Oral-B iO Series 9

The top of the iO line for users who want AI-powered brushing feedback, a full-color display, and app connectivity. CNET notes the iO series has five brush modes — more than most competitors — and the 9 adds the most comprehensive smart tracking.

$150-$220
Pros
  • AI-powered brushing map tracks coverage across all tooth zones
  • Full-color interactive display shows mode and battery
  • Five cleaning modes including whitening and super sensitive
  • Magnetic drive system for smooth, quiet operation
  • Premium travel case included
Cons
  • Expensive — hard to justify vs. Pro 1000 for cleaning performance alone
  • Battery life still only ~2 weeks
  • App required to unlock full value of smart features
  • iO replacement heads are costly at scale
  • Many users find smart features gimmicky after initial novelty
Why we recommend it

Most people don't need this, and Reddit will tell you the Pro 1000 cleans just as well. But if you're a data-driven person who actually wants to improve brushing technique, the iO9's AI coaching is the most capable Oral-B has ever built.

The iO has five brush modes, whereas most electric toothbrushes seem to have three or four.
