OK, so, it’s wrong to have favourites! Is it really though? I wouldn’t make these hearing aids of the month every month because there really are so many great hearing aids on the market. Most of them sold by us! However, maybe it is a case of ‘better the devil you know’ but I really do think these are some of the best hearing aids ever made.
If hearing aids were superheroes, the Oticon Opn S1 would be the smooth-talking, gadget-packed Avenger of the bunch. Sleek, brainy, and surprisingly discreet, these little devices don’t just help you hear—they help you listen. And yes, there’s a difference.
The first thing you notice with the Opn S1 is how natural everything sounds. Instead of giving you that “tunnel of sound” effect some aids produce, these widen the stage. You can pick up on the rustle of leaves and the punchline of your friend’s joke at the same time. In a noisy café, it’s like having your own personal sound engineer who dials down the chaos and lifts up the voices you care about.
They’re also packed with some pretty sci-fi tech: the BrainHearing™ system constantly scans your environment 360 degrees per second (imagine a tiny sonar system for your ears). The result? You can follow conversations without feeling like you’re running an Olympic-level marathon of concentration.
Bonus points for connectivity—these pair with iPhones and many Android devices, so you can stream calls, music, or your latest audiobook straight into your ears. It’s a bit like having AirPods… that happen to also fix your hearing.
Comfort-wise, they’re feather-light and easy to forget you’re wearing, until someone whispers something from across the room and you actually catch it. Battery options come in both rechargeable (pop them in their charger overnight like a phone) and disposable, depending on your style.
Are they perfect? Nearly! Once upon a time the price tag might make your wallet whimper, and in very chaotic environments (singing in a choir, at a sports centre, pub etc), even the Opn S1 can struggle. But compared to many others, it holds its ground impressively. However, refurbished at 60% less than original RRP and bearing in mind they are hearing aids and not new ears, we think they come as close as possible to it.
Are the Oticon OPNS1 hearing aids the best hearing aids in town? We certainly think so this month, which is why we picked’em! There really are so many great hearing aids around. However, beautifully refurbished, these have to be amongst the front runners.
