MEDca Digital Personal Sound Device - Personal Sound Enhancement Sound Amplifier, Rechargeable BTE Digital Personal Sound Device, Behind The Ear with All-Day Battery Life, Modern Blue

This is a good device and works well as hearing aid .It is fairly inobtrusive. I had previously bought one but have lost it so this is a replacement . I have tried other makes but have found this to be far superior.

I have only used it for about an hour so far. First impression is cheap finish, not very high quality. When I tried it, however, I was impressed; very clear, and astonishing amplification - more than I need. It made listening to TV much easier. What I want it for is helping me to hear in meetings, and I have no doubt that it will do that well. I have some age-related hearing loss, and I can hear some voices well, others I can't hear. It should mitigate that problem.I found it quite difficult to get it to fit my ear. It slipped out after about 5 minutes, I persevered, and eventually found a suitable dome to fit my ear canal - and, a tip here - it needed a smaller dome than I expected, so that it went further in. So, overall verdict: it does help for moderate hearing loss, but don't expect it to help in all conditions (e.g. background noise). At the price, I think it is a worthwhile purchase.Update: having tried it out further, in a real situation, I found it much less successful than I expected. If there is ANY background noise, it is amplified far too much; but the more important issue is that speech is not clarified at all. Making it louder does not necessarily make it more intelligible! I found that the amplification tends to be too great, but speech sounds rather hollow and somewhat muffled. I also find it difficult to keep the earpiece in place. There is too much 'pull' on it from the cable, which has to be twisted to get the earpiece in your ear; that tends to cause it to twist the earpiece sideways out of the ear, and I found myself putting it back in every few minutes. With hindsight, I wish that I hadn't bothered.

I bought this in Mid June 2019. Only used it Several times for meetings as my hearing problem comes and goes.In Aug 2019 it stopped working. Customer services said warranty is on only for 30 days. So the big logo, with customer satisfaction guaranteed is only valid for 30 days.Secondly the sound quality is not that good if you put the volume up you get feed back and only works on low volume setting but still get a lot of wind noise in background.Finally the base station for charging does not work properly you have to unplug everything, then plug in the right order as it will not charge. Very poor quality materials. But you get what you pay for I suppose.Poor quality product let down by poor quality customer service. Stopped working after being used several times.

I wasn’t expecting much from this very economic hearing aid, but having broken / lost two sets of hearing aids that cost thousands and my poor husband sick and tired of having to repeat everything to me, I was desperate. I am amazed at how good this is. Granted it isn’t as technologically advanced as my very expensive ones, that can cut out white noise and are directional. BUT...... I can hear what people say to me and I can watch the TV, without asking constantly what the actors are saying. It doesn’t work too well in busy places with a lot of ambient noise as it enhances all sounds, but it is easy to turn on and off. Charging from a USB is a bonus, no batteries.

I wear NHS hearing aids which, of course, are made for my particular hearing loss. There are times when I've not got them on and I want to hear better but can't be bothered to go and get my NHS hearing aids. It's for those time I wanted some hearing help. I didn't want to spend much. This hearing amplifier does the job. For anyone who doesn't know hearing aids, it's not as good as a custom made hearing aid that the NHS or a private hearing aid provider would supply because instead of increasing just those pitches you can't hear very well, this hearing amplifier increases ALL sounds, as does any hearing amplifier. I've used this hearing amplifier perhaps every other day for about an hour at a time. It's lasted about 18 months and now has stopped working. I'm disappointed and bought a Delmicure instead after much research.

Not suitable for me.

It's fantastic, I can hear better in my ear and you don't have to use batteries either. Thank you 😊

Fast delivery came earlier than stated less than 24hours. It is easy to operate and instructions very clear. It fitted perfectly without problem. Would recommend this hearing aid.
