Braun Series 7 72-N1200SI electric shaver — 60 min

This Braun electric shaver Series 7 delivers a close, comfortable shave for daily grooming and more detailed styling, with wet and dry capability and a precision trimmer for shaping facial hair. It is aimed at users who want a versatile cordless razor that adapts to facial contours while offering up to 60 minutes of cordless use according to the manufacturer.

Key Points

The shaver features a 360° SkinFlex head and three flexible blades that follow the shape of the face for smoother results even on tricky areas. Three shaving modes are available: Turbo for faster cutting, Sensitive for gentler passes and Standard for a balance of speed and comfort. It includes a precision trimmer attachment for moustache and sideburn detailing, which expands its use beyond a straight shave. The unit is 100 percent waterproof so it can be used with foam, gel or under the shower and rinsed clean under running water. A quick five minute charge gives enough power for one shave, while a full lithium-ion battery charge provides up to 60 minutes of cordless operation, according to the manufacturer.

Benefits

Using the SkinFlex head reduces the need to repeat strokes over the same area, which can be gentler on sensitive skin. The three-mode selection allows you to choose a setting that matches your skin sensitivity and morning schedule, so you can prioritise speed or comfort. The inclusion of a precision trimmer makes it easier to maintain short styles or tidy edges without switching tools. The cordless design with a substantial runtime supports travel and home use without constant tethering.

Usage Recommendations

For the closest dry shave, move the shaver gently in short, circular motions while keeping skin taut where possible. If you prefer wet shaving, apply a thin layer of shaving foam or gel and shave in the direction advised by your skin type, rinsing the head frequently to keep blades effective. Use the Turbo mode sparingly on dense hair to avoid irritation, and select Sensitive mode for areas prone to redness. Clean the head under running water after each use and allow it to dry before storage. Consider the quick-charge option when you need a single fast shave before travel.
