Rexton Reach SlimRIC 40 hearing aids overview
Sleek, durable, and packed with advanced technology, the Rexton Reach SlimRIC 40 hearing aids are crafted to enhance your listening experience.
Combining Reach technology with Rexton’s Lifeproof features, these hearing aids deliver clear, high-quality sound, even in noisy surroundings.
With handy features like Bluetooth streaming, directional microphones, and advanced sound processing, the SlimRIC 40 keeps you connected and engaged.
The Rexton Reach SlimRIC 40 hearing aids use Voice Stabiliser technology to optimise background noise, making sure voices come through at the perfect volume.
Designed to help you stay involved in group conversations, even in challenging environments, these hearing aids ensure clear and uninterrupted communication.
Here’s a quick look at what you can expect from the SlimRIC 40:
- Excellent speech clarity and noise reduction
- Multi-Voice Focus for smooth conversations
- Auto EchoShield to reduce echo effects
- Own Voice Processing for a natural sound
- Rechargeable with the option to charge on the go
- Connects to smartphones and TVs (via TV streamer)
- Includes telecoil
Rexton Reach SlimRIC 40’s Multi-Voice Focus and Voice Stabiliser
The SlimRIC 40’s Multi-Voice Focus scans your surroundings 1000 times per second using four separate focus beams.
This enables it to adjust seamlessly to the flow of conversation, picking up the voices of speakers while also tracking quieter ones, all without needing to switch modes or causing any delays.
The Voice Stabiliser amplifies all voices within the focus beams, even when their volume varies.
It effectively manages sound compression to maintain a strong signal-to-noise ratio, allowing you to focus on the clearest voices while ensuring a clear and natural sound free from background noise.
Reach SlimRIC 40’s Sound Processing
The Rexton Reach SlimRIC 40 comes with enhanced sound processing technology, offering a big boost in clarity, particularly in noisy environments.
It’s equipped with directional microphones, advanced sound algorithms, feedback cancellation, and noise reduction, helping it tackle a range of audio challenges.
One of the key upgrades in this model is its multi-talker beam-forming technology, which makes it easier to hear clearly when several people are speaking in noisy settings.
This feature sets the SlimRIC 40 apart from older models.
Rexton’s white paper highlights both the objective improvements in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the positive feedback from users, showing just how effective it is in real-life situations.
Connectivity and durability of the Rexton Reach SlimRIC 40 hearing aids
Rexton hearing aids come with Bluetooth.
Making it easy to connect to iPhones via MFi (Made for iPhone) technology for hands-free calling.
For Android users, Rexton hearing aids also support ASHA (Audio Streaming for Hearing Aids), allowing hands-free calling on compatible Android devices.
The hands-free calling feature is incredibly useful, as phone calls are still a major part of everyday communication.
Plus, you’ll enjoy excellent sound quality when streaming music or podcasts.
Looking to the future, Rexton hearing aids are designed to be future-proof with support for LE Audio.
As Bluetooth LE becomes more widely used, a firmware update will let you access the latest features without needing to buy new hearing aids.
Rexton Reach SlimRIC 40 app, battery life, model, and colours
The SlimRIC 40 hearing aids work seamlessly with the Rexton hearing aid app, allowing you to easily adjust volume and settings.
You can also access remote audiology support, giving you convenient care whenever you need it, without the hassle of scheduling an in-person appointment.
Rexton Reach hearing aids have the lowest power consumption of any Rexton device, providing 20% longer battery life.
A full charge gives you up to 28 hours of use without streaming, or 24 hours with 5 hours of streaming.
If you’re short on time, a quick 30-minute charge will give you 6 hours of use without streaming, or 4 hours with full streaming.
These hearing aids come in a range of stylish colours: Black and Black, Snow White and Snow White, Black and Silver, Cosmic Blue and Rose Gold, and Snow White and Rose Gold.
Comparing the Reach SlimRIC 40 with the 80
The SlimRIC comes in three technology levels, and for the best speech recognition in noisy environments, we recommend going for the 80 level or, at the very least, the 60 level.
If your social interactions are more limited, the 40 level still provides good speech clarity for everyday situations.
However, with the 40 level, you’ll get less contrast in voice analysis and miss out on a few features:
- Multi-Voice support: Only tracks multiple voices in the front focus area.
- Layers of analysis: The 40-level includes just two layers—number of voices and position.
It doesn’t cover proximity (up to 2m) or turn-taking and timing, which are part of the higher levels.

Free phone consultation with hearing test results
The first part of the process is contacting us for your free phone consultation to ensure we can help support you in selecting the most suitable hearing aids.
Our audiologist will request your latest hearing test results so they can analyse your results using specialised software and pre-program your hearing aids based on those results.
Please note, Puretone hearing aids are already pre-programmed for mild to moderate or moderate to severe hearing loss.
We can then provide a preliminary assessment, ensuring you have a clear understanding of our hearing aid options available online.
The main goal of this phone consultation is to support and guide you to make an informed decision about your hearing aid(s) purchase.
Fitting
Upon receiving your hearing aids, which have already been pre-programmed using your hearing test results, they are ready for immediate use, and you can put them in straight away.
Our audiologist will contact you to ensure that you are hearing clearly through them and understand how to put them in and perform basic maintenance.
If necessary, we can make remote adjustments there and then to further customise your hearing aids to your personal preferences. This excludes Puretone hearing aids.
Reprogramming
Sometimes further appointments are needed to fine-tune the aids once you are more used to wearing them.
Our hearing aid customer service includes complimentary reprogramming and readjustment of your hearing aids through remote assistance with one of our audiologists at a convenient time for you. This excludes Puretone hearing aids.
Need more support with remote programming?
Long after your purchase, we will be here to assist you with your hearing aids.
Our comprehensive customer service includes phone and email contact with your audiologist, and we provide ongoing remote adjustments, fine-tuning, and reprogramming, which excludes Puretone hearing aids.

Frequently Asked Questions
If you’re experiencing significant hearing loss in both ears, you will need two hearing aids. Here are the audiological reasons behind our audiologist’s recommendation:
Localisation: Our brains rely on information from both ears to accurately determine the source of sounds. We can precisely locate where a sound is coming from by analysing the small time delays and differences in loudness between sounds reaching each ear. For example, if one ear has better hearing than the other, it becomes challenging to understand the direction of sounds.
Head Shadow Effect: High-frequency sounds, crucial for speech clarity, cannot effectively bend around your head, unlike low-frequency sounds. For example, if someone is speaking on your unaided side, you might hear that they are talking but struggle to understand what they are saying.
Reduced Amplification: A phenomenon called “binaural summation” means that when using two balanced hearing aids, your brain provides a natural boost of around three decibels by combining the signals, which means that the hearing aids can operate at lower, more natural volume settings when compared to a single hearing aid.
Sound Quality: Human hearing is designed for stereo perception. Hearing from only one side sounds less natural to us and can impact our overall auditory experience.
Noise Reduction: Our brains naturally possess a built-in noise reduction mechanism, which works most effectively when it receives sound input from both ears. If only one ear is aided, even with a high-quality hearing aid, it becomes challenging to hear clearly in noisy environments as your brain attempts to process all sounds, including background noise, instead of filtering them out.
For many, the main advantage of using a rechargeable hearing aid is its sheer convenience. We’ve grown accustomed to charging our phones and other devices overnight, and a rechargeable hearing aid aligns with this familiar routine.
This convenience is especially beneficial for those who have limited dexterity or finger-related issues since standard hearing aid batteries can be quite small and challenging to manipulate.
However, one drawback is that there’s no immediate solution if you forget to charge your hearing aid. In most cases, a 30-minute charge provides at least two to three hours of power, but if you tend to regularly forget to charge devices, traditional batteries might be a better fit for you.
In general, the number of channels in a hearing aid is a topic that often comes up, as they play a crucial role in improving your ability to hear and understand speech in various listening environments. Channels are frequently used by audiologists to simplify the explanation of why one hearing aid might be considered superior to another. However, the concept of channels is more intricate than it may seem.
Hearing aids serve to amplify sounds at various frequencies to different degrees. Since most people experience greater hearing loss in high frequencies compared to low frequencies, more amplification is often required in the higher ranges. These sound frequencies are categorised into separate bands or channels, with hearing aids being adjusted to deliver the precise amplification needed for each frequency level.
Having fewer channels makes this adjustment less precise and means the device is more of a basic hearing aid. Therefore, the hearing aid would offer limited additional features and is typically suitable for situations like one-on-one conversations in quiet environments.
Most modern hearing aids use channels to provide a more natural and comfortable listening experience. With precise frequency control, hearing aids can maintain the natural balance of sounds, ensuring that environmental sounds, speech and other auditory cues sound lifelike and clear.
Another example of how modern hearing aids optimise channels is automation. Hearing aids that are able to automatically adapt to various situations. For example, in a quiet environment, they will focus on speech clarity, whilst in a noisy environment they will switch to emphasising on noise reduction.
The number of channels is just one aspect to consider; the overall technology package and the way the audiologists program the devices are equally important. Different hearing aid manufacturers take diverse approaches, and the number of channels is not necessarily an indicator of quality, but how they are configurated to improve your hearing and quality of life.
It’s a really simple, hassle-free process that only takes a few steps. All you have to do is choose your hearing aids from our wide range of options, we sell all of the latest models from the top brands, but with the lowest prices in the UK.
Send us your latest hearing test results and our audiologists will then expertly program your hearing aids based on your level of hearing loss, preferences and specific needs. We will then post your hearing aids directly to you.
Once you receive your new hearing aids, our audiologists will fine-tune your devices remotely at a time that suits you. You can then enjoy better hearing on a better budget with a 60-day returns policy – so you can wear your hearing aids with confidence and peace of mind.
At The Hearing Shop, we are dedicated to providing the best customer service and care in the industry. Unlike some other online hearing aid companies, we have a full-time designating professional audiologist who remotely programs all of our customer’s hearing aids.
With 10 years of remote fitting experience, your hearing aids will be programmed by an audiologist you can trust. Giving you peace of mind and confidence that your hearing aids will be reliable and support you and your hearing.
