Phonak’s Audeo Paradise has been replaced with the Audeo Lumity 90 in Phonak’s hearing aid lineup. Blog post updated on June 18th, 2024.
The Phonak Audeo Lumity 90
The Audeo Lumity 90 hearing aid is the current top of the line receiver in the canal offering from Phonak. Once again, Phonak is utilizing Bluetooth classic, making their hearing aids the only ones that are fully compatible with almost all Android cell phones. The Lumity hearing aids can be connected to up to 8 devices. They are available in both rechargeable and changeable batteries. They also have a waterproof model, the Life. These hearing aids are offered in 4 levels of technology from a basic entry level model to the top of the line that performs best in background noise.
The Lumity includes a completely new feature called SpeechSensor which is only available in the top tier Premium 90 level Lumity hearing aids. This feature allows you to understand speech better from beside you and from behind you. When you are in a background noise situation, SpeechSensor will scan your environment and focus on the loudest speech, no matter which direction it is coming from.
StereoZoom 2.0 helps to eliminate sounds from behind you by zooming in on the person in front of you. It adapts the strength of the focus as the noise level increases. You can make it even stronger in the app on your phone.
The Lumity 90 also has the most bands and channels, allowing for greater flexibility in programming the hearing aids to your specific hearing loss. They reduce listening effort in quiet and in noise.
When you choose the top-level hearing aid you are setting yourself up for greater success in communicating in noisy settings, and giving yourself the greatest flexibility in programming to continue to use those hearing aids for as long as possible as your hearing changes. Always choose the best level of technology that fits your budget!
