When it comes to buying the best electric shaver, there are really only two brands to consider. These are Braun and Philips, heavyweights of the industry who have produced top-notch shavers across a broad range of prices for years.
Those who value great industrial design above all else might opt for Braun on the basis of looks – and the allure of buying into the Dieter Rams legend – alone. But I recommend you put your facial hair type, potential for skin irritation, demands from a shaver and budget at the top of your list of priorities.
