Description
The Oticon Real 3 is the entry-level model of the product family. This is a rechargeable device that is worn with a speaker-in-the-ear and features advanced Oticon technology. The Oticon Real is the successor to the successful Oticon More. The Oticon More was our most popular hearing aid today and we expect the Oticon Real to surpass this. With the introduction of the Oticon Real, Oticon brings three novelties to the market; new technology, a new app and an exclusive colour;
The new technology in this hearing aid builds on the technology of the Oticon More. It is an improvement on that technology. Oticon has developed a stronger chip with more processing power, called Polaris R. Partly because of the greater processing power, Oticon has been able, to add two new technologies to the existing Deep Neural Network; under the name RealSound Technology, two new features called: SuddenSound Stabiliser and Wind & Handling Stabiliser. The SuddenSound technology recognises more than 500,000 sudden sounds per day. These sounds are not removed, but rather recognised and balanced so that they remain pleasant to hear. After all, as a hearing aid wearer, you often want to hear everything again. This technology reduces listening effort by 22% compared to the Oticon More. The Wind & Handling Stabiliser is an advanced (wind) noise stabiliser. It stabilises not only in the low tones (Oticon More), but also in the mid and high tones. This technology actually turns off the microphone automatically, upon detection of (wind) noise. The chip intelligently (automatically) controls which microphone and tones to turn off. This technique has been tested in one of the world's largest wind tunnels and the results show that during a very strong wind, the device suppresses noise so well that a conversation can still be followed as normal. Even the irritating sounds when putting the hearing aid on - especially for spectacle wearers - these noise sounds are suppressed to such an extent that they are almost inaudible. So it really contributes to very high wearing comfort.
This hearing aid is compatible with many all Apple and Android devices, for instant streaming and hands-free phone calls (Apple only). Always check the compatibility guide first to see if your device is suitable for streaming. There is also a new app that will replace the Oticon ON App and RemoteCare App; Oticon Companion. It has the same features but in one app. Don't forget to download it from the App Store!
Pros and cons
Hearing and understanding are close again, top!
After my simple instruments needed replacing, I tested the comparable Signia for a while. Here we could not filter out a feature that was very annoying to me (click/beep) and I got these Oticon instruments so I have a very good comparison. These two more expensive instruments were of course already an enrichment compared to the simpler version, but where the signia's took a lot of time to adjust (Lisette and me) where the last pain point remained present, the oticon's felt right away (same adjustment?). No more annoying click/beep, slightly clearer sound, program where ambient noise is filtered out works slightly better, so for what it's all about (better hearing) a winner!
Of course also something that could be better; the domes shape and sizes (signia is top, oticon normal) and the app's. Those of signia reasonable, oticon mediocre. Slow and they often do not see one of the two devices (while everything just works with the buttons on the device).
Also always take the TV streaming box with it, how nice! Signia (due to different shape domes?) super, oticon slightly echo feeling but after software adjustment not disturbing.
The travel charger, they should make it standard. Too big for your pocket, but so was the aerpods actually, but so nice to have with you when you have to take them out (temporarily) for noise at work or if you want to swim or something.
Another super feature; music listening/streaming to hearing aids, (of course) not comparable to earpods or such but the oticon approaches it nicely and I can now also continue to hear the birds (and traffic) when I cycle!
Yes it is still a lot of money two of those things in your ear, especially in comparison with the previously mentioned earpods (fairly similar hardware, less software?), but given the time and energy invested in them by oogvoororen (Lisette mainly) to adjust them almost perfectly I understand the price better.
