We were able to find thorough reviews of the Braun Series 7 shaver from a number of experts, including The Times of London newspaper, Popular Mechanics magazine and Gizmodo.com. Various versions of the Series 7 shaver have also attracted over 400 posts from owners at Amazon.com.
The verdict on the Braun Series 7 (previously called the Braun Pulsonic) is that it has a unique gimmick: Its foil head vibrates laterally, producing a pulsating effect that makes the skin of the user's face ripple (and presumably causes the hairs to stick out a little straighter). Popular Mechanics says the Series 7 delivers a "smoother, less painful" shave, but can't cut as close as an ordinary, non-electric razor, while The Times of London says it's still the "king of shavers," even if it's only a marginal advance on its predecessor. Owners posting to Amazon.com are mostly upbeat about the Braun Series 7 shaver, but the cleaning system draws some criticism, including the cost of refill cartridges (*est. $6 each), which must be replaced about once a month. The 760cc is the most basic of the Series 7 shavers. But while it has a few less bells and whistles, it delivers the same shaving performance as the more expensive Series 7 790cc (*est. $270). If you prefer a rotary shaver, you may also want to consider the Philips Norelco arcitec 1050X (*est. $140). It offers an innovative cutting head design that looks strange, but that experts say works well.
