Phonak’s latest hearing solutions
In late 2016 they launched their latest generation of hearing aid technology with the ‘Belong’ platform which has all but replaced their Venture hearing aids. This is their innovative new sound processing chip technology which replaced their previous ‘Venture’ chip. The initial introduction was their Audeo Belong Receiver In Canal hearing aid range. In 2017 they released the Bolero Belong range they have also launched a Virto Titanium custom hearing aid. The full range of Virto Belong hearing aids have yet to be launched, so for now outside the Titanium, you will have to look at the Virto Venture range for custom in the ear hearing aids.
Audéo B Direct Hearing Aids

Another new hearing aid from Phonak at the tail-end of 2017. The Virto B range is focused on providing the perfect fit, these are small in-the-ear hearing aids that are practically invisible to others.
These discrete hearing aids sit deep and snug inside the ear canal, giving you the confidence to go about your day, knowing you will hear well at all times.
Each ear is unique
Each and every person is individual. Just like a fingerprint, every ear is unique. Even our left ear differs from our right. The distinctive characteristics of our ear anatomy has an influence on how sound is captured, directed towards the ear drum and converted into information that the brain can understand.
Effortless hearing at all times
Virto B hearing aids feature a unique operating system called AutoSense OS. It automatically senses your surroundings and adjusts your hearing aids every step of the way. It can recognise and respond to your environments, giving you optimal hearing ability in restaraunt, the car or at home.
Virto B-Titanium Invisible Hearing Aids
As part of a raft of introductions in 2017, Phonak announced that they were introducing a new Virto hearing aid type as part of their Virto Belong range. The device is groundbreaking, it is the first hearing aid device to use medical grade titanium to form the custom shell. They say that they have used the properties of the metal to ensure that they can offer discreet custom hearing aids to more people than ever before possible.

Bolero Belong Hearing Devices
With the launch of the new Bolero Belong platform of Behind The Ear hearing aids, Phonak have launched their anticipated lithium-ion rechargeable BTE, the Bolero B-PR. It is the first Lithium-ion rechargeable BTE to the market and the first rechargeable BTE for Phonak. They say that the battery pack will deliver 24 hours of hearing with one simple charge (expected results when fully charged, and up to 80 minutes wireless streaming time) which is in line with the performance of the Audeo B-R.
The P hearing aid style is quite a powerful aid and can be expected to be fitted to people with severe hearing loss. The device has a programme button, volume control and a telecoil onboard. The amplification output of this aid demands a lot of power, so Phonak must be very confident with the battery technology.
In line with the Audeo Belong, the range will run on the new improved AutoSense OS and will come in the usual four levels of technology. However, the new rechargeable option will not be available in the lowest level of technology.
