T3 - UK (2022-03)

96 T3 MARCH 2022

Best of the best

Given that the

trend is to shave

less nowadays, we

recommend the

Braun Series 9 foil

shaver over Philips’

almost equally

impressive efforts. It

is slightly better on

longer stubble.

£250, braun.com

PHILIPS SERIES

9000 S9211/31

A rotary shaver that

requires a circular

motion on the face.

Stubble disappears

like magic, and the

whole experience is

very low-irritation.

You get a clip-

on trimmer for

sideburns too.

£199, philips.co.uk

BRAUN SERIES 7

70-N7200CC

This new offering

from Braun, with

three foil heads,

is an absolute

cracker in every

respect. It shaves

as close as a wet

razor, only in half

the time. And that’s

no exaggeration.

£165, braun.com

PHILIPS SERIES

9000 PRESTIGE

The second best

shaver has a silly

RRP (£430!) but is

available for around

£300. It’s good for

sensitive skin, mows

long stubble and is

really close to the

shave you get from

traditional razors.

£300, philips.co.uk

PHILIPS SONICARE 9900 PRESTIGE

Philips’ most

advanced electric

toothbrush yet, it

features SenseIQ

technology. It senses

pressure, motion and

coverage up to 100

times per second,

adapting the intensity

if you brush too hard.

£300, philips.co.uk

ORAL-B IO9

The RRP for the iO

Series 9 is ridiculous,

but you can get it for

less, and it is brilliant

at actually cleaning

your teeth, plus it’s

also very stylish, with

a colour touchscreen

and a tooth-tracking

monitoring system.

£500, oralb.co.uk

PHILIPS SONICARE 6100

PROTECTIVECLEAN

Offering the current

best blend of features

and price in the

Sonicare range, this

brush doesn’t pile on

too many pointless

cleaning modes – just

the self-explanatory

‘clean’ and ‘white’ plus

a ‘gum care’ mode.

£125, philips.co.uk

ORAL-B PRO 2 2500

This only has two

cleaning modes

and no ‘smart’

functionality to

speak of, but ask

yourself... do you

really care? It has

a timer, pressure

sensor, and excellent

rotary cleaning.

£35, oralb.co.uk

PHILIPS BT9000 PRESTIGE

The classiest looking

beard trimmer

we’ve ever clapped

eyes on, it offers an

equally classy shave.

Designed primarily

for neater beard-

scaping, it whips away

whiskers without any

snags or pulls.

£120, philips.co.uk

PANASONIC I-SHAPER

ER-GD60

For slightly longer

beards, this is the

one to go for. Its

unusual, ‘side-on’

cutting action, where

you pull the shaver

through your hirsute

tresses more like a

comb, soon becomes

second nature.

£50, panasonic.co.uk

BRAUN BEARD TRIMMER 7

This trimmer feels like

good value for money,

earning it a place on

this list. Small, light

and easy to use, its

tough blades shave

cleanly. Battery life is

solid, and the unit is

waterproof enough

for easy rinsing.

£65, braun.com

PHILIPS ONEBLADE PRO

The best trimmer for

those with sensitive

skin, this uses

innovative OneBlade

technology. It’s good

for both your face

and your downstairs,

although you may

wish to change heads

in between.

£50, philips.co.uk
