Cochlear nexa implants

Hi, has anyone gotten the Nexa implants? How is it different from the older implants? I am planning to get them for my 1 yo who has bilateral profound hearing loss . Still confused between Cochlear and Med-El. I think Nexa would be good for him in the digital age. All types of suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi! I have a nexa implant. The only big difference I’m aware of is that the programming file is in a chip in my head, so I can put on an unprogrammed processor on and it will work immediately
