No pressure sensor listed90 days per AAA · travel case~$85 over 3 years

The Philips One runs on a single AAA for up to 90 days and ships with a travel case, which is most of its argument. Its heads are cheap at $4.98 each but fit only Philips One handles, not other Sonicares. Philips rates it at 13,000 microvibrations a minute and does not call it sonic.

Pressure sensor and ADA Seal

No pressure sensor.

Where these figures come from

Every figure is the maker’s own, from its US product page, spec sheet or store, and the ADA listing comes from the ADA’s own site. A figure the maker does not publish is left out rather than estimated. The three-year cost, gum-safety and travel chips are worked out from those figures here.
