Review: Superb product! - This is by far the very best stethoscope I have ever owned! Digitally augmented sound quality is fantastic for listening to hearts and lungs...or whatever else you want to. Eko app works to record A/V details of the investigations and keeps records of each person separate. Much easier listening and graphic storage. Couldn't be better!
Review: Fantastic to hear in difficult environments and to play back or view the data. - I work in a voluntary team that can be called to do medical cover in potentially noisy environments. A trainer we know had one of these and one of our guys thought it would be a great idea for those who might use a stethoscope in our situation. I don't but others in the team do and I bought this one for one of them as a birthday gift. It doesn't get a huge amount of use in our environment but when it has the amplification and ability to review what has been heard has been brilliant. Since then another team member has got one and both use theirs in their day jobs on wards and in the ambulance service as well as when doing other medical event work. There's none of this did I hear that right or are you sure you heard that as you can recheck.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Surprisingly good!
*by T***R on 26 February 2022*

As a medical educator I bought this hoping for something to help students in small group teaching to appreciate real life auscultation sounds. This item is great! More interesting is I have had a student with mild hearing loss who has struggled and this item through the earpieces amplifies and cuts background noise very effectively. Game changer. If I have a grumble it’s that the app is quite quiet on the phone when playing back sounds as clearly designed for headphones so if developers would tweak that then I would be forced to admit they had the perfect teaching aid. Grudgingly I also have to say in my general practice work I’m amazed how much more I am hearing and how much more confidence this provides me in clinical decisions.
