Braun Series 8 8567cc Electric Razor for Men 4 1 Shaving Elements Precision Long Hair Trimmer 5in1 SmartCare

So far this is the best foil shaver since my old series 7 i had for over 8 years using the old 70s heads that are hard to find. Its battery finally quit and i got a series 6 and then 7 of the newer style they have now. Both of those were major downgrades. This series 8 shaves as good, or better than that old series 7 and is rubberized on the back which makes grip better than the old 7. I like the included charging stand. If you're trying to decide between thos and current series 7 offerings the 7 is less powerful and the 360 head makes it cut weird and horribly on my neck and around my ears, whereas the 8 here hits both in a few glides on each side to ensure coverage. I compared both with new heads and the 8 wins hands down. Its louder than the 7, but not by enough to matter. And I've now had this a month, literally charged it the night after i got it and haven't needed to since, and i shave daily, this shaver is so effective and efficient that i literally get done in a few passes over my face, it barely uses any battery per shave. 1 month and 5 days from daye of receiving abd intial cgarging at my house and it finally needed another charge. That's awesome, if i can go about a month on each charge cycle this razor will last a long time. Its still cutting really well and shaving great as well. Still highly recommending this line over brauns current series 5/6/7 offerings. You get far better performance and functionality, better battery life and they feel built better. I had a 7075cc i upgraded from, the 360 swivel head is just a useless gimmick that, in my opinion actually made its performance worse than old series 7 i had that finally bit the dust. Plus the new series 5/6/7 heads are thin and clog with hairs very quickly, don't wash easily and aren't easily snapped on and off compared to the series 8. If you're trying to decide on spending a bit more, get the 8 and spend more its worth it. Better shave, extremely longer battery life, better features on the shaver, and just overall a far better bang for the money. Only thing is the 83m heads these use are $60ish each to buy replacements for, but i can live with that for the performance they provide me. Read more

I've used Norelco rotary shavers for decades and was always happy with them. However, as the blades wore out, I could no longer find quality replacements—even from Norelco. I tried their latest rotary model, but its oddly shaped head was difficult to use and incapable of providing a comfortable, close shave. I decided to try a foil shaver and ordered this Series 8. The difference is astounding! The shave is super close, fast, and comfortable. It’s also easy to clean, and the replacement blades cost about half as much as rotary ones while offering the same quality. I even ordered a couple of extra blades to have on standby, though I may not need them for a year or more. This shaver is a bit noisier than the rotary, but the quick, ultra-close shave easily makes up for the extra sound. After 10 uses, the battery still shows nearly full. An excellent shaver! Read more

The media could not be loaded. It’s a quality tool but I expected a more efficient product from Braun (compare to one that I have from 15 years ago), trimmer is totally useless for me , narrow and curved, can not make a straight line for me (good for removing individual hairs). Center blades are asymmetrical, so, result depends on shaving direction for the edges. Washing tank is a good idea but need to refill it soon (not affordable, I only used the one came in package).

If could give this product a 10 I would. I owned a 5 for about a decade and really liked it. But the 8 shaves even closer and it’s a smoother finish on the shaver. I have sensitive skin and it gets irritated easily and I have no problem with this shaver. It’s lighter than my 5 was too. It’s quiet and doesn’t pull hair which the 5 did occasionally. I figure it should be at least as durable as the 5 was. Which by the way is still working. I just am finding it difficult to get new heads. Read more

I spent decades buying mid-priced razors and being fairly satisfied. However, the quality at the mid-price price-point has been going down steadily--I'm looking at you, Remington. I decided to splurge and went for this Braun shaver. It is awesome. It's smooth. It cuts close. It cleans itself. It makes charging easy. Everything about this shaver justifies its price. Read more

I looked at and tried several electric razors and this Braun Series 8 foil razor best fit the bill for me. It gives me the closest shave with no irritation. I feel that has to do with the higher apparent speed of the cutting blades. I've used electric razors for probably 30 years, my previous one is a 20 year old Panasonic. Build quality of the Braun is outstanding, particularly the high quality cutter head design. It only has 3 cutting edge components which seems ideal to me. I tried other razors with up to 5 cutting surfaces and they are just too unwieldy to use in the nooks and crannies. Also, battery life is amazing. I charged it up when I first got it and it is going on 3 weeks now only dropping one bar on the LCD display. I shave every day. My model came with a travel case which should work fine. My only knock on the razor is, it does not have a cutter head guard for protection when traveling. This is something I'm used to and think it should be part of the Braun package. A guard is not available as an accessory, I checked with Braun. This is a very solid performer. Very happy with purchase so far. Read more

This replaced a 7000 series Braun electric shaver for me. It is a MUCH better shaver. It gives a razor close shave every time. I thought it was a little expensive, but it was worth it. It runs quietly and is easy to clean. I hope it last a long time. Read more

I bought this to replace my Braun Activator 8595 I bought 20 years ago. It shaves about the same as my older Braun, but it's much much louder and the trimmer compared to my 8595 is not very good. It also doesn't feel as durable and well built as my 8595. Braun was acquired by P & G and you know how that usually turns out. Very disappointed, especially for the money I paid for this; I expected more from Braun, but is it really Braun anymore? Read more
