Braun Series 5 shavers utilize a long-lasting Li-ion battery that helps you enjoy its effortlessly close shave. For a shave, the electric shaver needs only five minutes of quick charge. Full charging will provide enough power for three weeks of shaving. They are suitable for dry shaving and shave with foam, gel, and in the shower. With the trimmer attachments, the Series 5 shavers also help you trim your mustache and sideburn to help you have a complete grooming tool.
I’d not say it’s “Super Accurate.” But it does the job. Then, it’ll select the level of cleaning your machine needs. This little element captures small hair strands that lay flat on our faces and in diverse, “Hard-to-Reach” locations. However, I needed to tilt the trimmer ever so slightly to get to certain hair strands. This is thanks to the fact that it sits in the middle of two blades. Now, to say this motor does it all, would be an understatement.
Barely bigger than your thumb, the cleaning brush beats picking hair clippings out of your shaver by hand. Place the razor in the charging base but do not activate the cleaning switch. Connect the station power socket to an electrical outlet with the required given cord. Remove the shaver blades and set them aside to dry. Slide the MultiHeadLock switch down to lock the shaver head and shave hard-to-reach regions (e.g. under the nose). There are five places in which you can lock the shaver head.
5 red bars each representing approximately 20% of charge will slowly deplete as you use the shaver. Unfortunately, the pop-up trimmer sits almost at the same height as the shaver head. This makes it incredibly difficult to see what it is you are trimming. When travel lock is activated, you will be unable to turn your shaver on by mistake. Every Bosch appliance displays the beauty of function. That’s why our designs are always timeless, never trendy.
There’s no need to remove the shaver head to clean it as running water can flow through the cutting elements and rinse off any small hair. The Braun Series 5 electric shaver adapts according to your face’s natural contours. Return the appliance to a service center for examination and repair.
Yes, there’s the issue of a travel cap instead of a pouch. I’d have liked the trimmer attachment to be a bit straighter rather than being curved. I loved how the guys maintained the level of performance with this as well as the price.
There are two outer foils that cut the hair at skin level, while the middle trimmer captures and pre-cuts long, flat-lying hairs. The whole cleaning process appears to be designed to steer you towards using the cleaning station. A small water drop icon will appear on the shaver when it is beyond time to clean your shaver. You can just make out this icon on the shaver display in the picture above. Like most modern-day shavers, you can charge your brand new Series 5 shaver anywhere in the world.
While this is just another marketing word, it essentially means that the Series 7 shaver uses micro vibrations which help lift flat laying hairs. If you looked closely at the photo above you may have noticed small, black oval shaped button in the center of the shaver. Even if something presses up against the power button, the shaver won’t turn on. The Braun Series 5 is definitely one of the nicer looking shavers on the market. The black color scheme with silver and red highlights has really had some thought put into it.
I have to sing praises of the 8-direction movement of the shaving head as well. This aids the product in comforting us while shaving. There ARE no snags or awkward Remington Shaver pulling of the beard while it does its job. You’d need the head to detach quickly for that to happen and it does. Again, there’s a loud “Click” when it pops out.
