We like what we see. Everything feels premium, as expected. The build quality is still top-notch, and it’s even better now that it’s not oversized. We’ll discuss more in ergonomics. The new mini is still expensive and isn’t as versatile as Ekrin Bantam, which we still believe is the best mini around. It's the definition of simple. Just point the gun at your fleshy target – around an inch away from your skin over whichever muscle you’re trying to loosen or warm up – and hit the trigger for instant relief. From our perspective, another area where the Mini 2 has improved over the Mini 1 is its Bluetooth connectivity. We found this new feature to be particularly useful. The battery is decent on the Mini, with a two and a half hour life. I only needed to charge it once, and it lasted for an entire week’s worth of testing. Charging time was also decent — it took a little under an hour to power the Mini from a low charge to a full one. If your Mini is completely dead, expect a charge time of an hour and twenty minutes.But the big question would be, does the small device also mean a smaller capacity battery? We don’t have the answer to this question yet. We couldn’t find battery capacity information from Therabody.

Serious athletes should look for a high amplitude. Measured in millimetres, this metric shows you how deeply the gun can hit and how powerful it will feel on your body. The punchiest models listed below have an amplitude of 16mm.Our experts at the MH Lab tested the mettle of the best massage guns on the market. And, as the list below shows, they were more than up to the challenge. The Mini is capable of three speeds: 1750, 2100, and 2400 PPM (percussions per minute). This is an acceptable enough range, although competing models like Legiral Le3 Massage Gun have a lot more variety in PPM (at less of an expense). Adjusting the speed is done through a sole button on the side of the device, with three lights indicating the current PPM. The new 2 nd generation mini hasn’t changed, at least not as far as the design goes. In fact, you could easily mistake it for the mini 1. The 2 nd generation Theragun mini how it compares to the 1 st generation mini.

We complained about the mini 1 not having enough attachments. It had the one ball attachment. All other brands equipped their minis with at least 3 well-varied attachments. Even Hypervolt Go 2 had 2 attachments. The mini 1 wasn’t the quietest mini massage gun. Upon using the Mini 2, we personally felt it was a significant upgrade from its predecessor. The percussion range is 2000-3200RPM. The faster percussions make it much harder to stall than mini 2. Ekrin Bantam is tiny but mighty. We simply love it.First, for a 12mm amplitude gun, you can get deep punches if the intensity (percussions per minute) is good enough. But a low stall force means slowed percussions when pressure is applied. This especially happens when you are massaging large muscle groups. Harnessing percussive therapy (basically pummelling muscles to massage the tissue without a masseuse) to speed recovery and help to ease persistent pain, Theragun mini is perfectly portable perfect for kit bags or taking on travels. After testing this new device, we can say that it’s somewhat worth its weight in gold, despite a few caveats. In our opinion, after extensively testing both, it provides better value for money than its predecessor. Stroke Length: The mini, as other Theraguns, shines when it comes to the stroke length. 12mm is best you can get for a mini massage gun and other devices can’t match the mini’s amplitude. While the mini 2 is easy to stall with its 20lbs. stall force, the Go 2 is even weaker. We figure there isn’t more than 10-15lbs. of stall force in the motor. Hyperice doesn’t say how much pressure their device can withstand.
