Phonak Launch Dalia and Naida S I to Market

April 11th, 2012 by Paul Minikin

Phonak have released some entry level hearing aids to the UK market based on the very successful Spice platform, namely the Phonak Dalia to replace the now ageing Phonak Milo Plus, and the Phonak Naida S I, an entry level super power BTE.

These models mean that the full and current Phonak portfolio of products is base in its entirety on the Spice chipset.

Phonak Dalia has four channels and four manual program slots, SoundRecover, UltraZoom Essential, NoiseBlock and WhistleBlock amongst its plus points, not a bad suite of features for an entry level product. It is a good product for the budget conscious client not wishing to take advantage of wireless additions or automatic functions. The Dalia in its different forms is available in various power levels too, depending on the model power levels available are M, P, SP and UP.

Phonak Naida S I is the latest addition to the Naida range of water resistant super power BTE hearing aids, with a similar feature range as the Phonak Dalia it is a real option for the client looking for a no-frills budget version of the Naida.

Phonak ComPilot and TVLink S

November 7th, 2011 by Paul Minikin

Phonak have launched a new wireless accessory onto the market called ComPilot. The Phonak ComPilot is an upgrade to the iCom bluetooth streaming accessory and combines this function with a remote control.

Interestingly the ComPilot just about doubles the time between charges, a welcome improvement, and lasts around 8 hours of streaming.

The ComPilot is compatible with Phonak hearing aids in the Spice range and promises easy wireless access to TV’s, MP3 players, phones and much more. The remote control aspect allows changes of volume and programs and handily offers the benefit of spoken alerts, making it even easier to interact with your Phonak hearing aids.

Because of the different dimensions compared to the iCom, a new TVLink S has been made available to partner up with the ComPilot, this basically does the same job as the standard TVLink but is compatible with the new ComPilot.

Phonak have a great reputation for making great power hearing aids, the Phonak Naida range has been a good choice for those suffering with profound hearing loss.

Now there is a nice cosmetic solution from Phonak, the Naida S CRT. It’s a neat small RIC product with a power speaker wire that as a bonus has a water and dust resistant housing.

The Naida S CRT uses a size 13 battery, has a telecoil and a push button control.

The Naida S CRT is available in three performance levels to mirror the rest of the Naida S range, the IX, V and III and ships for the same price as it’s bigger cousins in the range.

A real alternative for the customer with profound hearing loss that needs cosmetics and perhaps some of the wireless steaming accessories that are compatible through the range of Phonak hearing aids.

Phonak Nano miniature hearing aid range launched

October 29th, 2011 by Paul Minikin

Phonak have launched a brand new range of miniature hearing aids called the Phonak Nano. The Nano has a couple of design features designed to enable Phonak to manufacture a virtually invisible hearing aid to rival the Starkey SoundLens and the Siemens iMini, namely a new shell process that is 40% thinner than previous processes but also stronger, and a smaller redesigned nano faceplate.

Phonak have also put a lot of work into being able to pack all the components into a smaller space, the net result being a tiny aid that sits far down the ear canal for virtual invisibity.

Available in two technology levels of Phonak Ambra and Solana, and the deep placement in the ear canal, we’re sure the hearing quality and discreet nature of the product will make it a winner and a real rival to Starkey and Siemens in the sub CIC market.
