Virto R Infinio: A custom solution athletes and audiologists are talking about
Building on the proven Infinio platform, Virto R Infinio offers exceptional sound, connectivity, and precise customization in a discreet, rechargeable device tailored to each client’s ear. Discover how this innovation expands your options for personalized care.
“I feel so much better in my skin.”
These were the words from professional freeskier and Phonak ambassador, Robin Gillon, after being fit with his Virto R Infinio devices.
While the proven sound quality and enhanced speech understanding in Phonak hearing aids were important to him, what truly made a difference was feeling at ease, self-assured, and authentically himself in every setting. It’s a reminder that personalization, comfort, and confidence are equally critical to exceptional sound quality.
That is why the new Virto R Infinio is worth talking about: it delivers these qualities alongside best-in-class technology.
Why this matters in practice
The Infinio platform has already set a high standard for sound quality, reliable connectivity, and advanced signal processing. With Virto R Infinio, those same strengths are now available in a form factor precisely shaped to each client’s ear anatomy.
From a clinical perspective, here’s what stands out:
- Compact without compromise
Among the smallest rechargeable custom ITEs available, yet maintaining the sound quality and processing power clinicians expect from Infinio. Thanks to RightFitTM customization, it can be crafted 15% smaller than without this process.1
- Improved speech understanding in noise
StereoZoom 2.0 orchestrated by AutoSense OS 7.0, delivers around 16% better speech understanding in noise, with speech from the front, compared to previous technology platforms and directional microphone modes.2
- Rechargeable convenience, now in custom ITE
The first fully rechargeable custom ITE with Infinio technology. The snap-and-charge charging system, integrated with the Charger Virto I, makes daily use simple — even for clients who find small controls difficult to manage
- Expanded, seamless connectivity
ERA chip technology enables simultaneous pairing to multiple Bluetooth® devices, meeting the expectations of today’s tech-connected clients.
Bringing it back to the client
As clinicians, our role is to match technology to the person, not just the audiogram. Virto R Infinio gives us another valuable option to do exactly that, broadening the profile of who can benefit from a custom device. From the tech-savvy business professional, to the client facing dexterity challenges, to the elite athlete seeking both performance and discretion, Virto R Infinio serves a wide range of needs.
Robin Gillon’s experience is just one example, but it illustrates the difference the right solution can make. When clients feel their hearing aids “fit their lifestyle perfectly,” the benefits often extend beyond listening, enhancing confidence and supporting greater engagement in daily life.
