Jabra Enhance Select 200 vs Zepp Clarity One

The Jabra Enhance Select 200 is a premium-priced OTC hearing aid that earns a B grade with a SoundScore of 3.9/5 in our lab testing, ranking in the top 35% of OTC devices. At $1,695, it sits at the higher end of the OTC market and has earned HearAdvisor's Expert's Choice Award in both 2023 and 2024. This behind-the-ear device delivers its strongest performance in speech clarity during quiet environments, scoring 3.5/5—a solid result that sits 0.67 points above the OTC category average. Own-voice comfort is another highlight at 3.4/5, which is 0.89 points above average, meaning wearers are less likely to experience the bothersome "talking in a barrel" sensation. Music streaming scores 2.6/5, which is 0.68 points above the category average, though still mixed in absolute terms. The device shows some limitations in challenging listening situations. Speech in noise performance is low at 1.4/5, sitting slightly below the category average. Feedback handling scores a strong 4.0/5 in absolute terms, though this falls 0.54 points below the OTC average of 4.54/5. The Enhance Select 200 includes modern conveniences like rechargeable batteries and streaming compatibility with both iPhone and Android devices, plus hands-free calling capability. However, budget-conscious shoppers should note that several devices in this price range—including the Lucid Tala and Audicus Omni 2—achieve higher scores, and alternatives like the Lucid Engage offer similar sound quality at lower prices. This device is best suited for listeners who prioritize clear speech in quieter settings and natural own-voice quality over performance in noisy environments.

The Zepp Clarity One is a mid-priced OTC hearing aid with an invisible-in-ear design, priced at $699. In HearAdvisor's lab testing, it earned a B grade with a SoundScore of 3.9/5, ranking #23 among 65 OTC hearing aids tested—placing it in the top 34% of its category. This device demonstrates notable strengths in specific areas of sound performance. Speech clarity in quiet environments scores a solid 3.7/5, coming in 0.95 points above the category average. Own-voice comfort is another highlight at 3.8/5, exceeding the category average by 1.29 points—a meaningful advantage for users sensitive to how their own voice sounds while wearing hearing aids. Feedback handling is excellent at 5.0/5, among the best we've measured. However, the Zepp Clarity One shows limitations in other areas. Speech understanding in noisy environments scores 1.4/5, slightly below the category average and low in absolute terms. Music streaming capability is notably absent, scoring 0.0/5—well below the already modest category average of 1.92/5. Users who prioritize phone audio streaming should consider this significant limitation. The Zepp Clarity One may suit consumers who primarily need hearing support in quieter settings like one-on-one conversations at home, and who value discreet, in-ear styling with reliable feedback control. Those frequently navigating noisy environments or wanting to stream music and calls should explore alternatives.
