Lucid Hearing Reviews

When I went to see my ENT doctor and we went over and tested several different hearing aids, they talked about the options. One of the features of the hearing aid that I have now is the quality is comparable with the pricing. It was definitely in a decent price range for the quality of it, but for an average person trying to do something like that, it's a little high on the pricing, but I fortunately had someone that helped me buy them.

So far, I've been happy with my hearing aids. I liked the ability of being able to connect the hearing aids to my phone. That was a nice feature, but I don't utilize that a lot anymore, because with the app, it became complicated. Sometimes, it would get stuck and I'd have to shut both my hearing aids off, turn off the app, then turn them all back on. Other than that, my hearing aids definitely improved things for me 100%, because I could hear people. I could also hear words and sounds that I didn't realize how much I wasn't hearing until then.

One thing I do like about my new hearing aids though, is that I'm able to keep up with them. They are easy to use. They come in a battery pack. I'm able to turn them on and off. I'll disconnect the batteries. I also do like that they're little, but they're kind of big at the same time. So, it's a disadvantage and an advantage again, though. And then you're gonna use certain ones. I want the ones that go inside my ears but unfortunately, due to my hearing loss, I have to get the one with the wire that comes out of my ears.

My hearing aids were tuned, but I went to Lucid about a couple of weeks ago because I kept hearing background noise more than I was hearing people talk. I would like people talk more than background. I could hear the music. I wanna be able to hear people more than I hear the background. The people at Lucid were very helpful. They gave me so much knowledge. I'm glad I found them. They were making sure that I was good at all times. The guy even has hearing aids. So, that made it much better to work with somebody who had hearing aids just like me, who had a similar hearing loss and was able to understand where I was coming from.

The phone I had at the time worked with the hearing aid. I ended upgrading to a phone and now I can do all the features with it. They have directions on the app but I get confused easily even though I'm still in the tech age. I had to go in-store because it needed an upgrade. Then there was something wrong with the hearing aid, which they said they have not seen in three years. It was something they had experienced with some old tech they had in their hearing aids. It was a goofy upgrade that the hearing aid needed and my phone as well. The lady was able to explain some stuff to me that made a lot more sense than it did trying to read it. I didn't know the difference between streaming and ambience but she showed me. In loud environments, I would turn the hearing aids off. But now I know how to do the ambience versus the streaming. I just move it over to streaming if it's way too loud and turning the volume down isn't enough.

I've had an ear infection that lasted three weeks so that was three weeks that I couldn't use my hearing aids. After that was when I had the problem with the connection and something inside the hearing aid was wrong. I've lost two months in there that I could not use my hearing aid. It was hard to get in and get it fixed. With all the change in the phone and in the hearing aid and the ear infection, I have noticed little difference because then I had to learn how to work the phone. There's a part where you can move the sound waves on there, but I don't know how to manipulate enough of that yet.

I went to a church camp and a woman told me her husband refuses to get hearing aids. I popped one out and she said, "You're wearing hearing aids?" I told her, "You can't even see them anymore and it's real simple. You can use it with your phone." I explained the process and she said, "I'm so taking him to Sam's right now." I was even telling my hairdresser we gotta work on my hairstyle 'cause I have extremely short hair. But we don't have to hide them. It's like you have a stopped-up ear almost but it's not bothersome.

I use the app on the phone for controlling my hearing aids. The technician had it set up and he told me I would be able to hear my phone ring through my hearing aids. That is good in a way. But if I lay my phone down and the phone rings, it's ringing in my ear but I don't know where it's at across the room. So, if I can have him remove that, I'll go back and have him do that. And if I'm getting a text or if I'm looking at something on my phone and it is doing something, it will deaden my hearing because the phone app or whatever I'm doing is doing what it's doing. I'm still working and it affects my hearing when I'm with the customer.

The main thing that I wanna do with the hearing aids as far as my phone is if I'm in areas where it's noisy and I can tone that down, or if I'm in a meeting or something and want to boost the hearing for the speaker, I wanna be able to control that volume that way. So, I just need to go back and talk to the technician and see if I'm even using the app correctly. So that's on me and not the technician. I just got these back in January and I'm about an hour's drive from the technician but I had not been back to get things checked out and to ask questions.

For someone who's on fixed incomes, they're terribly expensive though and there's no help with insurance. Medicare does not cover the very things that senior citizens need for quality of life, such as dental, hearing and eyesight. What tipped the scales for me to decide to purchase when I did was Sam’s was running a special and I could get two years interest-free. I knew I was gonna need the hearing aids and I wouldn't get any better deal than that. I've been very satisfied with the Lucid hearing aids and I would recommend them.

Lucid Hearing is awesome and I'd recommend them to anybody. If anybody's experiencing hearing problems like I am, they need to go do this. Anybody who can get a set if they need them, their life's gonna be better. I love the hearing aids. The price was fair. It was 1,800 and you could have gone as low as 1,200. And that's for this superior product in my mind. You can barely tell it's there. It's behind the ear. Lucid has products as much as 5,000 but I don't know why anybody’d pay more than 1,800. You hit a plateau where once they're to this quality, it wouldn't matter if you were Bill Gates. You just can't buy a better hearing aid. It's already perfect. I don't expect to be able to hear what they're saying in China. Hearing aids are great but there's no way people will be disappointed if they get a pair of these.

One of the features I really like is the capability to connect to my phone, which makes it convenient as I don't have to hold the phone to my ear. The app used to operate it is simple, although I haven't used it much as the configuration works well from the start.

I would rate my overall experience a 4 out of 5 because I've encountered some connection issues with my phone lately—sometimes needing to switch the hearing aids off and on to reconnect. However, I am generally satisfied and would recommend Lucid Hearing. Their customer service deserves a 5, as they were exceedingly helpful.

I've noticed the price I paid was quite standard after researching similar products. Even though I cannot review their online tools or website as I've only used the app, I'd rate the app a 5 for its performance so far.

I've been using the hearing aids for a while now and find them valuable once you get used to them. It took me about two months to acclimatize, but they've significantly improved the quality of my daily life. They are battery-powered, requiring a change every three days.

One of my favorite features is the Bluetooth connectivity, which allows me to seamlessly listen to music from my phone. They certainly serve a dual purpose, acting like standard earbuds alongside being hearing aids. Initially, I used the Lucid Hearing app quite frequently. It's a good app.

I would rate my overall experience with Lucid Hearing positively, delivering good customer service and product value, despite the price of the hearing aids being on the higher side – they came up to about $4,500 even with a payment plan.

In terms of quality, the hearing aids seem a little cheaply made compared to my previous ones. Those weren't exceptional either, though I may have heard slightly better with them when they were new. Overall, I'm still searching for a brand that meets my needs. I have no experience with the Lucid Hearing app. I'm concerned that hearing aid companies, in general, may be more focused on profit than on significantly improving hearing. I haven’t met many fully happy hearing aid users, regardless of brand. In social settings like dances with music playing, it's particularly challenging to separate conversation from background noise, which I find a significant issue. This limitation makes social interactions frustrating, and although they're perhaps better than nothing, hearing aids still fall short.
