These sub-$100 over-the-counter hearing aids are quite blunt, but they offer a taste of what’s possible in this burgeoning category.
Very blunt, basic volume boosting that rarely sounds great. No way to fine-tune based on your audiogram. Zero smart features.the third largest material purchase after a home and car is a set of hearing aids . You can chalk that up to the decades of predatorily high prices kept in place by an intense Congressional, available only with a prescription. That began to change in 2022 when hearing aids went over the counter.
If you’re prone to fiddling with hearing aids, you’ll probably accidentally hit the control button more than you’d like, inadvertently changing the volume and requiring you to cycle back through the five levels again to return to the volume you want. This is a bit of a pain, but a little hassle is perhaps to be expected at this price level.
Eventually, I found better luck in more intimate environments at lower volume settings and was able to see some value in hearing television audio and one-on-one conversations with a modest amount of added clarity—but in busy, noisy environments, the Atom One couldn’t keep up. In a bowling alley test, the aids were effectively useless no matter how I configured them.In all mode settings and at all volumes, there’s ample background hiss that makes it feel a bit like you’re sitting on an airplane.
