I think dry mode is good for people with sinus. Less moisture, less allergen in the air.
Energy consumption wise, no idea..lel |

Doesn't cool mode also work by extracting water out of air ie dehumidifying? Isn't that the basis of all modern cooling appliances eg air con fridge etc??

Isn't that the basis of all modern cooling appliances eg air con fridge etc?? but OP said the process will stop once the room temp reached 25C, hence shutting off the compressor, and leave the humidity on the rise again.dry mode keeps the humidity level low and comfy, all the time. modern air con always on off on off compressor to save power. during the off periods it'll be very easy for humidity to rise again |

Yup use dry mode last time cause too cold use cool mode
And yes save electricity But it seems different brand Aircon got different ways of using dry mode? I find daikin doesn't work the same way as Panasonic ? |

When cooled air flows over your skin, you tends to feel the coldness being amplified. FYI the main consumption of electricity is the compressor, thus these days there are a lot of air-con with sensor and wat not to control that compressor. |

best is if you can control temperature and humidity separately, but i've seen none able to do so for consumer grade air cond. centralized one can. Generally maintaining temperature consume less electricity than maintaining humidity.
