Braun claim that the new Series 5 is “equipped with a unique combination of power and precision for uncompromising performance without sacrificing on skin comfort”. Let’s see how it stacks up…

Panasonic Premium ES-RF31 Wet and Dry

Like the Flagship Panasonic ES-LV61, the ES-RF31 is another great performer in the shower and combines the flexibility to shave dry or wet with the convenience of an electric shaver.

Indeed, one customer said that the ES-RF31 gave as near to an ordinary wet shave as you can get – high praise indeed!

Remington F5800 Titanium-X

In the era or triple and quad foils, at first glance the dual foil Remington F5800 Titanium-X appears to be behind the leading edge of technology, but nonetheless this shaver rates extremely highly with customers.

It immediately feels like a solid and quality shaver and it’s main feature is a flexing head that ensures maximum contact with the skin for a close and even shave. The two steel foil trimmers have an intercept system that targets and pre-trims longer hairs to reduce your shaving time and increase smoothness.

The shaver delivers an impressive 60 minutes usage time on a full charge, and customers also particularly liked the clear “fuel gauge” style battery charge indicator.

One criticism was the built-in trimmer with some customers finding the design odd and a bit fiddly to use at times.

But if you’re looking for a quality, basic electric shaver that delivers a smooth, close shave at a reasonable price then the Remington F5800 is well worth considering.

Features of this shaver include…

• Flex & Pivot and X-System technology for a totally smooth shave with dual independently flexing foils to ensure maximum skin contact for a smooth, close shave
• Built-in long hair trimmer.
• Ergonomic design to fit in your hand, whilst the intuitively positioned on/off grooved button gives optimum control.
• Rechargeable shaver with 60 minutes usage time on a full charge and a hi-tech LED “fuel gauge” to indicate how much power is left. A quick 5 minute Express charge feature will give a single use.

XR1350 HyperFlex Plus Wet and Dry

Remington boasts that the XR1350 HyperFlex features their best ever shave technology, and this rotary shaver delivers a Lithium powered run time of 60 minutes and a 5-minute quick charge with an advanced LED display which includes a mini fuel gauge to keep track of remaining power, which also flashes when charging on the handy stand.

HyperFlex technology combines flexing heads with an innovative rotary neck, which gently flexes by an impressive 360° for complete flexibility of movement. Adjusting to the contours and curves of your face, it minimises pressure and irritation.

The shaver has improved cutter technology for a more comfortable shave, wet or dry, with precision cutters with holes to cut the short hair and slots to cut the long hair to make sure that all the hairs get captured and cut.

It’s also Dual Track which means that the two circular blades rotate in opposite directions resulting in a closer overall shave
