I've been fitting the Phonak Infinio Sphere hearing aids for the past few months, and now it's time for a full review. This isn't just a manufacturer overview—I’ll be sharing real-world feedback from those that we've fitted in clinic, insights from audiology forums, and my own experience fitting these devices.
In this video, I cover:
How the Infino Sphere compares to previous Phonak models
Phonak’s real-time AI chip and deep neural network for speech clarity
Performance in background noise and challenging environments
Battery life and whether it lasts a full day
Bluetooth connectivity, hands-free calling, and Auracast support
Durability and waterproof testing
Phonak accessories like Roger microphones for better speech understanding
If you're considering new hearing aids, this review will help you decide if the Phonak Infino Sphere is the right choice or if another model might be a better fit. I also include independent testing results comparing it to other leading brands.
