Widex Moment SmartRIC 220 Hearing Aids Overview

In April 2024, Widex unveiled the SmartRIC hearing aid range, showcasing a new slim L-shaped Receiver in Canal (RIC) design. Positioned at the introductory technology level, the Widex SmartRIC 110 hearing aids offer a selection of features tailored to address the needs of budget-conscious individuals with mild to severe hearing loss.

Advanced Technology with Limitations:

Equipped with 6 adjustment bands and 3 background sound analysis settings, the SmartRIC 110 hearing aids provide basic customisation options but lack the background noise Speech Enhancer. Suitable for those leading a quiet lifestyle with minimal listening needs, these aids are designed to accommodate limited budgets.

Powered by the Moment Platform Chip:

Driven by the Moment platform chip, the SmartRIC 110 hearing aids incorporate strategically positioned microphones to enhance directionality and focus, particularly in speech recognition. This technological advancement ensures authentic sound reproduction, granting clear access to desired voices while optimising focus where it matters most.

Key Features:

- Enhanced RIC Design: Improved microphone angles precisely direct focus for optimal sound clarity.

- Extended Battery Longevity: Widex's first portable charger offers over a week's worth of power for convenient, uninterrupted use.

- Carefully Engineered Microphone Covers: Reduce wind and touch noises, enhancing overall comfort and daily hearing experiences.

Benefits of the Redesigned Shape:

The horizontally positioned microphones in the SmartRIC 110 aid in improving directionality and signal-to-noise ratio, especially in challenging environments. This configuration enhances hearing effectiveness in social settings by reducing background noise interference.

Updated microphone covers further enhance the listening experience by reducing wind noise by 20 decibels and handling noise by 88%.

Core Technologies Retained:

Retaining Widex's core technologies, the SmartRIC 110 hearing aids include the Widex Speech Enhancer, swiftly detecting speech for clarity in various environments, and Widex PureSound with ZeroDelay Technology, ensuring a natural listening experience without artificial sounds or delays.

Accessories, Charger, App, and Colours:

The SmartRIC 110 hearing aids are rechargeable, offering an impressive 37-hour battery life and up to 7 days of charge with the portable charger.

Compatible accessories include Widex TV PLAY for direct TV audio streaming, SOUND ASSIST for remote control and audio streaming, SOUNDCONNECT for high-quality audio streaming from personal computers, and the MOMENT APP for personalised sound adjustments and helpful tips.

Available in five stylish colours—tech black, dark cherry, honey blonde, silver grey, and rose gold—the SmartRIC 110 hearing aids offer both functionality and aesthetic appeal.
