Finding the right hearing aid is not simply about making sounds louder.

For people with moderate to severe hearing loss, the real challenge is often understanding speech, dealing with background noise, and finding comfortable sound in different environments.

A hearing aid that works well in a quiet room may feel very different in a busy restaurant. A setting that works for watching TV may not be ideal for an outdoor walk.

That is why personalised hearing adjustment matters.

The Retekess TE105 RIC hearing aid is designed for people with moderate to severe hearing loss who want more control over how they hear in everyday life. Its combination of hearing test and audiogram-based adjustment, independent four-band sound control for each ear, and IP68 waterproof protection is designed to provide a more personalised and practical hearing experience.

Your hearing is unique. Your hearing aid should be able to adapt to you.

Start With Your Own Hearing: Test and Personalise Your Hearing Aid

Two people can both have hearing loss but experience very different difficulties.

You may hear low-frequency sounds relatively well but struggle with higher-frequency speech sounds. Someone else may have a different hearing profile.

This is why simply increasing overall volume may not provide the listening experience you want.

The TE105 app allows you to perform a hearing test and enter your hearing test results or audiogram, providing a starting point for personalised hearing adjustment.

Instead of using exactly the same amplification profile for everyone, you can adjust the hearing aid according to your own hearing characteristics.

From Hearing Test to Personalised Settings

The process is designed to be straightforward:

Test your hearing → Enter or import your hearing profile → Adjust hearing settings → Experience the difference

If you already have an audiogram from a hearing professional, you can use your hearing results as a reference when setting up the hearing aid.

This gives you greater control over your listening experience and can be particularly useful when your hearing needs are different between your two ears.

The goal is not simply louder sound. It is sound that is better matched to you.

Important: An app-based hearing test is intended to support hearing-aid adjustment and should not be considered a substitute for a professional hearing assessment or medical diagnosis. If you experience sudden hearing loss, significant changes in hearing, persistent ear pain, drainage, severe dizziness, or other concerning symptoms, seek professional medical advice.

Four Sound Adjustments for Each Ear: More Control in Real Life 

One of the biggest challenges with hearing aids is that real life does not have one sound environment.

The TE105 provides four adjustable sound-control bands for each ear, giving you more flexibility to personalise how your hearing aid responds.

These include:

Noise Reduction

When the environment gets noisy, increase noise suppression.

Restaurants, cafés, shopping centres and family gatherings can contain many competing sounds.

Adjusting noise reduction can help make the listening environment feel more manageable when background noise becomes distracting.

Instead of simply turning up the volume, you can adjust the level of noise control according to your environment.

Speech Enhancement

When voices sound too quiet, increase speech enhancement.

For many people with hearing loss, the most important sound is not traffic, music or surrounding activity.

It is the person speaking.

Speech enhancement gives you an additional way to adjust support for voices when conversations feel too quiet or difficult to follow.

This can be particularly useful during everyday conversations with:

Your spouse

Children and grandchildren

Friends

Colleagues

Caregivers

Because hearing better is ultimately about staying connected to people.

Impulse Noise Reduction

When sudden sounds feel sharp or uncomfortable, adjust impulse-noise reduction.

Everyday life contains unexpected sounds:

A door closes.

A plate is placed on a table.

A pan hits a kitchen surface.

Something drops onto the floor.

These sudden sounds can be particularly unpleasant for some hearing-aid users.

Impulse-noise reduction allows you to adjust the level of support designed to reduce the impact of sudden, sharp sounds.

The result is a potentially more comfortable listening experience without simply reducing all surrounding sound.

Wind Noise Reduction

When you're outdoors, adjust wind-noise control according to the conditions.

Walking outside can create a very different listening environment from sitting indoors.

Wind can create unwanted noise around the hearing aid microphones, particularly during walking, cycling or other outdoor activities.

The TE105 allows you to adjust wind-noise reduction according to the conditions.

So instead of having one fixed setting for every situation, you have more flexibility when moving between:

Home → Street → Park → Outdoor activities

Left Ear and Right Ear Can Be Adjusted Independently

Everyone's hearing is different.

And your left ear may not hear exactly the same way as your right ear.

The TE105 allows independent four-band adjustment for each ear, giving you more control over your individual listening needs.

This means you can fine-tune the left and right hearing aids rather than treating both ears as if they were identical.

For people who have different hearing profiles between their ears, this level of control can make the personalisation process more meaningful.

One Hearing Aid Setting Doesn't Have to Fit Every Situation

Think about a typical day.

Morning at Home

You have a quiet conversation with your partner.

You may want a more natural and comfortable sound.

Afternoon Outdoors

You go for a walk.

Wind and environmental sounds become more noticeable.

You can adjust wind-noise control according to the conditions.

Dinner With Family

Several people are talking at the same time.

Background noise becomes more challenging.

You can increase noise reduction and speech enhancement according to your preferences.

Evening at Home

You sit down to watch television.

The environment becomes quiet again.

Your hearing settings can be adjusted to suit this different listening situation.

One day. Four different listening environments. More control when you need it.

IP68 Waterproof Protection for Everyday Confidence

Fully protected against sweat, splashes, and light to moderate rain (up to 7.6 mm/h or 0.30 in/h per international meteorological standards).

Note: If exposed to rain, dry the microphone ports with a soft cloth to ensure clear sound quality.

A hearing aid is designed to be part of your everyday life.

That means it may encounter:

Sweat

Humidity

Light rain

Accidental splashes

Dust

For people who live active lifestyles, moisture protection can be an important consideration when choosing a hearing aid.

The TE105 features an IP68 protection rating, providing a high level of protection against dust and water under specified test conditions.

That can provide additional confidence during everyday activities such as walking outdoors, exercising, travelling or spending time outside.

But IP68 Does Not Mean "Wear It Swimming"

Water resistance has limits.

IP68 protection should not be interpreted as permission to swim, shower, or intentionally submerge the hearing aid unless the manufacturer specifically states that the device is designed for those conditions.

Always follow the product's care and usage instructions.

Why a RIC Design Makes Sense for Everyday Hearing

The TE105 uses a RIC (Receiver-in-Canal) design.

With the receiver positioned closer to the ear canal, RIC hearing aids can offer a compact and discreet design while keeping the main body behind the ear.

For users who wear hearing aids for many hours each day, comfort and fit are important considerations.

A hearing aid should not simply provide amplification.

It should fit naturally into your routine.

Is the TE105 Right for You?

The TE105 RIC hearing aid may be worth considering if you:

✔ Have moderate to severe hearing loss

✔ Want a hearing aid that can be personalised to your hearing profile

✔ Already have an audiogram and want to use it for hearing-aid adjustment

✔ Want independent sound control for your left and right ears

✔ Spend time in noisy environments

✔ Want additional speech enhancement when voices sound too quiet

✔ Spend time outdoors and want IP68 protection

✔ Prefer a RIC design for everyday wearing

Most importantly, the TE105 is designed for people who don't want their hearing aid to simply make everything louder.
