Eargo, Inc. launched Eargo 6, its sixth-generation FDA Class II exempt hearing aid and most powerful device yet, at CES 2022. Eargo 6's new Sound Adjust technology is an example of better hearing, made effortless. Its proprietary algorithm identifies the user's surroundings and instantly modifies the hearing device's settings to ensure optimal benefit, without requiring manual input from the wearer.

Eargo 6 also introduces a new environmental offset called “mask mode” to offset the communication challenges faced by individuals with hearing loss while conversing with someone wearing a face mask; a user can select “mask mode” through the app. Eargo 6's new core features include: Hearing Made Effortless: Eargo 6's Sound Adjust feature identifies the environment users are in and automatically modifies the device settings to provide optimal benefit. No need for users to pull out their app or tap their ear to make a manual change, as Eargo 6 adjusts automatically.

Improved Performance in Noise: Eargo's fast-acting noise reduction reduces loud background noise and noise between pauses in speech, while leaving the speech energy unaffected, enabling improved hearing in noisy environments such as restaurants. Water-resistance: Eargo 6 has been tested to a water-resistance rating of IPX7, or water resistance of up to 30 minutes at a water depth of up to one meter. Since launching its first device in 2015, Eargo has remained committed to redefining the hearing device industry through product and service innovation.

Its discreet, in-canal design renders it virtually invisible, while also offering enhanced sound quality. Eargo's easy-to-navigate mobile application allows users to personalize their device to their unique hearing preferences from the comfort of their home, which is bolstered by trusted lifetime virtual support from hearing guides and licensed hearing professionals. Eargo has approximately 40 licensed hearing professionals on staff, available for telehealth appointments at no additional charge.

Eargo uses a fully customized and rechargeable battery, developed by VARTA, which offers the high energy density in the smallest space. The device is fully charged within four hours for up to 16 hours of continuous power. Eargo 6 is available for purchase at a fraction of the price of traditional hearing aids: $2,950, with financing available for as low as $94/month for 36 months, and with interest-free financing options available.
