Hyperice - Hypervolt 3 - Black

It was a great experience, I think it the best product. Great delivery

I do quite a bit of bike riding and weightlifting every week—a couple hundred miles per week on the bike and weights every other day. My muscles get a lot of work, and I've read good things about how massage guns can help reduce muscle soreness. I’ve never owned one, so I figured it was time to find out. I ordered the Hyperice Hypervolt 3 after reading numerous positive reviews about the previous Hypervolt 2 version. When I first unboxed it, I was a bit surprised at the size. It was larger than I had anticipated. My only other extremely limited experience with a massage gun is with my wife's; hers is quite a bit smaller and also quite a bit less expensive. Compared to hers, the Hypervolt 3 was clearly a much higher-quality product. It has a premium feel with its smooth, soft rubberized coating and its robust size and weight. The packaging was excellent and included a carrying case, five head attachments (one of which is heated), and two charging cords, as well as a “Let’s Get Started” instruction booklet. It also includes three power supply adapters for use in other countries that have different electrical outlets than we use in the US. To turn it on, you hold down the button for about two seconds, then adjust the speed by turning the dial on the back. It is surprisingly quiet—it just kind of hums—and it has five different speed settings. Upon first use, I found it to be extremely percussive, actually more than I anticipated, even on the lowest setting. I mean, this thing has some serious power. My wife didn’t really care for it at first, I think because she’s used to her much less powerful and cheaper massage gun. But the more she and I used it, the more we were able to “dial in” the percussiveness based on how much force you apply. That is, the harder you press, the harder it impacts you. With a light touch, you get a nice, gentle massage. If you want to work deeper, press it in more and you can get as much impact as you want—maybe even too much. Once we learned that, it was like a lightbulb lit up and really improved how we used the device and how it works wonders on our muscles. In addition to muscle soreness from all the activities I do, I also have a decades-old back injury that flares up from time to time. I read some other reviews of the Hypervolt 2 where users said they could not reach their own back or other hard-to-reach muscles. That has not been my experience with the Hypervolt 3. The length of the body and handle of the device made it easy for me to reach my own back as well as any other muscles on my body. I wasn’t sure it would, but it works fantastically on my back and has given me excellent relief from back soreness. For this alone, I would give the product five stars. There is also a Hyperice app that you can use in conjunction with the device. The app holds a huge list of routines (I didn’t count them all, but probably 100 or so) that help you work whatever parts of your body you want. Routines such as “foot focus,” “lower body flush,” “ease Achilles pain,” and on and on. Once you select a routine, the app will search for your device to connect via Bluetooth, but it has never found my device and connected, so I just click on “continue without Bluetooth.” The app then tells you which head to attach and instructs you on where to start massaging, along with a timer. The app is quite useful, and the routines I’ve tried have been effective. Overall, I think the Hypervolt 3 is an extremely effective massage gun that works wonders on my body. The more I use it, the more I love it. It’s professional-grade, high-quality, and works wonders on my sore muscles and back. Definitely a five-star product.

Let me start out by saying I have been having a shoulder issue for years now, I have done everything from rest, chiropractor and even taking meds and nothing has helped up until now. The HyperVolt 3 has done what nothing else has been able to do and that is remove my shoulder pain so I can workout and I am able to get a consistent good night sleep. The included 5 massage heads are great, instead of using a one size fits approach you get different attachments for those difficult areas. The two massage heads that set the HyperVolt 3 apart from other massagers is the heated attachment and cushion head. The cushion head is excellent for going over sensitive areas, especially where you are around a lot of bone/cartilage, this does wonders for the neck and shoulder blade area. The cushion head is what made the difference in my shoulder pain as it allows just enough pressure to help reduce pain/swelling without aggravation. The heated massage head is simply amazing, applying heat to achy muscles not only feels great but helps quicken recovery. I have used other massage guns before and they either feel too strong on the lowest settings or not strong enough on the highest settings, the HyperVolt 3 in a perfect median. The low setting is gentle enough for those that don’t like deep tissue massages, and the high setting is enough for even the toughest knots. Adjusting the speeds is simple with the turn of the knob. One important thing that cannot be overlooked with the HyperVolt 3 is when you accidentally go over bone you don’t get that excessive jump from the massager like with all other massagers. Where the HyperVolt falls a bit short is the app department, and its not because of the content in the app itself. The app is great and has everything, but small details were missed. For example the guided videos have people using the massage heads while wearing black outfits, this makes it hard to see where the massager is being used. Also there is some tweaking that needs to be done as app is slow to respond, when changing orientation of your phone or ending a guided massage early, this happens on iOS and Android. HyperVolt 3 is one of if not the best massager out there because it simply works. I was able to move after going all out on leg day and it helped me get rid of a dreaded shoulder problem. The battery life is amazing, currently I have been using it without recharging for over 3 weeks, and it has an excellent feel. I have no complaints about the product itself, its well-built and works as intended. There is some polishing that is needed on the app but besides that I would highly recommend it.

The Hypervolt 3 is one of the nicest massage devices out there. Of all the massage devices I've tried in the past, the Hypervolt 3 stands out for its effectiveness and build quality. It relieves muscle tension and supports overall well-being. Design and Built Quality There’s a carrying case included to store the device and the attachments, which is very nice. Both the device and the attachments are made from high quality materials, and their build quality is vastly superior compared to a much less expensive alternative. Charging the device requires a specific charger so I just wish that it supports USB-C charging device. The heating attachment, however, supports USB-C charging. It’s not a problem because the charger, the device and all of the attachments fit into the carrying case. Device Performance The product includes several attachments, which are very useful. My favorite is the attachment that works specifically for the back. The before and after sensation is just great. The device quickly relieves back tightness but requires another person to operate it effectively. The Hypervolt 3 is a very powerful massage device with multiple level of power adjustments. The minimum setting (level 1) meets my needs, and I can gradually increase the power up to level 3 while remaining comfortable. The heating attachment is also effective in transmitting heat to the muscle. I’m still playing around with all the attachments as they have their specific uses. Conclusion This is a premium product which gives premium results. For my use case, it’s effective for relieving back tightness. The attachments are useful and serves specific purposes. Pros: Premium built-quality Comes with a carrying case Useful attachments Effective and powerful performance Cons: Requires a dedicated charger; does not support USB-C.

Disclaimer: At the time of this writing the device is not recognized in the Hyperice app, so I'm unable to speak to the capabilities offered by the app. I've had a few percussion massagers over the years and this one gives quite a premium feel over some that I've had. It has a mix of massager heads, significant enough weight that you arent feeling like you have to press it into yourself, charges quickly and lasts a long time. Packaging: To start, it's packaged very well, the massager and heads are in a case packaged in a box that has a quality and high end feel. There's minimal literature included as well. Use: It's very straightforward, turn it on, the bluetooth light blinks and you turn the dial on the back for varying degrees of speed. There only seems to be 5 levels which is different than other devices I've had which had up to 100 levels of speed. I do not know if this is different if the app is included, that said it does a good job with the settings it has. Overall: Not too much to discuss, it's a good percussion massager, I'm sure the functionality with the app will increase that and be able to direct you to more specific types of pressure/pain relief based on what I'm able to see in the app. But if you're in the market for a percussion massager, it's definitely a quality device.
