Scores: Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer 8.2/10 · T3 AireLuxe Hair Dryer 7.3/10
The Supersonic is faster and quieter, and the intelligent heat sensor (measuring temperature 40 times per second) is legitimately protective of hair. The T3 AireLuxe is a very good dryer at $149 less, better suited for thick hair that needs raw wattage. Allure has consistently highlighted the Supersonic as best-in-class; but for the money, the T3 is the more honest value.
