      Phonito Nano hidden earpiece

      Phonito Nano by Phonak is the world’s smallest covert radio earpiece for undercover professionals.

      With its tiny form factor, secure in-ear fit and skin-matching color options, Phonito Nano is entirely invisible to the naked eye, ensuring the user’s cover and boosting the chances of operational success.

      Available in beige or dark brown, the Phonito Nano hidden earpiece is built around a new Hybrid audio chip and inductive technology. This approach offers users both excellent sound quality and allows Nano to be used alongside any existing inductive wiring loops a customer might own.

      Thanks to its built-in passive coil technology, Phonito Nano is less susceptible to frustrating interference than its inductive competitors. And following customer feedback from security professionals around the world its ‘ground noise’ level has also been carefully optimized - ensuring users hear enough ‘Switched On’ buzz to be confident their equipment is working, but not so much that communication is compromised.

      • Crystal-clear sound
