We wish all hörbert fans (and especially over 45000 hörbert children since 2011 ? )
a wonderful, musical, audio-playful and healthy new year!
On a personal note, I would like to thank everyone who bought our new hörbert with Bluetooth, WiFi and recording functions included (and microphone optional) from October 2021. In particular, I would like to thank the people who “blindly” pre-ordered hörbert back in October. The transition to a new model is not easy to plan and execute, but our sensational team worked so hard to ensure that every hörbert was under the tree on time. And our sensational customers helped us through it to the best of their ability :-)
We have also already implemented the first feedback and recommend everyone to update hörbert’s firmware: Firmware updates for hörbert.
This will clear up some questions that would otherwise come up in our support, and can be solved quite easily – so it saves you the trouble of sending an email or making a phone call. It’s worth practising updating the firmware anyway, because that’s how we’ll keep providing new features – because the hörbert electronics are completely new, and our idea pot is full to the brim.
In 2022 we will of course offer to upgrade your hörberts 2011 to the new electronics, because you know that from us: sustainability is hörbert’s second name, and a long product life is the basis for sustainability for us.
We will publish information about this in the coming weeks. We will also be able to offer the new electronics kit then – here is a small foretaste in the form of the circuit diagrams: https://en.hoerbert.com/technology/
With great joy about what we have achieved
I wish you all a good start into the new year
Rainer Brang
on behalf of the entire hörbert team ?
