![]() ![]() ![]() Whereas the new iO Series offers the solitary choice of the iO Ultimate Clean round brush head (a gentle version with exactly the same design also offered). With that previous top of the line model, the GENIUS 9000 Toothbrush, you had a wide selection of different styles of compatible toothbrush heads to choose from. Weirdly this brush is only supplied with a lonely toothbrush head, a departure from the days when Oral-B would bundle four with their top of the line model. There are 7 modes in total, which include a sensitive mode for a gentler clean, super sensitive, whiten, gum care for massaging, intense and tongue clean. Ours is located on a shelf, so the brush has successfully fended off some falls onto the carpet - nevertheless a testament to the design.īattery life lasts consistently for fourteen two minute cleaning cycles, so you have a solid week of cleaning in daily clean mode. However, the magnetism could be a tad stronger as a slight knock will destabilise the brush. Now you can pop it down at any angle and it's fully charged within 3hrs. The later accessory is a nice redesign of the previous generation of Oral-B chargers where the toothbrush had to be aligned in a certain way to connect onto the base. In the box you’ll also find the premium Power2Go travel case, which you can charge the toothbrush within, travel brush head holder (ideal for couples) and the magnetic charger base. ![]() ![]() Once it hits 0%, the brush turns into a manual type, no low power mode, so we never let it go below 10%. But one of our favourite utilities of this display has to be the battery percentage readout it makes a world of difference to reliably know the amount of energy left. The additional benefit of selecting a mode and visual feedback via animated faces is a nice touch, so you get a smiley face when you’ve brushed well for example. New is the display: having an easy to read colour screen visible in the mirror, makes seeing realtime timer progress at a glance blissfully simple. Force feedback is also here, but sometimes when you’re tired it can be easy to miss when you’ve brushed for a 30 second block and to second guess if you’ve brushed the full 2 minute cycle. Good ideas from previous brushes remain in place, such as the multicoloured LED ring to indicate when you’re brushing too hard (red), too soft (white) and when the correct amount of pressure is applied (green). A satin finish, available in black onyx, alabaster white and rose quartz colours, offers superb grip even with the icky concoction of toothpaste and water to compete with. This toothbrush is, and it means to go on, clean. No more rubberised grip on the handle that will stain blue from toothpaste over time, or silicone bits which clog up. This toothbrush has departed from the sterile mould, as Braun have created something that actually looks stylish whilst also being ergonomic. With a rethinking of the toothbrush head design, 3D teeth tracking using artificial intelligence and a companion App to run on your smartphone, it should by all accounts be referred to as a ‘smart brush’ well that is if it's deserving of such an accolade. ‘Our best electric toothbrush yet’ is the opening line from Oral-B for their shiny and all new iO Series 9 toothbrush. ![]()
