The Phonak Audeo Lumity 70 312 in review
Das Lumity gilt seit der Einführung der Phonak Infinio Sphere als technisch überholt und erhält daher einen Abschlag in der Gesamtbewertung.
Are you curious about this hearing aid from Phonak? Let's see what we've found out. The Audeo Lumity 70 312 is designed for mild, moderate, and also severe hearing losses, and it is worn behind the ear. It is a discreet hearing aid from the high-end category.
Due to the deep placement of the speaker in the ear canal, we have a good, clear sound.
Hearing comfort
Right from the start, we deal with the topic of hearing comfort. By this, we mean all the features that ensure a completely pleasant, rich, and interference-free sound. In the Audeo Lumity 70 312, the manufacturer provides the customer with comprehensive noise management.
The classic noise cancellation is, of course, also present here. Its task is to detect and slightly reduce simple noises from the environment. This Phonak model includes a remarkable and well-functioning noise reduction. Pulse sound suppression is a crucial element in the comfort features of a hearing aid. It dampens popping and rattling noises. In the Audeo Lumity 70 312, this damping occurs in several stages. This definitely earns a few extra points.
We are impressed with how effectively the wind noise is suppressed with this hearing aid and how stable the device works even in stronger winds. Spatial hearing functions very reliably. Directional hearing is supported, and the spatial impression is good. With 20 channels, the frequency band count in the Audeo Lumity 70 312 is very high. This allows the hearing aid to be perfectly adjusted to any hearing and provides good long-term tuning options. Speech in noisy environments is always a challenge. Phonak addresses this issue with the use of artificial intelligence. The result is brilliant and clear speech transmission, while the ambient noises still come through realistically loud.
Rating Hearing comfort: 1,5

Operation & connectivity
Although hearing aids are now very intelligent, they still cannot read the thoughts of the hearing aid wearer. Thus, the automatic features occasionally reach their limits. Individual adjustment options can be really useful, so let’s take a quick look at the options with the Audeo Lumity 70 312: A very quick way to adjust the volume is the small button on the device. It is easy to feel, and you can increase or decrease the volume in several steps. Additional programs for special hearing situations can also be activated this way. If someone prefers to do without the button, it can simply be deactivated. A remote control is available for the Audeo Lumity 70 312. It's quite handy, fits in your pocket, and offers a volume control option as well as various hearing programs.
Sometimes it's just impractical to first take out the smartphone or remote control. In such cases, voice control proves to be a clever alternative. Even with limited dexterity, controlling the hearing aids via voice command can be a real help. However, this Phonak model does not support control of the hearing aids with a simple fingertip, as it would require specific sensors in the housing.
Hearing aid apps are becoming increasingly popular. With the Audeo Lumity 70 312, we are in luck: there is a corresponding app. This app has completely impressed us. Not only are there numerous ways to adjust the hearing aids to personal hearing preferences, but the app also offers a wealth of lifestyle features. We had a lot of fun with direct, wireless streaming. This means that calls from the smartphone can be transmitted to the hearing aids without any additional accessories. This transforms the hearing aid into a perfect hands-free device or wireless headphones. Listening to music or watching and hearing videos is incredibly comfortable as well.

Simplicity & security

Its task is to gradually increase the volume of the hearing aid in tiny steps until the target volume is reached. This way, you can relax and gradually get used to the new hearing impressions.

Extras
Before we come to the end, let's take a look at the extras: Phonak has integrated a noise generator that plays some soothing sounds for those suffering from tinnitus. This can distract from the tinnitus and provide a bit more relaxation.
Phonak is keeping up with the times and offers a forward-looking feature with the remote fitting service. Working individuals with little time can contact their audiologist online and have their hearing aids reprogrammed. Hearing aid users who have a longer travel distance to their specialist store also benefit from this special service.
Special sensors in the Phonak Audeo Lumity 70 312 provide brand new insights into your health status. For example, at the end of a day, you can check how many steps you've taken. By the way, you don't even need to have your smartphone with you while on the go. You only need to take a look at the app to retrieve the data. You should take a closer look at the app for this Phonak device, as it contains some extras that significantly expand the functionality of these hearing aids. We really think these additional features are great!
