Could you please elaborate what it does "better"? I just bought one for my partner since she wanted it but I don't understand what the advantage is!?

Very nice of you to get it for your partner, I hope she's enjoying it! It’s significantly faster, and not just a little bit, at least twice as fast. When you have long hair, that matters both for time and for precision when trying to achieve a certain style. It also matters because you don’t want to spend a ton of time with super high heat on your hair because that causes damage. The Dyson dries fast and is hot, but is not as hot as some dryers, which is good for preventing heat damage. I have long hair and being able to cut my blow dry time in half is a huge boon to just my daily routine. The Airwrap, which is a separate product (but has a dryer attachment that acts like a mini version of the regular dryer), dries and curls your hair, which genuinely is a huge achievement because I don’t have to use a separate curling iron. I just start to curl while my hair is still damp and it’ll set and dry my hair appropriately. It won’t replace a curling iron or rollers in all scenarios, but it’s incredibly nice. Beyond speed, you’re also getting a very even output of air at whatever temperature you’re choosing. This also helps with making things smooth, getting rid of flyaways, getting more volume. There is a flyaways attachment that uses the Coanda effect to keep hair looking smooth that mimics the effect you get if you pay for a blowout at Dry Bar or something. It’s also well designed and hugh quality (attachments attach with magnets and it’s light enough to use in your hand but doesn’t feel like it’s made of junk). I bought the Airwrap first but got the regular dryer when there was a sale and I had a Dyson owners 20% off coupon. I’ve found myself using the dryer almost every day, whereas I use the Airwrap a few times a week. Like, yeah, I’m not arguing that everyone needs to invest in a $430 hair dryer (what it costs now, the Airwrap is like $600 if you get it with all the attachments) but just like there is a difference in a $500 laptop and a $4000 laptop, it’s just a higher end/more premium tool. Like, it’s similar to a KitchenAid standing mixer. If you just buy a normal $50 mixer or whatever, you’ll be able to beat your egg whites and mix your stuff just fine. But once you use the KitchenAid, you suddenly realize that there is a better way to do it that is more powerful and efficient. If it’s worth the money comes down to the individual and your budget.
