New from Phonak: Virto R Infinio – Rechargeable Custom Hearing Aids Arrive!
We're excited to share the latest news from Phonak, a global leader in hearing care solutions, with the announcement of their new Phonak Virto R Infinio. This is Phonak's first, and most compact, rechargeable custom in-the-ear (ITE) hearing aid, powered by the advanced Infinio technology.
Phonak's launch marks a significant moment, as it's a step many have been anticipating for some time. While other manufacturers, such as Starkey, were first to market with a custom rechargeable in-the-ear hearing aid back in 2020, Phonak has now introduced their own solution, and we're keen to see how it develops and impacts the market.
What is the Phonak Virto R Infinio?
Designed for today's active and style-conscious individuals, the Virto R Infinio features a sleek, compact design that combines exceptional sound quality, seamless connectivity, and all-day comfort, fitting perfectly into a modern lifestyle.
According to Oliver Frank, Phonak Marketing Vice-President, "Users have long desired a small, discreet, and fully featured in-the-ear hearing aid. Through our innovative RightFit™ customization, the Phonak Virto R Infinio delivers what is likely the smallest rechargeable ITE, perfectly blending style and advanced functionality."
Phonak brand ambassador, Robin Gillon, a professional skier and pilot, highlighted the tremendous improvement in sound quality and speech understanding after testing the Virto R Infinio, noting, "I can hear conversations clearly, even in noisy environments." He also praised the impressive battery life, stating he never has to "worry about running out of power" even on long days with calls and streaming.
The Virto R Infinio is powered by AutoSense OS™ 7.0, which uses advanced machine learning. This system is trained with 18x more real-world sound environments, allowing it to adapt 24% more accurately to your listening situations.
