And in my quest for the electric razor "Perfect" I have "all" tried. THE First rotary head razors (due to their large marketing presence ...), and eventually adopt Panasonic shaver main gates razor, significantly less irritating than those with rotary heads. Making unintentionally ignore the Braun because of a priori "negative" purely subjective: In a drawer at my parents all time dragged an old Braun cells that had never been used ...
And I was wrong. Explanations:
Since I used 3 different razors (Philips, Panasonic, Braun and) my review will often comparator. Namely, Philips, Panasonic as it comes to razors that are part of their premium.
The appearance of the Braun's very neat, and very well finished with quality plastics. Its overall design flatters the eye clearly. 3 razors, the heavier (but not excessively), and weight, for my part, adds to the impression of solidity and robustness of the machine.
In operation it is less noisy than the Panasonic, but more vibrant, more to the point where shaving is entitled to a hand and wrist massage, it is perhaps surprising but disagreeable.
Shaving itself is almost perfect even on the neck, although Braun takes a little more passes than the Panasonic, which is provided to him by 5 grids. And paradoxically ... brace yourself ... that Braun is by far the least irritating 3. No fire or even post shave tightness. And for the first time, I shave without the resentir on my face all morning (or the day ...).
For practical details:
It features a hair trimmer to even legs and mustache ...
it cleans under water, and it will load in 1 hour. His charge is sufficient for the week (5-6 shaves). With possibility of using AC. One criticism, however, the lack of battery level indicator ... (too bad!)
The sink after shaving is almost clean unlike the Panasonic.
Its blades are rotated from side to side, and his head back and forth, making 3D mouvent.
Ability to block the mouvent head and the on / off button for transportation.
There are supplied with a cover to protect the blades and an oil can to lubricate.
It also comes with a small carrying bag, too thin pou provide real protection in case of fall, for example.
To Sum Up:
Apart from rendering virtually perfect, Braun extraordinarily successful enough to not produce almost no irritations.
And us, basically, what more a razor ??? ... Add to that a nice design and a solid construction and you are not far from the hands of the Holy Grail or electric shaving even short while shaving. Not far ...

For best results, hold the razor belly up (buttons up), it helps to maintain a perpendicular position much more easily.
