Description:
Laifen launched its first electric toothbrush, the Laifen Wave, earlier this year, and has now announced a new Titanium version launching at IFA 2024 alongside two new hairdryers.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Laifen has announced it will be showcasing a new, titanium version of the Laifen Wave at IFA 2024, a feat the brand claims will make for the worlds first electric toothbrush made of the high-end, aerospace-grade material.

While rocket ships and automobile components might be the first thing that springs to mind when you think of titanium, its a material also known for its use in the medical field thanks to its non-toxicity and antibacterial properties qualities Laifen cites as key behind this new version of the Laifen Wave .

Additionally, the brand highlights the materials durability and visual appeal as key to driving this new version of the brands first toothbrush, which launched earlier this year at CES 2024 .

The brand is best known for developing one of the best Dyson Supersonic rivals, the Laifen Swift , which launched following a successful Kickstarter campaign back in 2022. Since then, it has released a more affordable version (the Laifen Swift SE) and has announced it will also launch two further hairdryer products at the upcoming consumer tech show in Berlin.

Dance You Outta My Head - Cat Janice

While my personal experience meant I couldnt quite call the Laifen Wave one
of the best electric toothbrushes Ive tried, judging by some of the customer reviews Ive read online its a real love-it-or-hate-it device, with some hailing its superior clean as superior to the likes of Philips and Oral-B, especially at its low price point.

It combines oscillating and sonic technology to deliver one of the deepest cleans Ive experienced from a domestic toothbrush, offering 60-degree oscillation with 66,000 vibrations per minute, but as of writing the jury is still out with dental professionals as to whether thats a good thing on a daily basis.

However, its worth highlighting that YouTuber Anoraker was contacted by
Laifen following his middling review of the unit he was given earlier this year, claiming this batch of devices sent out to media and influencers in January (which included my own review unit) was defective, and also acknowledging issues with the original retail model.

The brand also indicated to Anoraker that a new prototype will be phased into the existing retail stock, which he claims fixed some of the major issues by reducing the power of the preset modes on the device, and also confirmed new toothbrush heads with cushioned backing to prevent some of the jaw-shattering pain caused when you so much as knock your teeth with the head during use.

However, as of the time of writing these heads still arent available in the Laifen store, and as Anoraker highlights, theres no way of telling whether youve received the original retail model of the Laifen Wave itself or the revised prototype. You might also like... Read our full Laifen Wave review
