Here’s a strange tech product that is ironically also strangely useful in actual life. Everybody has had days where their ears are just stuffed up to the max and needs to desperately find relief. Using a Q-tip applicator is absolutely the wrong way to go about cleaning out earwax and Asian hard wood earwax picks tend to be a bit stiff to use. You’re also going into your ear blind using those tools. This is where modern technology has progressed so much and incorporated different facets of things that were never meant to be combined. Enter the Bebird Earwax remover with a built in endoscope. This little tool makes entering your ears into a science.

A Modern Twist

Before we get too deep into the review, I just wanted to disclaim how when using any type of earwax picker, the user must utilize the utmost caution. While the Bebird includes various types of picks, the one I found to be the perfect match was the silicon plastic. It sure beats hard wood entering inside your ear. 

To get the Bebird working, a companion app must first be downloaded. It’s a relatively simple app, but once it works, I highly suggest not updating it when there is a new version available in the app store. The reason being, I along with what seems like countless others in the review section of the app store can no longer connect the endoscope with the the newest version of the app. Once I downgraded back to the previous version, I was able to reconnect the tool. 

The Bebird scope connects with the app via a wi-fi connection. That means the Bebird tool, when turned on, will emit its own wi-fi signal where you then have to connect it with your phone’s wi-fi. The Bebird automatically turns on a scope lamp that assists the endoscope as it explores the caves of your ears. I’m actually quite surprised at how relatively solid the camera quality is. The company claims there is a 1080p camera sensor and while I can’t confirm that as this isn’t a product I can run benchmarks on, I do think it is clear enough to do the job at hand.

Oddly Satisfying Cleaning

Lida’s nasty earwax!

When you do locate earwax and cautiously remove it with the earpick, one beneficial feature I admit I enjoy more than I really should, is the ability to record a video or take photos of your ear picking session. There’s something oddly satisfying watching playback of earwax leaving your ear. It becomes addicting! On a serious note however, if you do see something abnormal or recognize you have an ear infection, having a feature that allows you to record a video to send to your doctor is highly beneficial especially when online doctor visits are quickly becoming the norm. I was able to get through both ears twice before needing to charge the tool. On the bottom of the ear pick houses a micro-usb connector. 

Worth It?

As someone who grew up being taught to manage earwax, I found this little tool to be a game changer. For decades, those wooden ear picks and weak ear vacuums were all we knew in my household. While precision and safety were a priority that you quickly learn how to manage when using those types of ear cleaners, they don’t hold a candle to gathering earwax when compared to these endoscope tools. It not only feels safer, but is many times more effective simply due to the fact that you can see what’s in your ear. I’m never going back to the old ways of doing things.
