Siemens hearing aids

Siemens produce an extensive range of digital hearing aids for both adults and children. Siemens are the biggest hearing aid manufacturer in the world - one in every five hearing aids sold around the world is a Siemens product.

The hearing aids that they offer are grouped into three different categories: Ultimate, Value and Basic.

Ultimate

CENTRA™, CENTRA™ Active, CENTRA™ Life Dir

The Centra line is Siemens’ newest and most advanced hearing aid. It features sophisticated noise reduction, e2e wireless technology (see below), wind noise reduction and directional microphones.

ACURIS™, ACURIS™ Life

The Acuris models also feature e2e wireless. As well as that, they offer one touch control for manual adjustments: if you change the volume on one aid, they other adjusts itself automatically. A remote control can be optionally purchased with Acuris models to help you adjust your aids more easily and discreetly.

ARTIS™ with e2e wireless

This is the same as the Artis value range but with e2e wireless built in.

Value

ARTIS™ 2, ARTIS™, ARTIS™ Life

The Artis range offers twin directional microphones,  a telephone mode to make using the phone easier, an alert tone to notify that the aid’s battery needs replacing and all models in this range feature a special coating to repel rain, sweat and moisture. The Artis 2 has similar feature to the Centra models.

CIELO™, CIELO™ 2, CIELO™ Life

The Cielo models offer: adaptive directional microphones, speech and noise management, wind noise reduction and a n optional remote control. They also save data about how you use them; your audiologist can use this data to better adjust your Cielo aid to meet your hearing needs.

Basic

INTUIS™

The Intuis family features noise reduction and feedback cancellation. Most models offer directional microphones.

PHOENIX™, PHOENIX™ One

The Phoenix range is Siemens’ cheapest offering. It lacks many of the feature seen in the more advanced aid above.

e2e wireless technology

The e2e (ear-2-ear) system enables two digital hearing aids to act as one. It is very similar to Oticon’s Epoq technology. With e2e, your two hearing aids communicate with each other to produce a more natural sound - the two aids synchronise with each other, this helps you to better localise sounds.

  1. I have only had my siemens reflex hearing aids for 12 days and the right one has stopped working, it’s not the battery I checked. I was wearing it when it stopped. can you give me a possible solution?

  2. Hi Diane,

    You should take your aids back to where you bought them from straight away. You should have a warranty with them and so your audiologist should repair them for free. If it’s nothing obvious then the audiologist will probably have to send them back to Siemens - again, this should be within your warranty and should be free.

    Good luck,
    Steve.
