In 2021, the world continued to grapple with the COVID-19 pandemic, the United States saw a transition of power with Joe Biden’s inauguration, and we mourned the loss of beloved actor Ed Asner. Amidst these events, Oticon introduced a groundbreaking hearing aid that would change the landscape of audiology: the Oticon More.
Today, the Oticon More remains a popular choice among hearing aid users, offering advanced features that continue to impress. While newer models have since emerged, the More still holds its ground as a reliable and effective hearing solution.
What Was Special About the Oticon More?
The Oticon More made waves with its sleek, modern design and impressive capabilities. Its standout feature was the deep neural network (DNN) chip, trained on 12 million real-life sounds. This innovation allowed the device to process sound in a way that closely mimics the brain’s natural approach. While this was groundbreaking in 2021, today’s models offer even more sophisticated AI-driven sound processing, providing even clearer and more natural hearing experiences.
Another key feature of the Oticon More was its ability to support the brain’s natural processing of sound, reducing the mental effort required to understand speech in noisy environments. This was a game-changer for many users, allowing them to engage more easily in social situations. Current technologies have built upon this foundation, offering even more advanced noise reduction and speech enhancement capabilities.
The Oticon More also introduced the Polaris platform, enabling faster and more efficient sound processing. This resulted in a seamless listening experience for users. However, newer platforms now offer even speedier processing and more nuanced sound adjustments, further enhancing the listening experience.
Comfort and style were not overlooked in the Oticon More’s design. Available in various designs and colors, it offered a comfortable fit for all-day wear. The device also featured an intuitive interface with simple volume control and program buttons, making it user-friendly for individuals of all tech-savviness levels.
Are You an Oticon More Wearer?
If you’re currently using the Oticon More, you’re likely still benefiting from its advanced features. However, as hearing aid technology continues to evolve rapidly, it’s worth considering what new innovations might further enhance your hearing experience in the near future.
While the Oticon More is still a relatively recent model, it’s good to keep in mind that hearing aids typically have a lifespan of 4-7 years. As you approach the 2-3 year mark with your device, it might be worthwhile to schedule a check-up to ensure it’s still meeting your needs optimally.
