    First shaver for teen boy

    My teenage son found this shaver to be efficient and easy to use. He is a no fuss boy, so he was happy with this shaver as it is what it claimed to do.

    Great shaver.

    My old shaver was worn out and didn’t do a good job. My new Braun is vastly better and is so easy to clean.

    Great shaver for the price

    Was tossing between this and the panasonic and ended up getting this. I’m happy with it so far. I mainly shave every couple of days and it handles short stubbles comfortably. The shave feels smooth and consistent, Easy to rinse clean under the tap. Pop-up trimmer is useful for sideburns.

    Simply , a jolly good product!

    I replaced an earlier model Braun shaver with this item, and found this to be much lighter in weight, and more comfortable to hold. But the best feature is that I get an even closer shave, and in less time, than with my previous Braun shaver. I'm very happy with this product.

Compact design, long battery life, and quick charge make it suitable for travel.

10/10 - Fully waterproof for wet or dry shaving, including use with foam or gel.

Key benefits

  • 3 Flexible Blades: Adapts to facial contours for a close, comfortable shave.
  • AutoSense Technology: Adjusts power to beard density for efficient shaving, capturing more hair per pass.
  • EasyClean System: Enables quick and simple cleaning without removing the shaver head.
  • Precision Trimmer: Allows detailed grooming of moustache and sideburns.
  • Wet & Dry Use: 100% waterproof for shaving in the shower or with shaving foam.
  • Li-Ion Battery: Provides up to 50 minutes of shaving or up to 3 weeks on a single charge.
  • Quick Charge: 5-minute charge delivers enough power for one full shave.
  • EasyClick System: Allows attachment upgrades for enhanced grooming versatility.

Q: Is the Braun Series 5 51-M1200s better for daily shaving or for longer beard growth?

A: It is better suited to regular shaving and short stubble. The AutoSense system helps on denser patches, but as a foil shaver it generally works best when very long or flat-lying hairs are trimmed down first with the Precision Trimmer.

Q: Can the Braun Series 5 51-M1200s be used with shaving foam, gel or in the shower?

A: Yes. This model is 100% waterproof and designed for Wet & Dry use, so it can be used on dry skin, with foam or gel, and in the shower. Wet shaving can feel gentler, but dry shaving is usually quicker for everyday use.

Q: How long does the battery last on the Braun Series 5 51-M1200s?

A: A full charge gives 50 minutes of cordless shaving, which Braun rates as about 3 weeks when used for short daily sessions. If the battery is flat, a 5 minute quick charge provides enough power for one shave.

Q: What does the EasyClean system actually do on the Braun Series 5 51-M1200s?

A: It lets water flow through the shaver for a quick rinse without removing the head. That makes day-to-day cleaning faster after wet or dry use, but it does not replace the need for normal drying and occasional deeper care of the cutter area.

Q: Is the Precision Trimmer on the Braun Series 5 51-M1200s suitable for full beard styling?

A: No. The included Precision Trimmer is intended for moustache lines, sideburns and tidy edge work rather than full beard shaping or cutting longer growth to an even length. A dedicated beard trimmer is the better option for regular beard styling.

Q: Do I need specific replacement foils and cutters for the Braun Series 5 51-M1200s?

A: Yes. Replacement parts need to match the Series 5 shaving system used by the 51-M1200s, so it is important to buy a foil and cutter set listed for this model family. Matching by model number helps avoid fit and performance issues.
