Hearing aids: smarter sound, smarter you
Your hearing changes depending on what you’re doing – whether you’re chatting with friends, walking through a park or relaxing at home. The Oticon Intent is the first hearing aid designed to adapt to you. Using 4D Sensor Technology and an advanced Deep Neural Network (DNN 2.0), it understands your movement, environment and conversation activity to keep sound clear, balanced and effortless in every moment.
At Leightons, we pair this cutting-edge technology with expert fitting and lifetime aftercare - so your Oticon Intent doesn’t just sound smart, it sounds like you.
