Our Senior Audio Engineer, Nick Nagurka, unboxed the Phonak Roger 2.4 GHz Wireless System.
First Impressions
The incredibly discrete earpiece receiver has over 12-hours of battery life, and its lightweight form factor has great sound for a tiny device that is practically invisible.
The sturdy Phonak Roger BaseStation automatically responds to changes in frequency, and the paired Repeater is an excellent addition to help extend the signal range for the earpiece receiver.
