I currently have the Philips 9040 from Costco. I’ve had them for 5 months and I generally like them with the exception of Bluetooth connectivity. Any idea when the new 9050s will be available?

[@HearingTracker]

As soon as I know any more info I'll out out a vid so make sure you're subscribed! Matthew

[@MrTrickieDick]

I m just finishing my first week with the Reach. I had a previous version of the Rexton from Costco for 4 years before. The reach is a 1000% improvement. I've had not problems with the bluetooth and can hear my phonecalls clearly through them. I suppose my only complain would be, I have an Android phone and I cannot answer or talk through the Reach. That doesn't bother me since I get few phone calls these days. I hear the TV clearly now and I have yet to ask my wife to repeat something. So yes, we are both pleased. There may be better solutions out there but I doubt there is one for $1500 and my Reach fulfills all my hearing needs.

[@harryfbrc]

Costco Phillips 9040. First time user and had them for about a year. Generally very pleased.

[@HearingTracker]

Thanks for sharing Harry! Matthew

[@Graygeezer]

I recently spent $4,950 for the mid-level Signia Pure Charge&Go T5IX from an Audiologist. The level you’re featuring today would have cost me $6,000. I’m going to Costco next time.

[@HearingTracker]

You have to remember, you're not just paying for the tech! Matthew

[@davegarth]

Costco. I have Philips 9040s. They’re my first hearing aids and I really like them. Except, Bluetooth connectivity is not perfect.

[@HearingTracker]

Hey Dave! Yes I agree the BT has been a long standing issue... I and I'm not too sure it's been remedied. Matthew

[@watermain48]

I get my hearing aids from the VA. I get a new pair every four years and they are always the top tier technology level. Currently I'm wearing Phonak Lumity aids and my back up (which I prefer over the Phonaks) pair is Starkey Evolv AI.

[@carlacorral5992]

Great review covering the new Rexton hearing aid!!

[@HearingTracker]

Thanks for listening! Matthew

[@Phil_Vernon]

I have the Rexton Bi-cores. Already been back once for warranty repair and still have the glitch of dropping volume down in one or the other. So they are going back. Was going to then go with the Jabras but, lot of happy Phillips customers it seems.

[@davebagley6499]

Current Widex set from local audiologist. But her quote for new Signia 7IX is $6,500. IMHO that's ridiculous. So went to Costco for a test and am waiting for a call that Philips 9050 are in stock.

[@HearingTracker]

Thanks for the feedback Dave! Matthew

[@jackmortimer329]

You showed the telecoil sign. Is, or will there be a similar sign for the Auracast system?

[@paulfournier-kb1ue]

Just purchased The Costco Rexton Reach 2 weeks ago. This is my first rodeo with hearing aids so I don't have a reference point of comparison.

[@lyndayoung8761]

I am almost 3 mos new to HA with Jabra Pro 20 from Costco. My question concerns BT. I only Just learned you can only connect to one device at a time ie phone-HA, OR car-HA. What happens with Auracast if you are connected with BT phone-HA ABD a gate change announcement happens? Do you miss it if on your connected phone? Or if connected to phone when you get to airport do you have to switch to Auracast? Same question regarding TV streamer (don't have yet) and phone-HA connectivity. Thanks ps my BT phone-HA is excellent just sometimes a little issue tapping my ear to answer I've hit the button and hung up on caller 😮

[@wb9tpg1]

Ordered my very first hearing aids (Rexton Reach) at Costco last week. They should be in mid-July and hope they are as good as I've heard. I am very pleased with Costco so far but this is a new journey for me and I'm a little apprehensive.

[@HearingTracker]

It's normal to be a little apprehensive especially if it's a new world for you. Hopefully your aud will have plenty of time to hold your hand and walk you through the process! Matthew

[@Marvin-fn7ks]

My first were unitron from an independent ,then K7 from Costco, now Rexton bicore. Quite happy with the Rexton but wish I could use my apple watch to change things. I would be happier with replaceable batteries as they are a bit smaller and 1 week of battery life. I use closed domes and have no problem with the things you mentioned.

[@HearingTracker]

Thanks for sharing! Matthew

[@stephenswinbank5403]

I bought my KS10.RT from Costco in Watford 3 yrs ago & they are still going well. I do t plan to change them yet but I need your advice of which is the best one now…?

[@HearingTracker]

Hey Stephen! Sounds great, thanks for sharing. Best tech out of everything that's on the market? It really depends on your hearing loss and challenges, but my best recommendation wouldn't be available at Costco! Matthew

[@alrice7599]

Costco, Philips 9040

[@HearingTracker]

Thanks Alrice. Matthew

[@corvinyt]

HearLink 9030 Will the LE Audio overlay completely the legacy PA system, which will still be on for those without LE Audio? How will these PA systems handle the hybrid situation?

[@HearingTracker]

Hey Corvy, I think that we'll be sitting on telecoils until they're installed. The cool thing is Auracast transmitters are really simple to install! Matthew

[@corvinyt]

@@HearingTracker what I meant by hybrid situation was actually the echo effect due to the timing differences between LE Audio and the sound coming out of the PA speakers (not telecoil). That can be distracting, unless the hearing aids can cancel out the PA speakers.

[@charleswtuggle]

Costco and I am having a hearing test tomorrow.

[@HearingTracker]

How did it go? Matthew

[@charleswtuggle]

@@HearingTracker Went pretty well, My hearing has not gotten any worse over the last 3 years. I sent my KS10 hearing aids in for repair. I was going to get some new ones but the Phillips 9050 were not available yet so I decided to wait.

[@kittyfarkas]

Was expecting review of all 3 hearing aids. I got a Jabra few weeks ago from Costco.

[@JaimeMesChiens]

@kittyfarkas. How do you like your Jabra?

[@rconrad2k]

I got the Jabra Enhance Pro 20s last Friday. I had the KS10s. Frankly I am disappointed. The app is terrible. Even when the hearing aids are connected via the iPhone's hearing accessibility feature, the app often fails to connect. The Jabras have a hard time switching between streaming from my iPad to my iPhone and back, often requiring me to restart the Jabras and turn off the iPhone's Bluetooth so that I can do a fresh connect to the iPad. I also get a lot of static when listening to audiobooks. I also get static accompanying high pitch sounds, like water hitting the kitchen sink or the parrot whistling. The ability to hear my soft speaking wife is no different from the old KS10s. I'll give them a couple of weeks before returning them.

[@HearingTracker]

Today's vid is a Rexton Reach Launch vid... there should be two more to follow: 1. A review of the tech 2. A comparison of all three available at Costco. I hope that helps? Matthew
