The Audio Service G8 8 Mood R LI 8 in review
In this test report, we examine the G8 8 Mood R LI 8. It was developed by Audio Service and covers a light, medium, and stronger hearing need. This variant is worn behind the ear. The G8 8 Mood R LI 8 is a small hearing aid from a price tier slightly above the average. We achieve clean sound transmission through the discreet and simultaneously intelligent outsourcing of the speaker into the ear canal.
Hearing comfort
In our test, we typically start with the analysis of comfort features. A comfortable sound is characterized by a mix of speech and background noise that is realistic and as pleasant as possible. Various electronic tools take care of all the sounds. With the G8 8 Mood R LI 8, the manufacturer provides customers with comprehensive noise management. One of the noise tools is noise suppression, which is designed to dampen things like traffic noise, refrigerator humming, or computer ventilation. Here, the noise suppression works rather average but is somewhat adjustable.
A pulse sound attenuator for short, sharp noises is well integrated here and is perfectly adequate for everyday use. We rate the wind management as average, but it works. Spatial hearing must be trained a bit with these hearing aids. Although the movable microphones help, the placement on top of the auricle means that the spatial sound is not as it is for a normal hearing person. However, after a short acclimatization period, spatial hearing works quite well. A high number of frequency bands supports the separation of speech and noise. The G8 8 Mood R LI 8 certainly ranks well within its category with its 16 bands.
For difficult hearing situations, Audio Service offers a special strategy: In the app, you will find an assistance feature that allows for spontaneous and tailored changes based on artificial intelligence. This acts as a kind of intelligent immediate assistance if you are not near your audiologist.
Rating Hearing comfort: 2,3
Operation & connectivity
Buttons, switches, controls ... or would you rather have an app? Control elements can significantly expand the functionality of hearing aids. Is there something like that in the G8 8 Mood R LI 8? We checked. For those who want to quickly and easily adjust the volume up or down, there is a button on the device. You can also choose additional programs for special hearing situations through it. Those who don't like to touch their ear to adjust the volume will appreciate the optional remote control. This allows you to make changes to the hearing aid conveniently and discreetly.
We are always pleased when a hearing aid surprises us with a great additional feature. For example, we would have liked to see voice control at this point. But currently, that is not available in the G8 8 Mood R LI 8. In addition to buttons or remote controls, some hearing aids still have a tap control. This means you can just tap your ear quickly, and the device switches. However, we do not have that here at Audio Service; it would have required specific sensors.
It is very convenient to adjust the hearing aids via the app. There is also a free app for the G8 8 Mood R LI 8. In our opinion, the functionality is average but generally sufficient. It’s best to try it out in demo mode beforehand. We really enjoyed the direct, wireless streaming. This means that calls from the smartphone are transmitted to the hearing aids without additional accessories. This turns the hearing aid into the perfect hands-free device or wireless headphones. Listening to music or watching and hearing videos is incredibly comfortable.

Simplicity & security
An important factor for the acceptance of a hearing aid is its suitability for everyday use. This includes, for example, automated functions as well as robustness and user-friendliness. The situation recognition integrated into the G8 8 Mood R LI 8 is categorized as being in the midfield. The most important loud and quiet situations are recognized and adapted. However, this is not quite sufficient for acoustically more complex moments, as additional manual adjustment options cannot be avoided. A great feature of this hearing aid is the automatic acclimatization. Especially when someone has been hearing poorly for a long time and then wears a hearing aid for the first time, it is a huge relief. The volume does not have to be turned up to maximum right away. One can start at a lower level, and gradually, almost unnoticed, the amplification approaches the target.
Easy handling in everyday life definitely includes the power supply. The G8 8 Mood R LI 8 has a built-in rechargeable battery that can be charged repeatedly. Since a single charge is sufficient for the whole day, we do not have to worry about the battery dying in the middle of a conversation.
The G8 8 is almost dust and waterproof and, with its IP 68 rating, is certainly well protected against external influences.

Extras
Now we have looked at the most important features of the hearing aid. But before we come to an end, we want to know if there are any additional features: Are you among those suffering from tinnitus? Then you could use the optional tinnitus program in the G8 8 Mood R LI 8. Soft, gentle sounds are tailored to your hearing and engage all areas of the inner ear. It's nothing more than a distraction tactic, and it works amazingly well. The tinnitus fades into the general noise and is no longer bothersome. This is a simple but effective tool and earns extra points from us.
A clever tool is the integrated remote service. Almost everyone has a smartphone, and time is a precious commodity. Therefore, such a remote service is absolutely appropriate. Those who need a new programming for their hearing aids can easily contact the audiologist through the app and describe their hearing wishes. Through a cloud service, the professional can then send a customized setting as a data package to the app. From there, it is uploaded to the hearing aid and can be tested immediately. This definitely earns extra points in our test.
With hearing aids, you can do much more than just hear. Here in the G8 8 Mood R LI 8, for example, there is the option to analyze your movement data. Then you can check in the evening how far you have walked. This type of health tracking is interesting for many customers, so that more functions could be added through future updates. This Audio Service hearing aid has no additional lifestyle options onboard. Elsewhere, there are voice assistants or reminder functions, but you don’t need that for good hearing. It would just have made the product a little cooler.
Rating Extras: 1,8
