Watched Cliffs video, and clearly it a brave move by Phonak to release a compromised HA. Bulky with low battery life and the DeepSonic performing better in any situation according to Cliff, but it reduces the usable time to 8 hours.
I am leaning towards the Intents, which may not be as good in loud noise, but were really good across my 30 day trial, for 90% of the situations I wore them in. 20 hours battery life and more compact, if a bit wider than prior aids I have used, they seem more practical.
Unfortunately there was scant detail on the Spheres in normal ERA programmes which makes it difficult to decide…
Let see what reviews from real world users says…
