Mountaineer Win Whittaker Joins Show to Share Life-Enhancing Benefits of ReSound Smart Hearing™.
COPENHAGEN, Denmark - International hearing aid manufacturer GN ReSound announced today its plans to return to CES in Las Vegas to showcase ReSound’s leading Smart Hearing solutions. ReSound introduced the first Made for iPhone® hearing aid, ReSound LiNX™, at CES in 2014 and continues to lead the industry by combining excellent sound quality and unique wireless technology to develop solutions that make a true difference for people living with hearing loss.
At CES 2016, held January 6-9, ReSound will feature its full line-up of Smart Hearing solutions through interactive in-person demonstrations. Located at Booth #74050 in Tech West, Sands Expo, the company is part of the Health & Wellness Marketplace. Visiting attendees will have several opportunities to experience the incredible Smart Hearing technologies available to people with hearing loss, through:
- Live demonstrations of the world’s first full family of Made for iPhone hearing aids, ReSound LiNX2™, including hands-on demos of the ReSound Smart™ app, offering revolutionary personalization of hearing aid settings and direct sound streaming capabilities.
- Firsthand experiences from ReSound Smart Hearing wearer Win Whittaker – part of a legendary mountaineering family, Whittaker has addressed hearing loss without compromising his active lifestyle. Whittaker will also be featured on the CES main stage during the show.
- Hearing loss simulations to help visitors understand the dramatic difference of living with hearing loss, and its impact on relationships and professional life.
The company will also preview the global launch of ReSound ENZO2™, the smartest super power hearing aid for people with profound hearing loss. Available today to U.S. consumers, ReSound ENZO2 will launch in other markets in March 2016.
“We are thrilled to return to CES with a comprehensive portfolio of Smart Hearing technologies, which meets the needs of all people living with hearing loss in a range of solutions that are easily personalized for any lifestyle,” said Kim Lody, president of ReSound U.S. “We start with our customer in mind – from delivering ReSound LiNX2, the world’s first full family of Made for iPhone hearing aids, to developing the first app that allows people to adjust their hearing aid settings directly from Apple Watch, our dedication to consumers comes through in everything we do.”
ReSound Innovations Receive Early Recognition
With a few weeks remaining before the show opens, ReSound is already being recognized as a technology leader at CES. The company was recently named one of 18 finalists in the 2016 Bluetooth Breakthrough Awards for its ReSound Smart app for Apple Watch, and last month was announced as a CES 2016 Innovation Awards Honoree for ReSound LiNX2. ReSound will showcase its leading Smart Hearing solutions at CES’ prominent press events, including CES Unveiled on January 4 and ShowStoppers on January 6.
