You’ll see it marketed as a 6-in-1 SmartCare center, but again, it is essentially the same. 6. Will the Solo Series 9 models work with a cleaning s And this is a bit of a bummer since it takes away some of that hassle-free maintenance promised by the station. However, I still find it important, for the consumer, to know the differences between the colors and accessories (e.g. what kind of travel case, what kind of cleaning station and if any at all. Note that I only mentioned the CC models..).

And then the OptiFoils do their duty. The HyperLift & Cut trimmer is the unique technology used in the Braun Series 9 that Braun designed for capturing and cutting flat-lying hairs and longer hairs. synchronised shaving elements - Series 9 includes 5 synchronized shaving elements for a flawless shave in one stroke. 2 specialized middle trimmers capture any type of hair, making Series 9 the world’s most efficient shaver*. *** Proven on 3-day beards. However, if you’re into wet shaving and you don’t mind some prep work and cleaning afterward, you can safely use the 9385cc (or any of the current Series 9) with shaving cream. Shake off the excess water, gently pat the cassette and shaver with a clean towel and let them air dry before storing the shaver. LubricationFor example, the only difference between the 9385cc and 9390cc models is the color treatment (graphite for the 9385cc, silver in the case of the 9390cc) as they are both suitable for wet & dry operation and only work cordless. While I do enjoy using shaving cream, especially with Panasonic shavers, I almost always shaved dry with the 9385cc and I think this is how most men will end up using this razor as well. I imagine that it’ll be extremely time-consuming and difficult using it to trim an entire beard. For that, I would strongly encourage you to use clippers or a beard trimmer. Noise level Secondly, not only the Braun 9390cc but also all the series 9 shavers, even older models, come with this switch too. The Travel Case: However, the cleaning reminder will appear annoyingly fast — even after letting the shaver run for a minute, so it’s fairly useless.

However, on my 9385 the indicator is a bit different; When I turn off the shaver the 5 vertical bars will show both the battery status, and the shaving head status (not at the same time). When the shaver is turned off, the battery icon will be shown together with a number of vertical bars (e.g 3 for approximately 50 % battery capacity). After 1 second or so, the battery icon will turn off and the shaving head icon will turn on and at the same time the vertical bars will change to the shaving head status like for example 5 bars for indicating a new shaving head.The Series 9 is pretty quiet for a foil shaver during use; it’s definitely quieter than the rest of the shavers in Braun’s lineup. Oddly enough, just one year after the big launch, Braun rolled out an apparently minor update to the Series 9 that caused a lot of fuss and also raised some questions. These new models were initially launched in Europe, but are now available in many countries, including the USA. When comparing the 5 Series 9 generations (including the S9 PRO/PRO+ range), the shaving head, also called a cassette, represents one of the most important differences. Braun’s FaceSpa and Cleansing Brush device is an all in one device that allows you to remove facial hair at its root and gently remove for glowing skin and simple home treatment.

Braun’s floating shaving elements respond with facial curves and skin sensitivity to deliver comfortable operation without irritating the skin. Braun Series 9 is the world’s most efficient electric shaver. The 5 shaving elements capture more hair in one stroke for a flawless shave. Braun emphasized the digital display on the shaver and improved with lighting colour and functionalities. The new Series 9 93xx shavers also come in two flavors (just like their predecessors): solo (models ending in s like 9340s) and Clean & Charge models (the ones ending in cc like the 9385cc, 9390cc, 9395cc, etc.). The updated Series 9 shavers (first introduced in 2016) use the 92xx template for the model names: 9290cc, 9291cc, 9297cc, 9293s, 9260s, etc.

Well… the shaving itself was absolutely fantastic. Closest shave I ever had without any burns. I initially thought this was the best thing ever. And then the problems started. I shaved with the 9385cc consistently over a period of 3 weeks and the battery level indicator still shows two bars, so that’s impressive. If you use it for 4 days long beard, this powerful shaver will not gem up, but you have to make several strokes at a place for a smooth shave. Note: Clean the shaver thoroughly/place the device into clean&charge station after using it with shaving cream, soap, gel or other liquids. Advanced Clean & Charge Station:
