The ReSound Nexia Product Line
Expert review by Crystal Hearing Solutions Clinical Team.
For patients with active lifestyles, the two biggest requests we hear in the clinic are: “Make it as small as possible,” and “Help me hear better in noisy restaurants.” Usually, packing maximum background-noise reduction into a tiny device means compromising on battery life or Bluetooth connectivity.
ReSound has engineered a brilliant solution to this exact problem. Today, our audiologists are reviewing the ReSound Nexia product line, an absolute powerhouse that holds the title of ReSound’s smallest rechargeable Receiver-in-Ear (microRIE) ever created. Despite its microscopic size, it boasts the industry’s best hearing in noise and cutting-edge Auracast broadcast technology.
What Makes the ReSound Nexia Stand Out?
Before we break down the different technology tiers, here is the core technology that makes the Nexia a premium, future-proof choice:
1. Industry’s Best Hearing in Noise
The Nexia utilizes an incredibly fast processing chip that maps the acoustic environment in 360 degrees. It precisely separates speech from surrounding noise, allowing you to engage in group conversations effortlessly without feeling exhausted.
2. The Smallest Rechargeable microRIE
ReSound has completely redesigned the internal components to make the Nexia their smallest, most discreet rechargeable hearing aid to date, sitting perfectly flush behind the ear.
3. Bluetooth LE Audio & Auracast™
The Nexia is fully equipped for the future of public audio. Using the ReSound Smart 3D app, you can seamlessly tune into public Auracast streams (like airport announcements, gym TVs, or theater audio) directly through your hearing aids.
4. TapControl
Answer phone calls with a simple double-tap on your ear, no need to take your phone out of your pocket.
5. CROS/BiCROS Options
For patients with single-sided deafness (total hearing loss in one ear), the Nexia platform offers dedicated CROS transmitters to wirelessly route sound from the “bad” ear over to the “good” ear.
Choosing the Right Technology Level: The Nexia Lineup
The ReSound Nexia is available in three different technology tiers. We help our patients choose the right level based on how complex their acoustic environments are on a daily basis:
1. ReSound Nexia 9 (Premium Tier)
The ultimate solution for highly active lifestyles and the most demanding listening environments.
- Lifestyle Fit: Highly Active (Ideal for frequent travel, bustling restaurants, complex corporate meetings, and dynamic group conversations).
- Clinical Features: The Nexia 9 unlocks exclusive features like “Front Focus” and “Ultra Focus,” alongside true 360 All-Around directionality. It provides the absolute highest level of noise reduction and maximum environmental awareness, making it the top choice for patients who refuse to compromise in loud spaces.
2. ReSound Nexia 7 (Advanced Tier)
A fantastic balance of advanced automation and strong clarity for those who are frequently on the go.
- Lifestyle Fit: Active (Great for the office, regular social events, dining out, and busy family functions).
- Clinical Features: The Nexia 7 utilizes 360 All-Around directionality to provide excellent environmental awareness and strong speech clarity. It offers a highly sophisticated listening experience with robust noise reduction, stepping just below the ultra-aggressive focus of the premium level 9.
3. ReSound Nexia 5 (Standard Tier)
The everyday essential for patients looking for reliable conversation enhancement during standard activities.
- Lifestyle Fit: Moderate (Perfect for daily routines, quiet restaurants, staying at home, and small gatherings).
- Clinical Features: The Nexia 5 provides dependable, comfortable listening for less complex situations. It utilizes basic directionality and moderate noise reduction, offering all the benefits of the microRIE design and Auracast at a more accessible price point.
Who is this hearing aid lineup best for?
The ReSound Nexia is a masterclass in miniaturization and power. It is the ideal choice if you or your loved one:
- Have mild to profound hearing loss.
- Struggle significantly with background noise and want top-tier processing to help filter it out.
- Are excited about the future of wireless audio and want a device equipped with Auracast and Bluetooth LE Audio.
