Braun Series 7-790cc Review – Shaving Technology at its Best

When it comes to shaving, things can get very confusing with all the different types of products and brands available in the market. If you are looking for an electric shaver, your personal preferences, facial hair and skin type are some of the most important factors that need to be considered. If you are looking for an advanced, easy-to-use electric shaver, my review which I was able to come up with after using it for about 2 weeks is sure to help you out. Go through this Braun Series 7-790cc review and by the end of it, you’ll surely understand whether it is the best for you or not.

Hardware and Design

While a large number of electrical shavers work on circular movements, the Braun Series 7-790cc pulsonic shaver system works on sideways movements. It comes in a completely sealed body, a feature I always search in electric shavers as I like to take my shaver with me into the shower. It is waterproof and you can also easily rinse the shaver under the tap. The Pulsonic Shaver System from Braun offers you 3 different settings that you can change as per the length of your facial hair. It has a linear motor and its foil shaving head is completely flexible that automatically adapts to your facial skin. Lots of people consider it as the best electric shaver for men since it is designed to deliver 10,000 micro-vibrations with each stroke to ensure that you get the cleanest shave ever possible. This Braun electric shaver can provide a cordless use of up to 50 minutes after charging it for an hour. It also has a LCD display that shows the battery level. This amazing electric shaver also comes with a docking station that does the job of cleaning, drying, lubricating and charging, all with a single touch of a button.

Key Features

The next part of my electric shaver review is the key features of this shaver. Some of the most impressive ones are-

Each stroke of this Braun electric shaver provides up to 10,000 micro vibrations that give you the cleanest shave possible by capturing the most part of the facial hair. The design of the foils mainly focuses on capturing all types and sizes of hair.

As we all know, not all facial hairs are of the same size and length. So, a single shaving element will definitely miss out some of the hairs. To remove every hair from the skin, this shaver has four separate shaving elements. So, you can rest assured this shaver will clean all types of facial hairs like magic.

This electric shaver with its innovative design allows the user to choose from 5 different setting modes. You can also select the – Sensitive, Normal and Intensive modes from here. So, choose your preferred settings based on the area you are shaving and the length of the hair.

For me, my neck region is always an area of concern as most of the electric shavers are unable to reach and shave all the hair on the neck. But thanks to the Braun Series 7 shaver’s ActiveLift technology, it can capture the flat-lying hair on the most difficult to reach areas, like the neck.

The OptiFoil head of the shaver has been created after years of research to provide users with the closest possible shave. The unique design of the OptiFoil head allows it to reach intensely close to the skin and cut more hair in lesser strokes.

The Pivoting head of this Braun Electric Shaver automatically adapts to the shape of the face to deliver exceptional results. Jawline and the neck area can be difficult for a large number of trimmers due to the shape of these parts, however, the head of the razor automatically adjusts on the most difficult parts to provide you with amazing results.

Braun Series 7-790cc is absolutely fantastic when it comes to waterproofing. You can do wet shaving with no worries at all. It is basically stainless steel construction with high-quality stainless steel blades. They work alike in both wet and dry shavings.

Braun’s charging station is famous for two reasons. Firstly it a real good looking design with glossy black finish but it is not a fingerprint magnet. Secondly, it has multiple functions apart from charging. It works as a holder and resting station for the shaver as well. This protects the shaver from damages caused by wrong placements. Inside it has a cleaning pot that holds alcohol based 4-action solution to make sure your shaver is clean and rust-free.

The fast cleaning technology lets you quickly clean your razor. Once you put your razor in cleaning station, its alcohol-based solution will automatically clean the shaved stubble and sufficiently lubricate the razor’s blades. This will make you feel like you are using a new shaver every day!

This model is equipped with powerful Li-Ion battery that will store enough charge to fuel the shaver for 50 minutes at a stretch. And the battery charges amazingly fast. It takes only one hour to get fully charged.

Battery

The Braun Series 7 799cc shaver provides a Li-ion battery which needs to be charged for an hour to be charged completely. When the battery is full, you can use it for 50 minutes. There’s also a quick charge feature which allows you to charge the shaver only for 5 minutes to get a complete shave.

Cleaning, Renew & Maintenance

Regular cleaning and maintenance is the perfect way to ensure that your shaver delivers exceptional shaving results at every single time. For cleaning it properly, you can use the charging and cleaning station that comes along with this shaver or you can clean it manually as well under running water. The cleaning station requires a cartridge to function which easily lasts for 2-3 months if you shave 3-4 times a week. If you clean the shaver under water, you can use the cleaning station with better results and in lesser time.
