One of the latest models, the Opn S is a rechargeable hearing aid that continues to break the rules of what was formerly thought possible in a hearing aid. Speech recognition is truly taken to the next level with 360-degree sensitivity, and wireless connectivity makes it possible to move fluidly from one listening context to the next. Where former models had problems with whistling in certain contexts, including while talking on the phone, the Opn S has eliminated that annoying problem, and Bluetooth connectivity makes it even easier to switch between a phone call and listening to someone call out from another room. The Oticon ON app also allows you to control the levels of amplification and the type of sound you need to hear in varying contexts.
For each of these hearing aid manufacturers, an even wider range of options are available to suit your individual needs and budget. Though some people will be intrigued by the possibility of artificial intelligence integrating with health data and emergency response, others prefer the simplicity of a hearing aid suited to amplification alone. In consultation with our specialists, the Hearing Institute of Texas can help pair you with the right set of aids to meet your needs.
