LG Launches Wearable Air Purifier in the UAE

Published

on

Following its unveiling at IFA 2020, LG Electronics (LG) has today launched its personal air solution in the UAE market – the LG PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier. LG’s PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier has been in development since 2017 – undergoing three years of extensive R&D and product testing.

Within its research, LG identified common challenges for mask-wearers, including regulating air flow without becoming too warm or claustrophobic and having glasses periodically fog up. Additionally, as people become more conscious of the environment, the need for a more sustainable solution was clear.

The PuriCare Wearable has been ergonomically designed, based on extensive facial shape analysis. The device fits snugly around the user’s face, minimizing air leakage around the nose and chin area. The face guard also features a silicone pad which seeks to promote comfortable fit for hours on end and reduce the fogging up of glasses, while the inner cover prevents internal contamination.

To deliver a new level of personal protection, the LG PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier harnesses two H13 HEPA filters, which work to prevent up to 99.95% of harmful airborne matter, such as viruses, bacteria and common allergens from entering the wearer’s respiratory system. LG’s patented Respiratory Sensor detects the cycle and volume of the user’s breathing, automatically adjusting the PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier’s DUAL Fans accordingly via three-speed settings. The dynamic fans are able to speed up when the wearer is inhaling, and slow down to reduce resistance upon exhaling.

The LG PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier comes with a built-in, rechargeable 820 battery which can deliver up to eight hours of operation at low speed and two hours on the highest setting. To recharge, users simply need to connect the device to a power source using the provided USB C cable. For added convenience, key components such as the filters, inner cover, face guard, ear straps and strap extenders are also easy to remove and replace – extending usability.

Coming soon, LG will also release a unique case for the PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier,  which deploys the company’s UVnano sanitization technology to eliminate 99.99 percent of germs in just 30 minutes, using UV-C LED lights. The case can also remove moisture from internal components caused by the wearer’s breath, charge the device from empty to full in just two hours and send notifications to the user’s smartphone via the LG ThinQ app when filters need replacing.

“The introduction of the PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier to the UAE market represents our continued commitment to not only championing innovation, but also bringing advanced technology to market at rapid pace. While this device could not be any timelier demand for portable protection and access to clean air is not new. For years, we have seen growing interest and concern for maintaining good air quality – which is why we have continued to expand our PuriCare lineup. We are seeing interest in sectors ranging from government and B2B organizations, right through to everyday consumers. We are proud to empower people across the UAE to breathe better air, while remaining comfortable,” said Hongju Jeon, President, LG Electronics Gulf.

The LG PuriCare Wearable Air Purifier is now available in the UAE at select Carrefour, Sharaf DG, and ACE stores for the retail price of AED 699. Two H13 HEPA Filters are provided in the box, with additional filters available for the retail price of AED 59.

Honeywell Air Touch V1 Air Purifier Review: Clean Air Made Simple

Published

on

The Honeywell Air Touch V1 is a compact and efficient air purifier, perfect for smaller spaces. With its impressive performance, quiet operation, and user-friendly features, it’s a valuable addition to any home or office.

Design
The Honeywell Air Touch V1 sports a sleek, modern design. It features a cylindrical chassis with a white upper motor housing and a light grey bottom housing equipped with intake air vents. The top part of the purifier houses the air exhaust vents and a touch-sensitive control panel. Measuring 216 x 216 x 322 mm and weighing 1.5 kg, it’s easy to move around. The Honeywell logo is prominently displayed on the front side.

Build Quality
Built with high-quality materials, the Honeywell Air Touch V1 is solid and durable, ensuring longevity and reliability. The upper and bottom housings can be easily separated by turning a handle on the bottom panel, allowing for straightforward filter replacement.

Features
User-friendly and easy to operate, the Honeywell Air Touch V1 features three fan speed settings, allowing you to adjust the purification intensity based on your needs. It includes a filter change indicator that alerts you when it’s time to replace the filters. The filters typically last for about 9,000 hours, or approximately one year of regular use. The device consumes 12W of power and operates on a voltage range of 100-240V~, 50/60Hz.

Performance
The Honeywell Air Touch V1 boasts a three-stage filtration system, including a Pre-Filter, a high-grade H13 HEPA filter, and an Activated Carbon filter. This combination effectively removes airborne pollutants, allergens, and odours.

The HEPA filter captures particles as small as 0.3 microns, including dust, pollen, and pet dander, making it ideal for allergy sufferers. The activated carbon filter helps eliminate odours from cooking or pets, enhancing the overall freshness of the indoor environment.

With a Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) of up to 152 m³/h, the purifier effectively cleans areas up to 235 square feet (22 square meters). It operates quietly at a noise level of just 29 dB/A at low speed, making it suitable for use in bedrooms and offices. Even at higher speeds, the noise remains manageable, allowing for comfortable use throughout the day and night.

App Connectivity
One downside of the Honeywell Air Touch V1 is that it does not support app connectivity. Honeywell does provide the Air Touch app, available on major mobile platforms, but it only supports connectivity with higher-end air purifiers from the company. App connectivity would be beneficial for checking indoor air quality before and after use. However, given the price point of the Air Touch V1, this limitation is understandable.

Verdict
The Honeywell Air Touch V1 is an excellent choice for those seeking a compact and effective air purifier. Its quiet operation and easy-to-use features make it a valuable addition to any home or office. While the filter life may be shorter than some larger models, the overall value and performance of the Air Touch V1 make it a worthwhile investment.

Price: AED 229
