Your article here mentioned the cleaning station of Series 8 don’t have any drying features but the Series 9’s does. So if you own an 83 s shaver, that’s the original S8 station that will only charge and clean your shaver. With just a very thin layer of slick lather, the razor was able to cut them quickly and efficiently and I managed to finish my shave faster despite spending more time prepping.

The quality of the replacement cassettes for the Series 7 has dropped unfortunately for the past few years which might explain the less stellar performance compared to your S8. In fact, I’d say that the current Series 5 (on which the Series 8 is based on) is also better, so I’d recommend holding on to your Series 8, at least for now. They probably thought that you’ll be squeezing the head on both sides anyway, so the confusion won’t be a big deal.

This is my first Braun and foil shaver, I’ve owned three rotary razors in my life and feel I get a much more comfortable and close shave with the Braun Series 8, from my experience thus far, I like it better than the rotary and just as good as a blade and without the mess. The Series 8 is actually more like a rebranded and slightly improved Series 5 (the older generation), it doesn’t really take much from the 7. It also means that there are no personalization modes like on the Series 7 (those were also rather gimmicky, to be honest, but at least you could select them yourself when you wanted to). My Series 3 that I’ve had for years died a few days ago, so I’m now in the market for a replacement shaver. If you have a non-BNPL balance, you will still need to make at least your minimum payment as shown on your statement.

However, considering the above-mentioned differences, getting an 84 Series 8 (aka Series 8 Pro) makes more sense, especially if you can get it for the same money as a similar 83 model. You might be wanting and/or collecting info to make an article comparing all of the Series 8 and to update the other articles mentioning Series 8, so here’s some model info for reference. However, other models are actually available for purchase as well in the USA, including the original 83 variations. The more compact head of the Series 8 plus the fact that you shave daily make it more suitable for you. The rest of the features are exactly the same, so it’s no surprise that the newer Series 8 Pro will shave exactly the same as the older 83 models.Shake off excess water, optionally pat dry the cassette and shaver with a soft cloth or paper towel and let them air dry completely. These colors are country-specific; for example, the USA is only getting the Galvano Silver colorway (available with the 8457cc and 8467cc). The Series 8 8370cc can be charged directly from a power socket using the cord or via the cleaning station.
