Philips Japan's battery-powered electric toothbrush "Philips" is the 7th installment of "#Cute gadgets found by uncle", which introduces cute digital goods that I found that reacts to cute things even though I am an old man in my 40s. Introducing "One" (Philips One, model number: HY1100). As previously reported, Philips Japan will hold a "Philips Oral Care New Product Launch" on the 2nd and announced that it will release Philips One on November 19th (Friday). Philips Japan is developing the "Sonic Care" series of electric toothbrushes and mouthwashes, but Philips One will be developing as a new brand. It is a product that aims to expand the spread of electric toothbrushes mainly for beginners and young people. The sales channels are EC sites such as the major web stores "Amazon.co.jp" and "Rakuten Ichiba", and home electronics mass retailers nationwide. The set is 3,410 yen, and the 2-piece replacement brush (brush head, model number: BH1022) is 1,320 yen. It will be on sale soon, so it is currently on sale by pre-order. Since this Philips One was provided by the manufacturer this time, we will review the opening, operation method, usability, etc. The front of the package. From the left, "Coral", "Mango", "Mint", "Midnight Blue" When you hold the package in your hand, the description on the back of the package is not a box type, but a simple one, and the color variations of the main body are "Coral" and "Mango". The colors match "Mint" and "Midnight Blue". The back of the package describes the main features and accessories in Japanese and English. If you have 4 colors, you will get a very pop and colorful impression. Both colors are rare for toothbrushes. The travel case side contains an instruction manual and a dry battery. The toothbrush body side is difficult to open. The package is a type that can be opened by tearing along the dotted line on the back, but the travel case side is easy to open. On the toothbrush body side, the constricted part of the brush head is thin and difficult to open. I opened both coral and mint, but neither could open the toothbrush body cleanly. I hope that the dotted line at the constricted part of the brush head will be improved. The travel case contains an instruction manual and a AAA battery, so be sure to take it out. Set of contents Front side of instruction manual with warranty Back side of instruction manual with warranty ・ Handle (main body) ・ Brush head (attached to handle) ・ Travel case ・ AAA batteries x 2 (1 set on handle, One spare) ・ Instruction manual with warranty These are all the contents. The instruction manual with warranty is written in Japanese on the front side and in English on the back side. Although it is a single sheet of paper, it has the impression that it is easy to understand and carefully written even for those who are new to electric toothbrushes, such as basic usage, installed functions, and how to brush teeth. When you hold the toothbrush body in your hand, the brush head can be easily attached and detached. You can enjoy the combination of colors. The size of the main body is about 202 x 16.5 x 21 mm, and the weight without batteries is about 27 g with the brush head attached. The brush head is designed so that it can be easily inserted and removed by hand. The guideline for replacing the dry battery and brush head is about 3 months, and replacing the brush head when the battery runs out will prevent you from forgetting to replace it. In addition, one brush head is included in the package, but the second and subsequent brush heads are sold separately. Like the handle (main body), the brush head is available in four color variations, but it is not necessary to match the colors, but rather the manufacturer wants you to enjoy the color combination. I removed the bottom cap at the bottom of the handle. Batteries already set in the handle and spare batteries The grooved bottom cap at the bottom of the AAA battery body stored inside the handle can be opened by twisting it with a fingernail or a coin. For waterproof specifications, a black packing is attached to the inside of the bottom cap. It may be a little hard to open due to the suction of the packing, so in that case, do not try to open it with your nails, but open it with a coin. Compared to Philips Japan's conventional Sonicare series electric toothbrushes (hereinafter referred to as the Sonicare series), the handle is considerably thinner. As for the size, it is about the size of one AAA battery as shown in the picture above. In addition, although there is a description at the bottom of the handle, the handle corresponds to the waterproof performance of IPX7. Notation on the cover of the travel case The travel case, which can be taken out with a single touch by opening the lid, has a lid only on the top, which is also very stylish like the handle. Inside the lid is a sticker with an illustration of how to take it out. As shown in the illustration, if you open the lid and lightly press the bottom of the handle, the brush head part will pop out and you can take it out. When storing, set the brush head so that the bristles of the brush head face down (inside the travel case), then firmly store the handle part in the travel case and then close the lid. Even if you put it in a travel case, it's a size that you can easily carry around. There is only one button on the handle to turn the power on and off, so you won't get lost in operation. The frequency of one minute of Philips One is about 13,000 strokes, which is about one-third of the 31,000 strokes of the conventional Sonicare series. Therefore, in the Sonicare series, brush the brush head against the teeth, but in Philips One, you can brush it in the same way as a normal hand brush. By the way, the Sonicare series feels a lot of vibration in the mouth, so some people need to get used to it when they start using it, but the Philips One is also characterized by the fact that it is hard to feel discomfort from the beginning. In terms of other functions, it is equipped with a "cad pacer function" that notifies the time division every 30 seconds by a change in vibration, and a "smart timer function" that automatically stops in 2 minutes to prevent over-polishing. ing. These functions do not need to be set in particular, and they operate in the default (initial value) state. When I actually use it, I get the impression that it is an electric toothbrush that can be used in much the same way as conventional hand brushes. As I got used to it, I could polish it so that it would press against my teeth like the Sonicare series, so I felt that I could start with Philips One and then step up to the Sonicare series. In addition, the size including the travel case is good, and you can brush it at any time by putting it in a bag or pouch and carrying it around. Not only for the main target group such as beginners and young people, but also for those who have used electric toothbrushes and have violent vibrations and are not very comfortable to carry, please try it. It may be good to use the conventional Sonicare series for home use and the Philips One for going out.
