Orka Two vs. Phonak Audéo Infinio
Check out our comparison of the Orka Two vs Phonak Audéo Infinio. Listen to audio samples and see how the two hearing aids differ in terms of sound performance, features, accessories, and more.
Summary
Product Description
The Orka Two hearing aids offer sleek, modern design and advanced wireless features, including Bluetooth connectivity and hands-free calling for both iOS and Android devices. However, despite their AI-based noise reduction technology, they underperform in noisy environments and come with a relatively high price tag of $1,899, making them less ideal for those with severe hearing loss or those who require extensive in-person care.
Product Description
Phonak’s Infinio Sphere, launched in August 2024, introduces the AI-driven DEEPSONIC chip, designed to enhance speech clarity in noisy environments. My hands-on testing left me impressed with the Sphere's performance, especially in background noise.
