Oticon’s latest hearing aid range has been received exceptionally well by both users and the professionals who fit them. People are really speaking highly of the devices and it really seems that Oticon is onto a winner. Let’s take a look at what models are currently available in the range and what is the technology inside.
Oticon introduced what they called a new ground breaking hearing device range. The devices were ground breaking for several reasons, not the least being they were internet enabled and they were Made For iPhone. The internet-enabled Oticon Opn comes with a number of additional features because it can connect to devices via the internet and Bluetooth. The hearing aids will connect directly to your Smartphone so you can make phone calls and listen to music without any intermediate streaming device.
The devices can be connected to any device that has a Bluetooth connection. This means that the hearing aids can also be connected to things like doorbells, appliances, or even baby monitors. Then when the doorbell rings, for example, the person gets a small ‘ring’ in their ear to let them know. This is pretty cool stuff, but for many people, it is just a nice have, not necessary a need. But like I said, they were probably the least of the groundbreaking features.
The Opn S 2 is the second top level technology in the Opn range. All three levels of the Oticon Opn™ family provide the open sound experience that is proving so popular. However, each model gives the brain a different level of assistance – a different level of BrainHearing™ support. This level delivers the best of everything they have to offer.
Less stress. Remember more. Better hearing. Oticon Opn™ S expands upon Oticon’s groundbreaking technology that is fast enough to support the brain. With precision and accuracy, it analyzes the acoustic environment and differentiates between the individual sounds. The result is a significant improvement in the ability to understand speech in complex environments while, at the same time, preserving mental energy – ultimately empowering users to Open Up to the World. Users are provided with more accurate information making it easier to locate and separate sound sources so they can focus on what they find important. This happens so quickly it facilitates the listener’s ability to change focus when desired.
This is the premium hearing aid in Oticon’s range which uses their Velox Sense processing chip. The original Opn range represented a completely new way of processing sound and was suitable for more demanding listening environments. Oticon has refined the processing even further, building upon the foundations to improve the sound quality and speech clarity delivered.g aids can make better analysis and processing decisions instantaneously. That should mean a better experience no matter what sound environment you find yourself in.

You can see below that the Oticon Opn S 2 Mini RITE comes with four possible receivers which allow it to cover hearing losses from mild to severe to profound.
The Oticon ON app lets you adjust volume, switch programs and check the battery level. The app also offers convenient ‘find my hearing aid’ search feature, counselling advice and links to user instructions. The app is also where the connection to the IFTTT network happens.
If you want your lights to turn on automatically when you switch your hearing aids on or want to be notified by your hearing aids that someone is at your door then these are a few of the limitless possibilities available using ifttt. Oticon has introduced their own recipes that can be easily downloaded, however, it is easy to make new recipes for action.
The Oticon Opn seems to have really caught the imagination of both professionals and users alike. It is a particularly popular aid and the feedback from users is excellent. It seems that the Opn may be a real winner for Oticon.
