Phonak
Swiss-engineered speech clarity
Swiss engineering built around speech intelligibility and automatic environment adaptation, with direct connectivity for both iPhone and Android users across a broad range of hearing configurations.
What Phonak is known for.
Phonak is a Swiss manufacturer focused on making speech easier to understand in everyday listening situations. Their hearing aids automatically detect the kind of environment you're in and adjust their settings on their own, so you spend less time manually managing them throughout the day.
They serve a wider range of hearing needs than most brands, from mild to profound hearing loss, and their wireless microphone accessories are well-regarded for situations where distance or noise makes listening especially difficult.

Pros
A second computer chip works solely on pulling speech out of background noise, making conversations in loud places noticeably clearer.
They detect where you are and what kind of listening situation you're in, switching settings on their own so you don't have to think about it.
Connects for calls, music, and media on both platforms, and pairs with remote microphones without any extra equipment needed.
Cons
The Audéo Infinio Ultra Sphere does not have an option for replaceable batteries, so it might not be a great option for those wanting the standard batteries.
