Jabra Enhance Select 200 vs Widex Moment

The Jabra Enhance Select 200 is a premium-priced OTC hearing aid that earned a B grade with a SoundScore of 3.9/5 in our lab testing, placing it in the top 35% of the OTC hearing aid category. At $1,695, this behind-the-ear device offers solid performance in several key areas, though it faces stiff competition from higher-scoring alternatives at similar price points. In our testing, this device showed particular strength in speech clarity during quiet listening situations, scoring 3.5/5—0.67 points above the category average. Own-voice comfort was another highlight at 3.4/5, finishing 0.89 points above average, which suggests users may find their own voice sounds more natural compared to many competitors. Music streaming scored 2.6/5, which is above the category average by 0.68 points but still only mixed in absolute terms. The device's limitations become apparent in challenging listening environments. Speech in noise scored just 1.4/5, slightly below the category average and low in absolute terms—a consideration for users who frequently encounter noisy restaurants or social gatherings. Feedback handling scored 4.0/5, which is strong in absolute terms though 0.54 points below the category average. The Enhance Select 200 has earned Expert's Choice Awards in both 2023 and 2024, reflecting its reliable real-world performance. With Bluetooth streaming for both iPhone and Android, rechargeable batteries, and hands-free capability, it offers modern convenience features. However, shoppers should note that several competitors in this price range—including the Lucid Tala and Audicus Omni 2—scored notably higher in our testing. This device is best suited for users who prioritize speech clarity in quieter environments and own-voice comfort over performance in noisy situations.

Music streaming quality is another highlight at 3.5/5, which is 0.74 points above average for prescription devices. Speech in noise performance scores 2.4/5, which is above the category average by 0.30 points, though mixed in absolute terms. Feedback handling presents an interesting picture: the Moment scores a strong 4.0/5 in absolute terms, though this falls 0.72 points below the category average of 4.72/5. Own-voice comfort is solid at 3.0/5, sitting 0.30 points above the category average. The Widex Moment is well-suited for users who prioritize natural sound quality and enjoy streaming music or podcasts from their devices.
