Gadgets of the week: Dreame L10S Ultra, Oral B iO Series 9, OPPO F31 Pro+ 5G and iPhone Air

Dreame L10S Ultra

The L10S Ultra from Dreame is an outstanding robot vacuum cleaner washer which collects dust automatically and further goes on to mop, clean and dry for a brilliant complete clean. Setting up the device and connecting to the DreameHome app took me about 30 minutes  but once On, the L10S Ultra does everything by itself once it automatically maps your floors using AI navigation. Powerful 5300Pa suction helps to remove all dust particles, debris, hair and other particles with ease. The ingenious system has Dual rotary mops which spin at 180RPM under firm pressure to thoroughly scrub floors. A large 2.5L water tank covers upto almost 2200 Sq. Ft for a thorough job. The L10S Ultra is so smart that it even cleans and dries the mops by itself after use. I was able to  get L10S Ultra to create multiple maps for every room in every floor of my house seamlessly. AI powered navigation is effective and efficient not missing spots like humans do, while the Auto-Empty system empties dirt into a dust bag for easy disposal. The Dreame L10S Ultra is a marvellous cleaning device ideal for every home! ₹44,999.

Oral B iO Series 9

Oral-B’s iO series 9 electric toothbrush is hands down the best one I’ve ever used! The incredible iO9 is ultra easy to set up and recharge and once connected to the Oral B iO app lets you brush and clean your teeth and gums in the best possible way. There are 7 clean modes available which can be viewed through the coloured interactive display to track and modify your brushing methods to achieve optimal cleaning. The iO pressure sensor signals whether I’m brushing too hard/soft or just right while a 2 min quadrant timer ensures I clean my teeth equally for sufficient time. The brush charges fully in 3 hours (per charge lasted me for about 8 days). After 2 weeks of using the iO9 my teeth were cleaner with almost zero plaque and remarkably healthier gums compared to my previous manual brushing (I do wish I had discovered iO9 earlier). Oral-B’s iO 9 is an essential investment for good oral health and I strongly recommend it for everyone! ₹16,499.

OPPO F31 Pro+ 5G

OPPO’s F31 Pro+ 5G is a super durable smartphone with anti-fall tech (IP 69+IP68+IP66 water/dust resistance + damage-proof 360° Armour body) and a large battery (7000mAh with 80W SuperVOOC charging).

On usage the phone is great for daily use with a vivid 17.27cm FHD+ 120Hz display that’s ideal for multitasking, content/media consumption and gaming. The rear 50MP camera system takes good, sharp pics and video in most lighting conditions while the 32MP selfie cam is perfect for pics. Battery life is exceptional (about 36-40 hrs on regular use), while the durability here is top notch letting me use the device without a case and in any environment without worrying.
