Resound Savi 2 Hearing Aids Product Highlights

Resound Savi 2 Hearing Aids Overview

The Resound Savi 2 is the entry point into Resound's new Savi range, and it's a more capable hearing aid than its price tag might suggest. As part of the range that supersedes the Resound Key, the Savi 2 carries forward Resound's well-established sound processing technology in a contemporary design, while adding something that genuinely sets it apart from comparable hearing aids at this level: Bluetooth LE Audio and Auracast broadcast audio.

For many people, the Savi 2 will provide everything they need. It handles everyday listening environments well, connects seamlessly to phones and public broadcasts, and comes in the same range of styles and colours as the rest of the Savi family. If you're looking for a reliable, modern hearing aid without paying for features you're unlikely to use, the Savi 2 is worth a close look.

If you're unsure whether the Savi 2 or Savi 3 is the better fit for your needs, our audiologists are happy to talk it through with you before you commit to anything.

What the Savi 2 offers

Clear, natural sound quality. The Savi 2 uses 10 processing channels to amplify sound across the frequency range in a way that's tailored to your specific hearing loss. It won't have the pinpoint accuracy of a 12-channel model, but for many hearing profiles – particularly those with a fairly straightforward loss pattern – 10 channels is more than sufficient.

Automatic noise management. The Savi 2 includes NoiseTracker II, which automatically detects and reduces background noise in challenging environments, whether that's a busy cafe, a family gathering, or a noisy office. You shouldn't need to fiddle with settings every time you walk into a different room.

Feedback suppression. DFS Ultra III works quietly in the background to prevent the whistling or squealing that can otherwise occur when the hearing aid microphone picks up amplified sound. It's one of those features you only really notice when it's not there.

Wind noise reduction. Wind Guard reduces the distraction of wind noise, which is particularly useful if you spend time outdoors.

Built to last. Full IP68 rating and nano-coating protection mean the Savi 2 can handle moisture, sweat, dust, and the general wear and tear of daily life.

Connectivity

Despite sitting at the entry level of the Savi range, the Savi 2 includes the same connectivity features as the Savi 3 – and they're genuinely impressive for a hearing aid at this price point.

The Savi 2 supports both Bluetooth LE Audio and Auracast broadcast audio, making it the first essential-range hearing aid to do so. You can stream audio and take hands-free calls directly through the Resound Smart 3D app, and the integrated Auracast Assistant means you can connect to public broadcasts – in theatres, cinemas, airports, lecture halls, and anywhere else with compatible Auracast transmitters – with a single tap.

This works even if your phone doesn't have Auracast built in yet. It's connectivity that would have felt out of place in an entry-level hearing aid just a couple of years ago.

Available models

The Savi 2 is available in all five Savi styles, covering a wide range of hearing losses and personal preferences:

• miniRIE (Rechargeable): A slim, modern Receiver-in-Canal design with no batteries to manage. A full day's use per charge, plus a quick-charge feature delivering 2.7 hours of use from just 10 minutes of charging. Includes full Bluetooth LE and Auracast connectivity.
• RIE 61 (Size 312 Battery): A compact Receiver-in-Canal option for those who prefer traditional batteries, with all the same connectivity features as the rechargeable model.
• RIE 62 (Size 13 Battery): The largest battery-powered RIC option, running on size 13 batteries and including a built-in telecoil – particularly useful if you regularly visit venues with hearing loop systems such as theatres, churches, or public buildings.
• ITC – In-the-Canal (Wireless): A discreet, custom-fitted option that sits in the ear canal. The first essential-range wireless ITC with Auracast support, so you're not sacrificing connectivity for a more discreet look.
• CIC – Completely-in-Canal: The most discreet style in the range, this CIC sits entirely within the ear canal and is virtually invisible. Your audiologist will be able to confirm whether this style is suitable for your degree of hearing loss and ear anatomy.

Savi 2 vs Savi 3 – is it worth upgrading?

The Savi 2 and Savi 3 share the same connectivity, the same physical styles, and the same core sound processing platform. The Savi 3 adds four features on top:

• 12 processing channels (vs 10 in the Savi 2)
• Autoscope Adaptive Directionality
• Adjustable Directional Mix
• Impulse Noise Protection
• Music Mode

For someone with a straightforward hearing loss who primarily needs clarity in one-to-one conversations and wants the connectivity features without a higher price tag, the Savi 2 is a perfectly sound choice. If you spend a lot of time in more complex or varied listening environments – busy social settings, outdoor spaces, or situations where you frequently need to follow voices from different directions – the Savi 3's additional processing is likely to be noticeable.

Music listeners will also benefit from the Savi 3's dedicated Music Mode. It's genuinely worth discussing with your audiologist rather than just defaulting to either option. They'll be able to match the technology level to your actual lifestyle.

Colour options

The Savi 2 is available in the same contemporary colour palette as the Savi 3, with a subtle shimmer finish:

miniRIE: Sparkling silver, sand, bronze, espresso, and deep black.
RIE models: Beige, medium blonde, dark brown, sterling grey, and black.
ITC and CIC: Anthracite, light beige, beige, medium brown, brown, and dark brown, plus blue, red, and clear shells.

Compatible accessories

• Multi Mic: Extends your hearing range by up to 25 metres. Works as a table microphone for group conversations, connects to loop and FM systems, and includes a mini-jack input to plug in your phone or tablet directly.
• Micro Mic: Same functionality as the Multi Mic, without the mini-jack input.
• TV Streamer: Sends stereo sound from your TV, stereo, or computer directly to your hearing aids.
• Remote Control: A simple way to adjust your hearing aids day-to-day without reaching for your phone.
