We pride ourselves on bringing our patients the most advanced hearing technology available. Phonak has long been at the forefront of hearing innovation, and with the launch of the Phonak Infinio Ultra hearing aids, they have once again redefined what’s possible in hearing performance and connectivity.
Only a year after the release of the impressive Phonak Infinio Sphere, Phonak has unveiled its successor, the Infinio Ultra – and it’s proving to be a significant leap forward in both AI-powered sound processing and Bluetooth performance.
What makes the Phonak Infinio Ultra so advanced?
The Infinio Ultra builds upon the success of the Infinio Sphere, using an enhanced version of Phonak’s DeepSonic processor. This is the AI “brain” of the hearing aid, which analyses and understands complex sound environments in real time.
Phonak has trained this deep neural network on 18 times more real-world sound samples (nearly 400 million recordings) resulting in a remarkable ability to separate speech from background noise, even in the most challenging listening environments.
The upgrade from AutoSense 6.0 to AutoSense 7.0 represents a major improvement in environmental recognition. With this new system, hearing aids can detect and adapt to subtle nuances in your surroundings, such as distinguishing between conversations in a noisy restaurant or a bustling street, with 24% greater accuracy.
In practical terms, that means clearer speech, smoother transitions, and less effort in everyday communication.
Who the Phonak Infinio Ultra ideal for?
The Phonak Infinio Ultra hearing aid range is ideal for individuals seeking exceptional hearing performance, particularly those who:
- Regularly experience noisy or dynamic environments such as restaurants, meetings, or social events
- Value reliable Phonak Bluetooth hearing aids connectivity for calls, media, and work
- Enjoy music or live performance and want accurate, natural sound reproduction
- Prefer a “set and forget” hearing experience with automatic sound adjustments
These hearing aids are designed for people who expect the best, from effortless communication to cutting-edge technology that works in harmony with daily life.
Smarter performance and longer battery life with the Infinio Ultra
Phonak has re-engineered their AI architecture, making the Infinio Ultra both smarter and more efficient. The redesigned processor delivers up to a 10.2 dB improvement in signal-to-noise ratio, enhancing speech clarity even further.
But the real breakthrough lies in energy efficiency. The new AI system consumes 30% less power, significantly extending battery life. Users can now enjoy up to 56 hours of regular daily use, even with frequent streaming and AI engagement.
This marks a welcome improvement over the previous model and puts Phonak’s performance on par with, and in many cases ahead of, other leading manufacturers.
Experience exceptional Bluetooth connectivity
Connectivity has become a cornerstone of modern hearing care, and Phonak Bluetooth hearing aids continue to lead the way. The Infinio Ultra supports universal Bluetooth pairing, allowing users to connect with up to eight devices simultaneously, with two active at any one time.
The updated pairing process is now seamless – a significant improvement for those familiar with the complexities of previous Phonak setups. Whether connecting to your smartphone, laptop, or television, the process is quicker and more intuitive than ever before.
However, one anticipated feature – Auracast – has yet to be activated, which Phonak users have eagerly awaited. Despite this, the current Bluetooth capabilities remain class-leading, providing reliable and high-quality connectivity across a wide range of devices.
The Phonak Infinio Ultra R: Compact and capable
Alongside the main Ultra model, Phonak has also introduced the Infinio Ultra R. While it’s a smaller and more discreet hearing aid option, it shares the same advanced processing platform and benefits from the same improvements in AI, sound quality, and efficiency.
