Here in this blog, I share my personal experience on electric shaver specifically. Unlike the Braun Series s, there is no foil shaver replacement indicator on display. It is recommended to change the shaver head around 12 to 18 months after purchase.
You’ll find a rubberized grip that covers the sides of this product. I expected the boys to compensate with a textured, long grip to complement wet shaving. With the price hovering between $140 – $160, this is one product that packs the punch when it comes to performance and maintenance. I got the “Full” Braun treatment with the package when it arrived. 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.
2020 New generation – It’s worth noting that this shaver is from the 2020 new generation of series 5 shavers. There have been some changes since the pre-2020 models with pros and cons, but let’s stick to the current versions for this review article. The Philips Norelco Shaver 5020cs, 5018s, 5035s, 5049cs, 5050cs are the US models, and the 50-B1200s, 50-W4650cs, 50-M4500cs , 50-W1500s , 50-B4650cs are the EU/UK models. They’re the exact same shaver and there are likely more model numbers, but that covers more than enough.
Some electric razors like the Series 7 and 9 are very good in these situations, but the cheaper ones tend to struggle. As long as you stick to slower, controlled, shorter strokes and don’t press hard, it should be perfectly suitable even for someone with sensitive skin. When the battery is almost drained, the red plug icon will light up, indicating that you must charge it.
Speick + the Series cc is now my go-to setup for a dry shave. As mentioned previously, the shaving heads of the Series 3 and the new Series 5 are strikingly similar. Men with sensitive skin that usually shave more often can consider the 5018s.
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.
