Braun Series 9 Electric Shaver for Men, 4+1 ProHead with ProLift Precision Trimmer, Electric Razor for Wet & Dry Use with Charging PowerCase, Gifts For Men, 2 Pin UK Plug, 9477cc, Silver Razor

Product Information

I think the Series 9 Pro will still be a great option for users with irritation-prone skin that also experience razor burn, ingrown hairs/folliculitis or need a few days between shaving sessions. Unless you deliberately try to inflict some pain by pressing the head excessively or moving it extremely fast over sensitive areas, you’ll probably enjoy a smooth and irritation-free shave. While we can only speculate, I think the trimmer was indeed the main reason for the unexpected 92xx update. You mentioned that the Braun motor puts out 10,000 oscillations per minute. Does the motor decrease in performance over time? Or, do you think it maintains the 10,000 OPM performance until the motor dies? Not sure if this is something that only the Braun engineers can answer.

One of the first steps in finding the best options when working with stainless steel is determining the proper alloy for your product.It’s powerful and fast and it takes me less time to complete my shave compared to using anything else, especially when shaving longer stubble. Lastly, someone mentioned a 91/50 shaving head from Philips – this head has exactly the same shaving rings as Prestige, except Prestige one has some sort of ‘nano particles’ sprayed over the materials and 91/50 is a simple stainless steel version. I would say 99.99% shaving performance will be the same as Prestige. Reply Tempering and hardening is possible due to added carbon, making this family a leading choice for knives, scissors, razors and medical tools. Similarly, would the Remington Face Saver (talc plus ???) require the shaver be hot water washed (and then dried) before putting in the cleaning station? I don’t know if that pre-shave causes gunk ala the foams & gels that require washing (and drying) before the shaver goes in the cleaning station. Performance-wise, all of them are identical to my 9477cc, so you might consider this a 9460cc, 9465cc or 9419s review as well.

These 2 models are not yet on sale in Australia and while each comes with respective additional heads, strangely they do not come with PowerCase. Probably to keep costs down. The new shaving head/cassette of the Pro models (94s/94M) features a redesigned cutter that in theory doesn’t have any influence on closeness.It probably won’t wow you, but there’s nothing that really stands out in a bad way either. Included accessories I will share my thoughts on it in the performance section of the review after testing the Series 9 Pro on various beard lengths. The S9 Pro is very effective at catching difficult facial hair: longer, stray, flat-lying hairs that also grow in different directions. There are already more than 10 S9 Pro variations available in Europe, with different colors and accessories (regular and power cases, with or without cleaning stations). As mentioned previously, I actually prefer the matte finish on the Series 9 models to the chrome coating because it won’t show scuffs, fine scratches, and smudges as easily.

So if you plan on using your Series 9 with shaving cream or gel but also want the convenience of a cleaning station, you’ll have to do a bit of extra work. The two outermost foils are the elements that actually cut the hair at skin level and those are the same as before.

With many of these models still readily available in 2023, choosing a Series 9 or 9 PRO/PRO+ can be difficult, to say the least. These new models were initially launched in Europe, but are now available in many countries, including the USA. The ProComfort and ProCare heads will be on sale as a separate product and are compatible will the whole S9 series.

I have an S9 9390cc in matt silver, and it it’s great to learn that it will work with the charging case. Based on your review, I would probably not choose to ‘upgrade’ to the pro cutter except that the 92m cutter assembly now doesn’t seem to be available in the UK, so maybe Braun have discontinued it. The foils getting excessively hot can very well be a sign of wear and you’ll likely need to replace the shaving head. The foils and blades are machined with great precision and after a while the metal can warp and cause more friction between the moving parts and that will generate more heat, leading to razor burn. 15 months is actually not too bad. We do not know how the manufacturer came up with 18 months, but I will assume that their testing methodology was based on light use and ideal conditions.

That’s not anything out of the ordinary (Panasonic shavers have motors capable of 14 000 cutting actions), but the numbers alone don’t mean much. Another excellent choice would be a spray lubricant for electric shavers. That one also cleans and removes mineral deposits from the blades.
