While walking through the evening shows at CES 2025, I was on the hunt for the latest audio products. While passing a booth, I thought I spotted a new pair of over-ear headphones, but to my surprise, they were actually advanced ear cleaners. They say you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, but this takes it to another level.
The Bebird EarSight Flow ear cleaner uses small pods of water placed in one ear cup to supply water to a small spout in the other cup that gently shoots water into your ears to clean them. The spout includes a camera, and users can download the companion app to watch the EarSight Flow clean their ears in real time.

According to Bebird, the camera is a specialized optical lens with an adjustable ball axis to adjust the viewing angle in their ears during the cleaning. Additionally, there are over one million pixels to contribute to the high-resolution picture.
After the water is streamed into the ear to clean it, the same spout employs a drying cycle to decrease the remaining moisture inside the ear. The device also includes an intelligent warming system that automatically adjusts the temperature of the liquid to ensure it’s not too hot or cold for the sensitive parts of the ear.
Helen Wang, chief marketing officer of Bebird, was demoing the EarSight Flow on the Pepcom show floor during CES 2025. The EarSight Flow’s design and unique concept made it an honoree of the 2025 CES Innovation Awards. Wang explained to me that using Q-tips and inserting other objects into your ear can be unsanitary or cause damage to the ear canal.

She asserts that the EarSight Flow is a more effective, safer, and sanitary way to clean the ears. If you’ve ever cleaned your ears and inspected what was inside them, you might enjoy the EarSight Flow. Wang demonstrated how you can look at the app and watch the debris flow out of your ears.
Regularly and thoroughly cleaning your ears can improve hearing and reduce the risk of ear infections while wearing earplugs and earbuds. The EarSight Flow is only currently shipping to customers in the US for $199.
