The Widex Moment 440 BTE R D in review
Dieses Gerät ist technisch nicht mehr ganz akutell und wurde von der Widex Allure-Familie abgelöst. Wir nehmen daher eine Abwertung der Gesamtnote vor.
Our testers have examined another hearing aid from the highest quality segment. We present: the Widex Moment 440 BTE R D. Here we have a previously widely used hearing aid worn behind the ear. It can be used by anyone who wants to compensate for both mild and stronger hearing needs. The Moment 440 BTE R D is a small hearing aid. Is it worth purchasing this model? We will reveal the details.
Hearing comfort
Good speech understanding is a given in modern hearing aids. Equally important is hearing comfort. Only when the ratio of speech transmission to the level of ambient noise is right will hearing be perceived as pleasant. That’s why we take a look at the comfort features: The Moment 440 BTE R D provides customers with comprehensive noise management. Normal ambient sounds such as street noise, the sound of the vacuum cleaner, or the sound from the fan should be dampened by classic noise suppression. In this Widex hearing aid, we are satisfied with the effectiveness of the noise suppression. It can not only be turned on or off but also adjusted gradually.
Impulse sounds occur very frequently in everyday life. There’s the dishwasher that needs to be unloaded, or the bunch of keys that gets put on the table. The Moment 440 BTE R D has strong impulse sound management that makes these sounds bearable. Here, the wind suppression is very solid and satisfies us in everyday life. Directional hearing often needs a little support for hearing aid users. The Moment 440 BTE R D provides this support confidently and allows for good spatial orientation. The more bands the equalizer in the hearing aid has, the more reliable the separation of speech from background noise is. The sound can also be shaped better. The Moment 440 BTE R D has 15 bands and is thus one of the more powerful models.
Sometimes the hearing care professional is not nearby when a hearing problem arises. The Moment 440 BTE R D helps you with its app, as there is a special assistant that makes precise adjustments to your hearing moment based on artificial intelligence.
Rating Hearing comfort: 2,2
Widex Moment 440 BTE R D:
Operation & connectivity
The control options for hearing aids today are as simple or as complex as one would like. The basic functions operate fully automatically, of course. We wanted to know how users can access the Moment 440 BTE R D beyond that. For those who want to quickly and easily adjust the volume, there is a button on the device. Additional programs for special hearing situations can also be selected through it. A remote control is available for the Moment 440 BTE R D. It's quite practical, fits in your pocket, and offers a volume up-down option as well as various hearing programs.
For some time now, there has been a trend to adjust hearing aids using voice commands. The idea is really good, but Widex is not there yet with this device. Don't worry, this feature would be nice, but it is dispensable. In addition to buttons or remote controls, some hearing aids also have a tap control. This means you can simply tap your ear briefly to switch the device. However, we don't have that feature here at Widex; it would have required specific sensors.
You can best adjust the Moment 440 BTE R D with the associated app. The earlier apps had just a single screen, but this one offers far more than just the usual volume control. It clearly has points from us. One of the best features in the hearing aid is the direct streaming function. This turns the hearing aid into a TrueWireless headphone, receiving phone calls and other sounds directly in the ear. A suitable smartphone that contains the 2.4 GHz technology is a requirement. The biggest advantage is that you can hear phone calls in both ears, not just one. Additionally, the sound can be tailored to personal preferences.

Simplicity & security
Continuing with the test: How is the user-friendliness? Is it easy or complicated to handle the hearing aid? With an exceptionally well-functioning situation automatic, the Moment 440 BTE R D excels in everyday performance. The finely tuned detection of the acoustic scenery allows us to effortlessly navigate through different listening environments without needing to manually adjust. That is exactly what we expect from a hearing aid. Some people have difficulty with the adjustment period, but this hearing aid makes it easy for us to adapt to the new volume. There is an acclimatization manager that gradually leads us to the required target amplification. The duration can range from a few weeks to several months, and this is individually adjustable. The individual steps are so small that you hardly notice that there has been a volume increase.
The Moment 440 BTE R D is rechargeable and does not require any hearing aid batteries anymore. This is environmentally friendly, as there are no old batteries to dispose of. At the same time, it is also extremely convenient since no spare batteries need to be carried. The hearing aids simply go into the charging station in the evening and are ready for use the next morning.
The data sheet certifies the Widex device with an IP protection class rating of 68. This makes it one of the most resilient hearing aids on the market. Dust doesn’t stand a chance, and water cannot penetrate the housing unless submerged deeper than 1.5 meters. However, be cautious. Shampoo, for example, alters the surface tension of the water. You should also avoid saltwater. In everyday life, however, you can behave completely carefree.
Rating Simplicity & security: 1,0
Extras
Finally, let's briefly check if there are any extras: Widex has integrated a noise generator that plays some soothing sounds for those suffering from tinnitus. This can distract from the tinnitus and provide a bit more relaxation.
The option for remote adjustment is very good. It is especially helpful when someone just wants to change a small detail in the hearing aid settings but does not want to travel to the audiologist. Instead, contact is made through the app, and the hearing professional sends back an adjusted data package in the same way.
If Widex had integrated motion sensors into this hearing aid, individual health tracking could even take place. However, this is not the case here. These points are lost for the moment in the rating of the 440 BTE R D. The device from Widex focuses on essential hearing functions and does not offer extras like voice assistants or translation features. While that would have been fun, it is not necessary for a good listening experience.
Rating Extras: 2,5
