Quip separates itself from competitors by being more travel friendly, battery powered, aesthetically appealing, and prides itself in offering what you need without excess frills in its base model. Its pricing model is significantly more affordable than other name-brand electric toothbrushes, however the power and speed of its movement is - while still adequate at 15,000 brush strokes per minute - substantially below the metrics of a Sonicare electric toothbrush, which claims up to 62,000 brush strokes per minute, or an Oral-B Pro electric toothbrush with 48,000 brush strokes per minute.
