It removes the carbon brushes that wear and allows higher speeds in a smaller unit — and on this site it is a $47 feature, not a premium one: five products name it, and three publish the same 110,000 RPM.
Five products here name a brushless motor on their own listing. Three state the same figure — 110,000 RPM — and all three are air stylers with a price: the oudim at $47, the StyleVibe at $94 and the 7MAGIC at $110. The TQCIR styling set at $140 states it too, and the Beurer states brushless with 1500 W. Dyson describes its own digital motor at up to 110,000 rpm without using the word.
What the design buys is a wear item removed and a higher rotational speed available.
What is not published anywhere is a comparison of energy use between motor types, so this page will not claim one. What the same listings do publish is wattage and air speed, which is what a buyer can actually compare: 1500 W on the Beurer, and 28 to 35 meters (92 to 115 ft) a second of airflow across the stylers that state a figure.
The related figure that does matter — and that only one of them publishes — is air pressure. Dyson states 3.2 kPa, which it links directly to the Coanda effect that wraps hair around the barrel. That is the mechanism the motor exists to produce.
Check your own manual before you follow anything here. Temperatures, water ratings and supply voltages differ from model to model, and the maker’s own figures take precedence over anything written on this site. A supply of the wrong voltage is a failure rather than a slow charge, and the figure is printed on the tool — not inferred from a connector that happens to fit.
