At EUHA 2025, Phonak presented the latest advancements to its Infinio platform, including the Virto R Infinio custom rechargeable hearing aid and the new Infinio Sphere Ultra upgrade. In a discussion at the Phonak booth, Gareth Griffiths, Director of Campaign Management, outlined how these updates build on the company’s ongoing commitment to improving real-world hearing experiences. The newest version of AutoSense OS—version 7.0—was trained on 18 times more environmental data than before, allowing for more accurate sound classification and smoother transitions between listening environments. Griffiths explained that the upgrades deliver improved speech understanding in noise and a more natural listening experience for users in complex soundscapes.
Another key focus of the update is ease of use and reliability. Phonak introduced its new EasyGuard ear tip, designed to simplify wax management and provide greater durability, particularly for users with dexterity challenges. Enhancements in battery performance have extended listening time in Sphere mode, while Bluetooth connectivity has been refined for faster pairing and more efficient streaming across devices.
