Resound GN

Hear Like No Other

Just like a fingerprint, your hearing is one of a kind. Now you can experience truly individualised, natural, and more complete sound with an extra microphone placed in your ear canal.  We call it M&RIE. It uses your own ears to deliver the sound. 

What makes Resound GN hearing aids unique?

80% of people who wear hearing aids describe hearing in noise as a key challenge. To address this, ReSound Nexia has been engineered to sound natural while still delivering 150% improvement in speech understanding compared to current hearing aids. In a clinical study, 20% of respondents had issues with the sound of their own voice when wearing hearing aids. ReSound Nexia also addresses this challenge by enhancing the user’s perception of ‘own voice’, so it sounds natural which contributes to higher satisfaction, leading to improved retention of hearing aids.

For additional sound performance and comfort, ReSound introduces Check My Fit, a new, first-of-its-kind feature in the ReSound Smart3D App. It gives users guidance to wear their hearing aids correctly via a quick ear selfie. Wearing hearing aids incorrectly can result in up to 11dB of sound escaping the ear, reducing the ability to hear considerably. Check My Fit also works with other ReSound hearing aids to help people enjoy sound fully without unnecessary trips to the audiologist. 

​

What improvements are in Resound Nexia compared to Resound One?

​

Is Resound Nexia good for speech understanding?

Resoud Nexia is all about the background noise. The improved Ultra Focus feature gives you the access to focus on whom you are conversing with in more clarity than potentially other hearing aid brands in the industry.  Along with the Resound app, you can gain full control of sound direction and use an array of settings to enhance your listening experience in restaurants or to adjust such things as music.

Resound Nexia gives you automatic focus on what you want to tune into or listen to. This means you have full control of how you want to hear and not your hearing aids. 


What is the difference between Resound Nexia 9, 7 and 5?

Please see a comparison of Resound Nexia 9, 7 and 5 here. Resound Nexia technology level 9 will provide a better performance in the following soundscapes:

  1. Speech in noise

  2. Speech in car

  3. Speech in spaces with echo

​

What Resound Nexia technology level should I pick, 9, 7 or 5?

Choosing Ressound Nexia technology level is a choice of lifestyle and budget. If you don't have a constrained budget then go with the higher level of technology that your budget allows, level 9. Keep in mind that hearing aids are a special type of consumer good. They have relatively long lifetimes (about 7-10 years) hence you need to look at your purchase as an investment. You may not have many constraints on your budget, but you may not have a very busy life either i.e. you rarely find yourself in a conversation in the presence of background noise or competing speech such as in pubs, restaurants, coffee shops and so on. In that case, Resound Nexia 5 might be just enough for you. For a better understanding of your options, we suggest consulting with your audiologist. Book an online consultation here.

The answer is that Resound Omnia hearing aids are able to provide 24-30 hours of running time when they are fully charged. The following factors could change the run time of rechargeable hearing aids: 

  1. Level of your hearing loss - The higher the hearing loss the higher the consumption of the battery

  2. The ambient temperature - The higher the ambient temperature the faster the battery may get depleted

  3. Use of streaming - The longer and louder streaming of music or hands-free phone conversation the higher the consumption of the batter, hence shorter the runtime
