Key Differences

Understandably there are differences between the two models.

However, to make a direct comparison between the two is made more complicated, because there are 3 different versions of the DiamondClean Smart and 2 variants of the DiamondClean.

These different variants are explained in detail in our DiamondClean Smart hands on review and our DiamondClean review.

To keep things simple, I will compare the DiamondClean (the more common, non wireless charging edition to what I believe to be the best value and our recommended DiamondClean Smart variant the 9500 series.

• The DiamondClean Smart is available in Black, White, Pink, and Silver.  The DiamondClean is available in Amethyst, Black, White, Pink and Rose Gold.
• The DiamondClean Smart comes with 5 cleaning modes (Clean, White+, Deep Clean+, Gum Health, and Tongue Care) compared to the 5 cleaning modes on the DiamondClean (Clean, White, Sensitive, Gum Care and Deep Clean).
