Booster vs Hypervolt

In this Booster vs Hypervolt review, we will compare the Booster Pro 3 to the Hypervolt Plus. Both are the flagship massage guns for their respective brands, so how do they perform against each other? We put the two devices side by side to make your choice a bit easier.

Comparison: Booster Pro 3 vs Hypervolt Plus

Amplitude

If you are looking for a percussive massage experience, you will want to buy a device that has an amplitude (often also referred to as stroke length) of 12 mm or more. Both the Booster Pro 3 and the Hypervolt Plus fit this criterion, with the latter taking the win in this category with 14 mm.

Force

Another very important thing to look out for when comparing massage guns is the stall force. It describes when the motor inside the device reaches its limits. Once again, the Hypervolt Plus comes out on top. That said, the stall force of the Booster Pro 3 should still be enough for most average users.

Frequency & Speed Levels

The next round of this Booster vs Hypervolt comparison goes to the challenger. While the maximum amount of percussions per minute (ppm) is almost the same, the Booster Pro 3 offers both a wider range and an additional level of personalization with four different speed levels compared to three.

Connectivity

So far, Hypervolts and Theraguns are the only massage guns with a connectivity feature. This allows your Hypervolt Plus to connect to your smartphone using Bluetooth. You can then follow the recovery routines created specifically for different needs and sports, something that is not possible with the Booster Pro 3.

Battery

If you plan on taking your massage gun on extended trips without any possibility to charge or intend to share it with other people like your teammates, you will want to go with the Booster Pro 3. Remember that the Hypervolt Plus has more power and a higher minimum ppm though, which obviously affects the battery life.

Noise

Speaking of more power and a higher frequency, they are also the cause of the higher noise level generated by the Hypervolt Plus. While 70 decibels (dB) are still only a bit louder than an average electric toothbrush, the Booster Pro 3 is better suited for a quiet environment like the office with around 55 dB.

Attachments & Accessoires

With a total of six interchangeable attachments compared to five, the Booster Pro 3 also edges the Hypervolt Plus in this category. Save to say that both devices come with enough different massage heads that you can always change them depending on your needs and the muscle area.

Weight & Dimensions

The final round of this Booster vs Hypervolt comparison also ends in a win for the Booster Pro 3. It is lighter and a bit smaller than the Hypervolt Plus when it comes to height. The higher width of the Booster Pro 3 makes it easier to massage yourself in hard-to-reach areas like your back.

Conclusion: Booster Pro 3 vs Hypervolt Plus

Which brand has the better flagship device – Booster or Hyperice?

The Hypervolt Plus came out on top in two of the arguably most important categories for massage guns – the amplitude and the stall force. It barely lost out to its competitor when it came to percussions per minute and speed levels. Also, the ability to connect it to your smartphone allows you to track your sessions and follow routines created by athletes and health experts.

The Booster Pro 3 won the remaining categories in this comparison, most importantly with a lot better battery life. It is also less noisy and, unlike the Hypervolt, includes a travel case for the massage gun, the attachments, and the charger. So if you plan on using your new percussive device at the office or during travel, then the Booster Pro 3 might be the better choice for you.
