00:07Right, I know what you're gonna say, you're gonna say I look like a stormtrooper, so here you go.
00:12In this video, we're checking out the LG Puricare mask.
00:15🎶
00:20Good day, you beautiful people. Welcome to Issa Does Tech, where we do tech in your life, in style.
00:26Let me be honest, I am super excited about this video.
00:28As you can see, this is not our usual set because when I got this, I was like,
00:32I need to shoot this, like, now.
00:34This is the LG Puricare wearable air purifier, or basically the coolest face mask you will ever see.
00:42🎶
00:46Without further ado, let's open it up and check it out.
00:50Here we go, this box looks simple enough. Puricare wearable air purifier.
00:56You know, it's funny because when one says LG air solutions, you sort of think along the lines of ACs,
01:04which, you know, I have an LG AC and it's pretty cool, it's smart.
01:08Alexa, turn AC off.
01:09🎶
01:14Yeah, let's open this up.
01:15🎶
01:21Ooh, so we do have the same LG Puricare branding up top here.
01:28So we have here the mask.
01:31That's pretty light.
01:33I sort of expected it to be heavier, I don't know why, but that's light.
01:37Those are the ear straps, that's very soft and it's adjustable.
01:41Same thing on the other side.
01:43So how it will work is that there's still gonna be a filter here.
01:49Right, so this is sort of the mouthpiece thing.
01:53That's soft and this part is what will be stuck to your face.
01:58So I'm thinking you put this here.
02:01We also have this thing, I'm not sure what this is but I'll figure it out.
02:05Warranty card.
02:06Another warranty card thing.
02:09Ooh, manual, we're gonna need this.
02:11We have inner covers.
02:13Let's open this up so I can show you.
02:15So that is what that looks like.
02:16I don't want to touch it.
02:17We have these HEPA filters, two of them.
02:20And a case for this mask.
02:22Now there is a version of a case for this mask that has UVC built in
02:27so that you can sanitize your mask real quick but that comes separately.
02:32What else do we have?
02:34Charging cord.
02:36Right, now that I have unboxed that, let me figure out how this works.
02:41There are two fans up front for ventilation and each one gets a HEPA filter.
02:46Basically that means that air comes in through here with help from the fans
02:50and air is filtered through the HEPA filters.
02:53The mask comes with sort of this face guard or mouth guard thing that attaches to your mask
02:59and then you add another filter.
03:01Now these are made from the same material surgical masks are made of according to LG.
03:06So when you breathe out, you're doing it through that filter.
03:10Now before you go and argue with me in the comments about what this mask can and can't do,
03:15LG did do some tests and note that LG doesn't really market this mask
03:19to protect yourself from COVID or whatnot.
03:22They market it as a wearable air purifier
03:24because after all you filter the air coming in through those fans with the HEPA filter
03:29and then filter out the air through that second filter.
03:32So this is definitely heavier and will be heavier than any surgical mask you have.
03:37This really isn't as heavy as I thought it would be.
03:40Definitely guilty of thinking this thing would be heavier.
03:43I actually measured this in a TikTok I posted and it was lighter than a phone.
03:49Now if you feel like this thing is just too heavy for your ears,
03:53it does come with an ear guard.
03:55And that stick thing, that's the ear guard and this is how you use it.
03:59Aside from the added weight, the mask surprisingly feels comfy on the face.
04:04It doesn't really fall off even if you vigorously disagree to something,
04:08not even when walking or jumping.
04:11🎵 I do something, I do something, I do something 🎵
04:17That and it's actually well ventilated on account of those fans.
04:21That face guard according to LG is made out of respirator materials
04:25and it's actually quite comfortable.
04:27It's made out of respirator materials and it does cover everything well.
04:31When you have it on, there sort of is a seal on your face.
04:35So there are three settings on here.
04:39Press once for low which the manual suggests to use while you're seated.
04:44Twice for medium for walking around at a normal rate
04:48and high three times for walking around quickly.
04:52Another tap turns it off.
04:54LG claims that this mask will be on up to eight hours.
04:58Basically it lists four to eight hours as its run time.
05:02Then plug it in to charge.
05:04It comes with that cord.
05:05On the other hand because I also had a lot of people ask,
05:08this is how I sound when I talk with a mask on.
05:13I mean obviously that's not very clear but yeah.
05:18And that was our look at LG's PureCare wearable air purifier.
05:22Honestly a pretty cool concept and I love technology that sort of caters to
05:28stuff that we have going on right now.
05:30This my friends is I think a true innovation
05:33and one that makes me sort of look like a stormtrooper.
05:35Anyway that's it for today.
05:37Let me know what you think about this new mask
05:39and I will be putting the link where you can get this mask in the description below.
05:43If you want to see how I use my tech on a daily basis,
05:46find me online.
05:47That's IsaDoes underscore on Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok.
05:51And I post a lot on TikTok about the stuff that I review real time
05:55and answer questions there.
05:56So see you there.
