Hands-Free Calling and Full Connectivity: The Modern Marvel of Hearing Tech

In an age where communication is constant and seamless connectivity is expected, hearing technology has taken a revolutionary leap forward. For individuals with hearing loss in Singapore, the combination of Marvel Cochlear Implants (CI) and Phonak Hearing Aids represents a turning point in how they connect with the world. At Cochlear Implants by The Listening Lab (www.cochlearimplant.sg), we are proud to offer cutting-edge solutions that not only improve hearing but also elevate lifestyle.

With hands-free calling from either ear—or both—combined with universal Bluetooth® streaming, users can experience newfound independence and ease in everyday interactions. Let’s explore how this modern marvel is transforming lives.

Seamless Communication: Hands-Free Calling From Either Ear

One of the standout features of the Marvel CI + Phonak Hearing Aid system is hands-free calling, a true game-changer for users. Whether you’re taking a work call on the MRT or catching up with a friend over lunch, you can do it without reaching for your phone.

What sets it apart:

  • Both ears, fully engaged: Audio is streamed to both ears simultaneously, creating a more natural, stereo listening experience.
  • Noise reduction: With AutoSense OS in both devices, the system intelligently classifies sound environments to reduce background noise—ideal for Singapore’s bustling cafés and city streets.
  • Crystal-clear speech: Even in noisy surroundings, users report a significant improvement in speech comprehension thanks to enhanced microphone directionality and binaural processing.

These features offer not only convenience but also greater safety and confidence in communication—vital for professionals, students, and seniors alike.

Total Connectivity: Bluetooth® Streaming From Any Device

Gone are the days of compatibility headaches. The Marvel CI + Phonak solution supports universal Bluetooth® connectivity, meaning you can connect to:

  • Smartphones (iOS or Android)
  • Tablets
  • Laptops
  • Smart TVs
  • Video conferencing platforms like Zoom or Microsoft Teams

This universal compatibility enables Singaporeans to stay connected at home, at work, and on the go.

Practical Benefits:

  • Work-from-anywhere: Easily join virtual meetings without additional accessories.
  • Entertainment on demand: Stream music, podcasts, and videos with full stereo quality.
  • Education access: Students can engage in online learning with clearer audio.

Why it matters: For many users, especially older adults, this tech reduces the complexity of managing multiple devices. The streamlined experience promotes independence and empowers users to stay socially and professionally active.

More Than Just Sound: Smart Integration Across Devices

Marvel CI and Phonak Hearing Aids are more than hearing devices—they’re an integrated audio system. Features like:

  • One-touch control via app: Adjust volume and change programs for both devices with a single app.
  • Shared accessories: Use tools like the TV Connector or Roger microphones across both ears.
  • Auto-syncing: The devices automatically balance and align processing to ensure optimal hearing in all environments.

This level of device harmony ensures a smoother, more intuitive experience that adapts to real-life scenarios.

Practical Tips for Maximizing Your Hearing Tech

To get the most out of your Marvel CI + Phonak system, consider the following strategies:

  1. Download the AB Remote app: Control both devices easily and personalize settings based on your preferences.
  2. Utilize remote programming: Especially useful in Singapore’s fast-paced lifestyle, remote sessions let your audiologist adjust settings without needing an in-person visit.
  3. Leverage accessories: Devices like the Roger microphone can significantly enhance speech clarity in noisy settings like hawker centres or during corporate events.
  4. Stay updated: Firmware updates often bring performance enhancements. Schedule periodic checks with your audiologist or Cochlear Implants by The Listening Lab to ensure you’re getting the best experience.
