Background
Virto is the custom, in-ear hearing aid line from Phonak, one of the most established hearing aid manufacturers in the world.
What makes Virto stand out is that it takes the same core sound processing used in Phonak’s flagship receiver-in-canal hearing aids and packages it into a made-for-your-ear design. Each Virto device is built from an ear impression, so the fit, comfort, and sound are tailored specifically to you.
Virto is available in several styles, from fully rechargeable models with Bluetooth streaming to ultra-small, battery-powered options that sit deep in the ear canal and are invisible in most ears. The result is a flexible product family that lets you choose what matters most: connectivity, discretion, or a balance of both.
Key Features
Custom Fit, Made for Your Ear
Every Virto hearing aid is custom-built based on an impression of your ear. That custom shell helps improve comfort, stability, and sound delivery compared to one-size-fits-all designs.
For people who struggle with comfort or retention in standard in-ear hearing aids, this alone can be a big upgrade.
Flagship Phonak Sound Processing
Virto uses the same sound platform found in Phonak’s top behind-the-ear and receiver-in-canal devices. That means strong speech clarity, effective background noise management, and reliable performance in everyday environments like restaurants, meetings, and family gatherings.
Depending on the model, Virto can support mild to profound hearing loss, with professional programming at a local clinic to match your exact hearing profile.
Rechargeable or Ultra-Discrete Battery Options
Virto gives you choice when it comes to power and visibility:
- Virto Rechargeable (R) Infinio models come with a charging case and support Bluetooth streaming for phone calls, music, and media.
- IIC (Invisible-in-Canal) versions use disposable batteries and do not include Bluetooth, but they are extremely small and virtually invisible when worn.
If staying connected is your priority, Virto R is the better fit. If discretion comes first, the smallest battery-powered options are hard to beat.
Bluetooth Streaming (Rechargeable Models)
Rechargeable Virto models offer direct Bluetooth connectivity, allowing you to stream audio and take calls without extra accessories.
Because this technology is packed into a very small custom shell, battery life and streaming time are more modest than with larger hearing aids, but for most users it’s more than enough for daily calls and media.
Virto Titanium Option
The Virto Titanium model uses medical-grade titanium instead of acrylic for the shell. Titanium allows for a thinner, stronger housing, which often results in:
- A slightly smaller device
- A more precise fit
- Improved durability
This option is especially appealing if you want the smallest possible custom hearing aid without sacrificing strength or comfort.
How Does the Sound Compare?
Virto delivers the smooth, balanced sound Phonak is known for, with an emphasis on speech clarity and listening comfort throughout the day.
Because these are professionally programmed prescription hearing aids, your audiologist or hearing care professional can fine-tune them over time as your preferences and listening needs evolve.
Is Virto Right for You?
Virto is a strong option if you want custom-fit, in-ear hearing aids with local support.
- Choose rechargeable Virto if you want Bluetooth streaming and modern convenience.
- Choose IIC or Titanium if visibility and fit are your top priorities.
If you want help deciding which Virto style makes the most sense for your hearing loss, lifestyle, and priorities, our team is happy to walk through the options and connect you with a local clinic for next steps.

How much does local care through Soundly cost?
Every Soundly customer starts with a free hearing test and consultation.
If hearing aids are recommended, you’ll have access to fixed, transparent pricing ranging from $1,998 to $4,098 per pair, which includes unlimited appointments for the first 60 days—this is what most people choose.
After that initial period, you can:
- Continue care through a one year ($500) or three year ($1,250) service package with your provider, or
- Pay as you go for follow-up visits (typically around $100 per appointment)
Use our price calculator to compare pricing across models and brands.
Soundly’s program offers strong savings and flexibility—but it works a bit differently than traditional clinic models.
Here’s why pricing is often lower:
Program Scale
- Our partnerships allow us to offer clear, transparent pricing—passing savings directly to you.
Flexible Ongoing Care
- Many clinics bundle 2–3 years of care into the upfront price. With Soundly, you only pay for ongoing care if and when you need it. Your initial purchase includes unlimited care for the first 60 days, covering the critical setup and adjustment period. After that you can set up a service package or pay as you go (typically around $100 per visit).
