Cheap, poor quality with substandard sound quality
For £64 this is very poor quality. This was a Christmas gift for an elderly relative, and I’d expected much better for the cost.

I can hear again!
So this little guy saved my life! - I haven't tried other units like this - but I did some research and this one came out on top for me.I currently have a lingering sinus infection which has beautifully shut off both my eustachian tubes making me only able to hear mumbled noise. I've lost perhaps 80% of my hearing... until I get some kind of fun treatment at the E.N.T. clinic in a couple of weeks time. So.... the reason I describe this for you is that it shows that I'm not really in the market for an expensive hearing aid just yet since my hearing is highly likely to recover in a few weeks. But that's still a long time to wait... and I can't hear normal conversation at all. I went to a funeral the other day and sat next to a bunch of old codgers.... and they heard the whole service.... whereas I picked up a few words.... so I definitely had to do something!When this arrived, I immediately used it with my Bose noise cancelling headphones - and that's a pretty good idea to reduce background noise (coz the LH10 won't do this for you) - but actually, I was also pretty happy for the reasonably cheap but functional ear buds that ship with this too - I wore them in (just one) ear for several hours yesterday and they totally did the job. When I plucked it out at the end of the day, it left the white bud in my ear canal... so that was fun. I've adjusted how I hold it when plucking now!If you're not used to using things like this then you should know that you get ambient noise (of course) which is also non-directional. This includes rustling of clothes and lots of clattering etc. Worth putting up if you can actually hear and understand people talking though. The quality of the signal is totally fit for purpose and the omni-directional nature of the in-built mic is good. I would have loved to find an external mic for this so that I could pin it to my lapel.... there is a TV mic accessory which I haven't looked into. I do have a tiny wired condenser mic somewhere in the house I might try - if I find it... and if it's cool, I'll update the review here... I think you need a 2.5mm plug for it though.I think the target audience here is the 'aged' or general 'hard of hearing' amongst us... especially if you want to augment your current hearing aid.... watch TV without subtitles... that sort of thing. But for me, as a 51 year old hearing person... with a condition... this is a winner device! When my hearing recovers, I'll keep this in a box for when things change for me again. Maybe try the induction loop assist element to this next time.Having the tone option (and LR balance) hidden underneath the battery cover was a little odd I thought... but actually, I played with the tone (which you have to do on a pot with a watch screwdriver - not supplied... by the way), and it didn't really make a lot of difference I thought. It was hardly a way to select optimum frequencies anyway.... perhaps useful if you're only going to use this for the TV or something and want to optimise one environment. Basically, it's a little pointless I thought.... perhaps I just couldn't hear the difference since I'm deaf!Having a bluetooth option would have been SO good. But hey.The only reason I didn't give this five stars was the plastic belt clip. This is cheap and substandard. The thing is - I'm off to meetings... I'm flying to Rome next week... I was at an event yesterday....and I have to wear this as I walk around at chest height - adjusting the volume frequently. The term 'belt clip' immediately shows a small conflict of ergonomic positioning. Having a thing like this on your belt would not really work too good. It made me think of 'Mrs. Richards' in the famous Faulty Towers episode 'Communication Problems' you're bound to know it! It was the best of all of them that one! -Anyway, this is why I was interested in a clip on external omni-mic - so I could hide the rest of the device. And actually a volume control on the headphone cable would be good for this purpose too.... it's just isn't quite set up for the active person who needs to wear this out and about. That said, I've made it work for me. I attached a clip to the lanyard grooves and now I march around with this thing dangling off my chest everywhere I go - inside and out. it's a little ungainly - but I can hear what people are saying to me! Worth it!By the way, tiny lanyard grooves are supplied... lanyard is not. £50 is a good price for this I guess... but guys... come on! - It's just a lanyard!The rechargeable battery seems to last a good long time... not exhausted it yet to see... but there's an easy option to swap out for AAA batteries too - so this is well thought out. I'll be carrying spare batts with me to the airport just in case! - You 'can' use it whilst it's charging by the way.... but you'll prob get a mains-loop type hum thrown into the mix if you do. the device has a mini-USB socket for in-unit charging and a standard mini-usb to standard USB cable is supplied (no plug though - which is becoming normal now for things like this).

Useless
As soon as the unit is switched on there is a loud hissing sound from the earpieces which drowns out everything else. It is unusable.

Great buy - really works
Bought this for my elderly mother. She can hear! She’s stopped using the £4,000 ones we bought from a shop a few years back due to constant problems with the aids and it never being resolve. Try these before you purchase mega expensive ones.

Sound Amplifier
My husband wears hearing aids, but still needed the volume on the tv turned up really high. This was really uncomfortable for anyone else in the room. I bought these amplifiers, just on the off chance that they might work. I’m delighted to say that for him they’ve worked a treat. Would definitely recommend….

Great little device for elderly watching TV
I bought it for my mum, who has lost %50 percent of her hearing, She can now watch TV in a way that her neighbour next door can sleep...

Do not buy this, it feels cheap and the sound quality is not good.
This product is substandard. The box was opened, pieces were missing and the item was damaged. See photo to see where the headphones cable was cut. The charging cable is missing. As far as I can tell, the quality is poor as the handset feels very light weight and does not have a quality feel to it. I shall be returning this.
