The short answer

What Bernafon does differently

Bernafon positions Encanta around a natural balance of speech understanding and listening comfort, with four clearly named performance levels rather than a catalogue of overlapping numbers.

Alpha XT remains relevant for established Hybrid Technology fittings, while Leox covers people who need substantially more output than a typical receiver-in-canal aid can provide. These are distinct use cases, which is why we assess the hearing loss and speech understanding before discussing products.

  • Custom, rechargeable and power options
  • Home fitting with lifetime aftercare

The technology

Bernafon technology levels and styles

Encanta's four levels make the range easier to compare, but the correct level still depends on the environments where extra processing is likely to help.

100 CONNECT: simple needs

straightforward support for quieter, less varied settings

200 GO: everyday listening

balanced help across a moderate range of situations

300 ENGAGE: social settings

stronger support for regular groups and mixed environments

400 PRO: complex listening

the fullest support for noise and group conversation

  • Custom and power choices, including discreet canal and Leox BTE options where suitable

Independent advice

When Bernafon might not be the right brand

Another manufacturer may provide a more suitable remote microphone, phone implementation, tinnitus feature, power format or preferred sound. Bernafon and Oticon share wider group connections, but their products and fitting software are not identical; we compare the actual models rather than calling one a cheaper version of the other.

  3. Fitting and verification

Bernafon questions

Common questions about Bernafon hearing aids

Which Bernafon Encanta level is best?

There is no universal best level. Encanta 400 has the fullest feature set, but the right choice depends on the environments where you need meaningful benefit.

Does Bernafon make invisible hearing aids?

Bernafon offers discreet custom options in appropriate ranges. Ear anatomy, wax, hearing level, dexterity and connectivity needs determine whether an IIC or CIC is sensible.

Does Bernafon make power hearing aids?

Yes. Leox includes Super Power and Ultra Power BTE models intended for suitable severe-to-profound hearing losses.

Are Bernafon and Oticon the same?

No. They are associated through the same wider hearing-technology group, but the products, software and feature implementation are not identical. We compare the actual models and fittings.

How much do Bernafon hearing aids cost?

Cost depends on the Encanta level, style and whether one aid or a pair is required. We give a written quote after the free test covering the exact products, charger, warranty, fitting and aftercare.
