I moved from a Braun foil shaver to a Philips rotary shaver years ago. Both technologies give a good shave, but the Philips is much more quiet. I find this important as you have the devices near your ears when shaving.
Go for series 7. I have since 2011 and with cleaning cartridge. No regret. Battery somehow still just kike when I bought it. I shave once a week. It took me few weeks to figurout how to correctly shave with minimum pressure. It works still like new even in 2024. I dont get it how they made it. Im not sure if they make them now too so high quality. But if is breaks I’ll go again for braun 7. Im not sure about higher shavers how good they are.
@@wunschgetreu-reviewsmadein195hello, I'm not this user, but I'm in a similar situation would you say it's worth it to make the jump from a Braun series 3 to a 5?
Just bought the series 7 today after never hearing the brand Braun. It was an investment but I hope it's worth it. I felt like the series 9 pro was too expensive ( I mean don't get me wrong the series 7 is expensive too but not as much ) and I didn't mind not having the fancy charging case and some subtle upgrades performances that the series 9 pro has compared to the series 7. At the end of the day, all of these shavers shave. But I think series 7 was the best one for me after watching this video. Thank you!
Love ur videos mate :-) Do u have any experience with the BRAUN Series 9 9325s? It is now being sold at a major discount in Germany? Please advice. Many thanks in advance. Also, is a cleaning station is really required? This one comes without it.
Appreciate the feedback bro! We didnt test that one specifically but they should generallly be pretty identical to eachother. Usually they differ in things like scope of delivery(no cleaning station, cleaning solution etc.) I didnt notice any major differences while checking it out online.
Hi, if it's still informative I have Braun S9. I have used Braun S3 for like 2-3 years, then changed to S5 for one year but wasn't satisfied. So I bought an S9 and it feels shaving very close to the skin. Love washing station and the faster shaver than S5, maybe it's a small issue regarding the washing cartridge, but it can be cleaned and filled with washing liquid from Amazon.
It is important to mention that if your skin is too sensitive and prone to irritation the only way to go is a foil shaver. Having blades not to touch your skin means much less stress on it. Don't get me wrong, you'll still get some irritation but Gillette style blades (don't know the name of the type of shaver in english) and rottary blades can be really hard on sensitive skins. I even had to stop shaving at all because irritation could last for days (sometimes even a week) so I had to use hair trimmers in order to keep my beard in check (it also gives a nice 3 day beard that looks really cool, to be true) but when I needed a real shave, just kept it for important moments. In the worst cases foil blades cause irritation for several hours but can use them each 2 days or even daily.
Thanks for sharing your experience with us! It just amazes me that it can be that different between people. For us(our guys in front of the cam Remo and Chris) foilshavers tend to irritate the skin a bit more. We think its because of the fact that foilshavers get even closer to the skin than rotary shavers. Nevertheless I think its important to try those out to see If you´re good to go with them or not. Thanks for you comment!
You are welcome :) Yeah. That was weird to be honest. Didnt think the S5 would peform worste than the S3 in that regard but it did. Maybe we had a faulty Product. Hard to say
Yeah.. they skipped the corded use with the more recent models or at least most of them. We GUESS its because of the wet use possibilty and the updated safety standards. We think that they removed that for safety reasons.
Philips series 5000 is much better than Braun series 9. I had first the Braun series 9 and recently the Philips, I can tell with confidence that it is way better at half price. It is shaving easier with less time
@wunschgetreu-reviewsmadein195 My overall comments: - better result in less time or equal. - less irritation - less weight - easy cleaning - The battery lasts more - it has USB type C charging cable vs big electrical adapter for Braun. - most importantly, the cost of the shaving head of the Braun machine that was damaged in less than 2 years is less than 10 $ from the complete philips machine 5000. Yes, I bought it at a reduced price "brand new" from Amazon. Now, I am confused as I don't know what to do with Braun shaving machine that i can't use it, and it cost me 4 times than the philips machine
As a philips shaver user all my life, i tried braun 9 flagship a couple of years ago for a month. What a mistake. it felt like shavinng with hair clipper and does not fit to shave face hairs, way too aggressive and irritating the skin.
I get what you mean. They are definetly a bit more rough on the skin than rotary shavers. Foilshavers tend to get even closer to the skin and that can be irritating. They do provide a bit smoother results but the price they pay for that seems to be the comfort. Thanks for your comment!
As a Panasonic and Braun shavers user all my life, i try philips once in a while. All I have is irritation and red burning skin, so always come back to my foil shavers.
@@olegdiakin400 yeah i think so to even thought foil shavers are closer to the skin for a cleaner shave Braun's seem less irritating than any other rotary shaver.
Thanks for the sentiment, but we still standing over here 🤣 I personally dont use anything but shaving cream before shaving. and cold water afterwards to close the pores. Depends on the skin type i guess
It's 2024 and I'm going to buy the S3. I'm just shaving my back after all. Thank you and God Bless!
I moved from a Braun foil shaver to a Philips rotary shaver years ago. Both technologies give a good shave, but the Philips is much more quiet. I find this important as you have the devices near your ears when shaving.
but rotary shavers can tear your hair as well
thank you so much for this video i have the series 3 and i wanted to know which one to upgrade to
You are very welcome! 😊
Which one is it going to be if I may ask? :)

@@peddr.o hey! Im thinking the same thing. Do you have any advice did you buy it
My old S3 3030s got an integrated trimmer. It is weird that my new S7 doesn't have the integrated trimmer😢

Thanks for your comment! Feel free to tell us if you´re happy with it or not :)
Very good and clear review thanks!
Why no mention of series 8?.?
We skipped a couple this time due to our own capacity. We´ll surely check more of these out in the future.
Which one is good the budget one for everyday shave which is not dense ?
S3 should be sufficient in that case! Its not perfect but solid for that price.
I’ve been using the Braun Series 3 ProSkin for around 2yrs and it’s really good at getting the hair off my face (wet shave).
Yeah! Especially if you bring its price into the equation. Really good performance.
Thank you for Sharing I am going to buy Braun series 7 is that Worth it?
S7 was pretty good and offers quite a bit. I´d say its worth it. S3 is also great, especially considering its price point.

@@wunschgetreu-reviewsmadein195 Many thanks for ur reply. One last question - Does this ) series give you an absolute clean shave? (zero stubble)?

I came for information about the S6 and there is nothing about it, does anyone have any experience? Thanks
Sadly we dont have any usuefull information on that, since we havn´t tested it yet. We will most likely include it in our next shaver comparison.
I just got a S5 and found it gives a far better shave than the Philips and a good value buy as well.
Yeah, foilshavers made a better impression on us in that regard as well.
The 8 seems to have the best reviews. I would like to know how it compares
@@lucyjoseph1091 I just got the eight and it’s fantastic. Best electric shave I’ve ever had in my life.
We have to test it in the future

How about the series 6?
We still have to test that, just like the S8 as well etc. We will add those reviews to our channel as soon as we can!
what happened with S8 series? BRAUN 8417S
We didn´t test it yet :(
@@wunschgetreu-reviewsmadein195 that's unacceptable
thank you for this video. is the braun 3 really better at close shaving than the 5?
You are welcome :)
Yeah. That was weird to be honest. Didnt think the S5 would peform worste than the S3 in that regard but it did. Maybe we had a faulty Product. Hard to say
HEY, WHY CAN YOU USE Braun Series 7 - 790 PLUGGED IN AND NOT THESE? 🤔
Yeah.. they skipped the corded use with the more recent models or at least most of them. We GUESS its because of the wet use possibilty and the updated safety standards. We think that they removed that for safety reasons.
i think series 5 offers the best values

Much better how? Like less irritation or even better shaving results for you?

My overall comments:

I used the Philips Prestige, $300 rotary. It sux, can't even beat a travel foil shaver in closeness.
Is the series 6 just so terrible that you didn't include?
No we skipped it due to our own capacity. No idea how the Series 6 performs. We´ll make a review for the missing series at some point in the future.
@@wunschgetreu-reviewsmadein195 Cool thx!
I'm sorry Germany has fallen. Should I use coconut oil or olive oil to prepare the skin?!
