GBCenter for Excellence is Excellent! My 90 year old mother got the celebrity treatment from Mr. Austin and the fantastic team in the Center for Excellence. Her new Genesis AI 24 RIC R devices are a great improvement over her old hearing aids and she loves them. Thank you, CFE, for being so helpful and kind.

GBI got the livio 2400 hearing aids last… I got the livio 2400 hearing aids last october 2020. Have needed speaker replacement 4 times and the right one appears to be slowly dying again. After I get through the 3 year period I plan on getting a cheaper set as the new technology is becoming more prevelent in the market. The days of starkey and other price gouging companies are over - Thankfully! It's incredible how much I was charged for these pieces of garbage.

GBPlastic earmolds are like rocks in your ears First time hearing aid user (3 months). Hearing loss is mild to moderate in high ranges. Luckily I can get by with using the domes (earbuds) only because the hard plastic earmolds are like putting rocks in your ears. I will never wear them! Hearing aid specialist even ground them down some, but they are too uncomfortable to wear. Need a better material than hard plastic.

GBBluetooth connectivity is spotty even… Bluetooth connectivity is spotty even with the new Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. No notification of messages or phone calls are announced in the hearing aids. Placing the phone in a pants pocket effectively disconnects the Bluetooth. Still can't connect them via Bluetooth to other devices, such as the 2022 Sony TV we just bought.

CABluetooth not very user friendly Considering that hearing aids are for older people, the work that went into Bluetooth connectivity is pitiful. I’ve been getting a phone call everyday from my 87 year old friend because she loses connectivity. The issue isn’t with her but rather her devices. She has EarPods which work well, but these hearing aids don’t have the same Bluetooth ease of use. I would not recommend these to anyone. They work well but keep disconnecting and pairing them, at times, is quite the feat.
