The Jabra Enhance Select 700 is a premium-priced OTC hearing aid available at $1,795, earning a B grade with a SoundScore of 3.8/5 in our lab testing. This behind-the-ear device ranks #26 of 65 OTC hearing aids tested, placing it in the top 38% of the category. In our testing, the Enhance Select 700 shows notable strengths in own-voice comfort, scoring 3.7/5—a solid result that sits 1.19 points above the category average. This makes it a comfortable choice for users sensitive to the "hollow" sound of their own voice that some hearing aids produce. Feedback handling is excellent at 5.0/5, meaning users can expect stable performance without whistling during typical daily activities. Speech clarity in quiet environments is solid at 3.1/5, coming in 0.27 points above the category average. However, speech understanding in noisy settings is a weakness, scoring just 1.0/5—falling 0.48 points below the category average. Users who frequently encounter restaurants, group gatherings, or other challenging listening environments may find this limitation significant. Music streaming quality is mixed at 2.5/5, though still 0.58 points above the category average. At this price point, buyers should note that several same-priced alternatives deliver stronger overall performance, including the Lucid Tala (4.63/5) and Audicus Omni 2 (4.61/5). The Enhance Select 700 is best suited for users who prioritize own-voice comfort and feedback-free wear over speech-in-noise performance, and who value Jabra's established brand and support ecosystem.

At $399, this behind-the-ear rechargeable device offers solid overall performance with some standout strengths. The Omni's most impressive feature is its music streaming quality, scoring 3.6/5—a full 1.68 points above the OTC category average. This makes it one of the better choices for users who prioritize streaming audio from their iPhone or Android device. Feedback handling is excellent at 5.0/5, meaning users can expect stable performance without whistling during typical daily activities. Speech performance shows a more nuanced picture. Speech in quiet scores a solid 3.0/5, sitting 0.21 points above category average. Speech in noise, however, scores 1.9/5—above the category average by 0.40 points, but still low in absolute terms. Users in challenging listening environments like busy restaurants should set realistic expectations. Own-voice comfort scores 2.7/5, above category average but only mixed in absolute terms. The Zepp Clarity Omni is best suited for budget-conscious consumers who value excellent streaming audio quality and reliable feedback control, and who primarily need hearing support in quieter environments. Those frequently encountering noisy settings may want to consider alternatives with stronger speech-in-noise performance.
