Dyson's CameraJet toothbrush, which combines a camera-guided water flossing jet with brushing, launched in US stores on September 8 but was pulled within days after buyers reported water leaking into the battery compartment. WIRED found the $499 device, unveiled with fanfare in Paris weeks earlier, is now unavailable for purchase anywhere.
Dyson launched its CameraJet toothbrush, a $499 device combining a camera-guided water flosser with brushing, at a Paris event in early September, then began selling it in US stores on September 8. Within a day, customers reported water leaking into the device's battery compartment, and the product has since become unavailable for purchase, with Dyson declining to explain why.
Dyson introduced the R1 Nurovi Dry, a robotic vacuum that skips mopping capability but includes many premium features found in higher-end combo mop-and-vacuum robots. The device is positioned at a lower price point than typical mop-bots, targeting buyers who only want suction-based cleaning.
Dyson has released three new robot vacuums under its Nurovi line: the R1 Nurovi Dry ($550), R2 Nurovi Wash + Dry ($700), and R3 Nurovi Spot+Scrub UV ($1,200). All three share a redesigned light gray look, lidar-based navigation replacing the previous camera system, and a Twin-Capture system for cleaning both carpets and hard floors, with the top model adding UV stain detection. The R2 will be Costco-exclusive, while the R1 and R3 sell through Dyson's website and other retailers.
Users on Reddit report water leaking into the battery compartment of Dyson's new $499.99 CameraJet toothbrush, with one saying their unit failed within 30 seconds of use. Dyson acknowledged that a small number of early batches may have experienced a component issue, though it says the product's current unavailability online is due to strong demand rather than the defect.
WIRED's Labor Day sales roundup highlights discounts on gadgets its reviewers have personally tested, spanning headphones, vacuums, and AirTags. The standout deal cuts the HP OmniBook Ultra 14 laptop to $1,200, a $700 reduction, offering 32GB of RAM in a machine praised for its OLED display and battery life. The list was refreshed on September 5 with additional vacuum and smart home discounts.
Dyson has released the CameraJet, an electric toothbrush equipped with a 100,000-pixel macro camera and stroboscopic lighting that captures 28 images per second inside the user's mouth. An onboard AI algorithm analyzes the footage to detect issues like gaps between teeth, and the device connects via WiFi and Bluetooth, priced at $499 with two brush heads and a proprietary toothpaste sold separately.
A startup founded by former Nothing employees showcased the Relay Q, a small handheld AI microphone, at IFA Berlin. The device lets users dictate text or issue voice commands quietly by holding down its tip, double-click to send messages, and can detach into a wearable pin that clips to clothing via magnet.
At IFA 2026 in Berlin, Dyson used its 'Dyson Unveiled' event to launch 10 new devices spanning floorcare, air purification and beauty tech. The standout debut is the CameraJet, Dyson's first toothbrush, which uses a built-in camera and AI vision to detect gaps between teeth while brushing, flossing and dispensing mouthwash for $499. The company also showed a more powerful air purifier and other updated home appliances.
At an event near IFA, Dyson unveiled the CameraJet, a combined toothbrush and water flosser equipped with a built-in camera that captures 28 images per second to locate gaps between teeth and gums. Engadget's Mat Smith tried the device on fake teeth at the show, since testing it on real mouths wasn't feasible at a trade event, and found it could complete multiple passes without refilling its notably small water tank.
Dyson debuted a new generation of vacuums at IFA 2026, headlined by the Nurovi robot vacuum series. The R3 Nurovi Spot+Scrub UV ($1,299) adds 'UV-enhanced AI' stain detection, effectively a sequel to this year's Spot+Scrub Ai, while the more budget-friendly R2 Nurovi Wash+Dry ($699) brings vacuum-and-mop functionality at a lower price point. The PencilWash stick vacuum also gets an updated version that now includes a docking station.
At IFA 2026 in Berlin, CNET spotted several standout gadgets, including Miele's Diamond G8 dishwasher, which uses an internal camera and AI to tailor its wash cycles and can run during off-peak electricity hours. Plaud also unveiled the Plaud One, AI-equipped earbuds that transcribe conversations and respond to voice commands, while iRobot showed off a Roomba model built to seal itself against carpet for improved cleaning.
