Which feature excites you the most about the Oticon Range?
Just got my father fitted with the more 1's today. He can't believe the difference from his 7yr old widex. We are all super impressed with these and he's very happy. Thanks to this video we went there educated on the matter. Thank you again.
Matthew – ive been using the OPN for the last 5 years. They now require microphone replacements as there is 1 mic on each unit not functioning. My audiologist is suggesting I step up to the MORE1 instead claiming the tech is superior. But is it enough of a jump to warrant the spend? My biggest struggle is hearing in noisy environments (restaurants & bars, etc…). Do you agree that an upgrade from OPN to MORE makes sense and is worth the $6 spend as opposed to the $1k fix? Great Video BTW!
Yes I want to see a new video
Mathew, my name is Mark and I have a few questions relating to the Oticon More line of HA's.
Since 2017, I have worn Oticon OPN1 with 105 acrylic, skeleton style ear molds. I have a steep sloping high frequency loss starting at 1000hz (-20db) to 8000hz (-100db) bilaterally. This loss was caused by working in a heavy artillery battalion and frequent aircraft transportation, helicopters mostly, while serving is the US Army back in the 80's.
After watching a few of your videos, I discovered that the OPN S model really improved the feedback problems encountered on the OPN1 model.
I have always struggled with feedback problems with the OPN1's but they are otherwise superior in sound quality (especially music) to any of the other HA's I have tried over the years. My audiologist has frequently made new ear molds to try and address the feedback, but it continues. So, I just put up with it, because they are great otherwise.
My audiologist saw me this past Friday and suggested upgrading my 2017 OPN1 HA's with something newer. I am considering the Oticon More model 1's, with 105 receivers.
#1) Do you think the feedback problem be improved moving from the OPN1 to the MORE1's?
#2) Has the feedback technology on the MORE1's improved since the OPN S HA's?
#3) Am I able to use my existing 105 receivers on the MORE1's, or should I have them remade and keep the other HA's as spares?
#4) On my OPN1's, and an older Samsung phone, I had to use a connect clip, to hear my phone conversations. I now have a Samsung, Galaxy S22+ Ultra with Android 12 OS, and would like to hear music and listen to phone conversations without a connect clip. I don't mind holding my phone like a microphone so that the other person can hear me.
Can I accomplish that with the MORE's and my current Android phone, or should I get a connect clip as well?
Thank you, sir

“Bad sound makes good video look bad.”
I wonder if there is will be iic oticon more 🤔💚
I recently bought oticon more 1 and im fully dissapointed. My Last hearing aids was the oticon minirite agil pro and i listen the music so much more robotic with these New oticon more1
Are Oticon hearing aides available in the United States??
Hi team,is octicon store available in Hyderabad,india.let me know the address pls
Funny I have the exact HA you are reviewing and they wouldn’t pick the audio.
When you place the hearing aids in the charger, does it automatically default to the original settings despite having manually changed some of them during the day?
You lost me after one minute, tooooo fast talking
Purchased a new I phone 12.unabble
One thing I don't see many people talk about is using the Oticon TV adapter attached to your computer, using Teams, Zoom and other online meetings is excellent, l'm a trainer for a large healthcare provider and am in meetings most of the day. My home office is much quieter because I don't use traditional speakers most of the time. I wish you could adjust the time out on that device, but otherwise it works amazing.
Pls upload a video for Jabra Enhance Plus Bud review. Pls compare similar products. Can you also confirm that Airpods Pro can be used as a Hearing enhancement (Hearing amplifier)? When the version 2 of Airpods are released in later 2022, will there be any additional attention towards this feature of using Airpods as a hearing enhancement
Thank you! This is a wonderful public service, and I really appreciate you taking the time.
I have the Mores for a year now. Best digital aids I had until now. HOWEVER, in the area of connectivity, Phonak wins with miles ahead. Connectivity of the More with android phone is cumbersome, limited to just a very few phones and very buggy whileas in my testing period with phonak/unitron they were very reliable at this point. Also, the roger family of devices beats the phonak devices for connectivity (tvconnector, remote Mic, etc.)
Of only I could get the oticon more with Roger devices and Phonak bluetooth funcionality.
Rechargeable batteries are spelt Lithium-Ion not Lithium-Iron. My hearing is not good enough to tell you whether you said "Ion" or "Iron"!
I’m getting my first hearing aid and your presentation helped me feel more confident in my choices.
Hi I found your video very informative. Had Oticon More miniriteR fitted last week. Have hissing noise in all programmes and have not had to turn the volume down on my tv. The only programme I notice a difference on is P3 the music sounds better. Am waiting for my audiologist to make contact remotely as there has been an issue signing up to the remote app. Resolved now but still waiting. Have consigned the hearing aids to their box for now. At initial fitting I told audiologist I could hear hissing noises he just turned them down and said the brain will adjust. ???
Thank you for a very informative video. I am new to HAs and just had my first evaluation and this particular doctor recommended the Oticon More 2 (as that is what my insurance will partially remit for). Accordingly, she told me the Oticon More 1 would be full out of pocket and more than I'm willing to pay at this time. I have moderate hearing lost in one ear and slightly worse in the other. Anyway, my question is about the More 2 as opposed to the More 1. Generally, what I understand is the More 1 is fully automatic and the More 2 step down in features requires a manual adjustment if entering into a different sound environment. Is this the case? Also, I am considering buying only one for my worse ear now and then purchasing the second one maybe in a year should the technology advance even more. Your thoughts on that? Do these Oticon offer firmware upgrades to existing models to keep up with technological improvements? Thanks for any info you are willing to share.
Does the Oticon cros only transmit to the good ear or does it also transmit to the damaged ear? Is it possible for a hearing aid to convert a low tone to a high tone which I can hear in my damaged ear? Very detailed video. Thank you.
How did you record this with yourself, the background and phone displayed?
For a pair of Oticon More 1 costing North of £4k why is there no 'Normal' Bluetooth capability.. is there a cheaper alternative to the Connect device? I hear the TV fine but spend more time on the computer watching 'Hearing Tracker.'.. and a few others😋
Also, can I suggest you make 'playlists' according to make?
I'm Finding your content very helpful, knowledgeable, unbiased, factual, well presented. Thanks!
Audiologist recommended the Oticon More…but I want fun colors. Am I losing anything by choosing the Play PX over the More?
Thanks. Very helpful.

I have a question that I cannot get an answered. I have talked to my audiologist and Odicon Customer Support. My audiologist has said that the More 1 is about $2000/pair more expensive than the More 3. When I asked Odicon "What do I get for the extra money?" They talk about extra channels,better programing, and other technical stuff being better. In essence the More 1 is the better product depending on my hearing loss. The problem is they cannot really enough for me to decide why I should spend an extra $2000 dollars. I have no way of judging if I need they extra flexibility of the More 1. There is also the question of the speakers. There are three types and I do not know if I should get the better speakers. Can you help me understand what the differences mean in real life?
Excellent review Matthew. How does this compare to Xceed? Will there ever be a UP version of the More?
I have the first ones out ,love the Bluetooth feature, but it whistles terribly and can't turn them up, apparently this problem was a issue with the first type and has now been resolved ,wish I could get the latest ones as this drives me nuts!
I have never had good luck with these hearing aids using Bluetooth on my Samsung Note 20 Ultra. Mostly only 1 side would work at a time. Good news, I just upgraded to Android 12 and I could pair the hearing aids like on an iPhone without the Oticon app. It's only been 2 days but it looks like my Bluetooth woes are over. I hope this helps others! Thanks for the great Videos Mathew and If I can ever find my way to London I shall be booking an appointment.
Best video ever. Most useful description Ive heard ever. This guy knows his stuff well. I am an experienced user of ten years with Otocon More1s. THANK YOU!
So are Oticon aids the same as the Philips branded aids?
@hearingtracker
good evening, I’ve recently started wearing HAs earlier this year and my audiologist recommendation was Oticon More MiniRite R as she was very pleased with the technology it produced. I’m 28 years old with severe to profound hearing loss. The HAs is amazing when picking up natural sounds around me however it fails me when I need it for speech clarity and background noise cancellation (even over the counter service is still troublesome for me and from soft spoken individuals). What’s your recommendations that I should bring up with my audiologist before I visit their clinic for my current prescription? I.e. should they do REM test, should they adjust the device settings to have a better fit for my lifestyle? Thanks in advance doctor!
Thank you for your sharing review.
I'm a user of Oticon OPN S and was wondering whether to upgrade to More or to the New Starkey Livio Edge AI.
I'm considered an audiophile love listening to music.
The price I was given was 6690.00 for oticon
Can oticon help tinnitus related hearing loss
Hi Matthew, many thanks for this really informative review. I'm going to be changing from my old OPN 1 to the new More 1 hearing aids next week and I'm excited to see how they can improve my soundscape. I have a couple of questions:
1) If I wanted to show people a video on my phone or play music for others to hear, I used to turn off my hearing aids (by flipping open the battery lid) so that the iPhone would play through it's speakers. It seems more fiddly to do this with the More 1. Is there any easier way to make my iPhone play sounds through it's speaker or do I need to disconnect my More 1s every time?
2) The travel charger looks interesting and useful for when I stay away from home. This charger isn't on the Oticon website for some reason. Do you have a cost for this item? I assume it's expensive, because everything with Oticon seems to be expensive…
Thank you for this review, which one is better in your opinion, Oticon or Livio AI?
Thank you Matthew, that was a very informative video.
