While reviewing Dyson's latest innovation, you'll be surprised what stood out the most!

<a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/beauty/rid-your-hair-of-flyaways-with-dyson" title="Rid Your Hair of Flyaways with Dyson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dyson</a> doesn&rsquo;t do ordinary. Whether it&rsquo;s vacuums, headphones or beauty tools, the Tech brand is always one step ahead - designing not just for performance, but for transformation. When Dyson launches a new product, it&rsquo;s not just an upgrade. It&rsquo;s a rethink.
So when they announced a new take on their already industry-leading hair dryer, we paid attention. The Supersonic has long been a gold standard and the more recent Supersonic Nural only upped the game with sensors that actively minimise heat damage, adjust temperature automatically and even learn your styling routine over time. Between the intelligent heat control, fast-drying tech and sleek design, it felt like Dyson had already perfected the category.
And yet, here we are.
Enter the Dyson Supersonic r - the brand&rsquo;s lightest and most powerful hair dryer to date. First seen backstage in the hands of pro stylists, it quietly made its way to the public in Singapore earlier this year. Having spent more than a month with it, I can say this confidently: Dyson has pulled it off again.

First Impressions

At first glance, the Supersonic r looks&hellip; unusual. Its pipe-like, curved shape is unlike anything on the market. But once you pick it up, it makes sense. The ergonomics are brilliant - light, balanced and intuitive. The machine feels less like a tool and more like an extension of your hand.
That lightweight design is more than just a nice-to-have - it&rsquo;s a lifeline. For stylists working long hours on multiple clients, weight and manoeuvrability matter. Personally, I noticed it most when drying the back of my own head - those tricky spots I usually struggle with were suddenly within easy reach, no arm strain required. The nozzle design and shape offer precise control, which makes styling both easier and faster.

Small But Powerful&nbsp;

For such a compact machine, the Supersonic r is surprisingly powerful. It&rsquo;s built with a streamlined heater, Dyson&rsquo;s Hyperdymium motor and RFID technology that enables attachments to &lsquo;talk&rsquo; to the dryer -automatically adjusting airflow and heat to suit the task. This ensures consistent temperature and eliminates hot spots, protecting hair from damage while speeding up drying time.
Compared to the Supersonic Nural, I found the airflow from the r to be even more targeted and efficient. It dries just as fast - maybe faster - and leaves hair shiny and soft, with zero heat damage. It&rsquo;s powerful but controlled. Small but mighty. Compact but incredibly effective.

Lightness That Matters

What really sets the Supersonic r apart for me is the sheer ease of use. With the motor weight shifted to the plug, the body of the dryer feels almost weightless in your hand. This design choice isn&rsquo;t just about comfort - it&rsquo;s about accessibility.
My elderly mother, who normally air-dries her hair because holding a standard dryer is too tiring, was able to use the Supersonic r without help. Not only did she dry her hair independently, but she also managed to style it with ease. The attachments are light, the controls intuitive, and the smart learning function remembers settings,&nbsp;making the whole process seamless. What&rsquo;s a luxury for some becomes independence for others.
This is the part that really stuck with me. While the design may not have been created explicitly for people with mobility issues, its impact in that area is undeniable. That kind of inclusivity - intentional or not - is powerful.

Final Thoughts

The Supersonic r is more than a sleek redesign. It&rsquo;s a thoughtful evolution of a product that was already ahead of its time. Dyson has managed to strip back the bulk, enhance the intelligence and make the experience better for more people - from professional stylists to everyday users, and even those with limited strength or mobility.
It may look unconventional, but once you use it, there&rsquo;s no going back.
