Overall Rating: 4.3 / 5 (Excellent)

NewEar BTE may not be the best hearing amplifier in the market but it does a good job for a device in its price range. However, it might not be ideal for noisy environments. Good points also include a longer battery life which lasts for up to 40 hours when fully charged. A good entry-level hearing amplifier for its price.

NewEar Pricing

Battery Life - 4.3 / 5

NewEar's Digital Ear Hearing Amplifier is available new for a variety of prices online. Generally the cost seems to hover around $39.99. Depending on what service you are using, shipping can in some cases be free. As true hearing aids can cost upwards of $5,000, this looks like an attractive option. But a personal sound amplification device should not be used in lieu of a actual hearing aid that has been fitted and adjusted by a professional. This device is more suited for light use, i.e. listening to a low television set as to not disturb others in the room.

NewEar After-Sale Service

Customer Experience - 4.3 / 5

NewEar's PSAP is only available through third party resellers. Customers are urged to consult the warranty and return policy of the particular provider they are using. As the price of the unit is relatively low, it seems unlikely there would be a warranty or trial period, but many online markets have money back return policies.

I purchased the Pocket Sound unit that specifically states stereo headphones come with the unit. It came with a single earbud, not stereo as advertised.

How, in this day, can a product be offered without any warranty? I find that hard to believe! I have made the mistake of ordering a set of these amplifiers from Amazon and they will be delivered tomorrow. I plan on returning them immediately, why should I pay for something that the manufacturer has no faith in?
