It's very powerful and it has amazing detail

Review by: Adam from WA
Model: Oticon Xceed 3 UP
Bought: Jul 2021

Hi, my name is Adam. I live in Seattle Washington. I was born and grew up deaf I have a profound hearing loss. Both of my ears have 120 dB hearing loss.With a hearing aid I generally can hear about 60 dB. I went to a Deaf school and back then I had a body aid with wires and ear pieces.It was pretty big and it had these wires and eventually I got hearing aids behind my ears. I’ve had analog hearing aids. I had digital hearing aids. I really enjoy listening to environmental sounds and usually I do pretty well. I'm unable to really understand words. I've had lots of different hearing aids but this most recent one I just got, this. It’s called an Oticon Xceed 3 BTE UP… WOW!! It's interesting because I really didn't experience a lot of the things before, but now I hear a lot more. I think it's more powerful but it also has a lot more detail. I'll give you a few examples…In the morning when I'm cooking breakfast… I've cracked eggs and I can see them bubbling but with this new hearing aid wow I can actually hear the the sizzle of the eggs! That was the 1st time I ever experienced that. Very very inspiring. I went to a friend's house this summer. It was a beautiful warm summer day. We are sitting outside chatting and I started hearing something that I thought was static or something. I asked my friend since I wasn’t sure what was going on. I had never heard anything like that before and I was hoping it wasn't something wrong with my new hearing aid. My friend said “no no no no, what you're hearing is the highway, the freeway from way over there and the wind is bringing the sound.”I was flabbergasted! I had never heard traffic from the freeway before. Another example… I love hiking! I like looking at the trees. You know the Seattle area has beautiful trees! So I was going by walking through the forest, and my friend was with me. And I heard this weird sound that had a “wrack, wrack, wrack” I asked him what it was and and he said “Oh yeah that's two crows over there fighting.” I couldn't believe it. I had never ever heard birds before. Those high pitches were never available to me! This is really an amazing and inspiring hearing aid! When I'm driving… this is interesting.. you know when you turn on your turn signal ? I did that and I heard “click, click, click” WOW! I had never heard the turn signal on my car before. Those are the kinds of examples that really make me feel good about this new hearing aid. It's very powerful and it has amazing detail. I would highly recommend for people who have profound hearing loss. This Oticon XCeed … I would recommend it very highly. It has benefited me greatly and I really wish you good luck in deciding on your new hearing aid.

The most powerful hearing aid on the market today

Review by: Ylla from WA
Model: Oticon Xceed 1 UP
Bought: Feb 2021

I’m Ylla, I’m 71 years old, I have a progressive hearing loss that started in my teens. In my early 30s I got my first pair of hearing aids, so I’ve been wearing hearing aids for about 40 years. People have asked me in the last 10 years or so, “why do you even bother wearing hearing aids?” It’s true that now I have a profound hearing loss in both ears so I am essentially deaf, so why would I wear hearing aids or buy a new pair of hearing aids? I find that hearing aids are important socially, wearing them is how I can tell how my voice sounds, whether I’m yelling, whether I’m whispering, I can also tell if someones speaking to me, I may not always be able to understand what they’re saying because my hearing loss is so profound, but I can tell when they’re talking to me, I can tell if my grandkids are calling me from another room, or crying. I also wear them all the time, even when I’m not going to be in a social setting because when the brain stops hearing it also stops listening and so, that adds another layer of deafness. My hearing aids are important for me as far as safety is concerned, because I can hear loud noises like dogs barking or a car honking. Recently I heard that there was a brand new technology in power aids, which is the kind I have to wear, and so I decided to replace the ones I’d been wearing for 10 years. Now I have a budget and so I went online to see if I could find a good price. That’s when I found ZipHearing. I was able to get just about any, well really any manufacturer I’ve worn in the past 40 years, I could get through ZipHearing, at a major discount, so this was important to me. ZipHearing set me up with a no obligation appointment at a local hearing center. I dealt with an excellent, very experienced dispenser who tested my hearing aid made recommendations. I chose the hearing aids I wanted, made the purchase, and was fitted within a couple of weeks. I decided to go with a set of the Oticon Xceed hearing aids. In the past I’ve worn Starkey, Bernafon, and ReSound, so why go with Oticon this time? Their Xceed hearing aid has state of the art technology and is considered the most powerful hearing aid on the market today. Oticon is a Danish company that’s been manufacturing hearing aids for over 100 years, so I know they’re very good. I was offered choices of 2 different models and 3 different levels, and with the discount I was receiving, because of ZipHearing ,I was able to purchase the very best model, and the best level, and stay within my original budget. I’ll show you my hearing aid. This is what it looks like. In the past the hearing aids I’ve worn, well in the past 20 years, they’ve all been behind the ear, because that’s what power aids are. And my last pair was bigger than these and so it made my ears stick out. That’s one of the reasons I like these so much, they’re very comfortable, they’re really great to wear, I hardly know I have them on most of the time. Besides my everyday setting, my aids have a program for blocking background noise if the setting is very noisy, like in a restaurant, and I’ve used programming like this in the past, but these are way more effective at doing it than the hearing aids I’ve had in the past. Over the years I’ve dealt with a lot of audiologists and dispensers and this one was the best I’ve ever seen at fitting which was so important. All of my extra appointments where I have to go in and make adjustments, would’ve been covered for free with ZipHearing, but I haven’t needed any. I also have a great loss and damage coverage, I have a really good warranty, I got a year’s worth of free batteries. It’s been an excellent experience and I would recommend ZipHearing to anybody who’s thinking about getting a hearing aid.

Fit perfectly

The sound quality of the Oticon instruments I purchased is an improvement over the instruments I previously wore. The new instruments fit perfectly and are very comfortable. I as especially impressed by the battery life. I have a severe hearing loss and the BTE units utilize 675 battery.

Good, with issues

Mine are "power" hearing aids with the custom mold domes. My hearing has substantially improved.
However, I find them a little difficult to put into my ears, and I'm not sure I understand the buttons and how they work.
In addition, the batteries are very difficult to install.

Common questions about Oticon Xceed hearing aids

Bluetooth / ConnectivityDisposable BatteriesControls/AppsMiscellaneous

Choose questions category:

Is this hearing aid Bluetooth compatible?
Xceed is Made for iPhone, which means it can connect directly with iPhones to stream music, phone calls, and more. If you don't have an iPhone, you can still get Bluetooth functionality via the ConnectClip accessory.
Can this hearing aid be paired directly to my Bluetooth TV?
No. To stream audio from the TV you'll need the TV Adapter 3.0
Does this hearing aid allow for hands-free phone calls?
Only via the ConnectClip accessory. You'll hear the caller's voice streamed through your hearing aids, but in order for them to hear you, you'd have to either hold the phone to your mouth, or if you want hands-free calling, clip the ConnectClip to your shirt and talk into that. The ConnectClip has a microphone on it that will pick up your voice for the caller, allowing you to keep the phone in your pocket/purse, etc.
How long do the batteries last?
Depending on a number of factors, the size 13 battery should last about 5-6 days, and the 675 will get you a day or two more.
How will I know when it's time to change the battery?
A few hours before the battery dies, you'll hear three steady beeps. This will usually happen a few times. Then, right before the battery dies, you'll hear four descending tones.
Are the batteries hard to change?
No. Most people can change these batteries just fine. However, if you're concerned about difficulty changing batteries, talk to your hearing provider to see if the Xceed UP 675 will work for you. That battery is the largest size you can get and will be the easiest of all sizes to change.
How can I control this hearing aid, and which settings can I control?
You can control the volume and program of this hearing aid using the onboard rockerswitch, Remote Control 3.0, or the app. If you use the app, you can also control background noise reduction and tinnitus relief sounds.
How do I turn this hearing aid on and off?
To turn the hearing aid on, simply close the battery door. Opening the battery door will turn the hearing aid off.
Does the app have a “Find My Hearing Aid” feature?
Yes. However, in order to use this feature, you wouldn've had to have setup the app and paired your hearing aids to your phone, prior to losing them. Once the hearing aids have been paired, if you lose them, the app will help you locate them, so long as the hearing aids are powered on. If the hearing aids are powered off, or if their batteries have died, the app will show you the last location of the hearing aids when they were powered on.
Is this hearing aid CROS compatible?
Yes, both Xceed models are compatible with the CROS devices listed above on this page. Note that Oticon's CROS device is a receiver-in-canal (RIC) style device, as opposed to the Xceed, which is a BTE.
Can I get this hearing aid with a telecoil?
Yes, both Xceed models come with a telecoil.

TV Adapter 3.0, $249

Plug it into the back of your TV or soundbar and the audio will be streamed directly to your hearing aids. Others can keep the TV at their preferred volume level, while you set your own volume via the app or on the hearing aids themselves.
RATING2
The image of ConnectClip hearing aids
ConnectClip, $249

ConnectClip, $249

ConnectClip has two features. First, it's most commonly used as a Bluetooth streamer that allows you to stream audio from your phone to your hearing aids. If you have an iPhone, you don't need this, because iPhones stream directly to Oticon hearing aids. If you have an Android or any other phone and you want to stream from your phone, you need this. Even if you have an iPhone, it still may make sense to get this, because it does allow for hands free phone calls. Wear it around your neck and the microphone picks up your voice for the person on the other end of the call to hear, so you don't have to hold you the phone to your mouth when speaking. The second feature of ConnectClip is its ability to work as a remote microphone. If you have a hard time hearing in noise this accessory is a lifesaver. Attach the ConnectClip to a companion's shirt and their voice will stream directly to your hearing aids. Their voice will come through much stronger than all the competing noise in the environment.
RATING3
The image of Remote Control 3.0 hearing aids
Remote Control 3.0, $199

Remote Control 3.0, $199

You probably don't need this. Most people use the app to control their hearing aids, and if not the app, then the push button on the hearing aid itself. But if neither of those suit you, this remote is a simple way to control the volume and program.
