What makes it special
Many things worth knowing about this hearing aid
Specs only tell you so much. Here's what's actually worth knowing about the ReSound Sensia 5 microRIE — what each feature does, and why it matters day to day.
360 Chip + DNN Chip (dual-chip) Chipset
Vivia uses a DualChip, Triple Processor architecture combining the power of the 360 Chip with a new Deep Neural Network Chip.
Bluetooth LE Audio
Auracast
Connectivity
Connect straight to your phone, TV, and other devices — calls, music, and shows stream right into your ears. No extra remotes or accessories to carry around.
Auracast Ready
Stream airport announcements, gym TVs, theater audio directly to your ears. The future is here.
24 hrs Battery Life
Two full days per charge. Weekend trips without the charger? Finally possible.
1m Water Resistant
Rain, sweat, splashes. Golf in the rain? Go for it.
Intermediate Technology level
Higher tiers do more of the work for you — automatically taming background noise and adjusting to busy rooms so speech stays clear. Lower tiers cover the basics and lean more on manual adjustments.
Rechargeable Battery Type
Rechargeable, just like your phone. Set them in the case overnight and wake up to a full day of power — no tiny batteries to swap, fumble with, or keep buying.
HSA / FSA Eligible
Hearing aids count as a qualified medical expense, so you can pay with pre-tax HSA or FSA dollars. Use your HSA/FSA card right at checkout, or file the receipt with your plan for reimbursement.
Recharging Case
The case carries its own battery, so it tops off your hearing aids two to three times before it ever needs an outlet. Just drop them in, close the lid, and charging starts on its own.
