Joovv Mini 3.0 vs Joovv Solo 3.0
The Mini 3.0 is the cheaper of the two at $1,099, so it wins on value if the specs are close enough for your use. The Joovv Solo 3.0 packs more emitters (150 against 60), which usually means a shorter session for the same dose.

Mini 3.0
You are paying for the brand, the safety certification and the return window rather than for photons. On measured output per dollar it is the weakest panel we track.
Joovv Solo 3.0
The category default and the one most people have heard of. Competing panels deliver similar measured output for several hundred dollars less.
