It does work with Samsung Galaxy S24. Samsung Galaxy S24 has Bluetooth LE and Auracast, and it does work answering phone calls via tapping your ear twice to answer calls and end calls.

I see forum posts talking about having to use desk phones at work. Will the Marie microphone allow someone place the phone receiver on their ear normally and hear the phone. If so it seems like a good use case.

Thanks for update. How do your patients like the "hearing in noise" capability? Say compared to other hearing aids? I am in a trial with the Nexia 9. While it has a lot of features I really like, not sure about restaurant like settings. Even with several tweaks by my audiologist, seems to really bring in a lot of restaurant noises I don't want to hear, while not always hearing person in front of me (albeit they have soft voices). Played with the "noise filter" and "speech clarity" as well.

lots of comments on this review and others that say the Bluetooth sound quality and connectivity (I-Phone) is poor to average at best. Streaming is becoming so popular that I would hope for better. I'm going to give these a try (trail) but looks like I may try the Phonak Audeo Infino. I wonder why people get a HA that has Aurcast when it will not be around for years, and the average HA only last a few years. That being the case it may be smarter to just wait it out till Aurcast hits mainstream.

I've just been trialing a hearing aid, and it really irritated my ears. The whole ear felt like it was burning, even after changing for a smaller earpiece, I had to take it out after wearing for 3 hours. the ear piece looked like a flower on a post. Do you know if ear bud like the ones in your video are less irritating? Or is there another type? I generally were Apple buds for several hours, even overnight without too much trouble, but wouldn't be able to tolerate them for 12 hours, I don't think.

Hi there 😊.
I have severe cookie bit hearing loss . Do you think the resound nexia could work for me ?? Thanks

How do they work in noisy bars/restaurants? I've read that they perform better than anything on the market in noisy environments.

Was looking forward to this review, but... don't care about streaming, don't care about the charger, don't care about the size, don't care about the button. I care about sound quality, which was not mentioned, despite you going through sound quality in your Phonak video. Missed a bit, eh? I've heard many reviews of ReSound hearing aids sound being "sharp". Could you elaborate please? Currently been wearing Unitron for 2 years, looking to upgrade.

With full spec including Auracast and hands free calling?

Can you explain the difference between Nexia and Jabra pro 20? Why would I pay $4, 000 more for the Nexia over the Jabra?

I am glad you boys see wht needs to be improved, un like me coming from Eargo 6 i can ot understand how this manufacturer is so behind the curve as technology is concerned ease of bluetooooth hook up and auto noise canceling.
