Philips Sonicare has long been (arguably) the best electric toothbrush. Does adding Bluetooth make it better? AppleInisider checks out the Sonicare DiamondClean 9300 model (and even compares it to the 9500 and 9700) to find out.

AppleInsider Sounds like the Bluetooth is just a timer, it doesn’t have any kind of sensors telling toothbrush where it is in the mouth or if something was really cleaned or not, it just sees toothbrush is on and to brush each section for 20 seconds. So why have Bluetooth? Any toothbrush can have a timer, what does the Bluetooth do?
Its not a game changer. Its a GIMMICK
Oral b works better than Sonicare. Due to the fact that Oral b round brushes adapt to the teeth better than sonicare. The only thing you gotta do with an Oral b is to hold it over a tooth surface.

How can you track on the app if you have two people using same handle different brushes or will it show the two usages? Ie if you and your wife use one handle with different brush heads
I had mine for 2 years. The toothbrush is really nice but the app is horrible and full of bugs. It never connects and never shows where the toothbrush is in the mouth. It's amazing how horrible the the apps 2 years later.
Mother in law got the whole family the 9700 series on sale . I noticed the brush heads go out eventually virtually not physically by that it makes it seem like a your battery on the device is not charging simply change the head on ur device and you will get the 3 bars of power instead of 1 on the last few uses on your head. What I do is I use the same head that is apparently "old" and I throw it on a different device in the house "my lady's handle" and it doesn't recognise that the old head is used up so it go's back to full power by default.
Wow I have a Phillips sonic this is great and thank you for taking the time to do this produce review.
Highly recommend Engive toothbrush heads replacement. It fit my Soniacare toothbrush very well.
Penny Li do you have a link? I just bought the 9750
I hope it helped. Thank you.
Outstanding review, best I’ve seen.
Hi, Just having problems with my iPhone connecting via Bluetooth... My iPhone doesn't like my car anymore either! I'm annoyed yet again with my iPhone, but will persevere...
for APP: The location sensor tracks your coverage--> if yellow part means clean and white part means missing to brush part ??
3:45 i can't seem to find any button??
We bought it, downloaded the app, and do not see the coverage feature, just the timer. I called Philips and they're clueless. I figured I'll check here before returning it.
Thank you.
My app looks very diffrent from that one and it doesnt show me the 3d teeth, even though i have the same model of toothbrush, Can anyone help with this?
Can you use the tongue head on this one? Or only on the 9500?
I just bought one like this but the $30 version. I put it near my boom touch speaker and it made a loud buzzing noise that sounded like the noise the brush made but amplified which makes me wonder if this brush can be modded to play music. I may try that when this thing kicks the bucket.
"My Sonicare won't recharge, now I gotta brush my teeth like a neanderathal!"
Straight up sounds like Chris from family guy...
Yoooooo 🤣🤣🤣
Do the toothbrush and app detect cavities?
I Googled can I use my HSA for Sonicare. There is a form to be completed by your Dentist and you can use your HSA.
Setting goals for brushing teeth... Now I've heard it all! Not sure I need one, but thanks for the great review!
Goals are essentially a way of "gamifying" the experience. By creating goals, streaks, etc it gives people more incentive to keep going. Similar to those on the Apple Watch to get people to stand or exercise. It is proven to work a subtle aspect to it. Custom goals can also detail things people wish to improve. Such as focusing on a certain area in the mouth. The app will allocate additional time to these "goal zones" to make sure they get properly cleaned, without neglecting the rest of the mouth. -Andrew
Thank you for the clarification about "gamifying" the experience. I'm a bit old school in that I've taken care of my teeth through my 47 years on earth without the need for games (and I've yet to have a single cavity), but if this electronic toothbrush helps the younger generation avoid cavities, then such makes it worthwhile in the end. Regardless, I appreciate your excellent review.

You forgot to mention the 9400 model.
I love mine! Thanks!
In Nederland krijg je er maar 1 borstel bij ipv 3 zoals ze hier laten zien
Just bought 1. Watching reviews until it gets here next Wednesday !!
Can two people share the same Diamondclean Smart (using seperate brush heads and seperate app accounts)?
Yes, why not
I have the phillips sonicare 9300 diamond clean smart.
What is this app’s name?
Been using these for over 10 years and came to conclusion that wireless charging ruins your battery as i went though at least 8 of them; fixed, rebuilt, replaced internal components and batteries.
And you kept buying them for 10 years.
Been using the DiamonClean since 2014, still running good. Maybe not as powerful as its first day. But still holds charge for almost 2 weeks without any other problem.
TuuuLe same
Just got a new one my last diamond clean didn’t even last a full year. At least it was under warranty. It was the battery as well
I thought Sonic Technology only produces 31000 strokes per minute? 62000 is the number of strokes per cycle.
No it is 62000 movements per minute.
That's the older model. The one without the pressure sensor
Is the case a charging case? If so, how do you charge the case?
The case has to be connected to a usb charger in order to charge. The case itself can’t be charged.
I have this. But I still prefer the manual, really. I feel that my toothbrush routine is not complete without my manual brush. I only use it twice a week.
I thought you were supposed to brush kinda hard 😳
Sounds like the Bluetooth is just a timer, it doesn’t have any kind of sensors telling toothbrush where it is in the mouth or if something was really cleaned or not, it just sees toothbrush is on and to brush each section for 20 seconds. So why have Bluetooth? Any toothbrush can have a timer, what does the Bluetooth do?
The Bluetooth connects it to your phone
Anna Grace I know.
I finally bought one. So the toothbrush can detect where it’s positioned in your mouth the same way a Nintendo wii remote can detect how it’s oriented. Works alright, not perfect, but it can tell if you’re brushing back or the front of teeth but can’t tell if you’re brushing the top or bottom of your front teeth
@@annagrace7432 really??
Oral B has had Bluetooth enabled toothbrushes for over 4 years now...I figured Sonicare was right there with them. Guess they’re catching up now.
Sonicare has just focused on being the better of the two! :-p Maybe OralB needs to catch up! 😝 -Andrew
AppleInsider 15 years of using Oral B and having my dentist tell me to get out of her chair I’m not making her any money...seems like a good testimony for Oral B to me. 😉
@@chuc98 lol
Jesus christ. I heard bleach instead of bluetooth ar first 😂
hate the cup
This toothbrush has an outrageously bad "privacy" policy. The app, and therefore all the "smart" features, will not run unless the user signs off on unrestricted archiving, use, and third-party sharing of all the information the the app and and toothbrush gather, and this information is detailed and ongoing. There's no ability to opt out of this without disconnecting the app from the toothbrush and giving up the "smart" features that you paid for. This policy is far more uncompromising and intrusive than those for other devices like Fitbit smart watch, Withings health devices, or Apple Watch.
Agree Chris, we all to often "trust" apps since we are so busy with other things. But we need to aware of our information being siphoned off without our knowledge. Battery life issues, no warranty help from Philips, etc.
I just went back to trying to manually brush 3X a day, salt water rinse, and floss after each meal. A little more inconvenient but no tech issues to bother with. And my GUM brand brush was $3.95.
Wish I knew this before I just purchased one but u know what I wasn't going to use the app anyway like what for? I just paid the extra for the extra clean it's meant to be better than the rest
Hooooooo security......😂

Completely unnecessary product. Great review though, i see you’ve improved a lot with your confidence and vocalisation since you first started. Keep it up my good sir ✌🏽
wut. this isn't apple
yet!
LOL! My thoughts, exactly!
Thus guys a toothbrush fanatic lmao
Looks like a marketing gimmick, to trick people out of their money.. I'd be shocked if these high tech features actually yielded better results over much cheaper electric toothbrushes..
Do people really need bluetooth toothbrushes? Like seriously come on.
DrMacintosh need? No. Want? Yeah why not
Blue Tooth Marketing 101
What a dumb design why would I want to charge my toothbrush using a glass? The older charger was a better choice with the toothbrush standing upright and taking less pace on my bathroom counter. Warning the charging case doesn't come with all model good luck traveling with that huge/heavy glass, what a ridiculous design.
It’s hurts my gum and teeth so much

no. i'm never using an app to brush my god damn teeth. Do you need an App to wipe your ass too?
Obviously.
NO! Anyway I use OralB.
Oral B is archaic system, rotator. Bad system for 2018.
As another commentator stated, we don’t need Bluetooth nor apps to brush our teeth. This is exactly like needing smart toilet paper in order to determine if our asses have been satisfactorily cleaned of all fecal matter residue. Provide the best motors, materials, batteries, chargers and warranty and let humans use technology rather than be slaves to it.
I Get Buckets "Slaves" of technology? Wtf? This bluetooth feature allows you to brush your teeth much better, this improves your health. Why wouldn't you want this? (Price aside).
Yes. You read correctly.
I Get Buckets Please explain.
Oclean One is fat better and far far far cheaper...
But its made in China.
@@christianjensen3355 and where do u think is phillips sonicare made? :D
@@fanATIc666x Probably China, but at least most of my money (minus production costs) will go into Phillips' tax hiding somewhere and not directly to China like it would if I purchased from the Chinese company! :P
"Is adding blue-tooth to a toothbrush something that actually needed DOING*?" Yeah, time to turn off your review immediately after that.
