Oticon just announced two new upcoming (June 2017) form factors with telecoil support: miniRITE-T and BTE13 PP. Here's a breakdown of what to expect.
Both the miniRITE-T and BTE13 PP include "Tinnitus SoundSupport, Speech Rescue LX, DSL, and TwinLink™ with 2.4GHz wireless technology for direct streaming to iPhone® and audio devices," according to the release.
I agree with the other answers. The T-coil is coming soon. If you can wait, I would wait to have the T-coil version. If you can't wait ask your provider if they will exchange, at no cost to you, when the T-coil version is available. We were able to do that for a patient.
In the UK it is available to order from the end of May 2017 & will be shipped from early June 2017.
There is also a firmware upgrade in the UK giving "speech rescue" frequency lowering, a dedicated music program, a speech in noise program, a comfort program, an auditorium mic program, tinnitus support including red noise & DSL v 5 fitting formula.
