I have both. I think it shaves almost as good as the Philips. That's not the problem. The problem is it takes 10 hrs to charge! That's ridiculous!

I bought this in a rush to replace a generic Chinese model shaver (based on this type of design) and didn't note the 10 hour charge time until I opened it at home. That is unforgivable in 2022. Even the generic Chinese knock off (a very good shaver) could fully charge via USB in 1 hour for a 60 minute run time. Also, mine included a so called carry case which was just a crappy light farbic drawstring pouch that does nothing to protect the shaver (other than from dust). Overall, a good shaver with a crappy battery system and a crappy cheap pouch.

I took the trimmer today. I have a problem with my skin and I cut myself with a regular razor. I shaved my 10 day old beard today and it's not bad at the moment...My job requires me to be shaved, shaving with this trimmer won't give you 100% shaved skin like a baby's butt, but I don't need it. You will feel a bit of chin under your fingers, but it is very small and not visually noticeable. It's important to me that I won't cut myself, and I can take the trimmer to work and have a dry shave in a few minutes. You can also shave other parts of the body, the forehead, the neck... I have a complaint about the size, it should be at least 1 cm wider, so shaving time would be reduced. It's light in the hand, could be bigger with a stronger battery, looks kind of flimsy, and if you rush your shaving strokes, it feels like it's pulling at your chin. It's not noisy. I don't see the light on the shaver when it's empty and when it's full? Need Help: If anyone knows anything more about charging and battery? Should the battery be formed, and when should the trimmer be charged?

Compared to its competitors, a Braun foil shaver performs the closest shave for the hairs that it catches, however it will leave more stray hairs as a result of its lesser ability to catch hairs, especially around the neck where the skin concaves. The intended purpose of the XT5, probably, is to clean up these stray hairs because it really doesn't work well as a full routine shaver, but does excellent cleanup because it trims closer than any trimmer and it also has a shaver to cut the stray hairs even closer still. The proper way to shave with this pair is to not seek perfection with the foil shaver, knowing that the stray hairs can be cleaned up well with the XT5. I believe the the XT5 was intended to be used with the lower end models of Braun foil shavers, because Braun knows their lower-end models don't catch hairs well, something they've resolved with their higher end models which have double center shaver. Overall, this pair performs a better shave than its competitors in its price-range, just understand that they are probably designed to work as a pair and a pair only.

@amochswohntet998 ай бұрын
@@raduradu5966In my experience the rotary shavers don't perform as close a shave as foil shavers do. However, my opinion of foil shavers is becoming more tempered with time. I've noticed very recently that the wear across the foil of the shaver does not always occur uniformly, and so on my replacement blades at least, specific sections of the foil shaver shave too closely and even shave raw. If the second replacement blades do the same, I will be moving back to a rotary shaver, as crazy as that seems to me now 😒 The Dutch giant Philips could source my go-to shaver once again. I will say this though, while the foil shaver was good it was great. I don't entirely understand the problem with my Braun shaver. Not sure if it's just an issue of quality of replacement blades or an issue with the blade design. Maybe I'll message Braun and ask some questions.

What is important for me is that it creates a baby face. If the middle part of the Braun xt5 blade plucks the hair and provides a razor-sharp appearance, my preference will be the xt5. But if it cuts equally with one blade, my choice would be one blade, which one do you think I should choose? Which one is better for cutting like baby face?
