Unitron Hearing Aids in Fort Lauderdale, FL
About Unitron
Unitron is a Canadian hearing aid manufacturer founded in 1964 and headquartered in Kitchener, Ontario. Today, Unitron is part of the Sonova Group — the same parent company as Phonak — which gives its devices access to strong, proven underlying technology platforms while maintaining its own distinct brand philosophy and patient-focused approach.
While Phonak has become synonymous with technological ambition and pushing the boundaries of what hearing aids can do, Unitron has carved out its own identity around a different set of values: flexibility, personalization, and a commitment to meeting patients where they are in their hearing journey rather than overwhelming them with complexity. For many patients — especially first-time hearing aid users and those on a tighter budget — this approach is not a compromise. It is exactly what they need.
The Unitron Approach — The Flex Philosophy
Flex:trial
Most hearing aid trials work like this: the patient chooses a technology level based on the specialists’ recommendation, wears that level during the trial period, and decides whether to buy. The problem is that patients often cannot know how much benefit they will receive from a higher technology level without actually experiencing it — especially in their real-world daily environments.
Unitron’s Flex:trial solves this. During the trial period, the hearing care professional can remotely unlock different technology levels for the patient to experience — without swapping devices. The patient wears the same physical hearing aids throughout the trial but can compare how they perform at different technology levels across their actual daily environments: at home, in the office, in restaurants, at family events. This gives patients a genuinely informed basis for deciding which technology level delivers meaningful benefit for their lifestyle.
Flex:upgrade
Flex:upgrade extends this flexibility beyond the trial. If a patient starts with a mid-level technology tier and later decides they want more performance — because their listening demands increase, their hearing changes, or they simply want to experience more — they can upgrade their existing hearing aids to a higher technology level without purchasing new devices. They simply pay the difference in technology level, not the cost of new hardware.
This makes Unitron hearing aids a genuinely long-term investment — one that can grow with the patient over time rather than requiring a full replacement to access better features.
