According to the company, as an essential element to the well-connected bathroom, the product will be showcased in the GSMA Connected City exhibition space, a realistic city environment showcasing cutting-edge mobile products and services for the increasingly connected life.
Available for purchase in limited quantities this spring, the product is poised to set a new standard in personal oral care.
