Rexton (Costco)

Description

Costco offers three prescription hearing brands – Jabra, Philips and Rexton.
In this review we’ll go in-depth with Rexton hearing aids and talk through their latest Rexton Reach platform.
The new release includes exciting updates to their sound-processing and underlying technology that will unlock future Bluetooth experiences.
Background and Recent Updates
WS Audiology manufactures Rexton hearing aids, which also makes sister brand Signia. Rexton hearing aids are available at Costco in a variety of form-factors:
The most popular Reach RIC R-Li T (reach platform)
Higher powered, and durable BiCore Rugged BTE (Bicore platform)
High-powered M-Core HP BTE (MCore Platform)
An Invisible-Style M-Core IX CIC (MCore Platform)
This diverse product offering means that there is an option for customers with a wide range of hearing loss and preferences.
At this time Rexton’s newest chipset (Rexton Reach) is only available in their flagship receiver-in-canal (RIC) product. The good news for Costco shoppers is that the RIC product is the most popular and feature rich among Rexton options making it an easy selection for most folks.
Rexton’s new devices are among our favorites at Costco which offer some of the best technology available at an impressive price. The new Rexton Reach offers improved multi-talker technology, an upgrade to Bluetooth connectivity and the longest battery life among Costco’s range.
Of note, If you have a complex hearing situation like asymmetrical hearing loss, past surgeries, or severe hearing loss, you’ll likely have more success with a more specialized local clinic.
Rexton Vs. Costco Alternatives
We like Rexton hearing aids for their long-lasting battery (34+ hours on a single charge) and full range of designs. We also love the modern travel charging-case that comes with Rexton Reach devices.
Rexton’s underlying noise-management technology has several strengths: a processing chip that separates speech and background sounds as well as multiple beam-forming capability to follow multiple talkers in noise with the new Rexton Reach. In our review of Rexton Reach we noted a smooth, relaxed sound quality compared to Jabra’s more assertive and bright style.
