Signia offers a range of hearing aid styles and designs for mild to severe hearing loss. These devices have high-tech features and come in a variety of style options, including ITC, RIC, CIC, BTE, ITE, and IIC models. Signia hearing aid users need to be comfortable with smartphone apps and Bluetooth technology to get the most out of the available features.

Our reviews team dove into the pros and cons of Signia hearing aids, the types of models and pricing, and verified customer reviews to help you find the best hearing aids to fit your needs.

From traditional hearing aids sold through an audiologist’s office to direct-to-consumer brands, our reviews team researched dozens of hearing aid brands to see what each company offered. Signia products stand out in the hearing aid industry because of the sleek designs, advanced hearing technology for different levels of hearing loss, and wide selection of models and colors. In our survey of 600 hearing aid users, more than 51 percent of Signia customers reported that their Signia hearing aids helped them better hear conversations in groups of five people or fewer. In that same survey, more than 60 percent of customers said they either never needed repairs or only needed repairs once during the warranty period.

Our experts have spent more than 2,500 hours conducting thorough research on hearing aids. Throughout this process, we did the following:

Available in three colors, Signia Active hearing aids look like high-end earbuds and feature Bluetooth connectivity. This model uses Signia Xperience sound technology and includes automatic situation detection to adapt to different sound environments. You can also use the Signia app to adjust the hearing settings. The Signia Active is the base version of this hearing aid, while the Signia Active Pro includes advanced features to help manage ambient noise. The Active hearing aids might be a good choice for someone reluctant to wear traditional-looking hearing aids and those who want hearing aids that can keep up with an active lifestyle, thanks to the automatic situation detection and on-the-go charging. They come with wireless rechargeable batteries that last for 26 hours after a four-hour charge, plus a portable charging case that can fit in your pocket.

The Styletto, specifically the Styletto Connect, won a Red Dot Design Award in 2019 for a design that "skillfully stands out from other hearing aids and thus encourages wearer acceptance to a higher degree," according to the award jury. The Styletto hearing aid is suitable for mild to severe hearing loss, while the Styletto Connect is meant for mild to moderate hearing loss. All Signia Styletto models include Bluetooth connectivity and come in five color combination options. The rechargeable batteries can last for up to 19 hours, without streaming, after a four-hour charge. With the portable charging case, you can potentially get up to three days of use from your Styletto hearing aids.

Signia Silk hearing aids are some of the smallest and most discreet models the company offers. One unique feature of these devices is the detachable soft silicone sleeves, which come in four sizes so you can adjust the fit to your comfort. The Signia Silk hearing aids don’t have Bluetooth technology for music and TV audio streaming, but you can still stream phone calls and make adjustments on the Signia app to personalize your hearing experience.

The Signia Pure hearing aids are small, versatile RIC hearing aids in 10 colors that provide more customization options for users. This model comes with the Mask Mode feature for people who struggle to hear those wearing face masks. The rechargeable batteries can last up to 36 hours on a single charge, even with five hours of Bluetooth streaming. There is also a telecoil version available that can connect to audio loop systems directly.

Signia Motion hearing aids are BTE devices that use Automatic Situation Detection to help provide you with the best listening experience for your surroundings. This model has Bluetooth connectivity for phone calls, music, and TV streaming. Depending on the model, the wireless rechargeable batteries can last up to 61 hours on a single charge. The Signia Motion hearing aids also offer a 30-minute fast charge that can add four to seven hours of regular listening.

The Insio line of Signia hearing aids offers several models that sit directly in your ear and are fitted to the shape of your ear canal. They are available for multiple levels of hearing loss, including mild, moderate, and severe, and feature Bluetooth technology that allows you to use the Signia app to personalize your hearing experience. If you don’t have access to a smartphone, you can use the miniPocket accessory, a discreet remote control, to adjust your hearing settings.

The Signia CROS X line of hearing aids includes versions of other hearing aid models that have been adapted for single-sided hearing loss. Our reviews team rated the Signia CROS as the best hearing aid for single-sided hearing loss and noted that they allow you to pick up sounds from the nonhearing ear through your hearing ear. These models offer Bluetooth connectivity and a miniPocket remote control accessory to adjust your hearing aid settings remotely without a smartphone. With multiple style options, users can select the design of the single-sided hearing aid best suited for them.

Signia hearing aid prices can range from $2,000 to $6,500 per pair, though the costs will vary depending on your model and provider. You can purchase Signia hearing aids through a local hearing center, which you can find through the store locator on the Signia website. The hearing aids are also available through ZipHearing, an online discounted hearing aid provider. Some audiologists and hearing centers offer bundles that include hearing tests, examinations, hearing aid devices, and follow-up care. You can also choose to pay as you go for services as needed, although this may be more expensive.

While most insurance plans don’t cover the cost of hearing aids, other options might cover the costs depending on your plan and provider. Here are a few of the top options to explore for hearing aid coverage.

Signia offers an international repair service that is available in 26 countries while the product is under warranty. This warranty varies from one to three years depending on the model. After the warranty expires, Signia charges for repairs. The Signia website also has how-to videos to help find answers to common questions about Signia hearing aids, apps, and accessories. The Signia TeleCare app allows you to connect virtually and troubleshoot with a hearing care professional.

According to Trisha Muth, AuD, a doctor of audiology with Bay Area Audiology in Bay Area, Maryland, these virtual follow-up appointments are important to keep your hearing aids working correctly. In addition to in-person checkups, Dr. Muth explains, “Virtual appointments are routinely used when an adjustment for sound quality is needed, e.g., hearing aids are too soft or too loud, tinny, hollow, etc., which reduces the amount of travel time, wait time, and in-person visits.”

Signia does not currently have a profile page on the BBB, and it has only one review on Trustpilot. While this review gives the company an average star rating of 3.3 out of 5, the results are too small to draw any conclusions.

“The hearing aids [Signia Pure Charge&Go X 3] I bought have been perfect for me. They are very comfortable and the sound is wonderful and I can hear many things I couldn’t hear before.”

— LINDA, VERIFIED CUSTOMER (REVIEW FROM ZIPHEARING.COM)

“[The Signia Pure Charge&Go X 7] are far better than my 10-year old set in every way. They are smaller than I expected, the sound is excellent, and they can be programmed for different hearing situations. Being able to adjust them using my iPhone is a plus.”

— CHARLES, VERIFIED CUSTOMER (REVIEW FROM ZIPHEARING.COM)

“Better sound quality than my old hearing aid. The main problem I’ve had with them is that the domes keep falling out — the audiologist is now trying a different size. The design on my previous model, with a double dome, worked better.”

— LILY, VERIFIED CUSTOMER (REVIEW FROM ZIPHEARING.COM)

Our team reviewed the latest research on hearing loss and hearing aid technology, interviewed experts in the field, combed through customer reviews on third-party websites, and surveyed more than 600 hearing aid users to determine the top brands. After narrowing down our selections, we consulted with an audiologist who medically reviewed each brand and model. We determined our top picks based on the following criteria:

Signia makes hearing aids for varying levels of hearing loss and offers impressive smartphone capabilities and Bluetooth connectivity on many of its devices. More than 25 percent of respondents to our survey said that Bluetooth and smartphone capabilities were their top-ranked hearing aid features. Signia is a great choice for those who want a range of options, innovative technology, and discreet hearing aids.

According to our survey respondents, the biggest drawback to Signia hearing aids was the cost. Signia might not be the best choice for those who are budget conscious or want the ease and convenience of buying a hearing aid online because you can only purchase them through an audiologist or hearing center. Signia hearing aids are best for tech-savvy users who are comfortable with smartphone apps and those looking for more stylish or less noticeable hearing aids.

Choosing a hearing aid is a personal decision for which you need to weigh the pros and cons to decide what fits your needs. If you’re looking for a hearing aid with a design focused on style and technology, Signia might be right for you. If you’re more budget conscious, Signia hearing aids can be expensive, so they might not suit you.

Signia hearing aids generally cost between $2,000 and $6,500 per pair depending on the provider and model. You can purchase Signia hearing aids through a local hearing center or an online discounted hearing aid provider, such as ZipHearing.
