New Oticon Platform 2024? Intent/Encanta

Did they take the name from a design firm that worked with Oticon before: Oticon Intiga | INTENT ?

I saw that in my google search too. Wondered if they wouldn’t need an agreement with that other firm to do that.

intiga was a very old instrument which came after the delta, in the old platform Jump 2

It seemed like something that firm worked on some time ago. Here’s some Intiga info in case anyone is interested: The Audiology of Oticon Intiga17

Oticon appears to be shifting from better (Opn/More) to faster and more present/intentional (Real/Intent). They must have some marketing data to support this direction and the digital technology is now faster. Possibly Widex was gaining some ground with the claim of less delay in sound processing.

Trademark registration12

Medwatch article19
“Among other things, the product will be compatible with the new low-energy Bluetooth standard, Nielsen tells MarketWire.”

Interesting…

In one of the videos, they mention that the hearing aid is smaller thanks to the smaller battery (I think size 13).

Oticon More and Real have a replaceable 312 size battery, and the new Intent have a bigger 13 size battery. This makes the Intent hearing aids thicker but also provide longer runtimes.

to me from the pictures, Intend looks bigger than Real but it’s just me
