Primarily all cardboard, it pleasing to see is that Oral-B has not opted for the polystyrene trays which are common on some of their cheaper models. In today’s world, there is no need for polystyrene. You need to supply your own USB cable and the Oral-B power adapter must be connected to the mains to pass this power through.

Power of AI with Genius X Electric Toothbrush | Oral-B

expressed herein reflect a judgment made as of this date, and are subject to change without notice. Place these brushes side by side and it is almost impossible to tell the difference between each of them.Both brushes come with thestandard ‘Daily Clean’ mode. They both then have a Sensitive mode. It is only the Pro 3 3000 that has the ‘Whitening’ mode. The oscillating-rotating and pulsating cleaning action that the small round brush heads deliver is proven ( in clinical trials) to be the best and most effective cleaning action. I reiterate this in the battery life section of this review, but the implementation of the in case charging is inferior to Sonicare. Clearly there is a sizeable price difference between these 2 models. But both of these are not your standard toothbrush. You can only select or change modes when the toothbrush is on, which isn’t particularly user-friendly, especially if you’ve already got toothpaste on the brush head.

The iO does not have a recess in the base of the brush handle. The base of the handle has a slight concave design which aligns with the slightly convexed top of the iO’s charging stand. So, both models come with a place to store brush heads, but the compartment with the 9000 is better than the stand offered with the Smart 6. It's a seriously stylish electric toothbrush, too, with a sleek, minimalist design and chic carry case to keep it charged on the go. It's also the quietest electric toothbrush we've tested to date, emitting only a subtle hum.In our tests, it gave a good, thorough clean on the everyday setting, though it's pretty vigorous, so we'd recommend trying out the sensitive mode first to see how you find it; you might not need to try the more intense settings. The brush's well-designed charging case is another highlight worth mentioning and offers a choice of charging options to keep your brush powered up on the move. Battery life isn’t up there with some Sonicare models – you’re looking at a recharge roughly every three weeks – but if you want the latest and greatest toothbrush tech for less, there’s no better buy. The Genius X travel case has a USB port to charge other devices such as a smartphone at the same time as you charge a toothbrush. The iO’s power2go case does not have this USB port. It is worth noting that the iO brush heads cannot be fitted to the Genius X handle and vice versa. The design has changed in such a way that the iO can only use heads designed specifically for this model.

However, performance did improve over time, like the AI was learning how we brush our teeth and adapting how it presented that on the coverage, which is the whole point of AI, surely? Within a week of use, the Genius X began to morph into a truly spatially aware toothbrush and was updating the in-app, on-screen graphic in real time, flashing white where the brush was at work and then turning solid white when it deemed that we had brushed enough. CleaningBUT, one of the biggest flaws of the Smart 5 is the fact that you can’t easily tell what cleaning mode you are using. The Genius resolves this issue to a point with a series of icons that illuminate on the handle when the selected mode is in operation. Of course, none of the AI is worth anything if the performance of the brush head, in combination with the efficiency of the motor, doesn’t combine to produce an all around clean, that’s powerful without being harsh.
