But the older generation Series 5 shavers get an up for this additional technology. The Braun Series 5 has a battery life of 50 minutes, and a three-level battery display tells you how much shaving time you have left. If you don’t have time for a full one-hour recharge, it has a quick-charge feature to give you enough power for a single shave. You can also use this razor while it’s plugged in, though its battery life indicator is disabled during charging. Blades – This shaver is a foil type that operates with three flexible blades.
Speed is always important when looking at shaving performance. When it comes to speed the Braun Series 5 has a speed of 40,000 cutting actions per minute, which is pretty fast. The Braun Series 3 doesn’t have a cutting action per minute rating, so we really can’t compare the speed of the two shavers. The cleaning cartridge needs replacement from time to time, which is unexpected for a high-end shaver and means extra expense.

This middle trimmer lifts flat hairs and pulls all your whiskers in one direction. When hair is lifted and directed in the right direction, it’ll easily slip into the foil for cutting. When comfort is a concern both shavers feel great in the hands.
