[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After using my Braun electric shaver for more than a month I can't believe I haven't bought one before this. The long life batteries do indeed last a long time, I only charge every other week. The 3 blades take only 2 or 3 passes to completely get everything, including my neck. It's also waterproof, so you can use it in the shower it also makes for very easy cleaning. This Braun is designed in Germany and like most things designed in Germany this is engineered very well, it works perfectly. I highly recommend this Braun electric shaver for anyone looking to get into electric shavers!

A reasonable shaver for stubble

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been a customer of Braun for years, and its Cruzer 6 has been my recent go-to shaver. However, I'm rather underwhelmed by the Series 3.
For the positives, it feels nice in your hand and just as great on your face. The rubberized body doesn't slip, even when wet. The Series 3 has all the qualities of a great shaver except for one flaw; it doesn't shave.
The buzzer handles the shortest stubble fine (think a day without a clean shave). Any longer than that though and it is next to useless. For whatever reason, the hairs do not find the holes in the foil. Sometimes they find the odd zig-zagged piece between the foil, but that ends up acting more like an epilator.
I want to like this razor, but with its ability to only handle a day without shaving, it will probably just remain my backup for when I'm in a pinch.

Not What I Wanted

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I received this product, I was so excited to get this product in the mail. I kept telling myself I would save a lot of money by not buying razors and would be able to use this to shave my face. When I got the product, the box that it came in was pretty nice. Once I unpacked it, I couldn't wait to use it. The following morning I turn it on and begin to use it to shave. This is when I realized that it was not doing anything for me. Due to me shaving every other day, this electric shaver was NOT meant for me or anyone else that likes to stay clean shaven every other day. This electric shaver is meant for someone who wants to shave about either once a week or every other week. I did lend this electric shaver to someone and they did like it the time that they used it. They said it was a very smooth use and it didn't tug at their hair when using it to shave. Now knowing this, I would not buy these kind of electric shavers for myself and stick to a plain old razor.

Impressive Shaver

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The wireless function is very useful, and it works very well so far. Only time can tell how durable it is, but the material it is made out of seems like it can withstand a decent amount of stress. Only thing is I would've liked a carrying case for this shaver, but that is just a small qualm I had with it.

final thoughts on the braun series 310s
on December 17, 2016

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So i posted a review earlier on my general thoughts on the product, including what i liked and what i do not like and what could be improved upon.
Quick recap: pros: design is excellent, rechargeable battery is wonderful and the versatility of being able to use it as a wet and dry shaver can not be understated. One more pro that i forgot to mention is the lack of bumps on the face due to shaving. it creates very little shaving bump or pain which might also be its undoing.
Cons: as earlier mentioned, and still unchanged is the fact that it does not cut anything. I have taken pictures of my experiences so i can better illustrate what needs to be worked on.
In the attached picture, i used the shaver on my face once and it cuts the hair to varying length, and by this i mean it either does not cut the hair at all, barely cuts it or cuts it low. so what results is a patchy looking shave that lacks the kind of precision most men want when they shave their beards. For someone that does not want to clean shave, this would be suicidal to use. Someone that wants to fade their beard or cut it in a specific style would also have troubles doing such.
The things it claims to be different, it does really well. unfortunately it will not be replacing my 1. dry shaver 2. cartridges 3. electric shaver that i have in that order just simply because it does not work.
