The shaver is fairly comfortable with only a little neck irritation. I like the fact that it can be used both corded and cordless and would only consider buying a shaver that has that feature. Would it be much of an improvement over my series 3 in terms of skin irritation. I don’t have a heavy beard and prefer to shave about twice a week.
To clarify, you have to detach the foil chamber of the shaver to attach the trimming head. And again, you have to detach the trimmer to attach Remington Shaver the foil chamber of the new Series 5 shavers. But most of the users and my coworkers appreciated the new detachable trimming technology.
You want to be careful carrying it on the go to avoid draining the battery. However, you can lock a Series 5 shaver when traveling by simply pressing and holding the switch for 3 seconds. It’s hard to find fault with this shaver – it performs well, it looks great and it’s priced competitively. Even the negatives aren’t a big deal, and most people will be able to cope without a pouch or being able to see the battery display when the shaver is plugged in. Sure, we’d like a longer battery life, but with so much else going for the Series 5, we’d be prepared to waive that.
You can just make out this icon on the shaver display in the picture above. Holding the Braun Series 5 in your hand is a comfortable experience. The shaver is nicely weighted and has a premium feel to it. While this is just another marketing word, it essentially means that the Series 7 shaver uses micro vibrations which help lift flat laying hairs.
Other than that, the blades are sharp enough and give a close shave. It performs perfectly well on the cheeks and neck without having to go over any spot multiple times. However, we do notice that the motor is perhaps less powerful than earlier models as it struggles with some areas. It is noteworthy that these shaving elements are flexible. This means when going through different facial contours, depending on the degree of pressure put on these blades they move in up and down directions. They move independently of each other but are synchronized for better shaving performance.
It’s definitely one of the better looking cleaning docks on the market. We recommend changing your shaver head every months for maximum performance. Last but not least we have to take a look at shaving performance. We feel that both the Series 5 and Series 3 perform very well. With that said there may be some jobs that each of these shavers do better than the other.
But can a straight razor be too sharp and unsafe for your skin? Braun Series 5 represents a strong option for those looking for an affordable shaver without compromising much quality and performance. Series 5 provides 45 minutes of cordless shaving, while the battery capacity of Series 7 is improved to 50 minutes.
Series 5 has a larger body but feels well-balanced in hand. The shavers from both series come with a textured plastic wrap for a more secure grip for both dry and wet shaving. The shaving blade systems in Series 5 and 7 are fairly similar. They consist of two foils with a trimmer mechanism located in between.
This advanced electric shaver is 100% waterproof and even works while charging. Plus, it’s designed to last up to 7 years for maximum performance and excellent skin comfort. It’s a foil type shaver that works in straight and forth passes over the face like other foil type shavers. Before the first use, plug your shaver for recharging the battery and do not unplug it before 2 hours although the battery is already recharged .
