Hearing aids made by OticonOticon manufactures a full line of hearing aid models in all sizes and price ranges. Oticon Intent™Oticon's flagship product, Oticon Intent™ received a few key updates in 2025. The Intent combines two technologies—four-dimensional user-intent sensors and an improved deep neural network—to create a hearing aid capable of understanding a user’s listening intentions. The sensors track head and body movement to better identify listening needs in real time, automatically adjusting to deliver clearer, more personalized sound. It is compatible with iPhone and select Android devices and it's suitable for mild to profound levels of hearing loss. The latest update expands connectivity with Bluetooth® LE Audio and Google’s Fast Pair, allowing Android™ users to connect instantly and enjoy effortless, high-quality streaming. A new miniBTE R style is now available offering Oticon’s smallest and most powerful behind-the-ear option with dual fitting levels, touch controls, and a full day of battery life. Powered by Oticon’s BrainHearing™ technology and second-generation AI sound processing, Intent continues to deliver the company’s fastest, most natural sound experience yet—now with future-ready support for Auracast™ broadcast audio and other next-generation features.

Pediatric hearing aidsOticon has long been regarded as a leader in pediatric amplification with the types of hearing aids and accessories needed by children in the classroom and beyond. The Opn Play PX hearing aids have a fast processing speed, which improves the child's ability to understand speech and reduces unwanted noise better. For children with severe or profound hearing loss, Oticon offers the Xceed Play model. Pediatric hearing aid models are available in styles that sit behind the ear. These styles are best for children since they grow and change too quickly to make custom-fit in the ear (ITE) hearing aids practical. In addition to providing multiple fun color options and stickers for personalization, the following kid-friendly features come standard on the pediatric hearing aids:
Super power hearing aidsFor adults with severe or profound hearing loss, Oticon offers the Xceed. Xceed is a super power BTE style with an amplifier that puts out a lot of sound with a size 13 battery, which is a smaller battery than power aids of the past. Other hearing aids made by OticonFor people with single-sided deafness, Oticon also offers a CROS hearing aid. A CROS hearing aid contains a transmitter with a microphone that wirelessly picks up and sends the sound from your poorer ear to the better ear. It is available with a rechargeable battery. Hearing aids for veteransIf you’re a veteran with diagnosed hearing loss, your VHA benefits include Oticon products. For veterans who also have tinnitus, Tinnitus SoundSupport is available in most of their hearing aid styles. Oticon's hearing aids include features like Bluetooth connectivity, telecoil, compact design, and rechargeable batteries. Hearing advocates consider these the four most important features in a hearing aid. Accessories for Oticon hearing aidslets you adjust certain hearing aid settings.
