![Oticon Own [THE BEST IN THE EAR MODEL OF 23?]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/2DzUYFgSPNs/mqdefault.jpg)
I’m satisfied with the Oticon More 1, rechargeable. When I have an appointment at the VA, I stop at the audiologist and he checks that they are working correctly, cleans and changes the cone. The VA audiologist gave them to me a year ago and they are a game changer for me. He also calls me up and checks the settings remotely.
That's Awesome! The More One is great!
Man ya gotta love that remote connection makes life sooooooo much easier for both the client and audiologist beats having to go to the office am I right?😁
Thank you so much for this - and all- your reviews. I am an Oticon Opn ITC wearer (cannot physically tolerate anything worn behind the ear for anything but a very short period) which are reaching the end of their life. Have trialled briefly other brands and Oticon More. Love the Oticon sound profile of More, so have been holding out for the release of these. Delighted they can cope with 100db, rather than 90db. Ultimately would prioritise quality of listening experience over connectability. Are the standard size and profile of the Bluetooth More ITC similar to the Opn ITC?
Hi Doc, love the help you give us. Is the mic better on the More Rite vs the IIC or CIC? If both use the DNN seems that this would be an important decision criteria.
Hi Dr. Cliff, thanks for the videos they're really helpful.After 3 years of using the Oticon opn 1 CIC, I'm buying new hearing aids. I'm undecided between the Oticon OWN 1 ITC and the Oticon More 1. How big is the technology difference between the MORE 1 and the OWN 1 ITC?
Really struggling to decide since i'm used to CIC and love the fact that they are discreet, but I heard good things about the MORE and known that they ensure to keep helping if my hearing gets bit worse.
Thanks again, you're helping so many people with your videos!
really well done review. thank you.
Thank you for the great video !!
I have a question, CIC model has 1 mic but ITC has 2 mics, there're make significant in performance?
Very informative as always. Thanks!
I got a Phonak Paradise Life 90. I love it. But man these others look exciting.
What excites me the most is there's REAL COMPETITION NOW. This is good for all consumers! this means in 4-5 years these are going to become base, and the next level will be even better and better and better.
Yep, each company seems to one-up each other and the consumers are the ones who win!
Eagerly awaiting your evaluation of Oticon Real!!
Will you be reviewing Phonak's new Lumity hearing aids. Having single sided hearing I'm considering Phonak for their Cros and would like to know if the Lumity would be a good choice.
Hello doctor.. Are there any hearing aids specially made for "auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder" hearing loss?
Is there a half shell hearing aid or any really that also acts as hearing protection?
Thanks Dr Cliff, so the iic version doesn’t have telecoil? So I can't use the app to adjust volume through the app? Thanks in advance
Are these hearing aids good for low frequency loss or can you recommend one that is. Thank you.
I have oticon behind the ear. Are these available for severe hearing loss
Can you adjust volume on your phn using the app for the iic
I’ve been fitted with Oticon Engage (BTE) this week under our NHS health system in the UK (mild to moderate loss) and they’re pretty good. I can hand these back at any time; these are basically a free loan unit.
I wanted to try these before spending on the more discrete IIC units privately and was looking at the Phonak Virto P90. I just wondered how you rate these Oticon IIC compared to the Phonak? Any feedback appreciated.
P.S. I enjoy your videos but the intro music is getting a bit dated. 🙂
Both are very quality products. Sorry about the intro. Let me know what unlicensed music you would like me to change to and I'll change the intro.
I sing in a barbershop quartet, an have Audeo over the ear rechargeable hearing aids. I can’t “hear when I’m in tune. What hearing aid would be best to hear that level of tuning?
Hi
Enjoyed the review,thanks.
I recently trialled the Oticon own ITC and found it very good in most aspects,However, when taking a call on bluetooth (IPhone 14) if I placed my phone in back pocket I could not hear the caller until I removed it and held the phone in front of me? I can stream audio no problem with phone in back pocket, your comments would be appreciated as I do like the aids. I was considering the Starkey evolv AI however your comment on "patchy" bluetooth scared me away lol.
🤣 yeah I can imagine turned me off as well though I did look at other reviews
Great video
how is right disconnected hearing aid become connected?
What is preventing Oticon from providing the Apple only features to Android? Are they trying to drive me to Phonak from my Oticon More 1's I have now?
Hey Cliff - Do you know whether the Own is using the same feedback reduction approach as the More (as this would be an improvement on the OPN)?
Yes it does!
Dr. Cliff, thanks for the videos. How do vents on the Oticon OWN ITC compare to the vents on Phonak Virto Paradise,?I know you like the Phonic system, but Oticon must have an acceptable alternative.
Oticon can optimize the venting for you as well.
Maybe I missed it. You said it's 30% better than opn s1 in background. An 25% than previous generation for noise reduction. Do you mean for the opn s1 or more? It's really good Oticon or an other brands are improving hearing aids so quickly. I personally have opn s1 and a android user. Other than the addition of iphone and Android compatibility on which ever brand people may choose. They all seem to say various increase percentage in background noise. Just a observation on my part that I find somewhat annoying. I'm sure there is good improvement. But even my opn s1 are supposed to be 15% better than previous model. I really enjoy your videos. Very informative. Maybe in a year or so I'll get a new set of aids. Please keep up the great detailed videos. Sorry for the bit of complaining.
The Own are virtually the custom version of the More. They are better than the OPN devices and the only way you can say that a hearing aid is better is to compare it to something else.
Are these more invisible than the Phonak Lyric 4 and are they better quality?
Can they be worn 24/7 to provide continous auditory stimulation?
Is the removal thread noticeable?
Nope to both so lyric goes super duper deep inside your ear however these types of hearing aids aren't designed to be worn 24/7 also no the removal string isn't usually seen easily
Hi. Recently heard a soldier got injuries to his brain. Caused by high sounds apparently. Can you explain if that is a diagnosis? Just stumbled on your channel. Tx, Norway 😊
Like tinnitus?
wow I've never heard of 2 different hearing aid styles not having almost no wireless connectivity even though the 2nd one has some room for it
Question... First, thanks, Dr. Cliff; your videos are great! Now: my audiologist thinks I wouldn't like the Oticon Own ITC because it would make my voice sound muffled *to me*. He had me put my fingers in my ears to simulate what it would feel and hear like. I absolutely hate my behind-the-ear aids, so I really want an ITC. What do you think? Have you heard of this self-perceived muffled voice problem, and how bad would it be? Thanks! - Sean P.S. I just need another opinion; I won't rat you out to my audiologist :-)
Hello doktor Cliff, these new devices will lock and take out the environment noise. So basically you will hear your own voice talking all the time in your head since these are all in the ear. Also the ventilation is not good as I suppose? Thanks, Erwin
You have to get a vent that is large enough that prevents occlusion.
Right that's where phonak comes in right?
Hello... i am suffering from tinitus for about 10 years now. I am interested to buy your product (hearing aid) but i don't know which fits to me. I am 66 years old. I have consulted an EENT, he prescribe Vitamins and said I'll be using hearing aid when i'll be back. Now, please let me know the cost of your hearing aid coz i'm interested to buy a pair. Thank you so much for the concern.
just ordered 2 oticon 4 cic's
Just found out I need hearing aids and the behind the ear model is what the doctor give me to test. Not happy with it and where glasses this looks like it’s what I need. I also need Bluetooth.
Thank you so much!🙏🏽👏🏽
You're welcome!
How much are the batteries
Sorry i forgot to inform you from where i am. I'm from the Philippines and i am Eduardo Caperig. The fone i am using is registered in the name of my wife Fe, but the sim card is mine. Again thank you so much for the reply.
Dr cliff is the DNN and AI are the same tecnology?
DNN is a form of AI
Interesting for me as an Oticon 1 owner. The IIC is cool. But if I understand it correctly not BT capable.
Correct, no Bluetooth in IIC
@Carl Chomko if you search for their Oticon Own order form online you will see which features you can get for which model. That doesn’t really surprise me, I think they leave it up to the audiologist to go over that with you. I see your point though, perhaps having a reference chart on the website would be helpful
Your disclaimer says it all. No fixed price. Pretty much whatever they want to charge today. That's why the insurance companies shy away. Along with consumers that don't desperately need aids. Hence the low percentage of uptake.
I see where you are coming from, but all of these are common misconceptions about insurance and hearing aid adoption.
@@DrCliffAuD O.K. read this as feedback from a 67 yo potential customer who is marketed to by many providers and has medicare advantage semi coverage. Being still reasonably lucid and discerning, my B.S. detector rings louder than tinnitus and I'm more comfortable with my hearing the way it is. Misconceptions or not, it's like the hourly offers for car warranties or the storm window pushers.
By the way, this is not critical of you or your practice if you are forthright and honest. There is absolutely no way to know. Just the view from the other side. I'm tempted to do the advantage thing, at least BCBS rates them somehow.
@@curtwuollet2912 totally understand. Like I said, I see where you are coming from. Being an advocate for consumer education and an Audiologist, I get to see all angles of perception. I wouldn't have a channel if I didn't agree with your overall sentiment.
Hi, I read somewhere that Bluetooth Auracast is like 'a telecoil on steroids'- do the Oticon Own Bluetooth models support Bluetooth Auracast?
Unfortunately no, it does not.
No hearing aid currently does. But they will soon
Are they smaller and go deeper than the virto titanium? In other words, which are more invisible?
Hi Dr Cliff I have the virto titanium and the grey color is visible. From your video it appears the oticon may be more invisible, is this correct?
Hi Dr Cliff, would this be the case? I am interested in changing my virto titanium because at the end the grey ends being visible, but this oticon in the video appear to be smaller and to be fit deeper inside. Is that the case?
@@diegoalexandre-garcia7561let me know if you find out as I’m also curious about this, the Oticon one seems to sit a lot deeper?
Do in the ear hearing aids vs the half full shell. Make a difference?
Yes, style always makes a difference in performance. Just depends on the hearing loss, wants and needs.
@@DrCliffAuD I have severe SSHL. Audio said best with cros, but I have bad tinnitus as well so they said hearing aids would be best for that. I rather have something for the tinnitus and not having to wear some thing on both ears too. Right now I’m trying out phonak in the ear hearing aid. They are alright, I get feedback issues. But wondering if the Signia, starkey or oticon half/full shell premium would be better, and which is best of those three. Money is no issues got great insurance.
I have SSHL in my right ear. My left is normal hearing.
Which oticon model best for severe loss..??
Possibly the More with a Power-Ultra Power receiver
Xceed sp or up
@@hannehaland7545ok price..??
@@vinaykrishna3388 so im an audiologist from norway. We only use top tire model. And they are free. Every 6 years you get a new pair. But if you want to buy it from oticon its 7500kr so 750 dollars?
@@hannehaland7545 iam vinay from india which brand hearing aid best for severe to profound loss..??
is Oticon Own IIC launched in India?
Is it locked?
No
Can babies wear these devices please tell me
probably not, kids yes but babies nope actually hearing aids in general are not entirely made for babies they probably have a few out there for babies but I'm not sure which ones
Custom hearing aids are not the best option for children because their ear canals are no fully developed. The Oticon miniBTE could be a better solution.
Technically yes, but you should consult with a pediatric audiologist and consider a pediatric hearing aid instead.
the best would be phonak llC b titanium for 13 bareries instead of 10 batteries
I would sacrifice all the gadget tech for devices that didnt make everyone sound like chipmunks (although I do love the chipmunks hehehe)...
Are there any ???
🤣 probably not but possibly yeah
That's a programming issue.
Hiya! I work with oticon, and its great to see an honest and educated review from a professional :) I would love to hear what other audiologists and users have to say! do you like/dislike it? Has it changed your day to day experiences? Would you recommend it to a friend or family member? These opinions really do matter! Please share!
Hi Daniel, I have CIc oticon Alta and I decided to change them for the new OWN version. I’m very exited about it and will let you know my experience 😊
@@Esole12 How was it, Esole?
Any news About fx-345
Nothing yet. Keep checking clinicaltrials.gov
@@DrCliffAuD when will it available for market s ???
@@cheekycheeky7506 not until after they prove that it can actually work in phase 2 clinical trials. If it does work, you're looking at several years.
@@DrCliffAuD another one question it will available for Indian markets???
@@cheekycheeky7506 sorry I don't know about other markets. It's hard enough keeping up with the US market.
How much oticon own ?
Depends on where you live, the technology level, the services included, and the quality of those services.
I have Oticon Opn IIC. As far as I can tell, there is are zero feature improvements between the Opn IIC and the Own IIC, except that Oticon’s marketing department updated some language and peppered “neural” in their marketing material to bring it in line with the Mores. Unfortunately, the Opn IIC has been very problematic for me and, after having to send in both hearing aids multiple times to get fixed, caused me to lose faith that Oticon has made any effort to produce a reliable IIC.
I think you work for another hearing aid manufacturer. You comment the same thing on all the videos about this product, why do you spend so much time caring? There are many satisfied with Oticon Opn. Seriously who would launch after 6 years the same product with a different name if it's the same thing, people will know soon and it's not good for Oticon, they will make big losses if it's true.
😶
Doctor Cliff,
Your video should go into subjective impressions of intelligibility improvements over past models, or better yet, over Starkey evolv models which attempt to achieve the same results.
Also, please lose the intro that is quite annoying after you hear it a dozen or more times. By now your subscribers know all about Best Hearing Practices, etc.
Appreciate the feedback Richard. I'll take the subjective evaluation recommendation into account. I apologize that I can't eliminate the intro as this video may be seen by a first time viewer and they need to hear it.
Hello sir??
I can hear the sound but don't understand what people speak, can I have Audiatory processing disorder????
you did not answer "As Good as the Oticon MORE?"
Basically the same as the Oticon More, just the custom version.
@@DrCliffAuD Thanks I guess the More is as good as it gets for now
Wish you didn’t talk so fast, for those of us who are hard of gearing need slower speech.
Hello doctor it's Paul Miles once again. I would really like to send you an email. About something that happened to me. And about how it should not happen to me because of you. Your video above was absolutely perfect. After that everybody else was absolutely wrong and have ruined my life. I like you to read my email, I'm sure if you believe that I am 100% correct and these things happen to me 100% the way they did. It would probably even anger you. I would love to send it to you I believe you would be maybe so disappointed to what happened you would probably post another video. About sudden sensitarial hearing loss. I sure hope you provide a way for me to send this to you it's way too long to send it to messaging.
if you don't mind my asking what did happen to you?
@@meric12131415 I had sudden sensitorial hearing loss in May 7th and your video absolutely help me a whole lot! After that it was nothing but downhill and I have over a 15,000 character email I would love to send you. I am the type of person that I don't exaggerate or make things up I would love for you to read it
@@meric12131415 sorry my face is totally numb and my message was just wrong I meant I received nothing but fantastic information from you on May 7th. About sudden sensitorial hearing loss. After that it was nothing but downhill. I have an email that I am sure you will want to read. I don't make things up and I never exaggerate
@@mmarpfm1 ah that's what you meant I thought the comment sounded odd the first time I saw it 🤣
@@meric12131415 Dr Olson, if you don't want to give me an email address I can understand why. Last night I broke the email up until maybe eight different sizes and I posted on the comments. Of your sudden sensitarial hearing loss video 2 years ago. I would really like you to read it. This has been a very bad situation. I was hoping maybe you could redo a video talking about this. Hopefully this will never happen to anybody else. Please let me know
Hey that is not true I get great service from the VA.
