The ReSound Nexia 5 Akku ITE in review
Diese Technik wurde im Februar 2025 von den ReSound Vivia abgelöst ist daher nicht mehr ganz aktuell . Aus diesem Grund nehmen eine Abwertung in der Gesamtnote vor.
What hearing comfort does the Nexia 5 Battery ITE provide? How is it operated? Is the purchase worth it? Answers to these questions can be found in our review of this hearing aid from ReSound. First, the basics: It is worn in the ear, and due to the sound exit located close to the eardrum, the sound can easily travel toward the eardrum. This is important because it is the only way to produce a really good, wideband sound.
The Nexia 5 Battery ITE is a small hearing aid in the upper price segment that can cover mild, moderate, and even severe hearing needs. Read more details:
Hearing comfort
In our test, we usually 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 Nexia 5 battery ITE, solid comfort programming is possible through the audiologist. One of the noise tools is the noise suppression, which is supposed to dampen noises like traffic noise, refrigerator hum, or PC fan noise. Here, the noise suppression works quite well. While there are other models that significantly reduce background noise, this one should suffice for everyday hearing.
Fast, sharp sounds are detected here, but only moderately reduced. Those who enjoy being outdoors will appreciate the wind noise suppression. It may not dampen as strongly, but it is definitely useful. The adjustable microphones help to recognize specific directions and can also assist in noise cancellation, but the spatial sound was not very natural. The Nexia 5 battery ITE does not have many adjustable equalizer bands, but the 12 should be sufficient for a good listening result.
Strategies based on artificial intelligence have not yet been implemented in this hearing aid from ReSound.
Rating Hearing comfort: 2,9
Operation & connectivity
Digital hearing aids have long evolved beyond just the normal amplification function. Apps and other control options significantly expand the range of functions, which is why we also take a look at this important topic with the ReSound Nexia 5 rechargeable ITE. For those who want to quickly and easily adjust the volume up or down, there is a button on the device. You can also select additional programs for special hearing situations through it. We really like the small remote controls, and for this model, we found one. This allows for discreet adjustments to the volume or sound.
For some time now, there has been a trend to adjust hearing aids louder or quieter using voice commands. The idea is really good, but ReSound is not quite there with this device yet. Don't worry about it; this feature would be nice, but it's not essential. If there are sensors in the hearing aid, a tap control could be feasible, which would trigger a specific function by tapping your fingers on the ear. However, this option is not available in the Nexia 5 rechargeable ITE.
Adjusting loudness or special functions via an app is already widespread today, and the Nexia 5 rechargeable ITE also follows this path and provides us with an app. This app offers much more than just hearing aid functions and gives us a glimpse of what hearing aids could be used for in the future - besides good hearing. The Nexia 5 comes with a 2.4 GHz antenna and allows us to enjoy binaural phone calls. This even gives us an advantage over normally hearing individuals. We think that's great and are happy to give points for it.
Rating Operation & connectivity: 1,3

Simplicity & security
Now let's briefly discuss everyday practicality. Is the Nexia 5 Battery ITE user-friendly and easy to handle? Does it have water protection? Here are our findings: The Nexia 5 Battery ITE automatically accesses the most important hearing settings, making daily use easier. However, those who frequently experience changing acoustic environments should have the manual additional programs configured. We are very pleased with the integrated acclimatization manager. It gradually increases the volume of the hearing device in tiny steps until our target amplification is eventually reached. We can relax and gradually get used to the new hearing impressions.
Easy handling in everyday life definitely includes power supply. The Nexia 5 Battery ITE has a built-in battery and is rechargeable. Since a single charge is sufficient for the entire day, we do not have to worry about the battery dying in the middle of a conversation.
We experienced a carefree everyday life in our test due to the IP-68 certification. This indicates that the hearing aid is particularly well protected against dust and water. We marched through the rain and then took out the hearing aids with wet hands - no problem at all. However, the water resistance really only applies to fresh, natural water and not to foamy bathwater or saltwater.
Rating Simplicity & security: 1,5

Extras
We all like goodies, so let's take a last look at the extras that may be hidden in the hearing aid. A special tinnitus program can be programmed on request in the Nexia 5 Akku ITE. This allows stimulating, pleasant sounds to be generated that distract from the tinnitus when it is particularly strong. We find this very useful and happily award extra points.
ReSound keeps up with the times and offers a forward-looking feature with the remote fitting service. Working individuals with little time can contact their audiologist online and have their hearing aids reprogrammed. Hearing aid users who have a longer journey to the specialist store also benefit from this special service.
There are no sensors in this Nexia 5 variant, so popular health tracking cannot be offered. For example, steps are counted throughout the day. As mentioned – this hearing aid does not have this function. It would have been nice to have some lifestyle features, but the Nexia 5 Akku ITE does not include them. Other hearing aids may excel with features like speech translation or fall alerts, but here it remains within the usual range of functions.
Rating Extras: 2,5
Conclusion: ReSound Nexia 5 Akku ITE
Mit der Endnote 2,62 behauptet sich dieses Modell im mittleren Bereich. Es hat eine ganz passable Komfortausstattung mit an Bord, die für die typischen Alltagsmomente reicht und ein zufriedenstellendes Hörerlebnis schafft.
