Is Costco Brio 5 similar to Naida Paradise?

@Zebras He is talking about Phonak :jp:

I am trying to look for a Phonak distributor who sells “Roger On iN” and will try to convince the shop if I can actually test the compatibility of the Brio 5 by visiting their shop. So far I am not lucky with finding one as they always consult first with Phonak Japan before accommodating any actual request. I hope some folks with Brio 5 in another country can confirm its compatibility with Roger Direct.

Yes I know but they know a Phonak Brio is a Costco hearing aid.

@nc2kids Why not try this:
Get something like this (as an example, not limited to):

Option A:

Option B:

In case of Option B, you will need a tool to transfer the licenses to the Brio 5

Bearing in mind that those prices a quiet high, so you might need to keep an :eye: or :eyes:

Probably simpler and cheaper for @nc2kids to buy a Noahlink Wireless and get the Target software to confirm for him/herself.

RogerDirect+Mic program won’t be there if in fact the Phonak Brio 5 in Japan don’t work with Roger iN.

Or go for an adjustment and look intentionally at the screen for the program.

I am also into DIY fitting and I can see the RogerDirect + Mic. However, when I look at the features tab in the Phonak Target, the Roger Direct is not listed for Brio 5 while for Naida Paradise P90-UP it is listed

@nc2kids Do you have a comparison of the KS10 vs Audeo paradise?
Thank You

here is link to the Brio user guide:

Sorry I do not have KS10

Phonak Japan just confirmed that Roger On is not compatible with Brio 5. I don’t know how Phonak disabled the Roger Direct functionality. However. I am still not giving up and will continue to look for a shop the has demo units of Roger On or Roger On iN so I can actually test and confirm if it’s compatible or not with Brio 5.

They don’t mention the Roger On iN tho.

Did you ask why the program is there?

I assumed that if Roger On will not work even if with an external Roger receiver then it would not work with Roger On iN which is a software installed receiver. I will just try to look for a shop with Roger On iN demo units and try to actually pair it with Brio 5.
