Oticon More™ is powered by an entirely new chipset, Polaris™, boasting an eightfold increase in memory and twice the processing power compared to the previous generation, Velox S™.
The new Oticon More™ makes use of the new BrainHearing™ technology to provide users access to clear sound scenes in which the meaningful sounds are in balance and stand out from the background.
