RE: Lexie Bose Lumen, B1 or B2 Hearing Aids

2023-11-01 Thread Richard
With the Lexie Bose unit, the user is supposed to be able to make adjustments 
across the bandwidth of the hearing aid, a little like an equalizers on audio 
devices. The big unknown for me right now is how accessible those controls are 
in IOS.

My problem with over the counter hearing aids was that we could not adjust 
them. I could, of course, increase or decrease volume, although I was limited 
on how much I could decrease it.

Has anyone had experience with these over-the-counter hearing aids, especially 
using them with an iPhone? I am considering them as I tryout hearing aids.
* They operate using an IOS app. Whether the app is compatible with Voice Over 
and whether its audio will stream by Bluetooth will be important. 
* At least the B2 is supposed to stream phone audio to the hearing aids, 
although it's not clear whether Voice over speech will  stream using Bluetooth.
* These units, although expensive, although far less costly than prescription 
hearing aids.

I  ran a Google search for Lexie, IOS, and Voice Over, although there were no 
matches.

QVC has the Lexie B2 on sale, but They're still expensive. QVC says they can be 
returned until the end of January. If I buy I'll confirm that.

I will appreciate any information from users, if available on this list.
