The Jabra Enhance Plus is a mid-priced OTC hearing aid priced at $799, earning a B grade with a SoundScore of 3.7/5 in our lab testing. This visible-in-ear device ranks #28 of 65 OTC hearing aids tested, placing it in the top 42% of its category. In our testing, the Enhance Plus demonstrated notable strengths in speech clarity and audio streaming. Speech in quiet scored a strong 4.2/5, measuring 1.36 points above the category average. Music streaming performance was equally impressive at 3.8/5, a full 1.88 points above average—making this a solid choice for users who prioritize phone audio streaming. Feedback handling was excellent at 4.7/5. However, the device has a significant weakness: own-voice comfort scored just 0.3/5, falling 2.21 points below the category average. This suggests pronounced occlusion effects that may make the user's own voice sound boomy or unnatural. Speech in noise performance was mixed at 2.1/5—above the category average by 0.62 points, but still limited in absolute terms for challenging listening environments. The Enhance Plus showed meaningful improvement with tuning, jumping from a normalized Initial Score of 3.6/5 to a Tuned Score of 4.2/5. Buyers should note that several competitors in the same price range score higher, including the Sony CRE-E10 at 4.66/5. This device is best suited for users who prioritize music streaming and speech clarity in quieter settings, and who can tolerate own-voice occlusion.

The Jabra Enhance Pro 20 at Costco is a behind-the-ear prescription hearing aid priced at $1,600, placing it in the premium tier. With a SoundScore of 4.0/5 and an A grade, it ranks #25 of 39 prescription hearing aids tested in our lab. In our testing, this device demonstrates notable strengths in own-voice comfort, scoring 3.5/5—0.80 points above the category average. This solid performance means wearers may find their own voice sounds more natural compared to many competitors. Feedback handling is excellent at 4.8/5, slightly above the category average, indicating reliable stability during movement and phone use. However, the Enhance Pro 20 shows limitations in challenging listening environments. Speech-in-noise performance scores just 1.1/5, falling 0.97 points below the category average—a significant gap that may affect conversations in restaurants, social gatherings, or other noisy settings. Speech-in-quiet is solid at 3.2/5 in absolute terms, though still 0.17 points below the category average. Music streaming scores 2.8/5, which is above the category average but only mixed in absolute terms. This device suits users who prioritize comfortable own-voice perception and excellent feedback control, and who spend most listening time in quieter environments. Those frequently navigating noisy situations may want to consider alternatives like the Rexton Reach R-Li T80 at Costco, which scored 4.56/5 in our testing. The Enhance Pro 20 includes rechargeable batteries, iPhone and Android streaming, and hands-free functionality.
