Great Electric Tooth Brush But Sometime Down Sides
Overall I enjoy this tooth brush a lot. I was using the iO Series 7 but the downside is they only make two different brush heads for the iO so you can’t enjoy the full experience of changing brush heads and trying them out. I bought this and decided it would be a good alternative for the iO to enjoy other brush heads. A couple downfalls is that to start, it is extremely loud compared to the iO but that doesn’t bother me a ton. I dislike that with this brush it doesn’t light up green telling you that you are applying enough pressure and only lights up red if you apply too much. I thought when it said it has a 360° ring and pressure sensor it would do that. Completely wrong. The other thing I don’t like is with the iO you can start brushing and the app tracks everything so you can place your phone down while you brush (Be sure not to let it lock or you may lose everything) With this it requires you to place your face in a circle and select what hand you brush with so it can tell where you are brushing but once you put your phone down it has no idea where you are brushing. It’s almost like it’s not Bluetooth capable unless the camera is facing you. I’m brushing the top left quadrant and the app is saying I’m brushing my front, then quickly changes to bottom right ... it’s everywhere. This explains why Oral B normally provides a mount to put on your mirror aimed at you with your phone in it to properly track your brushing. With this double pack, it doesn’t provide that so you are stuck holding your phone out right aimed at you straight on which doesn’t help because you tend to move when you brush or even holding your arm straight out for two minutes or more and so the app does a horrible job at tracking where you are brushing.
