$1,695 – $1,995 / pair
List $1,995 per pair; on sale for $1,695 per pair direct from jabraenhance.com as of July 2026. Price includes 3 years of remote audiology care, 3-year warranty with loss/damage protection, and a 100-day trial.
The Enhance Select 700 is Jabra's flagship over-the-counter hearing aid: a tiny rechargeable receiver-in-canal model for mild to moderate hearing loss, priced at $1,695–$1,995 per pair — premium territory for OTC. That price bundles three years of remote audiology care, a three-year warranty with loss and damage protection, and a 100-day trial, which is the most complete support package you'll find without a clinic visit.

Jabra saved its best OTC ideas for this one. Launched in 2025 to replace the Enhance Select 500 at the top of the lineup, the Select 700 is marketed as the world's smallest rechargeable receiver-in-ear hearing aid, and reviewers say its sound rivals premium prescription devices. The real headline, though, is the support: three years of remote audiologist care, a three-year warranty with loss and damage protection, and a 100-day trial are all included in the $1,695–$1,995 price. Add LE Audio with Auracast, hands-free calling on both iPhone and Android, and an IP68 rating, and it's the most complete OTC package on the market.
Everything here runs on a sealed rechargeable battery — 24-plus hours per charge, but no disposable-battery fallback if you're caught out with dead aids, and no telecoil for looped churches and theaters either. The charging case that carries your three spare charges runs bulkier than some competitors', too. Then there's the cost: at up to $1,995 per pair it's pricier than almost any other OTC option, and its speech-in-noise lab performance — a HearAdvisor SoundGrade B — is above average but underwhelming for the money. It's also a self-fit device for mild to moderate loss only; if your hearing loss goes beyond that, your hearing care professional can point you toward prescription options instead.
Who's it for? People who want the full package — top-tier hardware plus real human follow-up — without clinic visits. If you mainly want good sound and can skip the newest connectivity, the Enhance Select 300 at $1,695 list is the smarter value in the same lineup. But against prescription models like the Phonak Audéo Infinio, which starts at $2,498, the Select 700's bundle of care, warranty, and trial time holds up surprisingly well.

It depends on how much you value the bundle. The $1,995 list price (on sale for $1,695 direct from Jabra as of July 2026) includes three years of remote audiology care, a three-year warranty with loss and damage protection, and a 100-day trial — support that prescription clinics charge far more for. The caveat: its speech-in-noise lab score (HearAdvisor SoundGrade B) is above average but modest for a device at this price.
Both are OTC receiver-in-canal hearing aids in Jabra's Enhance Select line. The Select 700 is the 2025 flagship, with SoundScape Auto Focus processing, Bluetooth LE Audio with Auracast, TapControl, IP68 durability, and Jabra's claim of the world's smallest rechargeable RIC. It lists at $1,995 per pair versus $1,695 for the Select 300 — though sale pricing has brought the 700 down to $1,695 as well, which narrows the decision considerably.
Yes. The Select 700 supports Bluetooth LE Audio with Auracast broadcast audio, which is rare among OTC hearing aids and lets it tune into Auracast streams in equipped venues. It also works with both iPhone (MFi) and Android (ASHA), handles hands-free calling on both platforms, and lets you answer calls with a double tap using TapControl.
A full charge runs 24+ hours, and the portable charging case stores three additional full charges for travel. The aids are rechargeable only — there's no disposable-battery version — so plan around nightly charging. One minor gripe from reviewers: the charging case is bulkier than some competitors'. The IP68 rating means the aids themselves are well protected against dust and water.
