Sonova CEO: Innovative hearing solutions for our customers

Phonak presents Marvel 2.0, the new generation of Marvel technology. It is specifically designed to offer hearing instrument wearers more hearing performance, more connectivity and app features, and more choices. Phonak Marvel is not only a fantastic hearing aid, but a multifunctional wonder that lets you experience love at first sound. Every day anew with the well-known advantages: clear full sound, direct connection to smartphones, TV and much more, lithium-ion battery technology and smart apps.  

With Marvel 2.0, Phonak introduces RogerDirect™ for all Marvel hearing aids and enables hearing aid wearers to overcome two of the biggest challenges still facing them: Understanding in noisy environments and at a distance. Marvel hearing instruments are now equipped with the groundbreaking RogerDirect technology. This enables the Roger signal to be transmitted directly to Marvel hearing aids without the need for an external receiver. This innovation combines the best of both worlds in an unbeatable combination.  

In addition to RogerDirect, Marvel hearing aids can now also be connected to two Bluetooth compatible audio devices. A further advantage when talking on the phone: With Marvel hearing aids wearers can make hands-free calls, while the Smartphone remains in the pocket. Contrary to other hearing aids Marvel can be connected directly with iOS®, Android™ or other Bluetooth® enabled devices.*

Marvel 2.0 offers new products to meet the expectations of even more hearing instrument users and enable hearing care professionals to offer even more Marvel solutions.  

Phonak Audéo™ M-RT is the only hearing instrument in the world that offers direct connectivity to iOS® and Android™ smartphones as well as a T-coil and battery technology in one device. The latest Marvel technology in a unique hearing aid.

Phonak Bolero™ Marvel is the world's first behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aid to stream audio directly from iOS® and Android™ devices. It also has a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery that is designed to last for at least six years and provides the wearer with a full day of hearing performance with a single charge - streaming included.  

Phonak Sky™ Marvel - the unique combination of proven Phonak technology offers children optimal speech development, understanding and handling. The Sky M range has been developed for children with mild to profound hearing loss and is available in a wide range of colors and sizes. Sky M features a customized automatic operating system designed specifically for children, better speech understanding in noisy environments and maximum access to all speech sounds. The powerful rechargeable battery lasts all day.

Unitron has expanded its family of hearing instruments on the Discover platform. The new products, Stride™ P R (BTE) and Moxi™ Jump R Receiver-In-Canal with telecoil are easy to use and very convenient. They enable true hands-free calling, video calling and media streaming in both ears with Apple™ and Android™ phones. Proven lithium-ion rechargeable battery technology provides peace of mind. A virtual coach uses the Remote Plus App to give the hearing aid wearer tips on how to care for and maintain the hearing aids, thus ensuring that they are quickly familiar with the new devices. In addition, the wearer can use the app to control important functions of his hearing aids.

In addition to an appealing design, Hansaton's EXCITE hearing aids impress above all with their brilliant sound from the first moment of wearing as well as their practical functions that make everyday life easier. It is very simple to use the hearing systems to make phone calls with your smartphone, listen to concerts or talk shows via radio apps or broadcast television programs. 

Thanks to Bluetooth®, these stylish helpers become wireless headphones that enable hands-free and secure use of many end devices such as telephones, tablets or computers**. Two new color combinations from the Exciting Design Edition are also available. These optimally support the individuality of modern hearing aid wearers and thus offer the perfect solution for all design lovers and fans of great functions.

Advanced Bionics (AB) builds on the unique collaboration with Phonak having introduced the Naida™ CI Connect receiver. Hands-free phone calls and direct audio streaming are a part of everyday modern life that cochlear implant wearers should benefit from too. Naída CI Connect, the most recent innovation Advanced Bionics developed together with leading provider of hearing instruments, Phonak, is an elegant, design-integrated solution which turns the Naída CI Q90 sound processor into a Bluetooth® wireless headset.

Additionally, AB received approval by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and German TÜV for their Active Insertion Monitoring (AIM™) System, an innovative solution for implant surgery and post-op, enabling the monitoring of the surgical procedure in real-time.
