SUPERSEDEDÂ HEARING AID RANGE
Â
September 2015 Update: The Belong has now been superseded by more advanced Phonak hearing aids here
The Phonak Belong is designed with mild to severe hearing loss in mind and the Phonak Belong offers innovative technology for a better hearing experience. As the name suggests - it also gives you a sense of being at one with the environment and all hearing situations.Â
Together with the rechargeable Lithium-ion battery technology, direct connectivity feature and AutoSense OS - this Phonak platform automatically adapts to your lifestyle without the limitations that hearing loss brings.
Â
Directly connect your Phonak Belong hearing aids to your mobile phone to enjoy wireless streaming without any additional devices, with B-Direct. In addition to being the first 'made for any smartphone' hearing aid with Bluetooth, it now boasts the SWORD 2.4 GHz radio chip, which strengthens this technology. Furthermore, it also includes a Phonak's 'Plug & Play' TV Connector that turns your Belong aids into wireless TV headphones.
There is also a rechargeable option, with Phonak Audeo Belong B90-R. With 24 hours of hearing, from a single full charge, this aid was the first to include Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries. Providing 40% more power than past-generation hearing aid models and promises to last the entire day.
Due to the predicted 4-year shelf life, the batteries will not deteriorate over a long period of charging cycles. To put it simply - a 3-hour charge will give you 24 hours of wear. A 30-minute charge will give you 6 hours of wear.
With the Phonak Belong AutoSense OS program you will inherit 60% better speech understanding (compared to wearing no hearing aids). This is available in all the performance levels. They also have the ability to clearly zone into individual voices, within a noisy environment. There is a reduction in hearing sounds and voices within a car by 37%, which is rather significant when differentiating between past technologies.
In addition, you will benefit from a 10% improvement of hearing soft voices with this model. This program works by scanning the data of sounds every 0.4 seconds and then fuses the pre-programmed settings to create over 200 forms of how the aids can sound. This all depends on the environment you are surrounded by and will adjust automatically.
You know how challenging noisy situations can be every day, and this technology tackles this head-on, with Binaural VoiceStream technology. This innovative addition streams all incoming sounds, in real-time, to both of your hearing aids. This then mimics how your brain responds to sounds, from both ears, which finally links to give you the benefit of speech with quality and clarity. Also, available throughout the Phonak Belong range.
The introductory level, like the B30, does not boast the rechargeable capability option. It also has limited Noise Reduction, but still includes the AutoSense program. The B90, which is the higher specification, benefits from additional features. Here are a few examples:
