Where are the differences?
Let's compare the Pro 1* and the Smart* of Oral-B and take a look at the differences.
Cleaning
Some electric toothbrushes have several different cleaning modes. Although both electric toothbrushes offer you this advantage, the number differs. So with 5 cleaning modes, Oral-B Smart* gives you more options. With the Oral-B Pro 1 you can only choose between 3 cleaning modes.
Some devices additionally offer a choice of intensity levels. Here there is no difference in the two products. In both cases there is only one intensity level.
There is no difference in the technology used. Both toothbrushes use a Rotating Technology.
Pressure control
Too much pressure with the toothbrush can harm the teeth and especially the gums. Also, too much pressure affects the cleaning result. To remedy this, many electric toothbrushes offer an imprint control. At this point there is a difference in favor of the Oral-B Smart*. Because this toothbrush offers you a sensor for for an imprint control.
Timer and cleaning time
Both electric toothbrushes have an integrated timer for the correct brushing time. The time for the optimal brushing time is 120 seonds for both devices. There is also a split timer at 30 seonds for both toothbrushes. The timer works for the two devices with vibration.
App & Smartphone Connection
There is a difference in the app, because only for the Oral-B Smart you get an app. An app can give you some beneficial features for your brushing time and brushing technique.
For the app for Oral-B Smart, you get Coaching.
Battery
There is a difference in battery life in favor of the Oral-B Smart, which offers a battery life of up to 14 days. With the Oral-B Pro 1, the battery life is up to 10 days. A longer battery life is particularly interesting for travel, where power is not always available. However, this is still a problem with very few toothbrushes. Some devices even offer a travel case with a built-in charging function.
