Phonak Unveils Naida V Portfolio of Hearing Aids

Share:

Phoenix, Arizona, USA / Staefa, Switzerland – April 13, 2016 – Phonak, the global provider of hearing instruments and wireless communication solutions, today launched a new generation of Naída hearing aids for users with severe to profound hearing loss, aimed at improving every facet of life with unparalleled benefits on hearing performance, handling, size and design.

Naída V’s most distinctive benefit for users is SoundRecover2, the second and improved version of the Phonak frequency compression algorithm. For those affected most by hearing loss, high-frequency sounds pose a major hearing challenge. SoundRecover2 gives listeners with profound hearing loss access to more audibility of those sounds – such as birds singing or a child’s laughter.

Naída V: More audibility of high frequency sounds.

“Phonak has been passionate for decades about innovation, especially for those affected most by hearing loss,” said Martin Grieder, Group Vice President of Phonak. “I am convinced the smaller size, reliability and unmatched hearing performance of Naída V on the Venture platform will surpass user expectations, as well as those of hearing care professionals.”

Combining Naída V with the Phonak Roger portfolio packs an even more powerful punch: wearers are able to understand 62% more speech when using Roger in noise and over distance than people with no hearing loss.2

Another product advancement is Naída V’s convenience. It links up to Roger wireless technology without extra programming. Though more powerful, the device is one-quarter thinner in size from the previous version. Its housing is glass fiber reinforced, and water- and dust-resistant, giving users confidence they are wearing the best-designed hearing aid for their needs.

Phonak Naída V is available immediately in four performance levels and three models (RIC, SP and UP).
