Costco to get Jabra Enhance Pro 20

I think Front Focus and Restaurant are pretty similar in function. Instead of one of those, I recommend Outdoor (if suitable for your life)–I find it’s great for hearing a walk-companion while minimizing traffic noise etc.

Is there a list of standard “Programs” that the Jabra Enhance Pro 20 supports?

Any way for an end-user to get these set?

Here is some additional information from the NRF Connect app.
I checked my Pixel Tablet a few hours ago and it showed the same results as my phone.
LE Audio supported YES
LE Audio Broadcast Source supported NO
LE Audio Broadcast Assistant supported NO
Max connected audio devices 5

Since then I got the Android 14 December update and unfortunately the NRF Connect results remained the same. I had hoped it might have shown a change to the additional YES that @MDB has on his Samsung phone.

Has anyone with Jabra EP 20s and a Samsung phone gotten them to pair and operate hands-free?

My guess is that the Samsung S24 that will be released in late Jan or Feb will be the phone that works with Pro 20 and Auracast. In the video linked below, the phone used looks like the leaked images of the S24. It is rumored to have Bluetooth LE 5.4 that is supposed to work with the Pro 20.

I suspect Costco renamed my “Hear in Noise” to “Restaurant” and “Outdoor” to “Front Focus” for some reason. IDK, but I will have to ask them.

Thanks for the info.

The Jabra’s have one button. I do think I heard you could program each button for a short press action and a long press action, and I would think the rechargeable w/ the accelerometer could be programmed for taps and double taps.

Not sure for the midpoint tone, I like that on my Phonak Marvel’s.

For me, I’m not too concerned w/ the buttons on the hearing aid, as long as I can answer the phone and hang up. I plan on using the resound app on my iphone and my apple watch. On the watch I plan on putting a link to the app on my watch face, so I would think volume or program adjustments should be easy to do from my wrist. At least that’s what I hope.

Those were the program names for the Enhance Pro 10. The programs that I listed (All Around, Hear in Noise, Music, Acoustic Phone, Outdoor) are the latest. Maybe you need to update your app.

Thanks Michael and Jim,

My Prezas have rocker switches. Short press up/down for volume. Long press forward changes programs in one direction only. Long press backwards enables streaming (like from a multimic).

My guess is that they haven’t changed these.

According to this link (about 2/3 down where they talk about LE Audio and Auracast) all versions of S23 are compatible and that Nexia requires BT 5.3. I’m guessing all versions of S24 will work too, but for now the only phones Resound claims work with LE Audio are all versions of S23

ReSound Smart Hearing aids enable you to stream from virtually any audio source and personalize your sound on the go. Find more information here.

I have been using the Jabra Enhance Pro 20’s for 3 days with a Samsung S23 Ultra running Android 14. You can make hands free phone calls using the Bluetooth LE Audio, but it seems a bit flaky so far. When a phone call comes in, I hear the 20’s connect before the phone even rings, but after answering some seconds go by before you can speak to or hear the caller. By then I am usually flailing around trying to switch to speaker phone. Because of this, I haven’t got the technique down enough to be sure it’s not just me being impatient! I will report back after a bit more experience.

The Jabra Pro 20 with the telecoil use a Size 13 battery. They are 30% +/- larger than the rechargeable mini version. The Size 13 batteries last 8 to 9 days without streaming.

The app connects to my Android 13 phone with Bluetooth LE and the sound is okay but not as good as my Motorola earbuds. I don’t keep the aids connected to my phone because the notifications for emails and texts are too bothersome to me.

I’ve had the Jabra Pro 20 for almost 4 weeks now. I like them so far. The Hear In Noise is significantly better than my previous KS-4s.

The 4 standard programs are:
All-Around, Hear in Noise, Music, & Outdoors.

The Enhance Pro App lets you raise and lower the volume and has an audio equalizer for bass, mid and treble. Also in Hear in Noise has two adjustments for Noise Reduction level and Wind Noise Reduction as does the All-Around and Outdoors. The Music program has Bass and Treble boost.

I had my first adjustment on 12/6 and they only complaint I had the HIS address was to adjust the feedback from vertical surfaces.

At this point the aids are keepers.

Consider changing your notification settings on the phone, and leaving your HAs connected. I changed my notifications to banners with no audio notification. Works much better for me to have turned almost all apps to no audio notifications. But in the end, do what suits you best!

I’ll give it a try. What i did notice is when the HAs were connected was my phone battery was used up a lot faster.

Probably the same for an Android phone. But for the iPhone in Settings, under Battery, one can see what % of the phone battery energy expended each app has used for the last 24 hours or the last 10 days. My iPhone says that the ReSound Smart 3D app has used ~1% of my iPhone battery expenditure in the last 10 days. For the Apple Podcast app, which would reflect streaming (one to two hours a day), the Battery settings report says I’ve used 5% of my battery expenditure in the last 10 days. By contrast, my Home & Lock screen used 24% of my battery expenditure. So, even when streaming on an iPhone, my ReSound Omnias are not consuming much of the battery energy.
