Good deal – The Philips Sonicare DiamondClean HX9911 White “5-star” electric toothbrush at €149.99 (-16%)

The Philips Sonicare DiamondClean HX9911 electric toothbrush is almost identical to the Philips DiamondClean Smart HX9954/53. It simply comes with the charging glass and the travel case, and “only” has 4 brushing modes.

The Philips Sonicare DiamondClean HX9911 toothbrush is a lighter version of the DiamondClean Smart HX9954/53. It only comes with a charging glass, the charging cable and the travel case. This model only offers one brush head, which makes it lose a star in terms of ease of use. Nevertheless, this toothbrush is a very good connected model. Connected to an application, it provides information to improve your daily brushing.

Strong points

• Automatic brush head recognition.
• Welcome ergonomic development (two buttons).
• Design (beautiful object, pleasant to use).
• Pressure sensing.
• Detection of movements and brushing homogeneity (via the application).
• Information-rich app.

Weak points

• Unintuitive application interface (too much information that could be better classified).
• Expensive brushes to take advantage of smart functions.

NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude the prices of stores whose the VAT policy is not clear (so-called “gray” stores, typically in the case of imports from China).

Alternatively

Sonic technology is renowned for taking better care of teeth and gums than its oscillo-rotating counterpart, but Neopulse wants to go further. When brushing, we felt a real difference with most of the French brand’s competitors: the brush head is fine, reaches all the nooks and crannies and cleans gently thanks to very soft bristles. Above all, the extremely low noise level of the brush must be welcomed, making brushing more pleasant. The display of modes and intensities directly on the handle is appreciable, even if the LED lighting is not always easy to decipher. Finally, we would have liked a “hard” case to carry the Neosonic, as well as the possibility of pausing while brushing, without having to restart a new stopwatch.
