Phonak Hearing Aids
Phonak has invested more than 75 years of research and innovation since its founding in Switzerland in 1947. The company’s commitment to changing lives through the development, production and distribution of cutting-edge hearing solutions is reflected in producing hearing aids of superior quality, unparalleled precision and relentless reliability.
Phonak Alpina hearing aids, Phonak’s first portable hearing device introduced in 1950, were the first in a long line of hearing aid industry firsts, like their Visaton Super (glasses with integrated hearing aids), Phonette (the first BTE hearing aid) and the FM audio input system that became the foundation for FM hearing devices in the 1960s and 1970s.
Innovations in the 1990s included hearing aids with analogue processors and digital adjustment, the multi-microphone concept, MicroLink (the first tiny FM receiver) and a digital hearing system with FM receiver.
In 2003, using Bluetooth integration technology led to the development of bionic systems like Binaural VoiceStream Technology, and the 2007 development of water-resistant casings led to the design and production of Lyric extended wear hearing aids.
Phonak Processing Technology
Streaming the full audio bandwidth bi-directionally and in real-time makes it possible for Phonak hearing aids to deliver refined sound quality, enhanced by an AI processor capable of identifying your hearing environment in order to make automatic adjustments to unique listening environments.
The enhanced digital performance provided by these sound processing innovations works to produce a more natural, crisper sound clarity by limiting background noise, but it also assists with tinnitus management, thanks to integrated sound therapy features built into the device.
Phonak Hearing Aids Features
Among the standard features of Phonak hearing aids are Android and iPhone connectivity and Bluetooth compatibility for a seamless listening experience, allowing the user to pair their hearing aids with up to eight Bluetooth-enabled devices while two can remain connected simultaneously.
Along with integrated tinnitus management, some Phonak hearing aid models come with advanced battery charging capabilities, enhanced personalized sound quality controls, multifunctionality and along with the myPhonak app, access to remote support from the manufacturer and/or your hearing care provider from anywhere you can connect to the internet.
