All in all, it is great value for money, and most budget-conscious people would be satisfied using it. The number of accessories is quite similar with both series. The main difference is that Series 7 comes with a travel case for convenient packing on the go. Despite the manufacturer’s effort to improve their products, Remington Shaver this new launch is a major downgrade from the iteration we’ll discuss below.

When the level indicator lights up permanently red, the remaining fluid in the cartridge is sufficient for about 3 more cycles. When the level indicator blinks red, the cartridge needs to be replaced – about every 4 weeks when used daily. Charging will start automatically when the Remington Shaver shaver has been placed in properly. The contacts on the back of the shaver need to align with the contacts in the C&C. A beep sound confirms that the shaver sits properly in the C&C. Do not expose the appliance to temperatures higher than 50 °C for extended periods of time.
It does not cut close, it leaves clumps, it pulls, it cuts the skin. Interestingly the product came with a disposable razor, I think they know their product is junk and provide this to give you a chance of a decent job. Water flows through the cutting elements and rinses off stubble. Cleaning stations of Series 7 can clean, dry, lubricate, and charge the electric razor.
While the closeness of the Series 5 isn’t class-leading, this shaver shines when it comes to comfort. And now let’s get to the most important part of the review, the actual shaving performance. Being suitable for dry only use, the Braun Series cc can be used while charging with the Philips Norelco Shaver included cord, unlike the wet/dry 5190cc. Speaking of which, this is another minus of the Series 7 that was fully addressed with the Series 5. While the Series 7 doesn’t have a travel lock, you can activate it on the Series 5 by pressing and holding the ON/OFF switch for 3 seconds.
I think it will also be a significant update from your current Series 5. There’s no lubricant included with the Braun Series s, but you can use any light oil like sewing machine oil, clipper oil or even a spray lubricant for electric shavers. None of the new Series 5 models are available with an automatic cleaning station. If you’re in a hurry, the quick charge function can come in handy. Charging the shaver for 5 minutes should provide just enough juice to complete a shave.
