Introducing the Oticon Verit™
On July 22, 2023, Oticon, a flagship brand of Demant with over 120 years of history, presents the Oticon Verit™—a premium air battery hearing aid. This innovative product is now available at selected stores across Japan, including specialty hearing aid shops, eyewear stores, and department stores.
Unrivaled Features
The Oticon Verit™ is equipped with the same Sirius chip found in Oticon's flagship models, providing users with unparalleled audio quality. It offers advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) sound processing and next-generation connectivity through Bluetooth® LE Audio. This makes it a perfect choice for those who favor air batteries, even in environments where rechargeable models are becoming increasingly popular.
The device is available in two styles: Mini RITE T and Mini BTE T 105, catering to a diverse range of user preferences and hearing needs.
Background of Development
Recently, the hearing aid market has moved predominantly towards rechargeable models. However, there remains a significant demand for air battery hearing aids due to the assurance of battery replacement in emergencies or during extended outings and travel. Users seeking the latest technology in air-powered devices may have previously felt limited due to power constraints, thus prompting the development of the Verit™.
