Lots. They all make things a bit louder. Most will allow which frequencies are made louder, so you fill in the gaps in the hearing curve (like mine, where I lose high frequency sounds while not having lost any hearing volume). Some add Bluetooth (useful, since apart from the app to control them you can also use them as earbuds for your phone and car). Some add noise cancellation (a feature I should have paid for in hindsight). Size is also a factor in cost - in ear more expensive than the rest
I went for the mid-range Phonak behind the ear pair for around £1600.

Not really. The audiologist should be able to draw a graph of your hearing against the perfect result, and so show what bits you are missing. Simply making things louder doesn't work, you have to get your graph as close as you can to the ideal. So you want something that can program out those gpas by amplifying the missing frequency ranges.
Bluetooth is bloody useful.
Battery as opposed to rechargeable.
I went with the Phonak Audeo Marvel M70 pair. YMMV...![]()
