However, given the reports stating that the older 90s/ 90b shaving heads found on the original Series 9 90xx would sometimes fall apart, the problem was probably fixed with the updated cassettes/shavers. The Braun 9095 combines everything Braun knows about electric shaving into a single, top of the range device. Apart from that, a matte gold finish and a more premium packaging, there’s absolutely no difference between the 9299s and any other wet/dry Series 9 in terms of shaving performance. The redesigned Precision Switch locks the shaver's head and enables you to easily capture tricky hair—offering unparalleled preci. which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN 311908) for consumer credit and general insurance and a member of the Finance and Leasing Association.

Experience the pinnacle of electric shaving with the Series 9 PRO+ by Braun, delivering unparalleled closeness, comfort, and precision. I’d say that it shaves slightly closer, but it’s not quite as gentle and forgiving on very sensitive skin (more details later on).UPDATE: Chris, one of our readers, pointed out in a comment that Braun outsourced the production of the original shaving heads for the Series 9 (90s, 90b) to a company that went out of business in the meantime. This may be the reason some have reported heat, noise issues, dull head, flaking of blue trimmer finish, and breakage/self-destruction of the head components (trimmers fall out) within only 6 months of use.

Even though Braun states that that the orientation does not matter and shows photos in both configurations, I have recently flipped it so that the blue trimmer is now closer to the back of the shaver. The Braun Electric Shaver Series 9 Pro 9427s and the 9417s, on the other hand, come with a cleaning brush and charging stand.You can also check out my detailed review of the Series 9 9290cc (9291cc), arguably the best-selling Series 9 model from the second generation. The Stainless Steel specs are developed for different applications (hardness like medical instruments). Given how important (or at least how frequent) shaving is for most men, it’s great to have someone tracking these products and providing useful insight. I think many people get poor shaves from electrics because they don’t experiment enough with how “that model plus their face” sync up.
