If nothing else, this is a reminder that CES is a week away.

JLab will be introducing several new products at CES 2023, including its smallest set of wireless earbuds, and OTC hearing aids that it plans to sell for $99.

Yeah it’s gonna be worth the wait, Jlab offering OTC is pretty cool, things like this are going to keep the big boys on their toes!
I noticed only one is offered as
“self fitting” without a price, that $99 model may not be an “OTC” in the true sense of the word.

Yeah. I’m not sure if you can call a non-adjustable device a “hearing aid”. There’s a bud mentioned in the same article that seems to do LE Audio via a dongle… somehow. Not sure what the dongle’s for.

Edit: I guess the buds are LE Audio and the dongle’s a LE Audio transmitter you plug into your computer or console. I like that it fits in the case.
