Braun Series 5 51-W1600s Electric Shaver for Men with EasyClick Body Groomer Attachment, EasyClean, Wet & Dry, Rechargeable, Cordless Foil Razor, White

Product Information

The Braun Series 5 5145s comes with an auto-sensing motor that automatically reads beard density and adjusts the shaving power accordingly. This is a very new technology for Braun Series 5 that was not implemented in the older generation shavers. Braun designed the existing Series 5 models with 3 pressure-sensitive shaving elements as a result; the Braun 5145s is highly efficient for sensitive skin. Artificially altering the power output just makes the shaver feel slow without any benefits to comfort or efficiency.

I think the Series 5, regardless of which one you end up buying, will be a suitable choice for you. Just don’t expect to get a stellar shave right from the beginning, it may take a few weeks until you get the best out of it.

There are a few foil shavers with only two cutting elements, but the performance is far from stellar. They also don’t come with a cleaning station and the reliability isn’t the best (for example in the case of Wahl shavers). The newer models that were introduced — 5197cc, 5190cc, 5195cc, 5147s, 5145s and 5140s —don’t really bring any significant improvements over the 50** shavers.

Because of this limitation and the fact that pretty much all Braun shavers are fiddly to clean manually, the Series 5 is probably not the best option if you plan on shaving with cream or gel. Please note that if you use shaving cream with your Series 5, you’llhave tomanually clean any lather or soap residues before placing the shaver into the cleaning station. I am in the market for a new electric shaver. I want to get the closest fastest shave I can while still meeting some other requirements. Cost is not an issue, but I’ve ruled out some of the top-end shavers like the Braun Series 9 and the Panasonic Arc 5 because of the large size of the head. I have sideburns and often a mustache or goatee too, and I think trying to follow the edges or shave the space between my sideburns and mustache/goatee would be like trying to parallel park a school bus! I was also very excited about the new series 7/6/5 family, but because of the larger frame around the head I have ruled those out too. I don’t want a bulky head obstructing my view of the foils as I try to shave along the edges of my beard. It’s a shaver that’s just above budget-friendly and is better than much cheaper models, but as mentioned above, it’s a good shaver but not great. Like other Series 5 shavers, the Braun 5190cc is also a wet/dry shaver. So you can use your favorite shaving cream, foam, gel, and water for refreshing shaves. The Braun 5190cc comes with a rechargeable Li-ion battery that provides 50 minutes of continuous cordless performance with a 1-hour full charge. It features an auto-sense motor that can read your beard density and provides adequate power according to the density.

Ratings and Reviews

days of growth – This was way too much growth for the shaver to deal with, and I ended up with many patches and stray hairs. I could get the job done eventually, but it took a lot of shaving. Of course, the best way to shave with any electric razor is to get the hair trimmed down as close as possible with a trimmer or clippers first, so no real surprises there that it was a lot of work. Truly hilarious how Braun manages to complicate this so insanely. OMG! The other, more significant thing is: The Braun 5050cs is the most advanced shaver in the new EasyClean version of shavers. The shaver comes with a smart design and a user-friendly interface with a rubberized grip. Braun used 3 independent floating elements on the shaver head that glides smoothly over the skin and makes the shaving process soft and comfortable. The shaver comes with a charging stand to charge the device securely on the bathroom countertop. With all the available variations, it can be time-consuming to weed out all the marketing fluff and get to the actual details and features that matter.

Braun Series 5 Review and Comparison: Which Braun Series 5 Braun Series 5 Review and Comparison: Which Braun Series 5

With this new addition, the shaver is supposedly capable of reading your beard’s density and adjusting the output of the motor accordingly: less power for shaving thin hairs and more for dense beards. Your station will also not work with something like the 5090cc (fortunately, that one comes with a cleaning station). You’ve obviously done your research very thoroughly, you’re absolutely right about the aspects you mentioned in your comment.The designs of both versions are completely different. The older Braun Series 5 shavers come in a straight design that feels like the highest-end Braun Series 9. But the new generation Series 5 shavers come in an irregular shape. The shape has been engineered for making the device lightweight and user-friendly. But most of the users still find the older shape more comfortable. However, the new design fits in grasp more accurately since it’s slimmer and lighter than the older ones. Cleaning System: If you can’t get the 5090cc anymore, the 5190cc or the 5195cc from the updated Series 5² are two very similar shavers. The 5195cc variation is identical to the 5190cc except for some minor differences in color and the inclusion of a travel case. The station is nice to have, but again I think it’s worth getting when the price difference compared to the solo variations isn’t that high. And that’s not the case here. You can clean any of these shavers manually with some liquid soap and warm tap water. If a certain model looks like a good fit for your needs — for example it comes with a cleaning station and is suitable for dry only use (meaning it will also work corded) — then that’s pretty much all there is to it. I would personally opt for the 5050cc for the reasons outlined above and because it also costs less.

In my opinion the Series 5 is the entry point to Braun’s high-quality shavers and a big step up from the entry-level Series 3. Cordless – The shaver is cordless and has to be charged while plugged in before use, and it should not be used while plugged in. The lead fits into the bottom of the shaver and has an EU bathroom or US-type plug (it depends if it’s a US or EU model).

Brand

If this isn’t an issue, then you can opt for the 5040s variation or other models from the updated series (like the 5140/5145s for example). In this manner your costs will be minimal and this will prevent dirt buildups inside the cassette. 2. Wet & dry use At least at this moment, the price difference between the 5090cc and the 5030s is marginal. Braun Series 5 5090cc vs 5190cc/5195cc If you clean your shaver with the station regularly, there’s no need for additional lubrication. The cleaning fluid also lubricates the blades. Otherwise, here‘s everything you need to know about lubricating an electric shaver. I usually recommend getting a cc model with the Series 5, 7 and 9 if it fits within the buyer’s budget. However, the cleaning station is there for the convenience, so if you want to save some money, getting a solo model like the 5040s is definitely a viable option as well.
