But for a more serious case like this one, I think a Series 7 would be a much better choice. Is not only gentler by default, you can actually cycle through different settings, ranging from Sensitive to a High-intensity mode. While for most users that won’t make a difference, in this case I think it will be quite useful.
You’ll look forward to the shave rather than feeling dreadful about it with this Braun model. Series 7 performs better with long hair that lies flat or grows in various directions. The results are pretty good when it deals with two or three days of hair growth.
When the battery is almost drained, the red plug icon will light up, indicating that you must charge it. Nevertheless, the battery life has been solid during my tests with the Series s. And in all honesty, the new Series 5 is quite a bit cheaper. I just don’t think that the Series 5 name should be used as it will just cause more confusion. It allowed me to shave with less wrist work, especially when shaving below the jawline. On the bottom of the razor there’s the typical Braun charging port.
Braun Series 5 Easy Clean electric shaver kit for men makes shaving easy with 3 Flexible Blades that adapt to your facial contours. The Easy Clean system delivers a fast and easy cleaning without removing the shaver head. The Li-Ion Battery provides up to 3 weeks of shaving and a 5 min quick charge. This men’s electric razor is 100% waterproof for wet & wry use. Beard Trimmer and Stubble Beard Trimmer attachments included.
On the other hand, the 5190cc has a plastic cap (the other one doesn’t). That’s it really, no differences regarding the performance or anything else. It is nice to see someone who uses the products doing reviews. However, reading your answers to everyone’s questions you repeatedly prefer the 7, even for sensitive skin. Hi, I’ve had 7 series for the last 11 years and have been relatively happy with it. However, they have a flaw where the trimmer pullback mechanism breaks and the trimmer doesn’t fully recede into the unit.
The action you just performed triggered the security solution. There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase, a SQL command or malformed data. Even with some shortcomings, this Braun shaver is nearly as good as Series 7.
Considering that you were pleased with the performance of your shaver for many years, going for another Series 5 would probably be right thing to do. The Series 5 costs less than a Series 7 and a whole lot less than the Series 9. Some of the electric shavers come with a clean charge station, as we will discuss below, which can be an easy solution. There are now also some cordless models, such as the 5190cc, which will make it much neater to use. Here we are going to be explaining the key aspects of the electric shavers. We’ll be talking about the design features, how best to clean them, the battery life, how the trimmers fare, and, most importantly, the performance of the shavers.
If the shaver is regularly cleaned with water, apply a drop of light machine oil on top of the foil once a week for lubrication. Sometimes charging could start delayed Remington Shaver (e.g. after long storage). After having pressed the lift button to open the housing, wait for a few seconds before removing the used cartridge to avoid any dripping.
My main gripe with this model is related to the shaving head. The power button is also used to activate the travel lock function; you do that by pressing and holding the button for 3 seconds. It also means the shavers will only operate cordless, so you can’t use them while charging. Also, since all the models in this new release start with 50, I will be referring to it as the Series 5 50 just to differentiate the new shavers from the old Series 5. Old S5 5140s costs more than new S6 6020s but from your reviews I’ve got a feeling the old one is better.
