Key Takeaways
- The HushJet Mini Cool is a powerful handheld fan that outperforms other devices on the market
- The fan is not as quiet as expected, despite being designed to be quiet
- The device has a sleek and slim design, and can last up to six hours on a single charge at its lowest setting
- The HushJet Mini Cool is available for $99.99 at Dyson, Amazon, and Best Buy
Dyson has released its latest handheld fan, the HushJet Mini Cool, a sleek and slim device designed to provide relief from hot and humid weather. Weighing 208 grams, the HushJet Mini Cool is about the same weight as an iPhone 17 Pro and is incredibly easy to use.
The fan features a toggle switch to turn it on and off, and a rocker button to adjust the speed through five different settings, indicated by a strip of five small white LEDs. There is also a Boost Mode that provides an even stronger airflow when the "plus" side of the rocker button is held down.
The HushJet Mini Cool has a cylindrical body that is 38mm in diameter, making it easy to slip into a pocket. The device is bottom-heavy and can be used as a self-standing fan, and Dyson includes an accessory to widen the base and improve its stability.
According to Dyson, the HushJet Mini Cool can last up to six hours on a single charge at its lowest setting, although it died after 62 minutes at its highest speed. The remaining battery life is displayed using the fan's five white LEDs when it is turned off.
While the HushJet Mini Cool is not as quiet as expected, it is still a powerful device that outperforms other handheld fans on the market. Dyson claims to have engineered the fan to be quiet, with a press release stating that the company has "lowered frequencies, eliminated high-pitched whirring, and silenced the sound of whining motors." However, the fan still produces a high-pitched whine, particularly at higher speeds.
In comparison to other handheld fans, such as the Nitecore izzCool 10 Pro, the HushJet Mini Cool is more powerful and has a longer battery life. However, it is also louder, particularly at higher speeds. The fan is available for $99.99 at Dyson, Amazon, and Best Buy.
