Oticon Hearing Aids: Models, Features, Prices, and Reviews

In 2024, Oticon continues to build on a history of innovation delivering cutting-edge hearing aid solutions.
Oticon HQ

Oticon's global headquarters, just outside of Copenhagen.

Oticon is the flagship brand of Demant A/S of Denmark, the world's second-largest hearing aid manufacturer. Founded in 1904 by Hans Demant, whose wife had hearing loss, Oticon has a long history of producing innovative hearing aid technology. For example, Oticon launched DigiFocus, the world's first fully digital behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aid in 1996, and in 2016, with the introduction of its first Made-for-iPhone Oticon Opn hearing aids, the company helped usher in wireless "internet-connected hearing aids" along with advances in sound processing for better hearing.

Oticon remains a leader in aid innovation. Released in 2024, Oticon Intent is a significant leap forward and picks up where its predecessors Oticon Real, More, and Opn S left off. Intent advances the company's BrainHearing™ philosophy with 4D Sensor technology and artificial intelligence in a 2nd-gen Deep Neural Network (DNN) model that runs onboard Oticon's new Sirius sound processing platform.

How Oticon's BrainHearing philosophy drives its technology

Oticon has done extensive research at its Centre for Applied Audiology Research and Eriksholm Research Centre in Denmark about how the brain processes sound. The company has introduced numerous proprietary sound processing algorithms designed to deliver BrainHearing™, an engineering philosophy introduced in 2014 that “supports your brain by giving it the conditions it needs to create meaning from sound—instead of overloading it by turning up the volume.”

With so much scientific research pointing out the links between cognition, dementia, and better hearing, this engineering strategy has proven to be a trendsetter for hearing aid manufacturers. One major goal of BrainHearing is to support the way the brain makes sense of sound, allowing you to listen with less effort. The idea is if you can conserve brainpower via easier listening and speech processing, you'll have more available resources for other cognitive activities—like formulating your own thoughts and word choices—while reducing mental fatigue.

In 2019, Oticon launched its Velox S technology platform, which used its OpenSound Optimizer™ to increase speech-in-noise capabilities and sound quality while significantly reducing feedback. This was followed in 2021 with Oticon More and the Polaris™ platform that provided access to a more natural sound experience by utilizing onboard Deep Neural Network (DNN) technology—a kind of artificial intelligence (AI) that Oticon has trained with a remarkable 12 million sound samples. Oticon Real followed in 2023 with several practical improvements, like recognizing and reducing annoying "side effect" sounds like a scarf/hat rubbing against the case of the hearing aid and wind noise.

Oticon Intent is the company's latest flagship hearing aid family introduced in February 2024. Powered by the all-new Sirius chip platform, it's said to be the first hearing aid designed to understand and enhance a person’s unique communication intention. Oticon Intent uses four different types of sensors to understand your listening situation and seamlessly support your listening needs, while giving access to the full sound environment. It also introduces the company's second-generation DNN system and uses Bluetooth LE and is Auracast-ready (more about this below).

“In terms of sound quality and hearing-in-noise capabilities, I believe the Opn and Opn S technology we introduced 4-7 years ago can still go head-to-head with the best hearing aids on the market today,” Oticon US President Gary Rosenblum told HearingTracker. “Every time Oticon launches a new product, we make sure that 8 out of 10 patients believe it’s a marked improvement over our existing technology. So, we’ve added significant benefits with each product launch and we continue to do so with Oticon Real.”

Oticon launched BrainHearing™ in 2014.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) trailblazer in hearing

In November 2020, Oticon changed hearing aid technology when it introduced Oticon More, the first hearing aid that used AI and DNN to improve speech understanding. Previously, hearing aid companies had launched machine learning and AI platforms to provide greater sound quality and listening comfort, but improving speech understanding using these futuristic technologies has been the holy grail for consumers and hearing aid manufacturers alike.

Oticon’s latest AI approach, dubbed RealSound technology, uses an onboard Deep Neural Network (DNN) to process sounds and “create contrast” between speech and other sounds while reducing annoying noises. Oticon claims their unique process makes focusing and following conversations easier, leading to improved speech understanding. This approach has been further enhanced with onboard sensor technology in Oticon Intent, which aims to actually understand what you most want to hear in a full 360° soundscape.

Other hearing aid manufacturers, including Starkey, Phonak, and Signia, are now employing artificial intelligence in hearing aids and their apps, and more will likely follow.

The Polaris and Sirius chip platforms

Oticon’s latest sound processing platforms are designed to deliver an improved version of BrainHearing™ with more powerful chipsets and sound processing algorithms. The Polaris semiconductor chip brought “16x more capacity to execute advanced algorithms,” “twice the computation capacity and speed,” and an onboard DNN processor, as well as a number of substantial improvements over Oticon's previous Velox S chip. Based on EEG brain measurements, Oticon has shown that Polaris delivered “30% more sound to the brain” and made “the full sound scene 60% clearer.”

Oticon built onto the Polaris chip and provided practical refinements in the Oticon Real hearing aid by introducing the Polaris R platform in February 2023. Implementing RealSound™ technology, Polaris R gives users a full spectrum of sounds in different environments by using DNN with over 12 million real-life sound scenes.

A major shift in Oticon's technology occurred in February 2024 with the brand-new Sirius™ chip platform, that enables the company to take BrainHearing, sensor technology, and artificial intelligence in hearing aids to a new level.

Oticon Intent

Designed to understand your communication needs

Oticon Intent is the company’s latest flagship hearing aid released in February 2024. Employing the company’s new Sirius chip platform, Intent uses 4D Sensor technology to understand each user’s listening intentions, moment by moment. This advancement, along with a second-generation Deep Neural Network (DNN 2.0) system and new features like the Smart Speaker, Bluetooth® LE, and Auracast™-ready technology, marks a significant leap forward in personalized hearing support.

Oticon Intent W Man And 360 Brainhearing

Building on a decade of BrainHearing technology, Oticon Intent features the world’s first user-intent sensors for capturing a person’s unique communication intention and then seamlessly providing the brain with the right hearing support in any situation.

Oticon Intent’s 4D Sensor Technology monitors acoustic environments, head and body movements, and conversation activity to adjust sound processing accordingly, ensuring seamless adaptation to user requirements. It reportedly enhances speech understanding by 15%, enabling users to focus their attention on desired sound sources effectively.

Further enhancing Intent's capabilities, MoreSound Intelligence 3.0 offers improved clarity and balance, with up to 12 dB noise suppression, resulting in 35% more access to speech cues compared to previous models. Additionally, a larger and more diverse set of sound samples makes up the second-generation Deep Neural Network (DNN 2.0), a form of artificial intelligence that mimics the brain's learning process and facilitates accurate representation of sounds in different situations.

Intent introduces a fully-redesigned exterior in a rechargeable miniRITE (receiver in the ear) hearing aid style. Even with its small size, it reportedly provides 20 hours of battery life even when streaming on a full 2-hour charge. Intent also features faster recharging with a quick 15-minute charge giving you 4 hours of use and a 30-minute charge giving you 8 hours.

Intent Charger

The Oticon Intent desktop charger uses inductive charging to provide faster charges than contactless inductive charging, providing 4 hours of use time with a 15-minute charge. Magnets are used to ensure tight contact.

Users of Intent can enjoy direct Bluetooth streaming and hands-free communication via iOS devices (iPhone 11 or later) and compatible Android™ phones and tablets (Android 10 or later), and Windows PCs. Featuring Bluetooth LE and “Auracast-ready” technology for future-proof connectivity, Intent should overcome the recent connectivity challenges experienced in some of the company's devices by using the new Oticon Companion app. (See the Oticon compatibility page for more details.)

Albeit with a slightly bulkier design and the removal of the rocker switch, Oticon Intent prioritizes comfort and simplicity with its single-button design and compact minRITE form. Intent comes in 9 color options and is available in 4 technology levels (levels 1 to 4, with 4 offering the most advanced features).

Oticon Real

Practical improvements for easier listening
Oticon Real W Hand

Oticon Real.

Oticon Real was launched in February 2023 and uses Polaris R chip set. Building on Oticon More's advanced AI and DNN features, Oticon Real identifies which sounds are important, like speech, without relying on traditional hearing aid algorithms for defining listening environments.

Additionally, Oticon Real includes new detectors for better sound processing when confronted with sudden noises, wind, or when you jostle the hearing aids—minimizing distracting sounds and increasing speech clarity. True to its BrainHearing engineering, these features are designed to significantly reduce listening effort, giving users confidence in their ability to engage and focus.

HearingTracker Audiologist Matthew Allsop provides you with an overview of Oticon Real hearing aids.

Real offers Bluetooth 5.0 streaming for Apple and Android devices, using the Made-for-iPhone (MFI) Bluetooth LE and ASHA streaming protocols, meaning you can stream audio directly into both your hearing aids. It also offers 2-way audio for hands-free calling with iPhones and Apple-compatible devices (v15.2 and higher). Android phone users can stream audio directly into both ears but will need to talk into the phone receiver (if the hands-free feature is important to you, see the Oticon Connect Clip accessory below).

All models have telecoils for streaming audio from the more widely installed loop systems, as well as landline telephones. However, because they do not use Bluetooth LE 5.2, they won't be forward-compatible with the upcoming Auracast streaming system; however, as noted above, Oticon Intent does have Auracast compatibility.

Like Oticon Intent, Real can be controlled using onboard push-buttons and the Oticon Companion app.

Oticon Real Lineup 2023

Oticon Real family of BTEs and RITEs with the Smartcharger and standard desktop charger in the background.

The Oticon Real line currently consists of four models—the MiniRITE R, MiniRITE T, MiniBTE R, and MiniBTE T—offered in the Receiver-in-the-Ear (RITE) and Behind-the-Ear (BTE) styles in 9 different colors. The R denotes rechargeable batteries while the T denotes the use of disposable size 312 batteries. Available In 3 technology levels, all Real hearing aids are IP68 rated for moisture and debris protection which is the highest level available for hearing aids.

Real's rechargeable models come with two options for recharging: the SmartCharger lets you recharge your hearing aids on-the-go with a built-in power bank, while the Desktop charger is a more standard plug-in charger. Both give you a full day of battery life (16-22 hours) on a full charge, and 6 hours of battery life with a quick 30-minute charge.

Oticon Zircon

Oticon Zircon product family and charger options.

Like More, Zircon is available in a rechargeable miniBTE or miniRITE, and a non-rechargeable miniBTE and miniRITE—with similar audio streaming, charging, and connectivity capabilities. On the hardware side, the primary difference seems to be color options—Zircon offers 5 color options versus More’s 8 options.

In terms of technology, Zircon lacks More’s “Neural Noise Suppression”, which Oticon claims improves speech clarity in background noise more than Zircon’s OpenSound Navigator (available only in Zircon 1). If OpenSound Navigator sounds familiar, it’s because you’ve probably heard it before—Oticon’s previous-generation Opn S relied on the same technology to handle difficult listening environments.

Oticon says its “open sound experience” is designed to put "speech understanding on par with normal hearing." Speech Rescue LX, which shifts frequencies to levels where the individual has less hearing loss, is available in every Oticon Opn and Opn S model. The OpenSound Optimizer provides optimal gain all day be analyzing various listening environments and automatically adjusting amplification levels. It also eliminates feedback by anticipating and preventing annoying whistling before it even happens.

Opn hearing aids can also stream music directly from iPhones or iPads, from Android smartphones, and from other Bluetooth-enabled devices via Oticon's ConnectClip accessory. And Opn S hearing aids come with a rechargeable MiniRITE R option.

Oticon Xceed

Super-power hearing aids

In 2019, Oticon introduced the Xceed family of hearing aids for people with severe-to-profound hearing loss. Oticon says Xceed is the world’s most powerful hearing aid, with 146 dB SPL and 87 dB full-on-gain. Powered by the Velox S platform, and featuring BrainHearing technology, it also provides the same extensive connectivity options provided by the Opn S family. Xceed is available in two styles (Super Power and Ultra) and seven different colors to match your skin tone or hair color.

Xceed hearing aids deliver many of the same high-performance benefits found in the Opn S hearing aids. OpenSound Navigator provides 360° access to speech. Oticon’s BrainHearing technology provides better speech clarity and less listening effort. OpenSound Optimizer handles whistling and static in a whole new way, preventing it from even happening.

A full range of connectivity options includes direct Made-for-iPhone wireless streaming as well as 2.4 GHz streaming from Oticon’s ConnectClip remote mic and TV Adapter. And the Oticon ON App provides smartphone control.

Finally, Xceed Play is a model that provides super power for pediatric patients with severe-to-profound hearing loss.

Opn Play and Xceed Play for children

Oticon's Opn Play hearing aids are the latest confirmation of the company's long-standing commitment to pediatric hearing care solutions. Four different styles can each be fitted for hearing losses in children ranging from mild to severe-to-profound.

Opn Play

Opn Play comes in a range of 12 colors along with decorative stickers that let children lend their own personalities to the hearing aids.

Opn Play hearing aids are also fully compatible with the Amigo FM classroom microphone and transmitter for children in schools, and with the ConnectClip microphone that makes communication with caregivers and teachers easier for children.

Available styles include one traditional behind-the-ear (BTE) Power Plus model (size 13 battery) and three receiver-in-the-ear (RITE) models: miniRITE T (size 312 battery); the miniRITE R (rechargeable lithium-ion battery), and the smaller Opn miniRITE (size 312 battery) with the latter being the only model not to include a telecoil.

They also come in a super-power version for children. Xceed Play hearing aids deliver Oticon’s latest sound processing and connectivity technology platform to children with severe-to-profound hearing loss.

Oticon CROS solutions

Oticon has integrated its top technologies into a CROS (contralateral routing of signal) solution for people with single-sided deafness. A transmitter on the deaf side sends sound to a hearing aid on the side with better hearing. That way, users get 360-degree sound and overcome the “head shadow” effect that blocks sound from the side of the head with the deaf ear.

Oticon CROS Hearing Aids

Oticon's CROS solutions send a wireless Near Field Magnetic Induction (NFMI) signal from a transmitter located on the poorer ear to a receiver on the better ear. And TwinLink technology integrates 2.4 GHz streamed audio from Bluetooth devices. (Source: Oticon)

Oticon’s CROS solutions also feature TwinLink technology, which connects the hearing aids to external audio sources via 2.4 GHz Bluetooth low energy, while simultaneously receiving sound transmission via Near-Field Magnetic Induction (NFMI) from the poorer to the better ear. This enables patients to watch television or listen to music while carrying on a conversation with someone positioned on their poorer ear side.

Oticon offers a CROS and rechargeable CROS PX. Both options can be used for CROS or BiCROS setups, where CROS is used when your better ear has normal hearing and BiCROS is used when your better ear needs amplification. Oticon’s CROS products are compatible with Real, More, Opn S, Opn Play, Xceed, Xceed Play, and Ruby, with the exception of Opn S 3 and Opn Play 2.

Oticon hearing aids with Tinnitus SoundSupport play a wide range of tinnitus relief sounds, such as white noise and soothing ocean waves to mask the ringing, humming and buzzing of tinnitus sounds in your head. You can discreetly control the sounds in your hearing aids using the Oticon ON App for iPhone and Android. Users can also wirelessly stream alternative tinnitus relief options from your phone.

Legacy hearing aid models

Oticon continues to support a broad range of legacy hearing-aid models based on previous generations of its sound-processing technology. Because these models still provide high-performance sound processing and functionality, some audiologist may still sell them at lower price points than the latest models.

Oticon Opn S

Oticon introduced its popular Opn hearing instruments in 2016. And in 2019, it followed up with a significant upgrade, Opn S. Oticon says their BrainHearing sound processing technology results in less listening effort, better speech understanding, and capacity to remember more of what one has heard.

Based on the upgraded Velox S sound processing platform, the hearing aids reduce the mental processing power required to understand speech in noise, giving the brain more capacity to process speech and to understand and remember what's being said.

I hope this is a generic question. I have a pair of oticon hearing aids. They are 4-5 years old. I have bluetooth with them.

About a week ago my left hearing aid started beeping 8 times then stopped and repeated itself 3 more times. It does it maybe twice a day. Do you have any idea what they are trying to tell me?

I had that happen to one of mine and I found somewhere that it means a microphone failure in that aid. I went to my provider telling them of that. They said they hadn't head of it but sent it out for repair. It was the cause and it was replced in the warranty period.

It is in service repair mode. Repairs must be performed on the device.

These hearing aids are not worth the high price. they do not work any better than lwer priced ones, besides that, the office charges $1200/yr after the initial three visits just to go in for adjustments or whatever.  If you don't want to go that route it is $250 per visit.  Be sure you check out everything before purchasing these.

What are the SAR values of Oticon Bluetooth hearing aids? Especially with and Oticon TV adapter.

What do you mean by "SAR values"

I have had three sets of Oticon hearing aids so that’s just over 10 years. Each time I get a new set like this set is Oticon On S3 they get better. This set I can now hear paper being shuffled around I can hear the wall clocks ticking and the leaves rustling in the wind. I like the fact I can turn them down. I like to listen now to the Radio on my iPhone via blue tooth. The rechargeable batteries last 18 hours but I like to give them a noon charge for 30 mins as often as I can so as not to deep cycle the batteries too much too often. I can hear the TV on low volume directly from the speakers. I can hear the aircraft radio by just putting my headset on over my hearing aids and the headset is electronic noise cancelling, life doesn’t get any better. These are well worth the money.

Very disappointed. They don’t stay connected. Not worth what I paid. They sent a second pair that isn’t any better than the first one.

I am having intermittent bluetooth connection issue too. I am on day 3 and a first time wearer. What model do you have? Mine are More 3 miniRITE R . I have my second appointment with my audiologist for adjustments on 4/18 and will take that up with them then. I telecommute and use my cell phone all the time for work and need a more reliable connection. It seems to be more of an issue with the right aid - but the left also cuts out at times too.

What us up with the connect clip? They never last. Sooner or later it starts to transmit 19 sec, then quit for abt. 2 sec, then transmit 10 sec, and so on. This has happened 5 different times. 3 were replaced under warranty, the others were out of warranty so i ate it. O love it when it works. Streaming is great, but what i really like is i can hear on the phone. Have tried all of the reset, revpair and everything anyone has sugested. It is the clip as same with mic, or stream. I can see it disconnect and reconnect in the app.
