Oclean X10 Smart Electric Toothbrush Review
There was a moment not too long ago when having many gadgets to travel with wasn’t always as good as it seemed, thanks to the different chargers we would need.
As USB-C becomes a charging standard, travellers will once again be able to bring all the tech they need and leave the pile of chargers and cables at home.
For this reason, I was keen to test and review the new X10 Smart Electric Toothbrush from Oclean.
The brand boasts some 260 patents for electric toothbrushes, won numerous design awards and, with the X10, has an easy-to-power electric toothbrush for travelling with.
Oclean X10 Smart Electric Toothbrush// Features
Power is why you will consider adding the X10 to your travel wash kit. This Smart Electric toothbrush has a concealed USB-C port in its base behind a water-tight shield.
A 3.5-hour charge will give the internal and un-swappable battery 60 days of power before the next, which is impressive given its not only the motor but also the digital display its supports.
Under the power/start button is a small yet easily readable 25x16mm display that guides you through five main modes; Clean, White, Massage, Sensitive and Polish.
Each of these has five additional speed settings resulting in 25 mode combinations. An up/down rocker button below the display is used to navigate the modes.
Power & Performance
The main draw for travellers to the X10 toothbrush will be the USB-C charging and not needing another charger in the case.
Inside the handle is a 1,200mAh battery that only requires a 5V input; almost any USB-C charger/cable you currently travel with could deliver this.
Oclean states the X10 will deliver 60-days of power based on the average use of two brushes daily. I’ve used the X10 for 32 days and still have around 40% battery.
The battery performance is impressive at new, and I hope it can continue to deliver after a year or more.
Fortunately, after two trips during its review, physically at least, the Oclean was still as good as new and easy enough to remove the brush head to fit into a wash bag. A plastic protective cap is included to keep the bristles clean and in good order when travelling.
Smart & Easy to Use
Everything is controlled and monitored on the X10, and there’s no app support. The toothbrush turns on automatically when you pick it up or by the power button.
It took me less than a minute to familiarise myself with the controls without needing the instruction manual. A single rocker button is used to select from the five main cleaning options using the top half, and the bottom sets the speed.
Once you’ve finished brushing, either a smiley emoji says ‘good job’, or a mouth graphic appears and suggests which area you need to spend some more time on.
The X10 smart toothbrush divides your brushing into four quarters and allows for 30 seconds each, resulting in a 2-minute clean. At the end of each 30 secs, the X10 give a little pause to the motor, telling you to move on to the next area.
I really liked this feedback.
Oclean X10 Smart Electric Toothbrush// Conclusion
There’s not much to dislike about the X10. It offers good value for money and performs well, although some might consider $99 for a travel toothbrush a step too far.
But it can be used at home!
I prefer the round brush head instead of the diamond, yet I was impressed with the X10s cleaning abilities and feedback through the display and by the short pauses of the motor.
