Phonak Terra +

Phonak Terra+: Smart Hearing That Grows With You

Let’s be honest: you want great hearing technology, but you don’t necessarily need every single bell and whistle. You also don’t want to feel like you’re settling for a stripped‑down product. That’s exactly where the Phonak Terra+ fits. It’s the “plus” version of Phonak’s value‑friendly Terra line, offering upgraded connectivity, more streaming options, and a choice of battery types—all while keeping the price sensible. It’s the smart middle ground between essential hearing and premium performance.

One Family, Three Ways to Wear

The Phonak Terra+ is available in three distinct form factors, so you can choose what fits your hearing loss, your lifestyle, and your comfort.

• Terra+ BTE (Behind‑The‑Ear): A classic, durable BTE design available in M (Medium), SP (Super Power), and UP (Ultra Power) levels. Ideal for those with moderate to profound loss who need maximum power and a long‑lasting disposable battery.

• Terra+ RIC 312 (Receiver‑In‑Canal): A discreet, slim design that sits behind the ear with a thin tube going into the ear canal. Runs on a size 312 disposable battery and is available in S (Small), M (Medium), and P (Power) receiver levels. Perfect for mild to severe loss.

• Terra+ RIC‑R (Rechargeable RIC): The most modern option. It features a built‑in lithium‑ion battery—no battery changes, just drop it in the charger at night. Comes in S, M, P, and UP power configurations. This is the go‑to choice for users who want hassle‑free daily use.

The Intelligent Core: AutoSense OS™ 5.0 (Limited)

Inside every Phonak Terra+ is AutoSense OS™ 5.0 (Limited Edition). This is the same intelligent operating system found in Phonak’s premium Lumity range, but with a focused set of features optimized for value. It automatically scans your environment and adapts your hearing aids to match the situation—without you ever touching a button.

Key automatic programs include:

• Speech in Noise: When you’re in a noisy place like a restaurant or a family gathering, the system instantly detects and reduces distracting background sounds, helping you focus on the person speaking to you.

• Calm Situation: For quiet, one‑on‑one conversations at home or in the office, the system provides clear, natural amplification without over‑processing.

Streaming That Makes Sense

The Terra+ takes streaming seriously. It offers AutoSense OS 5.0 Streaming modes that intelligently switch when media is detected:

• Media Speech + Mic: When you’re watching a video or listening to a podcast, the system optimizes for vocal clarity while keeping your own microphone active so you can still hear someone speak to you.

• Media Music + Mic: For music streaming, the system adjusts to a richer, fuller soundstage while still allowing ambient awareness.

You also get dedicated streaming programs for accessories:

• PartnerMic + Mic: When connected to the Phonak PartnerMic™ wireless microphone, the system prioritizes the speaker’s voice while still letting you hear your own environment.

• Phone Call + Mic: For hands‑free phone calls, the system balances the caller’s voice with your surroundings.

Powerful Features You Can Rely On

The Terra+ is packed with genuinely useful features that make daily listening easier:

• UltraZoom: Focuses on the person directly in front of you while reducing noise from the sides and behind—perfect for busy restaurants or crowded rooms.

• Broadband Booster (BTE‑UP only): Extends high‑frequency amplification for those with severe‑to‑profound loss, helping you hear crisp sounds like birdsong or children’s voices.

• User Preference Tuning: The hearing aids learn your volume and program preferences over time, automatically applying them for a personalized experience.

• Auto Acclimatization: Gradually introduces full amplification over several weeks, helping new users adjust comfortably without feeling overwhelmed.

• Environmental Balance: Maintains a natural soundscape by balancing amplification across different frequencies.

• SoundRecover & SoundRecover2: These intelligent features take high‑pitched sounds—like the “s” in “sun” or the “th” in “think”—and carefully move them down into a frequency range your ears can still perceive, so you don’t miss those subtle but important speech details.

• WhistleBlock: Instantly detects and stops annoying feedback whistles before they start.

• NoiseBlock (Limited Settings): Reduces steady background noise like fan hum or traffic when no speech is present.

• Quick Sync: Adjustments made to one hearing aid (volume or program) are instantly mirrored to the other.

Fine‑Tuning and Connectivity

The Terra+ offers fine‑tuning channels (varies by tier L30 to L90) so your audiologist can precisely match the device to your unique hearing loss. It also supports wireless accessories:

• TV Connector: Send the audio from your television directly into your hearing aids for clear, personalized listening without turning up the volume for everyone else.

• Phonak PartnerMic™: A remote microphone that streams a speaker’s voice directly to you—ideal for lectures, meetings, or car rides.

• Phonak RemoteControl: A discreet remote to adjust volume and programs without touching your phone.

The myPhonak app gives you control over volume, programs, and even remote support from your hearing care professional. And every Terra+ comes with a 2‑year manufacturer’s warranty.

Who Is the Phonak Terra+ For?

The Terra+ is perfect for first‑time hearing aid users who want modern features without the premium price tag. It’s also ideal for existing Phonak users who want to upgrade to the Lumity platform affordably. And with three form factors (BTE, RIC 312, RIC‑R), it fits almost any degree of hearing loss.

If you’re ready for reliable, intelligent, and genuinely helpful hearing technology that won’t empty your wallet, the Phonak Terra+ is a smart, honest choice.
