Key Features of Phonak Audéo I 90-R

Premium 90-Level Hearing Technology

The 90 technology level offers Phonak's premium set of sound-processing features. It is designed to provide support in demanding listening situations, particularly when background noise and multiple speakers make conversations difficult to follow.

SmartSpeech Technology

SmartSpeech Technology combines multiple hearing features to improve access to speech and support listening comfort. It helps the hearing aid adapt to different acoustic situations, including conversations in restaurants, meetings, and busy social environments.

Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery

The Audéo I 90-R features a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery, eliminating the need for regular disposable battery replacement. A compatible charger supports convenient daily charging. Actual battery life varies with streaming, settings, battery condition, and listening environment.

Universal Bluetooth Connectivity

Universal Bluetooth allows the hearing aids to connect with compatible smartphones and other Bluetooth-enabled devices. Users can stream supported audio and phone calls directly to their hearing aids, depending on device compatibility and configuration.

SpeechSensor Technology

SpeechSensor detects speech arriving from different directions and helps the hearing aid adapt its processing. This is designed to support awareness of conversations when someone speaks from the side or behind the listener.

StereoZoom 2.0

StereoZoom 2.0 is designed to focus more narrowly on a primary speaker in challenging noisy situations when compatible hearing aids are fitted in both ears. It can help users concentrate on a conversation when surrounding sounds compete for attention.

Speech Enhancer

Speech Enhancer is designed to improve the audibility of softer speech in suitable listening conditions. This feature can be helpful when listening to quieter voices, depending on the user's hearing profile and environment.

Tinnitus Balance Support

The Audéo I 90-R supports Phonak's Tinnitus Balance feature through compatible fitting software. It can provide sound enrichment or masking options for some people experiencing tinnitus, but it is not a cure for the condition.
