There are of course many similarities between these two brushes and both have some design and features I have not touched upon yet, but I believe are worth noting.

Yes the Oral-B Pro 600 is waterproof and can be used in the shower. It can also be cleaned with water which is useful when you need to get rid of the toothpaste stains. What is the best electric toothbrush? Technically, all of the brushes are the same. None of these brushes will clean the teeth better than the other. Lasting up to 16 days or 66 minutes in our testing, that is an extra 4 days or 16 minutes of usage time. Smart 6 6000 vs Genius 9000 You can learn more about this mode and how it differs but reading our article, Oral-B cleaning modes explained.But, the whitening mode is often overrated. The best part is that Pro 650 is compatible with all Oral B brush heads; therefore, you can always buy a replacement head of your choice, ranging from sensitive, gum care, 3D white, CrossAction, floss Action and more.However, for those who require more detail, we do have a number of comprehensive written comparisons.

Below these sits the battery and charging icons which illuminate when the handle is being charged or when the power is low. Together these alert you to relieve the pressure when brushing. Once relieved the light will go out, the brush motor speed up and the sound change again. The difference between the Oral-B Pro 600 and 2 2000 is on the number of brushing modes, battery life, pressure sensor colour options and the price.Like all other Oral B electric toothbrushes, it comes with a small round brush head, offering a tooth to tooth cleaning action through a 3D cleaning action (rotates, oscillates and pulsates ) perfect technology to remove up to 100% plaque along a gum line.

Here at Electric Teeth to try and give a benchmark for comparison, we like to price the brush over a 3 year period. So whilst it is a useful feature, the fact that it is hard to spot or realise it is even activated is a negative. The Pro 3 3500 has the visible sensor, which is much easier to detect.

The lower third of the brush handle is where you will find the battery status and charging icon. The battery icon will run from green to orange to red as the battery depletes and when charging the battery and charger icon will slowly flash green. The blue bristles within the head will fade over time to a pale blue/translucent colour. This is a cue for you to change. The 600 comes in light Blue or Pink whilst the Pro 2 2000 comes in a dark Blue or Pink. Both have gloss white plastic bodies. And in case of battery life, the Pro 600 comes with a poor performing battery that when fully can hardly stay up to 7 days before recharging whilst, the pro 2 2000 comes with a li-ion battery that goes up to 2 weeks time when fully charged.

There is not much difference in the size and weight all told, only a few grams but sit them side by side and we think that most would prefer the in-hand feeling of the Smart 5. It sounds ridiculous to have such a big discount, but that is the situation and I wouldn’t want you to feel cheated. Particularly when you don’t have to do much in the way of shopping around to get that price. You have to stand in front of your smartphone when brushing and can’t really move as the brush movements need to be seen by the camera. Box contents in either of these brushes is fairly limited in comparison to more premium brushes like the Pro 6000, but included is what you need. The new magnetic driven motor is quieter and the way it works produces a cleaning sensation that is similar, but different.

Like any other toothbrush; you are required to change the brush head after every 3 month time. Battery Life The Smart 5 5000 comes supplied with a more suitable holder too. It sits on a work surface rather than needing to be attached to a wall. It is our opinion is smarter and less unsightly. You just need to pop your phone in it, which takes a couple of seconds compared to the tens of seconds with the genius brush configuration. You phone then sits in portrait or landscape orientation and shows the on-screen timer.
