The Phonak Audeo Infinio 50 R in review
In the jungle of hearing aid variants, we would like to provide you with some orientation and present another test report. Today we are focusing on a Phonak model, specifically the Audeo Infinio 50 R. The amplification power is sufficient for mild to severe hearing losses, and just by the arrangement of the speakers, it is discreet in the ear towards the eardrum, producing quite a reasonable sound. The Audeo Infinio 50 R is not exactly a conspicuous hearing aid in a high-quality range. It is worn behind the ear.
Hearing comfort
First, we evaluate the hearing comfort features. What types of noises does the hearing aid recognize? How does it handle them? Is the hearing aid suitable for a varied daily life? Here, with this test device, the manufacturer provides the customer with comprehensive sound management. As with all hearing aids, we also find the typical background noise suppression here. It aims to reduce monotonous, hissing background noises to a level where they are less prominent. The Audeo Infinio 50 R offers quite decent noise suppression. It may be too weak if you are often in traffic, but for regular daily life, it works well.
Wind can significantly limit hearing comfort outdoors when it brushes over the microphones. However, the Audeo Infinio 50 R has an effective wind noise suppression system integrated. It works really well and will appeal to those who enjoy spending time outside. It can be adjusted in several steps to suit personal needs. Furthermore, we are surprised by how well the impulse sound management works here. Nothing crashes, nothing rattles – very good! A high number of frequency bands aids in separating speech from noise. The Audeo Infinio 50 R is certainly among the leading devices with its 16 bands. Adaptive microphone systems facilitate spatial hearing. However, one must get used to the new sound; especially at the beginning, it may not always be completely clear where a sound is coming from.
Understanding speech in loud environments is always a challenge. Phonak approaches this issue with the use of artificial intelligence. The result is brilliant and clear speech transmission, while surrounding noises remain realistically loud to the ear.
Rating Hearing comfort: 2,0
Operation & connectivity
Since you probably don't have your audiologist by your side all the time, it's quite helpful to be able to make adjustments to the hearing aid yourself. There are various operation options available, and we'll take a look at the ones offered by the Audeo Infinio 50 R. There is a button directly on the hearing aid. This allows you to change the volume or activate additional listening programs. It can be programmed according to the customer's preferences. Of course, using it is optional. The small remote control, which is available optionally, is very practical. For us, it is one of the most convenient ways to adjust the hearing aid louder or softer or switch to another hearing program. No one notices it; reaching for the ear is unnecessary.
The modern form of operation via voice command is not yet found in the Audeo Infinio 50 R. Some hearing aids can also be controlled with a quick tap of the finger without needing to press a button. However, this feature has not been implemented here yet.
Apps for hearing aids are widely used today. The one for the Audeo Infinio 50 R has sparked our playful side. It's fun to use this app because it expands the functionality of the hearing aid with a few very useful tools. One of the best features of the hearing aid is the direct streaming function. With this, the hearing aid becomes a TrueWireless headphone and receives phone calls and other sounds directly in the ear. A compatible smartphone that contains 2.4 GHz technology is required. The greatest advantage is that you can hear phone calls not just in one ear, but in both. Additionally, the sound can be tailored to personal needs.
Rating Operation & connectivity: 1,7

Simplicity & security
In the next step, we want to address the topic of user-friendliness. Is the Audeo Infinio 50 R easy to use? Is it weatherproof? Do you have to do a lot to get used to it? Here are our answers: The integrated situation detection in the Audeo Infinio 50 R is rated in the middle range. The most important loud and quiet situations are recognized and adapted. However, for acoustically more complex moments, this is not quite sufficient, and additional manual adjustment options become necessary. We are very pleased with the integrated acclimatization manager. It gradually increases the volume of the hearing aid in tiny steps until our target amplification is eventually reached. We can relax and gradually acclimatize to the new hearing impressions.
The Audeo Infinio 50 R is rechargeable and no longer requires hearing aid batteries. This is environmentally friendly, as there are no old batteries to dispose of. At the same time, it is also extremely convenient, as there is no need to carry replacement batteries. The hearing aids simply go into the charging station at night and are ready for use the next morning.
We had a carefree everyday life during our test due to the IP-68 certification. This indicates that the hearing aid is particularly well protected against dust and water. We marched through the rain and then took out the hearing aids with wet hands - all no problem. However, the water resistance really only refers to fresh, natural water and not to foamy bath water or saltwater.
Rating Simplicity & security: 1,5
Phonak Audeo Infinio 50 R:
Extras
Wir sind schon fast am Ende, aber vielleicht hat dieses Gerät noch ein paar Geschenke in Form von Extra-Features? Lassen Sie uns mal nachschauen: Phonak hat einen Geräuschgenerator integriert, der für Tinnitus-Geplagte ein paar lindernde Klänge abspielt. Das kann vom Tinnitus ablenken und für etwas mehr Entspannung sorgen.
Einen echten Mehrwert bietet der Fernwartungsdienst. Für eine Veränderung der Hörgeräteeinstellung muss man nicht mehr zwingend ins Fachgeschäft gehen, sondern kann direkt über die App Kontakt zum Akustiker aufnehmen. Über einen Cloud-Dienst kann man dann das neue Datenpaket in die Hörgeräte laden. Genau so etwas erwarten wir von einem zeitgemäßen Hörgerät.
Sensoren im Hörgerät ermöglichen Funktionen, die einen echten Mehrwert bieten. In diesem Modell von Phonak stecken solche Sensoren drin und zählen z.B. über den Tag hinweg Ihre Schritte. Die Daten lassen sich dann in der App anschauen. Es kann gut sein, dass über nachfolgende Updates noch weitere Tracking-Funktionen hinzukommen. In Verbindung mit einem Smartphone überrascht uns das Audeo Infinio 50 R mit ein paar netten Lifestyle-Funktionen. Hier lohnt es sich auf jeden Fall, sich mit der App gründlich vertraut zu machen und die angebotenen Assistenzprogramme zu nutzen.
Rating Extras: 1,0
