Sourced tester consensus for each — the "what people who used it think" layer, not just specs.
Only one whitelisted tester, Reviewed (USA Today), published a hands-on review of the exact Select 700; it calls them among the simplest OTC aids tested, praising fast charging, all-device Bluetooth streaming, and comfort, while flagging the $1,995 price as the main drawback. Note: the article is an update to Reviewed's earlier Select 500 review, so the 700-specific hands-on testing is limited. (1 sourced review.)
Praised: Simple to set up and use yet still customizable per ear; Great battery life with fast charging (case holds extra charges); Bluetooth streaming works across both Android and iOS.
Flagged: High $1,995 price versus cheaper OTC competitors like the Sony CRE-E10; Requires a paired smartphone; not recommended without a smart device.
Only one whitelisted tester (Reviewed/USA Today) has a hands-on review of this exact model; PCMag, TechRadar and Good Housekeeping carry none. Reviewed calls it a top-quality, affordable OTC aid: comfortable enough for all-day wear, with prescription-comparable sound and app bass/treble control, but flags occasional feedback above volume 95 and a travel-risky charging case. (1 sourced review, 1 lab-tested.)
Praised: Comfortable for all-day wear when fitted with the correct dome; Sound quality comparable to prescription aids; app bass/treble and environment settings tame harsh background noise; Charging case adds a full extra charge and self-fitting app setup is easy.
Flagged: Occasional feedback squeaks at high world-volume settings (above 95); Charging case feels risky to carry for travel; no simple hard case included.
