Phonak offers a wide range of hearing aids that cater to all types of hearing loss. Their advanced technology and various features help wearers navigate life despite their hearing impairments.
In this article, we will take a brief look into the Phonak digital hearing aid launches throughout 2024 and beyond. We will be updating this content as and when new products from Phonak are available in the UK market with a summary of their features versus benefits.
Phonak launched its new Infinio range in August 2024. This introduction features an array of hearing aids, all powered by innovative dual-chip technology. The Infinio range includes multiple models that address various hearing challenges and requirements.
Among these, the Audeo Sphere Infinio i90 stands out, tapping into real-time AI processing through its DEEPSONIC chip, which effectively differentiates speech from background noise, enhancing clarity and user comfort in loud settings.
This new collection highlights durability, improved Bluetooth connectivity, and longer battery life, offering significant advancements over previous models. Read our article that compares Lumity with Infinio here
Another remarkable product is the Phonak Audeo Infinio CROS, designed specifically for those with single-sided deafness (SSD) who might benefit from CROS or BiCROS configurations. This model features a variety of advanced technologies that work together to provide exceptional sound quality.

Phonak Slim hearing aids, launched in May 2023, were an aesthetically streamlined addition to the Lumity platform. The ergonomic shape (7° angle) of this model is contoured naturally to the curve of your head which leaves more room behind your ears - offering all-day comfort. Ideal for people who wear glasses, oxygen, or a mask - this hearing aid is designed to be seen!

Coming only a few months after their last major product launch (Audeo Life and Audeo Fit) and replacing some of those newly released products, this launch was rather unexpected.
These digital hearing aids are very similar in appearance to the previous range, the Phonak Paradise platform. Apart from a few minor features, they are close to identical. The chip and all of the hardware are the same as what is in Paradise.
In our opinion, these changes should have just been a free software update to the current Paradise models, rather than being introduced as a new model.
As well as featuring the Life model - the second generation of the world’s first waterproof rechargeable hearing solution - they also incorporate Health and data tracking capabilities. Phonak Life offers several features to help improve sound quality and clarity, such as directional microphones and noise reduction technology.
In addition, the Phonak Audeo Lumity hearing aids are designed to adapt to the wearer's listening environment and preferences, resulting in a personalised hearing experience.
The Phonak Audeo Lumity Life hearing aids are a completely new hearing aid, with a new outer case that has specifically designed microphone ports. The key highlight here though is that it is waterproof. Life hearing aids can be submerged in around 1.64 feet of either fresh, salt, or pool water.
Therefore, Audeo Life gives you the confidence that your hearing aid, no matter the conditions, will always provide optimum hearing performance and connectivity. You can also gain Health Data Tracking features.
This means you can access health performance indicators like counting your steps, showing you your activity levels, and gaining access to set your own health goals for better well-being and overall health.
Phonak Paradise hearing aids are now available in their popular Virto line of custom-made hearing aids, which includes their extra discreet Titanium model. In all honesty, Phonak was due a new ITE custom-made hearing aid style and we predict these additional styles will be accepted well by consumers.

Phonak launched the Paradise hearing aid range in 2020, but there have been some significant additions in 2021. In the summer of 2021, Phonak introduced the Paradise Naida to the collection, offering a superpower (P) and rechargeable ultrapower (UP) option to those with severe to profound hearing loss.
Then in winter 2021, the ActiveVent was launched - an advanced speaker technology that's compatible with rechargeable Paradise models.
In August 2020, Phonak launched their Paradise hearing aid range, making several beneficial improvements since the Marvel was released. The Phonak Paradise promises great sound quality, increased functionality, universal Bluetooth connectivity, and the ability to manage and personalise your hearing experiences even more.

Considering the Phonak Virto B, Phonak Black, or Phonak B-Titanium hearing aids? Here, at Hearing Aid UK, we pride ourselves on being completely transparent with our prices, and services and above all relaying the right information about all our models to our customers. For instance, when a hearing aid is superseded, we make sure this is clear to everyone.
It is an important part of what we do, and we want to help you make the right decision on what hearing device is the best for you and your hearing loss. If a hearing aid has been superseded it means that there is a more technologically advanced option that might provide you with a better hearing solution - depending on what your priorities are.
Well, in truth, we wanted to clarify this as you might have been offered a discount on the Phonak Virto-B, Virto Black, and Virto B-Titanium models – and this is about to be superseded by the new Virto Paradise we mentioned earlier. In short, the provider is trying to sell through their older models to make way for the new, more advanced version.
Unfortunately, this is quite common practice for some audiology retailers on the high street. This untrustworthy service is not fair to you, as a consumer. We do not advise investing in old technology. Always ask the audiologist if the model you are being shown is the latest on the market.
So, what does the new Naida bring to the table? In brief, when launched, it will be the first superpower hearing aid with universal Bluetooth capability - featuring Marvel 2.0 technology and Roger Direct connection. Offering power users multifunctional features, powerful sound, and direct connection to their favourite Bluetooth devices.
Like the Virto Black, you can gain from the flexibility of streaming into both hearing aids at the same time for a clearer sound that is 10 times more natural (using a Roger Pen). You can also use your Roger microphones to assist speech understanding in noise and over distance.
