struggling to hear and understand to GREAT hearing. My own voice seems a little odd, but I was told that it would take a bit for my brain to catch up with my new hearing pattern. I love these hearing aids. They look like regular ear buds too. Happy, happy.

    Excellent. Needed on line chat to help me set up (on line chat was very helpful). Perfect for my need. No background noise even in noisy environment like Chinese Yum Cha. The blue tooth was excellent; clear streaming audio from my iphone and incoming phone calls Strongly recommend for mild to moderate hearing loss individuals. Only snag was one of the hearing aids had charging problems after 2 weeks use; I had to send it back to Sony and they are sending a replacement right now.

      Hi DavidC! Thank you for taking the time to review Sony CRE-E10 OTC hearing aids. We are thrilled to learn they've been working well for you!
      Because these hearing aids are OTC, they are non-custom, meaning they are not designed for the specific size and shape of your ear. We encourage you to reach out to our expert Sony Hear Team for more assistance with this concern: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=otcha

      Thanks for considering Sony products and for your feedback!

    Claims to Apple compatible. it can receive phone calls and stream music but the Bluetooth receiver is woefully underpowered and picks up interference if the phone is put in your pocket only a few feet from the hering aids.

      Hi JimK! Thank you so much for your review. I'm sorry to hear that you're not satisfied with the sound quality of your streaming. Hearing aids that are paired through the MFi menu typically encounter interferance when streaming from a pocket. MFi pairing is utilized, instead of a traditional bluetooth pairing, to conserve energy and give the CRE-E10 hearing aids their great battery life (up to 26 hours of use). We'll be sure to pass along your concern to our developers. Thank you so much for trusting Sony with your hearing healthcare journey! Erin Sony_US

    What an improvement! My wife says I talk in a normal voice now! They look like I'm wearing earbuds so you'll blend right in. The only thing keeping it from 5 stars is that they're a little troublesome to charge. I recommend taking the rubber sleeves off so they contact the case and charge better.
