Interesting article. I don’t know if the prices quoted are for on or a pair. Also, failing to mention Costco as a deterrent to aids is a major factual error, IMO.

I believe Costco only sells the Lexie B2 hearing aid online for $980.

For five to six hundred dollars more, you get a 180 day trial period, a lost hearing aid replacement warranty, a longer warranty, Bluetooth Audio, and dome replacements, a premium hearing aid and in-person help for questions and issues.

I think the extra warranty coverage and Bluetooth utility would make a difference for a lot of folks.

Yep again that’s right, anybody who wants the best deal for premium models is obviously gonna go premium over any , actually I think most OTC are over priced for what you get at the moment! (bar the Airpods, as they seem to be pretty reasonable)
