Phonak's latest generation of hearing aids, the Audeo Infinio Ultra Sphere, is a game-changer for those seeking to improve their ability to hear in noisy environments. The ultra-sphere-shaped device boasts not one but two processing chips, including Phonak's DeepSonic DNN chip, which enables multidirectional speech processing in noise.
One of the standout features of these hearing aids is their Spheric Speech Clarity 2.0 system, designed to enhance conversation understanding even when voices come from multiple directions. The device itself is quite bulky, weighing in at 3.39 grams per earbud, but surprisingly, comfort was not an issue for this reviewer.
The Ultra Sphere offers a range of features that cater to individual needs, including tap control and Bluetooth streaming quality that's excellent for BTE hearing aids. However, connectivity dropouts were experienced during listening sessions with open eartips.
In terms of peripheral accessories, Phonak has released the Roger On 3, a portable microphone that can be used to amplify remote sounds or connect directly to hearing aids via Bluetooth. Although its high price tag may deter some consumers, this device offers unparalleled flexibility and amplification capabilities.
The estimated retail price for the Ultra Sphere is around $4,000 from licensed audiologists, which falls in line with earlier top-tier models from Phonak and competitors. For those with moderate hearing loss, over-the-counter options might be more affordable and sufficient; however, for individuals requiring more sophisticated support or significant tuning, the Ultra Sphere may be worth considering.
Overall, these innovative hearing aids demonstrate significant advancements in noise reduction and sound amplification technology, offering users improved speech clarity and comfort in various environments.

Just got my hands on the new Audeo Infinio Ultra Sphere hearing aids 
and I'm totally stoked 
! They're like having a superpower in your ear 
. The Spheric Speech Clarity 2.0 system is pure magic 
- I can hear conversations from anywhere, even when people are talking to each other from different angles 
. 
(I mean, it's kinda big and bulky 
), but trust me, comfort is where it's at 
. And the features? Whoa! Tap control, Bluetooth streaming... I'm all about that tech life 
!
(not a major bummer for me tho 
). But overall, these hearing aids are a GAME CHANGER 
. If you're struggling to hear in noisy spaces, get ready to rock the quiet life 
! 
2 processing chips = game changer! 
but £4k is a pretty penny lol 
think it's worth it if you need serious support tho
and the deep sonic chip is like woah 
I'm all about that comfort life 
It might be pricey 
but like, totally worth it 
The only thing that's kinda meh is the connectivity issues with open eartips 
with these ultra sphere hearing aids and I'm low-key obsessed 
And the Spheric Speech Clarity 2.0 system is like, totally life-changin' for those with noise-induced hearing loss! 
. Like, shouldn't they just make 'em work flawlessly? 
Anyway, the Roger On 3 portable microphone is another genius move by Phonak - it's like, a game-changer for anyone who wants to amplify sounds on-the-go 
their cold brew is insane! anyway, have you tried that new cold brew place near you? I was talking to my friend who's an audiologist about these new hearing aids and they said they've been getting a lot of requests for this new Ultra Sphere model. but, like, have you ever noticed how some places play the music way too loud? it's like, can't they just find a nice middle ground?
I'm loving the new ultra-sphere-shaped hearing aids from Phonak! 
), but comfort-wise, I'd rather have clarity over convenience 
. The tap control and Bluetooth streaming quality are top-notch 
.
! Sure, the price tag might be steep, but for those who need serious audio support, it might be worth the investment 
.
I think $4k might be steep for a lot of people but you get what you pay for - this thing sounds like it's gonna change the game for those with moderate to severe hearing loss. The fact that they've got two processing chips is insane, and I love that they included features like tap control and Bluetooth streaming quality. Of course, connectivity issues are always a bummer, but I guess that's just part of the tech learning curve. For me, it'd be worth every penny to have conversations with family members or friends who live far away without having to ask them to repeat themselves 5 times over 
. And that portable microphone, Roger On 3? Game-changer for anyone who needs to amplify sounds from afar 
Only a concern for me is that high-end price tag - hope more affordable options pop up soon 
), but if you're someone with severe hearing loss, it's worth considering. The fact that it has tap control and decent Bluetooth streaming is a major bonus too 
. I mean, I get that these hearing aids are top-of-the-line and all, but over-the-counter options are usually more affordable for people who just need some basic support. Still, I'm curious to see how these will help people with moderate hearing loss - maybe it's worth the splurge for them? 
especially when you consider the price tag of other tech stuff we get nowadays. still, if it can really help people hear better and live more comfortably... it's definitely worth considering, right? 
. I mean, who wouldn't want to hear conversation clearly even when others are talking at different angles? It's like having your own personal superpower!
