Wearers increasingly enjoy hearing aids that offer great clarity when used with other devices, such as mobile phones, digital radio, plasma televisions, and personal music players. With wirelessly connected hearing aids, the signal from the paired device is played directly into the hearing aid, turning the device into a wireless earphone, via Bluetooth or 2.4 gHz technology. The benefit is that this offers exceptional clarity.
Oticon Opn S is major step forward in hearing aid technology – ground breaking in fact. While we have placed it here under the category of “Best for Wireless Connectivity”, as more users take up the solution and we witness more users trial the Opn S device, it may prove itself as the world’s most advanced hearing aid.
While wireless hearing aids have typically required the use of “third-party” accessories that connect the hearing aid, Oticon Opn S connects directly to a user’s iPhone and Android. Therefore users can stream music and telephone calls directly into their hearing aids, using an Oticon ON App on their smartphone. This app is also available for Android, and also allows users to adjust volume and choose what they want to, and don’t want to, hear.
From focus on one to multiple speaker Previously, most hearing aids coped with noisy environments by focusing on one speaker – typically the one in front of you. Now, the technology in Oticon Opn S gives you access to the relevant sounds around you, including speech, and puts you in charge of which sounds you want to focus on.
No more whistling sounds A groundbreaking feature makes Oticon Opn S able to detect and prevent annoying whistling sounds before they even occur.
