The Inside Scoop on ReSound Hearing Aids: What You Need to Know
Explore all the top models from ReSound, including the latest Bluetooth LE Audio model ReSound Nexia.
Key Takeaways
- ReSound hearing aid prices range from $2000-$7,000 for the pair, and the costs vary based on the model, style, technology level, service package included (if any), and retailer.
- There are several ways to buy hearing aids, but ReSound recommends purchasing from an in-person retailer, as ReSound believes good results with their hearing aids is best accomplished through a personal relationship with a licensed professional.
- ReSound’s best hearing aid is the ReSound Sensia, and it’s the world’s smallest AI-powered hearing aid, and the only hearing aid with Auracast activated.
ReSound has a long history of leading the industry in Bluetooth innovation
A Pioneer in Bluetooth Connectivity
ReSound changed the hearing aid industry overnight in 2014 with their release of the world's first "Made for iPhone" hearing aid. 12 years later, they haven't taken their foot off the gas. ReSound's latest model, Sensia, is one of a small handful of hearing aids on the market that are compatible with the latest Bluetooth version, LE Audio.Bluetooth LE Audio provides several advantages over older versions of Bluetooth, including lower power consumption, improved audio quality, improved connectivity, and the most exciting advancement—Auracast™. Sensia hearing aids are one of only a few hearing aids on the market that currently have Auracast actually working in their aids- while all other competitors have “Auracast-ready” hearing aids that are set to have the Auracast activated at some future unknown date.
ReSound Relief app: Comprehensive tinnitus management with relaxation techniques, meditations, and personalized soundscapes
Comprehensive Solutions for Tinnitus Management
When it comes to helping hearing aid wearers struggling with tinnitus, many hearing aid manufacturers put a noise generator (masker) in their hearing aids and call it a day. There's nothing wrong with noise generators, tinnitus retraining therapy (TRT) is a proven way to relieve the symptoms of tinnitus.ReSound has taken things to the next level though, with their Relief app, which is by far and away the best rated hearing aid app on the market. The Relief app integrates with ReSound hearing aids and includes guided relaxation exercises, educational resources, and progress tracking to support overall stress reduction and tinnitus habituation.
ReSound's Smart app, rated 4.7 stars, elevates user experience with its easy management of hearing aid settings, distinguishing it from lower-rated competitors' apps.
A Winning App Experience
ReSound introduced the world's first Made for iPhone hearing aid back in 2014. That's given them a head start in perfecting their app, and boy does it show. The majority of hearing aid apps get very poor ratings, we're talking 2, 2.5 stars, with thousands of reviews.ReSound's Smart 3D app boasts a stellar 4.7-star rating, standing head and shoulders above competitors. The app is not just a fringe benefit but a core part of the ReSound experience, designed to make hearing aid management such as controlling the volume, program, and other settings as straightforward as possible.
ReSound hearing aids offer seamless Bluetooth connectivity for iOS users, while Android users might require an extra accessory, with a limitation of pairing with only one device at a time.
Room for Improvement
If you're an Apple/iOS user, you're going to love how your hearing aids interface with your devices. Bluetooth connectivity is simple and the connection is stable, allowing for the wireless streaming of music, phone calls, and more. On the other end, our customers with Android devices are not as lucky, and they often have to buy an additional Bluetooth streaming accessory in order to connect their hearing aids to their phone...and who wants to lug around another device? ReSound hearing aids also only connect with one device at a time, which can be inconvenient for those using multiple devices, as it requires frequent unpairing and repairing.Moreover, as of August of 2026, the brand falls short in providing a completely invisible-in-canal model in their latest line-up. For those who prioritize discretion in their hearing aids, this gap in offerings may direct them towards alternative brands that do provide such models.
Conclusion
There's a lot to like about ReSound. From leading the industry in Bluetooth, their user-friendly apps, excellent rechargeable battery life, innovative M&RIE receiver technology, the list goes on and on. If you're interested in small, custom, in-ear models though, we'd probably recommend checking out other brands, as ReSound doesn't have an invisible-in-canal model, and the next size up (completely-in-canal), is a bit bulkier than competitor devices, and doesn't include wireless connectivity.

ReSound hearing aid models compared
As of August 20, 2026, ReSound has several current hearing aid families to choose from, but for most people, we recommend sticking with Sensia or Enzo IA if you want ReSound’s newest technology and best overall performance.
Sensia is ReSound’s newest and most popular lineup, and it replaces Vivia as the company’s flagship family. Sensia is the line we’d recommend for the vast majority of people because it offers ReSound’s newest hearing-in-noise technology, including AcoustIQ sound sensing, advanced directional processing, and DNN-powered noise reduction on select models. Sensia is also available in a much wider range of styles than Vivia, including rechargeable and disposable-battery RIE models, custom in-the-ear models, and a CIC.
Vivia was ReSound’s previous flagship line and, until Sensia launched, was their best option for hearing in noise thanks to Intelligent Focus and DNN-powered noise reduction. Vivia is still a solid hearing aid, but as of August 20, 2026, it is now an older generation, and in most cases we’d recommend Sensia instead if the price difference is reasonable. Vivia is also limited to RIE ‘receiver-in-ear’ styles, so all models sit behind the ear.
If you have a severe to profound hearing loss and need more power than a receiver-in-ear hearing aid can provide, take a look at ReSound Enzo IA. Enzo IA is ReSound’s newest power BTE ‘behind-the-ear’ family and is designed specifically for people who need significantly more amplification. This is the model we’d look at first for severe or profound hearing loss rather than the older Enzo Q line.
ReSound also offers Savi, its more budget-friendly hearing aid family. Savi hearing aids share many of the same design and Bluetooth features as ReSound’s premium models, but they do not include the same advanced DNN-powered hearing-in-noise technology found in the top Sensia models. For someone who wants ReSound’s connectivity and sound quality at a lower price, Savi can still be a good option.

Expert reviews
Read what a few of our favorite ZipHearing providers have to say about ReSound
What I like
Resound is the primary brand I dispense in my office primarily because my customer’s prefer the sound quality of their devices over other brands and their devices have an extremely low repair rate. Resound is a pioneer in the industry, being the first manufacturer to develop a protective coating named iSolate that shields the internal and external electronics from liquids, moisture and dust, resulting in significantly fewer repairs. Resound is also one of the first manufacturers to release smart phone apps and rechargeable products to consumers and therefore those features perform well for customers.
What needs improving
Resound has the best custom product shell lab in the industry in my experience. Custom products fit the customer’s ear perfectly on the first fitting and I never have to send it back for a remake to fit better. However, Resound needs work on its wireless CIC’s. Currently, that style is only available with a large “antennae” that protrudes significantly out of the ear and is unsightly. Ultimately, I have to switch to another brand entirely for those customers who want a wireless CIC that is “invisible or nearly invisible”.
What I like
Resound offers a wide array of hearing devices including comprehensive technology levels for all types and degrees of hearing loss. Development of the 2.4GHz wireless platform revolutionized the industry providing next gen solutions for my patients to enjoy. ReSound was the first to develop innovative “made for iPhone” technology; using Bluetooth Low Energy including applications for cosmetically appealing customized in the canal devices. As a mobile audiologist, I find the ReSound live assist feature very useful for my patient population. The specialized software allows virtual follow up opportunities in a safe and convenient environment for a multitude of scenarios including testing in-situ audiometry.
What needs improving
Patients would like increased lithium rechargeable battery life, an ability to utilize multiple Bluetooth devices simultaneously, and to have sustainable bilateral connectivity for Android devices.
What I like
Resound is the brand that I fit my mom’s husband with, two of my aunts, my pastors’ wife, and is the brand of RIC aids that I personally wear. I work with all the major hearing aid manufacturers, but there are a number of things that I believe Resound does top-notch. Resound has the Best cell phone app for Iphone and Android. Resound also has an outstanding feedback management system that allows a patient to experience all of the amplification gain they need without feedback. Resound has an AUTOMATIC Noise-Filtering system that filters noise in seven separate environments. There is also an Environmental-Optimizer that filters and ENHANCES speech in seven different environments. No other manufacturer has systems like these. The icing on the cake for Resound is their new M&RIE microphone system that adds a third microphone in the ear on the end of the RIC Receiver to give additional sound pickup and more natural sound quality.
What needs improving
Resound has had problems in the past with their charger box for their rechargeable RIC aids. The USB mini plug-in connection was not as durable as possible. Resound has rectified this problem recently by switching to the USB-C plug-in connector that has been more reliable. Resound could give us dispensers more program choices to give to patients, such as Television. With my 30 years of experience, I often create and program a television program for my patients. We are still anxiously awaiting Resound to come out with “Custom” in the ear aids for their highly successful Resound “ONE” product line….hopefully this fall.
What I like
I’ve been fitting ReSound hearing aids since they first came out in the late 1980s. Their approach to hearing loss has consistently helped my patients hear better in most setting. Their wireless connectivity to smartphones and accessories is very easy for patients and has proven to be rock solid. In particular, their MultiMic provides exceptional speech discrimination in noise as well as the ability to connect to several other inputs, and is very reasonably priced compared to similar microphones. Finally, their partnership with Cochlear Americas for connectivity to Nucleus Cochlear Implants and BAHA processors is a great bimodal solution for our patients with implantable hearing systems.
What needs improving
We work with a lot of folks with severe hearing loss. I’d love it if ReSound would extend the range of their frequency lowering (Sound Shaper) down to 1500 Hz. In more than a few cases, this was a deciding factor to move the patient to another product.

What I like
Our patients usually have great success with Resound hearing aids. Resound has been an innovator, especially when it comes to natural sounding technology and direct streaming to smart phones. They offer a wide variety of models to fit almost every hearing loss and their sound quality. The battery life is great and it can connect to your TV with a TV streamer. Resound's newest Nexia hearing aid is their best effort ever allowing a person to hear and understand speech in noise. Nexia is also their smallest rechargeable hearing aid ever. This means they are very hard to notice when patients are wearing them. They work automatically to adjust for different environments and they still offer a great app enabling the patient to make adjustments so they can hear the way they want to.
What needs improving
While we really like the Resound ONE and the industry leading rechargeability with up to 30 hours of power from a 3 hour charge, we don't like that it's only available in the small over the ear style. Some people want a rechargeable custom design that fits only in the ear canal. In these cases we show the patients the pros and cons of that style and sometimes we have to order from a different manufacturer to get everything the patient wants.

ReSound hearing aid prices
The cost of ReSound hearing aids really depends on where and how you decide to buy them. If you're looking online, prices can start around $700, but if you go through a local retailer, they could run up to $4,000 each. This wide range comes from the different options available for purchasing.
Here’s a quick look at how various buying methods can affect the cost:
Direct-to-Consumer: If you've recently had a hearing test, you can send your results to an online ReSound retailer. They'll program the hearing aids and ship them directly to you, with some even offering remote adjustments down the road. This is usually the most budget-friendly option, but it lacks the in-person support that you’d get locally. ReSound actually suggests going with a personalized, in-person fitting for the best experience and ongoing care.
Local ReSound Provider: Going through a local provider can be more expensive, but it typically includes a few years of follow-up service, which can be a big plus if you think you’ll need regular adjustments. For example, HearingTracker.com mentions that a pair of ReSound Nexia hearing aids averages about $7,220. To find a provider near you, ReSound’s website offers a tool for scheduling consultations.
Discount Networks: If you’re familiar with hearing aids and comfortable with a bit of a hybrid approach, using a discount network might be a good balance between price and support. Services like ZipHearing can connect you with local ReSound partners that offer pre-negotiated discounts, sometimes saving you as much as 50% off the retail price. This option blends some of the benefits of both online and local purchasing.
