Oticon Real
Oticon’s newest innovative hearing technology, Oticon Real, was created to handle the “real” sounds of everyday life. The newest sound processing includes improved technologies that balance sudden disruptive sounds, noise handling (ex: hair or glasses touching hearing aids), and wind noise. The advanced technology of Oticon Real includes a Deep Neural Network (DNN), trained with 12 million real-life sound scenes. Overall this improved access to sound allows patients to have increased awareness, engagement, and focus in their daily lives.
Oticon Real is currently available in two styles: a mini receiver-in-the-ear (miniRITE) or a mini behind-the-ear (miniBTE). These devices are appropriate for fitting slight-to-profound hearing losses. They offer two battery options: size 312 or rechargeable.
Oticon Own
There’s no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to hearing aids. Oticon Own is crafted to meet your needs in a customized fit to your ear anatomy as well as your lifestyle needs. This product is designed to blend in, so you can stand out first.
Oticon Own is the world’s first in-the-ear (ITE) hearing aid with an onboard Deep Neural Network (DNN). This technology provides you access to more sound and reduces listening effort. This means that even when you’re in a challenging listening environment — like a restaurant, or a meeting at the office — Oticon Own will help you navigate what you need to hear, and reduce your listening effort, so it’s easier for your brain to take on other tasks.
Oticon Own devices are appropriate for fitting mild-to-severe hearing losses. The custom fit is created based on your ear anatomy and is available in a variety of size options. Depending on the desired hearing aid size, there are several disposable battery options including size: 13, 312, or 10.
Note: Completely-in-the-canal (CIC) and Invisible-in-the-canal (IIC) models do not offer Bluetooth connectivity due to hearing aid size and space limitations.
Oticon Zircon
The Oticon Zircon is an essential line of technology that builds on Oticon’s BrainHearing philosophy. Zircon balances sound from all directions to maintain clear speech, allowing you to comfortably focus on what you want to hear. The OpenSound Navigator helps reduce unwanted noise — by scanning your sound environment more than 500 times per second. This helps to identify unwanted noise and separate it from relevant speech. The end goal is providing a clear picture of the sound around you, without compromising access to speech.
Oticon Zircon is currently available in two styles: a mini receiver-in-the-ear (miniRITE) or a mini behind-the-ear (miniBTE). These devices are appropriate for fitting mild-to-profound hearing losses. They offer two battery options: size 312 or rechargeable.
Oticon CROS
Single-sided deafness can create several listening challenges including localizing sounds and listening to background noise. The Oticon CROS (contralateral routing of the signal) provides a solution for individuals who are looking for a more fully immersive listening experience. A CROS operates by wearing a transmitter on the unaidable ear, and sounds received from that transmitter are routed to a hearing device worn on the better-hearing ear.
The Oticon CROS is designed for individuals with single-sided deafness and can be fit as either a true CROS or BiCROS (hearing loss is also in the better hearing ear). There is a choice of a rechargeable Oticon CROS PX or a non-rechargeable Oticon CROS transmitter. Both of these devices are compatible with the following product families: Oticon Real™, More™, Zircon, Opn S™, Play PX, Opn Play™, Xceed, Xceed Play, and Ruby.
Oticon Play PX
Hearing loss impacts people of all ages. Oticon Play PX brings sound to life by providing children with access to the full sound scene. Play PX is the first pediatric hearing aid with an onboard Deep Neural network (DNN) that learns the same way children learn – through experience. This advanced technology provides them with optimal hearing for speech and language development in addition to enjoying the magic of childhood.
Oticon Play PX is currently available in two styles: a mini receiver-in-the-ear (miniRITE) or a mini behind-the-ear (miniBTE). These devices are appropriate for fitting slight-to-severe hearing losses. They offer two battery options: size 312 or rechargeable.
Oticon Xceed
Oticon Xceed was designed to give power to those who need it, without creating feedback (whistling) or compromised sound quality. The BrainHearing technology found in Xceed scans your surroundings 100 times per second. In research studies, they found that individuals wearing Xceed hearing aids noticed 10% improvements in speech clarity, 10% less listening effort/strain, and 15% improvements in short-term recall. All of these findings suggest patients have an improved ability to handle noisier environments and improve their listening fatigue.
Oticon Xceed is available in the behind-the-ear (BTE) style. These devices are appropriate for fitting severe-to-profound hearing losses. They offer two battery options: size 13 or 675.
Oticon Opn Play
Specially designed for kids with mild to severe hearing loss, Oticon Opn Play provides a whole new opportunity for children to hear sounds and improve their speech understanding in noise. This advanced hearing aid opens up a world of sound, allowing children to connect with their environment more naturally and comfortably.

With features like Bluetooth connectivity, tamper-resistant designs, and compatibility with various accessories, Opn Play ensures that children can experience the joy of sound in all aspects of their lives.
Oticon Xceed Play
Severe hearing loss impacts people of all ages, including children. Oticon Xceed Play is another pediatric hearing aid designed for severe-to-profound hearing losses. Children with significant hearing loss need more support to separate speech from noise in order to develop speech and language. Xceed Play utilizes BrainHearing™ technology, which gives the child access to clearer speech from all directions for listening and learning. This allows them to learn in a way that mimics the way the brain naturally makes sense of sound.
Oticon Xceed Play is available in the behind-the-ear (BTE) style. These devices are appropriate for fitting pediatric patients with severe-to-profound hearing losses. They offer two battery options: size 13 or 675. Both styles also include a fun collection of decorative stickers your child can use to decorate their hearing aids!
Enhance Children's Hearing in Every Environment with Oticon Accessories and App
Oticon offers several unique accessories to provide optimal hearing for children in challenging listening environments:
- EduMic — an easy-to-use classroom hearing solution providing clear and direct access to the teacher’s voice from a wireless remote microphone. This accessory helps children manage noise, reverberation, and distance in the classroom.
- Amigo FM — is designed to help students overcome the effects of distance and noise, so they can put less effort into hearing and concentrate on understanding what is being said.
- ConnectClip — is a multi-purpose accessory that can transform your child’s hearing aids into high-quality headphones and stream sounds to both ears. Even with the best hearing aids, it can sometimes be difficult to clearly hear what someone is saying (ex: on the playground or in the car). The ConnectClip provides a boost in these difficult listening situations by streaming another person’s speech—up to 65 feet away—directly to all Oticon Bluetooth-enabled hearing aids (including Oticon Play PX, Opn Play or Xceed Play).
The new Oticon Companion app and Oticon ON app offer a wide variety of features that make life simpler with caring for pediatric hearing aids. The app provides several convenient features like checking the hearing aid battery status, volume adjustments, program changes, and more. These apps also include a “find my hearing aid” feature if hearing aids are misplaced.
