Our verdict
Two very different device goals at almost identical scores. The Booster Pro Mini Plus is the generalist: three modes, portable, 4.5/5 from 409 reviews, tagged for firmness and aging, and gentle enough for daily use across oily, sensitive, combination and normal skin. The Age-R ATS Air Shot is a specialist aimed at pores, absorption and texture, at 4.4/5 from 413 reviews. Rating and review count are effectively tied, so ignore the numbers and choose on the job. If your complaint is the look of enlarged pores and uneven texture, the Air Shot is built for that and the Mini is not. If you want one device you will actually use most evenings without thinking about it, the Mini is easier to live with. One caution: the Air Shot is flagged for actives that can irritate reactive skin, so patch test before a full-face session. Both are premium buys that only pay off with consistent use.
