ReSound hearing aids compared
ReSound (part of GN) runs from the value-focused Key range up to the premium Nexia and Vivia lines. The Key 188 and 488 are high-power behind-the-ear aids for stronger loss; the Key 362 is the best-value streaming pick. Higher up, the Nexia 761 adds Bluetooth LE Audio with Auracast for public venues, and the Vivia 9 is the most advanced speech-in-noise aid on this list. Here is the range side by side — the right one depends on your hearing test, not the headline price.

*MRP is the manufacturer's reference price. At Prudent you pay up to 30–50% below MRP, hearing aids are GST-exempt in India, and 0% EMI is available — your exact price is confirmed after a free hearing test. A hearing aid manages hearing loss, it does not cure it, so the model is chosen from your audiogram, not from this table alone.
