I bought this toothbrush in the Black Edition and of the optics, it looks really great! A real eye-catcher in the bathroom. I had read the Braun Pulsonic Slim and therefore a comparison. The Philips is definitely reads than the Pulsonic, but that could be because the Philips 31,000 instead of 27,000 vibrations has. The cleaning performance do not skin off your feet, because I expected more after all the advertising promises. For my objective sense the Brown cleans even better. But what bothers me most is the many gaps in the Philips, where really nice settles the toothpaste and then just looks really disgusting when Black Edition after a while. Since then help out the old manual toothbrush. The case and the charging of glass are naturally very chic, but do not justify the high price tag! I forgive only one star because the price-performance ratio is not appropriate at this toothbrush.
