I specifically compared the Braun Series 9 Pro to the 93 models since the 92 aren’t as widespread in 2023. Well, a Titanium Nitride coating is often used for its anti-corrosive and edge retention properties, so it makes perfect sense to use it on the cutting elements of an electric shaver. The older 90s/90b can still be found, but they are usually expensive and are not worth buying, particularly with the risk of the middle trimmer falling apart.

If you already have a 92xx or 93xx Series 9 that’s still in good shape, it doesn’t really make sense to upgrade to a Pro since the performance gains are minor overall. Popular in indoor applications, such as kitchenware, or out-of-sight applications, such as exhaust, these alloys are well suited for situation where visual appeal isn’t as important as cost and performance. Also, if you already own any 93xxcc, 94xxcc or 95xxcc model you can get any 93xxs, 94xxs or 95xxs solo shaver and use it with your existing cleaning center.

Advice & Tips

So considering your needs and that you also have a light beard, I don’t think it’s really worth investing in a Series 9.

I’m sorry you didn’t have the best experience with the Series 9, maybe consider an older generation Series 7 like the 7865cc for example when you decide to upgrade.

It is of course faster than my ageing Braun Series 5 shaver but I am not really impressed with the shaving closeness using the Remington. Finally I decided to upgrade and went for a Series 9 Pro as it seemed the right thing for me. Hope you can confirm a Series 9 Pro is a good choice for head shaving? The 7-day beard performance is relative and greatly depends on how fast the hair grows. So for some users the maximum could actually be 5 days or even less. The 94M is indeed a bit more grabby than the 92, but can be managed (slower strokes if the hairs are longer, the use of a pre-shave and so on). I’m older and I don’t need to shave every day (or every week!). I just shave whenever I feel like it. For example, right now, I haven’t shaved in approximately 5-6 weeks or so. While stainless steel gets a large part of its corrosion resistance from chromium, there are near-endless combinations of various metals marketed as stainless steel today.

Anyway, I was just wondering what your opinion was of the Braun Series 9 Pro 9477cc and whether it would apply to getting rid of my beard. That normally never happens with my older Series 9. I suspect the wider gap between the two rows of teeth of the new ProLift trimmer is the culprit.For this reason, along with the potential problems of the original shaving heads (we’ll get into that as well), the original Series 9 models don’t really represent a viable option in 2023 anymore. 2.
