Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪. Loved the review with the British slang words 👍🏻👍🏻. Bought myself the Braun 9 Pro and only had old-school shavers before. I still wait for it to arrive. 🧑🏻💻
This is the thing that I want to see. An honest, proper bloke testing these on himself and sharing his honest, practical opinion. I don't want to see no commission-induced corporate article or a mash-up of stock and company ad footages. Thank you.
was looking for reviews so i could figure out which shaver to get for my boyfriend, and i was pleasantly surprised with this video, as a fellow brit i have to say this is the most british review i have ever seen and i love it mate, keep up the great work youre hilarious 🙏
I own 3 new razors. Norelco 5000 aqua touch and the 5000x & a Braun series 3. Both Norelcos shave very well dry, haven’t tried wet shave yet but even though they shave very close and comfortable I can go behind the norelco with the Braun series 3 and it takes off more and feels more smoother but honestly either of the 3 are great razors. You can’t go wrong with either of the 3 razors and all under $70 in the USA. Hope this comment helps someone cause this is my honest review.
This question is an easy one for me. Rotary takes off the most in the shortest amount of time, and the newer 7-8 blades rotaries are replacing the 3-5 head versions. The Braun foil will shave more closely, and it's better for getting under the nose, below the lip, and around the next. I use both, rotary first, then Braun series 7. Combined, they're 95% as close as a blade. If I'm going to a really fancy event, I'll use a blade, but that's only once or twice a year. The benefit of electric is that I can shave every day if I want to. Update: I take that back about using the Braun for under the nose and under the lip. The newer Brauns don't have a head lock feature which my old Braun 7 Series does. You need that feature to be able to do a good job in those hard to reach areas.
Picked up the Braun Series 5 recently. Combined with a pre-electric shave (Lectric) it gets me a better shave than my DE and with no irritation. For trouble spots I want to smooth out, there's enough slickness to hit it quick with a blade and be done.
Hilarious video thanks. After watching this, I ordered the Braun Series 9 Pro+ which arrived a few hours ago. I'm an old school wet shave veteran of 40+ years and have been sceptical about electric razors for a long time. But I must confess, having tried this thing just now, my first experience has truly blown me away. It's the closest shave I think I have ever had and all from the comfort of my armchair. Thanks Geezer.
I guess you didn’t read the Philips IQskin brochure. In that manual it reads that after the first two, three shaves the built in sensors provide a map of your face contours and the density of your facial hairs. Thus, from the third shave you should expect a much closer shave than before. I saw that for myself and after a few not so close shaves, now my rotary S5585 shaves the closest I’ve ever seen from an electric shaver. Also, mine has self sharpening technology as well so no need to any other accessories but the tap water.
Have different philips shavers with all the marketed features and they are exactly as explained in this review - not very close and always some hair sticking out, especially if you miss a day of shaving. Will try a braun!
Tried brown and Philips. The rotary not as close as brown but faster and more efficient under the neck or angles. Also longer bird 3/4 days more. Difficult and painful compared to rotary Philips and not.
That little extra trimmer head is something to really look for. When my old shaver broke, I bought a Braun model that doesn't have the trimmer. Now I can't easily get at the hairs that are too long, and if I forget to shave I'm screwed. Problem is it's a Braun so it's a reliable, quality thing that I've now been stuck with for the past 7 years :D
thanks for the review. I decided to buy the braun series 9, hopefully it works well. I would like to give you a one piece of advice for your channel, you have a great sense of humor, I think you only need to work a bit on the video Montage and Thumbnail, and your channel will get more success. Good luck (:
I need something that's gonna plough off 7 days growth, coz I'm too lazy to share multiple times a week..... This video hasn't helped me choose my next shaver but it gave me a bloody good laugh... Thanks for posting 👍🏻😂
i know this is a year old but im gonna call you out on this bit about leaving a hair or 2. ive been using a philips rotary for a few years now and have never shaved in tiny circles. just use it like a normal shaver and it cuts fine
Nice video, you're so funny :D. yeh, as anticipated Braun way better but, I think one blade changed the equation you know, for price to how good and close, and how durable the blade is.
I have a doubt, it does always turn the light of the replacement on when you finish your shaving? How will I know when you need to replace it? Does it change to red or something?
I have one question. How close shave I can get with Andis compared to cartridge razor, i know Panasonic Arc 5 is maybe best electric shaver but it's expensive and i can't find it in my country.
Foil seems better, but what about the rotary ones that have an additional trimmer head or the Braun 5 that also has an optional trimmer head? Till we buy one, what do you suggest we clean the Wahl Trimmer with? Older model, but only one that hasn't died on us, newer models die with the first drop.
You can sharpen rotary blades yourself, using some polish and a small mirror, search TH-cam for the how-to video. That way, you don't have to buy new blades every 3 months.
Here’s the issue. I got little pimples on my face (not too much). I shave my whole face everyday because i got a baby face. Which razor do you recommend me getting? Thanks
Went from a Panasonic foil (12 year before it died) to a philips rotary and absolutely hate it! You summed itup perfectly here. I'm going to try a braun series 5. Thank God for Amazon returns!
I went from a rotary to a foil (Braun) and I absolutely hate the Braun. I'm switching back to the Phillips rotary when the Braun wears out......hopefully soon.

most entertaining video on eletric razors
Agreed 😂

Omg I love your pfp😍
I thought it would be all jokes after i pressed play but its one of the best comparisons ive seen. A lot of depth and crucial information .
This was incredibly well put together - lot of work you put into this. It shows!
Never comment. Literally the best review ever.
top lad
Same this was great
I loveeeeeeee your sense of humor.
English is not my first language, but I understood everything and even laughed multiple times.
Thumbs Up!
Man this should get more recognition
Better than a sitcom 👌👌👌
This was fantastic. First razor review I’ve really enjoyed sitting through
lol 😂
Not only useful comparison but also very entertaining in a different way. Thumbs up Lad.

I'm psyched. Finally going to be there before a channel absolutely blows up. Your giving the people what they want, MOAR INNIT

I ended up getting the Braun 7 bc of this video. IT DOES GET SILKY SMOOTH CLOSE LIKE MANUAL RAZOR! Thanks man for all of your research
Glad you liked the Series 7. I'm in now testing the Series 9 Pro+ which i just bought. Video coming soon if you're interested in the differences

How do you not have more subscribers? Most entertaining reviewer I’ve watched
That was a sick review. Informative and entertaining
Perfect video for someone looking into electric razors for regular use
This is both the best and funniest comparison video I’ve ever seen.
This was amazing value entertainment I loved the bit about the left over hairs flipping the bird at ya.
Didn’t expect to be laughing at a video reviewing razors. Entertaining and got the info I needed. Cheers!
I have both Nd this is bang on!!! Very entertaining as well
First video I’ve seen and an instant sub

I did use the philips at least 5 or 6 times whilst i had it lad - i had for over a month
glad you are enjoying yours though fella

The Braun reliability part is so relatable, been using my Cruzer 6 for over 11 years😅 Funny thing is I never even replaced the cutter blade

Banger review mate!
i know this is a year old but im gonna call you out on this bit about leaving a hair or 2. ive been using a philips rotary for a few years now and have never shaved in tiny circles. just use it like a normal shaver and it cuts fine
Brilliant video! Thanks for the entertainment. 😄
very informative video, i have learned a lot about brittish slang and shaving my mug. thanks
What is the price of electric shaving machine ? And who made this machine which Country ?
Brilliant you geeza bought the Braun quality kit 😊
Best review video I’ve seen😂🤟
top review mate!
cheers pal
This video is wonderful in so many ways
Outstanding comparison. I was cracking up lol
These electric shavers are awesome in billions of ways and with, electric shavers do not cause shaving cuts on your face.
Best video about shavers ‼️
Greatest electric razor video ever!
Top review. Quality content this.
Nice video, you're so funny :D. yeh, as anticipated Braun way better but, I think one blade changed the equation you know, for price to how good and close, and how durable the blade is.
Really good entertaining video thanks 🙏
cracking review.just ordererd a braun 9 pro on the strength of you vid👌
Nice review mate!
I have a doubt, it does always turn the light of the replacement on when you finish your shaving? How will I know when you need to replace it? Does it change to red or something?
Best review ever hahaha i hope you review more products
👏👏Great review
Thanks. I did search this today. Thanks very much
Great vid mate 👍
Would you recommend getting the series 7 or the oneblade for the best result and easiest usage?
if you want 1 device to trim and shave, then the oneblade is hard to beat.
a foil shaver is the best giving a close shave
your humor is amazing lmao
Proper British geezer, love it :)
These shavers are awesome, these days it's hard to find a bad one. I understand why all you younger men are buying them.
I have one question. How close shave I can get with Andis compared to cartridge razor, i know Panasonic Arc 5 is maybe best electric shaver but it's expensive and i can't find it in my country.
Foil seems better, but what about the rotary ones that have an additional trimmer head or the Braun 5 that also has an optional trimmer head? Till we buy one, what do you suggest we clean the Wahl Trimmer with? Older model, but only one that hasn't died on us, newer models die with the first drop.
Besides the 360° action what is the difference between the Series 6 and the Series 7?
Perfect Video. THX ❤
Best electric razor review I've ever seen 😂
You can sharpen rotary blades yourself, using some polish and a small mirror, search TH-cam for the how-to video. That way, you don't have to buy new blades every 3 months.
Love your summary
Remington foil for me, mate. I found the Braun too frail, plus no pop-up trimmer like the Remington.
Fair enough lad - i plan to test some more shaver brands out in 2025.
Thanks for sharing
Liked this video for that single frame of footage where u said INIT and added the British flag
Here’s the issue. I got little pimples on my face (not too much). I shave my whole face everyday because i got a baby face. Which razor do you recommend me getting? Thanks
exfoliate your face more and go with a quality braun electric shaver
❤Great explanation bro 👍
Great review. Funny too!
Ivw always got fantastic results with rotary, which makes wanna try a foil
I thought rotary is better, my old Braun foil cant clean shave my neck.
I should look for Philips foil shaver. Many thanks.
try the braun series 9 pro
Went from a Panasonic foil (12 year before it died) to a philips rotary and absolutely hate it! You summed itup perfectly here. I'm going to try a braun series 5. Thank God for Amazon returns!
Just made a video on the Braun Series 9 Pro+. Perhaps watch that if you're in the market for a new Braun!
Good luck with the purchase pal
@@geezerintotechNo mate, I buy cheap, and invest in property. I'll by the flagship when I retire in a couple of years °¬)
I went from a rotary to a foil (Braun) and I absolutely hate the Braun. I'm switching back to the Phillips rotary when the Braun wears out......hopefully soon.
Came here for solid advice about electric razors. Got that plus genuine laughs. You’re a fuckin goofball bro. Keep it up
Fecking hilarious thank you
Sick review, love it
I miss Benidorm!!! Last there in 89. What a wonderful place.
Sure this is very informational but this man is hilarious!
