Hi all,
I have found the newer Braun foil shavers give a smoother more comfortable shave than the newer Philip's rotary shavers. I use both Braun Series-7, and Series-9 shavers. I don't recommend anything below the Braun Series-5, which by the way also always gave me a smooth comfortable shave. Clayton Sent from my SM-A705U using Tapatalk
Hi all,
1. No The Philip's 6000 and 7000 Series shavers use the SH60/70 heads which have the "ComfortGlide" rings, and provide the most comfortable shave of any rotary in my opinion, but not quite as close as the 9000 Series SH90 heads, which with the upgraded SH90/72 heads provide the closest shave of any rotary, IMO. Any of these shavers will give you a close
(enough), comfortable shave. The additional head movement will - maybe - give you a marginal benefit in comfort, but the fact is if you are pushing hard enough to go through all possible movements of either head you are likely pushing too hard. Easy does it with a rotary. And the transition from a blade shave to an electric does take time - particularly with a rotary. Expect a couple of weeks - likely longer - at least, to see the maximum benefit.

I've never been a fan of the shave from the Philips razors. Braun is my choice for electric as well, and suggest the 7 series. Always gave a close shave. To answer the first two questions: 1. An irrelevant amount. Foil quality and a slight flex will serve better

I’m also partial to foil type shavers. I have found that Braun shavers give a close and comfortable shave. I use a Braun 7983s model. I had a Panasonic shaver before and it also gave me a close shave but slightly more aggressive on my face. No one can give you exact advice because everyone has different thickness beard and different skin. Every shaver manufacturer offers at least a thirty day
return policy if you decide you don’t like their shaver you can send it to them prepaid. I think Braun’s return policy is two months. Regardless, you need to shave with your new shaver daily for a couple of weeks to allow your beard and skin to become acclimated to your new shaver. If you order the shaver from Amazon, they accept returns within 30 days no question asked.
Good thanks can you suggest one or 2 Barun models also let me check them out too
Hi all thanks for all suggestions I did my analysis and some how feel Philips can suite my skin. But I have one question I have shortlisted below and need suggestions, Now,
I just returned my 6800 because of the closeness of shave. I don’t think a cleaning station is needed with a Phillips. The head comes competely apart for easy rinsing under the faucet. i get very good results from my Panasonic Arc 4. It too is easy to clean.

Braun foils are among the top foil shavers and will indeed give you a close and smooth shave. The shavers you have listed have progressively more features, top to bottom, but added features won't necessarily give you a closer shave, just perhaps better speed, comfort and convenience. The Series 5 and 7 models, incidentally, have newer models than shown. I have only personally used the (older)
Series 7 and Series 9, and can recommend either of them without reservation - they are both excellent shavers. The shaves are very similar among these, because the head design is similar. You could perhaps separate them for your preferences based on whether you want a cleaning station (I assume not since none of your listed shavers have one), whether you want a smaller head (5 or 7 = smaller), whether you shave wet or dry (although I believe all of those listed provide both), and whether you
want or need the additional features provided by the higher Series numbers (mainly display and battery life). Also how much you want to spend. You didn't mention the new Series 6, which along with the new Series 7 has a radically different design for Braun, but likely provides a similar shave as well, but not much data currently. Honestly there is little to seperate these other than cost and the shaver head, which is larger in the Series 8 and 9, and if you're not sure whether a foil shaver
will meet your expectations you might start with the least expensive of them. I don't think you'll be disappointed with any of these. Last edited: Jan 21, 2020

Thanks for immediate response. 2 points.
Hi Guys, i found series 7 with charging station at the same price for series 7 without charging station. Now my question is if i buy series 7 with charging station is the model like it gets charged only with charging station ? Cant we charge series 7 bought with charging station seperately without charging station. I am just thinking in case i take with charging station it
should not be like i need to carry it every where when i go for trip etc

I did not get a very close shave with the 6800 Phillips. My wife also tried it and didn‘t like it either. The Panasonic Arc 4 gives a closer shave by some reviewers than the Braun 7. I think Amazon has them at a very good price right now. The new Braun’s are not available in the states until January 21 Therefore I have not seen any reviews. Just remember new is not always
better.
Hi all,
https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B01IN8LBOY/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_1?smid=A3JWKAKR8XB7XF&th=1 But this model I think is available from 2016. I
hope there are no new models in 7000 series which are launched later to this model with same performance which I have missed to consider. If so please suggest/guide me. Similar threadsreport this ad
Which model of Philips shaver is best?Philips Series 9000 shaver is the best rotary shaver we've ever tested, but it's also the most expensive, with a price tag that will frighten off the majority of buyers. The Series 7000 is more approachable, giving you most of the same core technology for half the price.
Is the Philips series 7000 Good?The Philips BodyGroom 7000 offers outstanding body shaving and trimming performance, making it one of the best body hair removal tools around. Its super premium 2-in-1 design means you have just about everything you need for manscaping or full-on shaving, in or out of the shower, all wrapped up in one device.
Is Philips 9000 shaver worth it?One of the best electric shavers money can buy. Sure it takes a fair amount of money to do that but you get a premium build, close shave, smart features and wireless charging.
Is Philips Series 9000 Good?Top positive review
The 9000 series gives a good clean and close shave and outstrips its predecessors. The prestige 'looks' great but is let down by too much plastic a tinny sounding motor and LED display that failed after a few months. This latest model looks and feels like a complete top to bottom re-build.
