Ranked #3 in Best Electric Toothbrushes

Philips Sonicare 7100

4.4

4 sources$189.07as of Aug 1

At 31,000 brush strokes per minute, the Philips Sonicare 7100 cleans well, and it includes the essentials: a pressure sensor and a 2-minute timer. TechRadar praised the effective cleaning and stylish design while noting the smart features are basic next to premium models. Reviewers also highlighted the long battery life and comfortable handling, with replacement brush heads flagged as costly. It fits people who want reliable daily cleaning without smart connectivity; anyone who wants full smart integration should consider higher-tier models.

Strengths

— Effective cleaning performance with 31,000 brush strokes per minute
— Includes pressure sensor and 2-minute timer for proper brushing habits
— Good battery life lasting up to 3 weeks with regular use

Watch-outs

— Smart features are limited compared to higher-end models
— Replacement brush heads can be expensive
— Charging is slow even in the included USB travel case

SURI 2.0

4.6

4 sources$134.99as of Aug 1

The SURI 2.0 is a sonic brush built around repairability and quiet running rather than app features: an aluminium body SURI refurbishes instead of replacing, plant-based heads it takes back for recycling, wireless charging and a UV-C travel case. Battery life is the standout at more than 30 days of twice-daily brushing. T3 scored it 5 out of 5, Tom's Guide and Tech Advisor 4.5 out of 5, and GQ 9 out of 10. The pressure sensor is the weak spot, since it takes a firm push before it reacts.

Strengths

— 30+ day battery life with twice-daily use
— Quiet operation compared to rotating electric brushes
— Magnetic wall mount prevents toothpaste crust on sink

Watch-outs

— Pressure sensor requires firm pressure to activate
— Brush heads may be too soft for some users
— Replacement brush heads cost £8.98 for two heads on six-month subscription
