With Bluetooth LE Audio, Oticon Intent is a future-proof hearing aid, ready for future communication technologies such as Auracast™ broadcast audio*. Users with smart devices that can handle LE Audio can stream high-quality audio content and enjoy hands-free calls on compatible Android™ phones and tablets with OS 14 (or newer). Your clients can even take online meetings and video calls on their compatible PC with two-way audio.
Now, with the new Easy LE Adapter, the benefits of LE Audio are available to users wearing Oticon Intent, even if they currently don’t have devices that are LE Audio compatible**. Simply plug the Easy LE Adapter into your client's compatible USB-C smart device to instantly upgrade them to the latest LE Audio technology***. Once one smart device is paired to the hearing aids, your clients can switch the Easy LE Adapter between their different USB-C smart devices seamlessly – without needing to pair again.
* Auracast broadcast audio will be available through a future firmware update.
** The Easy LE Adapter is not intended for use with phones that support Bluetooth LE Audio, or with iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Vision Pro.
*** Most phones that have a 3.5 mm audio jack built into them will not support the Easy LE Adapter, as some phone manufacturers choose to route the audio through the jack port rather than the USB-C port.
