Oticon Reveal vs Phonak EON Sphere: which one is better in noise?

Which is better in noise: the Oticon Reveal or the Phonak EON Sphere? The answer depends on more than the technology. We put both in real ears and measured them. On an open fitting, one reached the full prescription. The other fell short above 2000 Hz. Watch this before you choose. Bridgitte Harley, Director and Lead Clinical Audiologist at The Hearing Clinic, skips the spec sheets and tests the four things you will notice every single day: Your own voice: natural, or head in a barrel? Whistling: and the hidden cost of stopping it Clarity: does the amplification actually reach your prescription? Natural sound: does the room still sound like a room? Not covered here: price, battery life and phone compatibility. This video is about how they sound and feel in real life.
