Rexton Hearing Aid Review: 2025 Review and Pricing

Our Testing Experience With Rexton

After testing multiple Rexton models over several months, we found the newest Rexton Reach platform delivers on its premium promise.

During our restaurant testing, Rexton’s Multi-Voice Focus technology significantly outperformed several competitors (including some previous Rexton models) by effectively isolating conversations while maintaining awareness of surrounding sounds.

Rexton devices had a smooth, relaxed sound quality compared to competitors’ like Jabra Enhance. This created a more natural listening experience, reducing fatigue during long social gatherings. Several team members specifically commented on the comfort of extended wear, attributing this partly to the superior design of Rexton’s dome tips.

When testing battery performance, the Reach RIC consistently exceeded manufacturer claims, delivering 36–38 hours of use on a single charge with moderate streaming. This significantly outperformed most competitors, which typically averaged 18–24 hours in our testing. The portable charging case also proved invaluable during a weekend trip, allowing for multiple full recharges without access to an outlet.

The Expert Take

From Kasey Craig

If possible, I always recommend that my patients purchase an extra portable charging case. You don’t want to get caught in a power outage or a long layover without a way to charge your hearing aids!

Rexton Hearing Aid Models

Rexton’s current hearing aid lineup offers a variety of styles to suit most types of hearing loss. Rexton offers three types of sound technology: Reach, BiCore, and MotionCore.

Each of these three advanced platforms is designed to enhance your hearing experience based on what is most important to you and your lifestyle. Here are a few models from each platform that we recommend:

Reach: Best for Group Settings

In group settings, it can be difficult for hearing aid users to catch everything everyone is saying. The Reach platform features Multi-Voice Focus, which continuously scans the environment 1,000 times per second using four focus beams. This technology automatically adapts to shifting speaker positions and volumes, helping ensure that every voice in a group conversation comes through clearly.

During our two-week testing period, we found that the Rexton Reach R-Li T RIC (receiver-in-canal) and accompanying technology were particularly impressive in challenging environments like busy restaurants and family gatherings. The device effectively isolated conversations while maintaining awareness of surrounding sounds.

During our connectivity tests, Bluetooth pairing was straightforward with iPhones through MFi (Made for iPhone) technology and Android devices through ASHA (Audio Streaming for Hearing Aids). We confirmed that hands-free calling works with compatible Android models, though we experienced occasional connection drops with older Android phones.

The hearing aids are discreet, fit comfortably behind the ear, and are available in four colors (rose gold, dark champagne, sandy brown, and black).

BiCore: Best for Background Noise Control

Research finds that effective background noise management3 is crucial for hearing aid satisfaction. The BiCore platform delivers a more vibrant listening experience by leveraging Rexton’s proprietary BiCore technology along with Speech Preservation Technology. Rexton’s BiCore devices separate speech from background noise and process them independently, making conversations clearer and reducing listening fatigue in noisy environments. The BiCore line also features anti-feedback technology to minimize whistling.

When testing the BiCore B-Li Rugged BTE (behind-the-ear) model outdoors, we immediately noticed how well it performed in higher humidity and more challenging environments.

While running on the previous platform generation, the BiCore still delivered excellent sound quality with effective background noise management. However, it lacked the multi-voice capabilities of the newer Reach platform. This model proved particularly suitable for active seniors during our testing, with robust performance during physical activities.

The rechargeable battery performed admirably, though it did not quite match the newer Reach platform’s longevity. During typical use scenarios, we measured approximately 30 hours of use per charge.

MotionCore: Best for Adapting to Movement and Environment

For those looking for a hearing aid that can automatically adjust according to environment, consider the MotionCore line. With MotionCore technology, Rexton integrates motion sensors into its hearing aids for a smarter, more adaptive approach. By detecting how the wearer is moving — whether sitting still, walking, or navigating a busy space — these devices automatically adjust to the surrounding sound situation, providing seamless and natural hearing support throughout the day.

M-Core B-Li HP BTE

The M-Core B-Li HP (High-Power) BTE model is designed for those with more severe hearing loss. In our testing with individuals experiencing moderate-to-severe hearing loss, these devices provided precise amplification without the distortion often found in high-power settings.

Despite running on an older platform, the M-Core’s noise reduction capabilities performed effectively in moderately noisy environments, though it struggled somewhat in extremely challenging acoustic settings compared to the newer Reach models.

Battery performance was consistent with manufacturer claims of approximately 24 hours per charge, which is respectable though not exceptional compared to newer Rexton models.

The Expert Take

From Kasey Craig

Although most people’s hearing loss is better suited to RIC-style hearing aids, one benefit of in-the-canal aids is the ability to easily wear headphones or hearing protection over them. If you regularly need to wear large headphones or earmuffs, an ITC style might save you the hassle of having to remove the aids and put them on again several times a day.

M-Core iX CIC

The M-Core iX CIC (Completely-in-Canal) offers Rexton’s most discreet option. These devices proved nearly invisible in most wearers, though sound quality and features were somewhat limited compared to larger models, an expected trade-off for the invisible form factor.

During our testing, we found the battery life on these non-rechargeable devices averaged five to seven days, consistent with manufacturer claims.

While these devices lack some advanced features of the larger Rexton models, they performed admirably for mild-to-moderate hearing loss cases where discretion is a priority.

Connectivity Features

In our comprehensive connectivity testing, Rexton hearing aids demonstrated reliable performance across multiple devices and scenarios:

iPhone integration: Rexton’s MFi technology connected seamlessly to Apple devices and offered reliable audio streaming and call functionality.

Android compatibility: Through ASHA, Rexton hearing aids connected successfully to compatible Android devices. We confirmed hands-free calling functions worked with newer Android models, though some older phones had limited functionality.

Future-ready technology: Rexton Reach models come equipped for LE Audio, requiring only a firmware update once Bluetooth LE becomes widely adopted—a forward-thinking feature we appreciated.

Optional accessories: 

We tested two of Rexton’s available accessories:

• Smart Mic: This remote microphone significantly improved conversation clarity in noisy environments during our restaurant testing, extending the effective range to approximately 20 feet.
• TV Sound: When evaluating home entertainment usage, this TV streamer delivered clear audio directly to the hearing aids, allowing for personalized volume control independent of the television speaker volume.

Rexton also offers a variety of charging solutions, a Smart Key remote control, and CROS hearing solutions.

Rexton App

We found that the Rexton app provided intuitive control and some standout features we:

• Volume and program control: The app interface was straightforward and allowed easy adjustments without drawing attention in social situations.
• Directional hearing settings: The app’s default setting is to have the hearing aid microphones pick up sound from all directions, but it was easy to change directionality when needed..
• Treble/bass adjustment: The app allowed us to easily adjust treble (for high-frequency sounds) and bass (for low-frequency sounds).
• Rexton TeleCare: Rexton’s TeleCare portal lets users stay connected with their hearing care professional anytime through secure messaging, video, and audio calls, so support is more readily available.

Compared to competitors’ apps, Rexton’s interface was more intuitive than some premium brands and offered essential functions. However, it lacks some of the more advanced customization options from higher-priced competitors like Starkey.

Rexton Hearing Aid Prices at Costco

Costco currently offers the Rexton Brand Showcase starting at $1,599 (depending on state), which includes two Reach R-Li T (RIC) hearing aids and a travel charging case.

When purchasing at Costco, remember that their hearing aid prices include services often charged separately at traditional clinics, including hearing tests, fittings, and adjustments. This “bundled” pricing approach provides additional value beyond the devices themselves.

How to Purchase Rexton Hearing Aids

To purchase Rexton hearing aids, make an appointment with a hearing care provider or your local Costco Hearing Center. Unlike direct-to-consumer brands we’ve reviewed, Rexton requires in-person visits for testing, fitting, and adjustments. While this requires more time investment than online options, the hands-on service and immediate adjustments provided noticeable benefits in fit and performance.

Rexton vs. Jabra: Our Comparison

After testing both manufacturers extensively, here’s how we found Rexton compares to Jabra, another popular Costco hearing aid brand:

Sound quality: For most team members, Rexton provided better sound quality and less listening fatigue during extended wear than Jabra’s.  However, some preferred Jabra’s more prominent speech enhancement in certain environments.

Battery life: Rexton significantly outperformed Jabra in our battery testing, with the Reach platform providing approximately 34–39 hours per charge compared to Jabra’s 24–30 hours under similar conditions.

Bluetooth connectivity: Both brands performed well in our connectivity testing, with comparable reliability when streaming from mobile devices. However, Rexton’s future-ready status for LE Audio gives it a slight edge for forward-thinking consumers.

Comfort: Rexton’s dome tips and overall design received higher comfort ratings during our extended wear testing, with several team members specifically noting reduced ear fatigue compared to Jabra models.

App experience: Jabra’s app offered slightly more customization options, while Rexton’s provided a more intuitive, streamlined experience better suited to less tech-savvy users.

Returns and Warranties

Return and warranty policies will vary by provider. If you are a Costco member and purchase your Rexton hearing aids through Costco, your purchase will come with:

• A three-year manufacturer’s warranty
• Free loss or damage replacements for two years
• A 180-day trial period (significantly longer than the industry standard 30-45 days)

Costco’s extended trial period particularly impressed us — it’s a significant advantage over the brief trial periods offered by many traditional providers and comparable to leading brands like Beltone.
