Common questions

The newer technology used in Phonak Receiver In the Canal aids is called Vivante, which has replaced Paradise. Vivante is available in RIC and BTE styles and in four different technology levels: V90 (Premium), V70, (Advanced, V50 (standard) and V30 (essential).

In The Ear models still use the Paradise platform.

Firstly, they are very good hearing aids. They encompass all the newest Phonak hearing technology to improve speech perception. They are available in lots of different styles.

They will connect effortlessly with any modern phone that has Bluetooth which means you will hear your phone calls clearly in both ears. Also, if that phone is a smart phone, you also have a fantastic app that enables the user to have greater control of how they want their hearing aids to sound.

Everyone is different. The key factors though are lifestyle and budget. I generally recommend to choose the best aid that you can afford, that suits your lifestyle. The V30 is the most basic and is aimed for people who have a less varied lifestyle while as you step up in technology, you will find that the higher the spec, the better the performance will be in noise.
