Would you buy a house or car without seeing or testing them first? Probably not.

So, why buy hearing aids without trying them out? At Amplifon, we offer a free 14-day hearing aid trial* for you to test different hearing devices and find the right one for you.

Good reasons to try a hearing aid

Test the comfort

Different hearing aids offer varying comfort levels, and there may be an adjustment phase. It's crucial to find a hearing aid that feels comfortable for long-term wear, allowing you to forget you're even wearing it. To ensure it meets your comfort preferences, trying it before purchasing is essential.

Sound comfort and sound levels

Comfort with a hearing aid goes beyond its physical fit; it also relates to how comfortable the sound is for you. While manufacturers strive for a natural sound, different hearing aids produce different sounds. To find the right one, you may need to try several options to determine which one suits you best.

Discover the features and differences

Every hearing aid model comes with its own set of advantages. For instance, some offer built-in Bluetooth and wireless connectivity for Apple and Android devices, eliminating the need for extra accessories. Others prioritise both convenience and high performance by providing nearly invisible yet highly effective devices. During Amplifon's hearing aid free trial*, our expert hearing care professionals are available to help you choose the perfect hearing aid tailored to your individual needs and preferences.

A hearing aid for every lifestyle

Your lifestyle is a key factor in selecting the right hearing aid. Today's hearing aids are designed to match your lifestyle. With the convenience of charging cases, users have greater flexibility as they can charge their devices whenever and wherever. The free trial period* allows you to explore these features in order to determine how the hearing aids can fit into your daily life.

Solutions for every type of hearing loss

Every hearing aid solution is characterised by its technology level, which is determined by the software within its processing chip. The devices with the more advanced technology offer the most advanced sound processing features. As a result, individuals with more significant hearing impairments often opt for the most advanced technology to better address their specific needs.

Hearing aids for tinnitus

Modern hearing aids can treat different types and degrees of hearing loss and can also ease tinnitus discomfort. Many hearing aid makers offer special accessories and options, like specific programs and free therapy apps, for those with tinnitus.

How do I start the free trial*?

Having a comprehensive hearing test is crucial to thoroughly evaluate your hearing health and determine if you have any degree of hearing loss.

Receive the diagnosis

The Amplifon hearing test results are essential to determine the most suitable hearing aid for each person's specific hearing condition. However, if the issue is temporary, due to blocked ears, a hearing aid may not be needed. Conversely, if the diagnosis indicates mild to severe hearing loss, there a wide variety of hearing aids to choose from.

Choosing the right hearing aid

After receiving a diagnosis, the next step is to reach out to an Amplifon hearing care professional to identify the right hearing aid for your unique hearing loss. Clearly conveying your expectations and lifestyle to your hearing professionals is a vital step in improving your hearing health.
