THE SWIFT & SWIFT SPECIAL

Both the Swift and Swift Special hair dryers weigh just 407g and measure 89mm in length, 70mm in width and 277mm in height (cord length is 1.8 meters).

To have a better idea about their size i placed them next to the Imetec Bellissima P3 3400 which i got in early 2020 and still works fine (weighs 1240g and measures ‎247mm in length, 101mm in width and 292mm in height).

The nozzles are quite sturdy and medium in size.

Instead of using gaps at the front of the hair dryers Laifen has placed metal rings.

These metal rings attach to the nozzles magnetically and thus allow for 360 degrees rotation.

At the rear of the Swift and Swift Special we find a two-speed switch and an button which can be used to toggle between cold, warm and hot air and the auto-changing mode (press and hold).

Unlike traditional hair dryers who suck air from the rear the Swift and Swift Special do not so the rear is covered.

Instead, the air intake/inlet is located at the lower end of the handle.

The cover is also magnetically attached so you just need to pull it out in order to access and clean the filter.

As mentioned earlier at the rear Laifen has placed an LED ring which changes color according to air temperature. So blue is for cold air, yellow (more like brown) is for 50 degrees warm air and red is for 80 degrees hot air (Celsius).
