Review on 🦷 Experience Superior Dental Care with Philips Sonicare DiamondClean Smart 9700 Electric Toothbrush – Lunar Blue HX9957/51 by Jessi Hodges

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Overall a very good toothbrush, a bit overpriced

I have been using Sonicare toothbrushes for over 10 years. So, having to get a new one, I decided to try the newest and most expensive one. The first thing that struck me when I received it was that the packaging was excellent. It screamed premium premium toothbrush. I was very impressed but the packaging is spot on and I was hoping this toothbrush would be as great as the packaging. So the design of the grip that makes up the main part is similar to any other Sonicare I've had. It's a good maid, but like all sound devices, there's a chance you'll damage the mechanical part if you drop it and land on a protruding metal part. So be careful not to drop it, I hope it's expensive. The case itself is also well made. I love how they built the cable into the case, unlike previous cases where wireless charging was built in. The only thing I have is that I only have two places to place attachments. Now that they have a multi-head system, just two slots doesn't seem like enough. Now it wouldn't be such a big problem if they didn't switch to thin plastic to protect the tips. It used to be the hard plastic protective covers on the new brush heads. Since I travel a lot, it's a problem not taking extra nozzles with me, except for the two that fit in the suitcase. New flimsy disposables don't stick well to the brush heads. It looks like they should include a small storage case for extra attachments. Working with a brush is even easier than before. One of the nice features is the automatic selection when connecting the nozzle. It's not what I need on a toothbrush, but it's nice. You can manually select different modes at any time. The app itself and Bluetooth are what you really pay extra for. Well, that's something that changes the rules of the game, I can't say yes. It's good for keeping track of where you're brushing and helps you ensure you're pressing and picking at the right angle. As for me, most of the time I'm lazy to take my phone to the bathroom or to get my phone when I forgot to take it with me. As well as when he brushes his teeth well. Yes it is, but I don't think it's any better than my original DiamondClean. I had to deduct one star due to lack of space for all the cleaning heads they now have and the overall price. So if you're looking for the latest and greatest toothbrush and don't mind spending a little more, then go for it. Overall a great system. If you don't want to shell out the extra cash for a smart toothbrush, then other Sonicare will do the trick.
