3 reasons why
DREAM sets a new standard in hearing aid performance. There are three excellent
reasons to recommend DREAM to your clients:
1 MoreSOUND
DREAM gives users incredibly rich and detailed sound – even in noisy environments such as concerts
or sports events. And tests back this up, with users demonstrating a clear preference for True-Input
Technology compared to other high performing technology.
Hear the sound of DREAM for yourself with the unique DREAM app,
available on App Store (search for Widex DREAM).
2 MoreWords
DREAM significantly improves speech intelligibility for users, particularly in noisy environments.
In a recent trial, DREAM was shown to improve speech perception, with the vast majority of users
experiencing better speech recognition in loud noise, in some cases as much as up to 21 percent.
3 MorePERSONAL
All DREAM users have access to their very own personal website, called MY.WIDEX.COM. It is the
ultimate touch point for you to connect with your clients and provide a unique after sales service.
Eight out of ten hearing aid users who have tried MY.WIDEX.COM are more satisfied
with their hearing aids than they were before.
To see more, go to YouTube and write MY.WIDEX.COM in the search filter.
