Why easy-fit invisible hearing aids are so popular?
Custom-made invisible IIC and CIC and easy-fit CIC hearing aids are popular because of their vanity, being almost invisible in the ear canal and being very effective to help people with high-frequency hearing loss. The easy-fit CIC hearing aids are even more popular because they can be reprogrammed remotely, they connect wirelessly to your smartphone and they have a CROS version for single-sided hearing loss.
Do I need to make an ear impression for my invisible hearing aids?
When it comes to invisible hearing aids, you have two options, you can make impressions of your ear canal and make custom-made IIC or CIC, or you can choose easy-fit invisible hearing aids.

Which one is the latest technology, Signia SILK NX or the Signia SILK X series?
Signia SILK Nx was the older generation of Signia CIC invisible hearing aids. Since 2021 Signia introduced Signia SILK X which works based on the Signia Xperience technology platform. The Signia SILK X introduced a new audiological system – it introduced 6 acoustic sensors that made a significant improvement towards the analysis of the environment, determining speech location and so forth. All key to then apply new advanced features. Another difference between Signia SILK X and Signia SILK Nx is size, Signia SILK X was made smaller than the NX version. So better cosmetically and even more fit rate to ears! No surprise that you find Signia SILK Nx cheaper than Signia SILK X hearing aids in the UK market.
