@drooyrich1279 Thank you for sharing your experience with red light therapy. While some studies do suggest potential benefits, I'm not entirely convinced about certain health claims. The research in some areas, such as fat burning and testosterone enhancement, is still limited and sometimes questionable. Many studies do not clearly detail their methodologies, which makes it difficult to fully trust the outcomes. It's essential to approach these claims with caution and to rely on well-documented research before drawing conclusions. But I'm glad to hear it's been helpful for you!

Hi Hakan_srf! If I had tried the shaving part of the Braun and it was as good as Philips, I would have chosen Braun without hesitation. I also believe it depends on what you're looking for. As it stands, I only use my Braun devices, the Braun Series 9 and BT5200, and occasionally shave with a traditional razor. Like I said, it's hard to give a straight answer about which one is the best when it really comes down to your personal needs and preferences. Personally, I appreciate Braun's sleek design, well-thought-out accessories, and technology. But if you want all the possible attachments, Philips might offer more value. I hope this helps! Feel free to reach out if you have any more questions.

@@Philip.315 do you thing about xiaomi grooming kit pro

Hi! Thank you so much for your feedback and for sharing your experience with the OneBlade Pro. I understand how frustrating it can be with the expensive blades that don’t last as long as you’d like. It sounds like the Series 9000 will be a great fit for you, especially with all the different guards for adjusting your beard length. As a side note, Braun has a model called the BT5200, which is somewhat similar to the OneBlade. The blades last around 6 months and cost between $17-$20, and the trimmer itself is around $40. The downside, however, is that it doesn’t have an adjustable dial for the length; instead, you have to switch out fixed guards up to 5mm. Just a tip if you’re looking for a smaller model! I’m glad the video was helpful, and I hope you’ll be happy with your new trimmer! /Philip

​@@Philip.315 Hi. Thank you for your suggestion. I checked the website and it seems like the guard for the XTC is max 5mm which is a shame. It seems like its very hard to a find a device that can provide full grooming experience. I have 2 questions: 1) For the 9000, would I need to replace the head after certain time period? 2) Which microphone do you use in your videos?

Thank you for your comment! I agree that it’s important not to draw too drastic conclusions from individual studies, especially when it comes to cell culture research, which may not fully reflect what happens in the human body. It’s true that we need more robust clinical data to understand the actual effects of vitamins like vitamin C. At the same time, I’ve noticed that some researchers and doctors are starting to shift their tone regarding certain vitamins, including vitamin C. There seems to be growing interest in exploring their potential more thoroughly, and some recent findings suggest we might only be scratching the surface. And if you think about it, why wouldn’t cancer cells be able to benefit from vitamins just like other cells? The article really made me pause and reflect on this. It’s an exciting time for further research, and I’m looking forward to seeing how the scientific discussion evolves. Thanks again for your input-it’s always valuable to hear different perspectives on such important topics. Best regards/Philip

Also considering Philips One Blade Pro as well!

Thank you so much for watching my videos and for the kind words! 😊 I’m glad you found the comparisons helpful. Based on what you've described, both the Philips Body Groomer and the Braun 9 are great options, but I believe the Philips might be better meet your boyfriend’s needs, simply because it offers more accessories. The Braun 9 does have a shaving attachment available in some regions (which unfortunately I didn’t receive), but I’m confident it’s at least as good as the Philips option. Personally, I prefer the Braun, especially for its fade guard, which works quite well around the ears and neck. I also appreciate the ergonomic grip and small details like the low battery warning. However, considering the specific needs you've mentioned, I think Philips is likely the better choice. I’m not sure if they’ve renamed the model to Multigroomer or Philips All-in-One, but I know they’ve added an auto-sense function, similar to what Braun offers, which adjusts power based on the thickness of the hair. This could be particularly useful for maintaining consistent performance across different areas of the body. I hope my answer helps! If you have any more questions, feel free to reach out. Good luck with your decision!"

@@Philip.315 THANK YOU so much for your quick response! You are very helpful and I appreciate your kindness helping out. I wish you'll get more subscribers!!!

@@Shivaaaaaaaaaa Considering the needs you’ve described, I think the Philips 7000 series might be a better option in this case. That said, you could also consider getting both options, or the Braun BT5000, because it's both cheaper and just as good, or even better than the OneBlade for certain tasks. When it comes to these smaller models, I find myself using them when I’m in a hurry and need a quick shave. However, for more thorough grooming and trimming, I personally find the larger models to be more effective.

@@Shivaaaaaaaaaa You're welcome, and thank you so much! Yes, it would be awesome if I got monetized. I also replied to you regarding the OneBlade, so you don’t miss my response. Good luck! And be sure to check out Philips' website, as they sometimes have great deals!

Thank you so much for your comment and for sharing your experience! It's truly inspiring to hear how red light therapy has had such a positive impact on your knee pain and mobility. It's fantastic that you feel more comfortable and can engage in activities that were once challenging. I hope you continue to see positive results and that it helps you feel even better moving forward. Thanks again for sharing your story! Best regards Philip

@@Philip.315 Thank you, Philip!🥰

Hi Omar, I believe they are trying to include it in all categories, but from what I can see, they are calling it the "Philips all in one," which might be an update, or "Philips multigroomer." It feels like they've changed some accessories and may have added auto-sense to certain models. Here in Sweden, stores rename the model numbers with a letter or number so that they can't be price-compared since some stores have a price guarantee.

😊

👍🏻

?

Hello, thank you for your question. Off the top of my head, it’s possibly the accessories or the battery. I just looked at one model, and it had automatic speed adjustment, similar to what Braun has in its 9000 model. I think this is something new, or I might have missed that some variants of the 7000 model have it. I’ll look into it a bit more. I’ll be back

@@Philip.315 I'm waiting for you (:

@@mehmetcan3079 It wasn't easy to discern the differences, but here's what I've found from Philips' Swedish site, which might be different from information in other countries, at least when it comes to the "Braun" brand. The main differences lie in the accessories; all models have the same battery life and feature Beard Sense technology that detects beard density and adjusts the speed to provide optimal trimming. Otherwise, it's the accessories that set them apart. The 7940 and 7950 models includes a superior cutting blade, which I believe is wider and better for precise edging. They also come with more attachments for body grooming. Other than that, I couldn't identify any further differences. As mentioned, double-check this information yourself as it may vary between countries. Speaking of Philips' website, I highly recommend checking for sales. I snagged a great deal there with a 40% discount, definitely worth a look. Good luck! Best regards, Philip

@@Philip.315 I just double checked. As you say there is one more attachment, superior cutting blade. But 7940 or 7950 does not have body grooming attachment. At least for Turkey. Thank you for information (:

@@Richardm1981 Thank you! And thank you for supporting the channel ❤️

Glad you liked it

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I appreciate your perspective. I also found that this trimmer is best suited for those with shorter or lighter beards. In my review, I gave it a rating of 3 to 3.5 out of 5 because, while it works well for trimming/shaving my neck and upper cheeks, it may not be ideal for those with thicker beards. However, I don't entirely agree that it is only suitable for high school kids. I hope you found some value in the video or at least found it entertaining. Have a great day! /Philip

Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I was in contact with Braun a few months ago because I wanted to ask about a collaboration, but I found out that you can't get help directly from Braun's site, but through a P&G website, which I believe might own Braun? I never hade the time to chat with them, but now that I've clicked around a bit on the webbsite (today), I think this might be the right place to order spare parts. I got curious myself, so I think I'll try to order the part from them. I'll include a link to the site. Please let me know how it goes. Best regards, Philipservice.braun.com/gb/en

Save your money! I've realized that I need a good trimmer and a lighter model for travel or quick touch-ups. If you find a good deal, you can save over 30 dollars, which you can spend on other things. Thank you for sharing!

I will try to speed up/shorten the "script” in the future. Glad you found some use in it anyway. Cheers!

Hello, thank you for the question. I find that Braun is better for this purpose, and if you choose the right model, you can save money. However, I can't speak for the Braun 3000 models. The only negative aspect of the Braun model is that it has fewer guards, and switching between them isn't as "sexy" as it is with the OneBlade Pro and its "wheel distance" feature, but it works and isn't a major problem to switch between them. Another downside is that the Braun has 15 minutes less battery life, if that's important to you. Best regards, Philip

@@Philip.315 Thanks mate, i am never gona use attachments, so its not an issue for me. I can see XT5 available here in Australia - not sure if its same motor as XT5200. I just want one for quick & close neckline shave - as razor takes more time. Seems the one here is XT5100 on sale, is the only difference between XT5100 & XT5200 is an extra body attachment in XT5200? Or thr motors are also different?

@@urg454 You just get a stationary charging dock included with the X5300, and for me, there's no need for it, so I'd rather save 20 dollars. And if I understand correctly, there's no difference regarding the motors. Hope this helps and good luck!

Hi @l-bird, Thank you for your comment. I understand your frustration about the lack of information on side effects from many influencers. It's really important to be aware of both the benefits and risks of supplements. I get quite provoked when I hear stories like this where influencers don't take responsibility and inform their followers about potential risks. I was actually hesitant to post this video precisely because of the risks. But I believe I've taken all the safety measures I can. I addressed the risks and recommendations for using Ashwagandha safely, and I've cycled its use with breaks. The actual time I've taken the supplement is closer to 120 days because I've taken regular breaks. Additionally, I haven't taken any other supplements during this period to rule out other factors and to more easily detect any side effects. I'm sorry to hear about your negative blood test results and that you've been advised to stop all supplements for a while. It's always best to follow a doctor's recommendations when it comes to health. I also want to urge all my viewers that if you're in any risk groups or are unsure, talk to a doctor before starting any new supplements. If you have any more questions or concerns, feel free to reach out. Take care!

@@Philip.315 By the way, I had taken Ashwagandha a number of years ago and I actually got very positive results. I intended to get more, but had never got around to it.I guess I'll have to hold off for now, but I would like to eventually be able to take it again. Thanks, you take care as well!

Haha, feels good to have a backup plan. Thanks for the compliment

@@Philip.315 Hi Philip, yes that was me. If you’re free this weekend, let’s plan something for Saturday. By the way, you’re 6hrs ahead of me.

You're welcome, glad you liked it.

Hi there! Based on shaving, OneBlade is a good choice. Some people have asked about the Braun Series 9 shaver, but unfortunately, I can't comment on it as I didn't receive that part to the trimmer. It might be something that's only available in other countries. So, to sum up, I would say for shaving and light trimming, OneBlade is a better option. However, if you want to focus more on detailed beard trimming, the Braun Series 9 is the better choice. If you are considering buying OneBlade, I recommend you check out my comparison video between OneBlade Pro and Braun Series X. But if you have sensitive skin, I would say OneBlade might be gentler on the skin. I hope this makes things clearer and not more confusing. Feel free to reach out if you have more questions. Good luck! /Philip

@@Philip.315 I suffer from razor bumps while using Gillete Mach 3, i hope OneBlade will help me to reduce razor bumps and provide me close shave

@@AmonnRa I also have sensitive skin. I'm not sure what it is about the Mach 3 that I can't tolerate, but I don't get nearly as much irritation from an old-fashioned double-edged safety razor, especially when combined with quality products. However, even with that, I can't shave every day; rather, I shave every other day or every third day, otherwise, my skin gets very irritated. Regarding your rash, it's hard for me to say, as it could be anything from how your skin reacts to shaving to whether you are allergic to the material. I don't know if you can return the product if you're not satisfied, but you should probably check the return policy. Spontaneously, I think OneBlade might be a bit gentler on the skin. But as I said, it's hard to predict how your skin will react. /Philip

@@Philip.315 I tried safety razor but I had problems with that too, I think I will buy OneBlade and if i'm not satisfied maybe later i will go for Braun pro 9. Also one more question. You can't shave every day with safety razor but can you do it with OneBlade?

@@AmonnRa If I base it on my own experience, I tend to get red skin if I shave two days in a row with OneBlade, just like with a razor. My skin needs a two-day break; for example, if I shave on Monday, I can shave again on Wednesday./Philip

Thank you so much for your support. Unfortunately, I still have a sense of failure despite taking on too many responsibilities and tasks. However, I have come to realize that it was not I who failed, but rather my leaders who did not provide me with the necessary conditions to successfully complete the tasks. This has been confirmed since I began a school leadership program where I have read literature and listened to lecturers about the qualities a school leader should possess. I am actually recording a video tomorrow about a supplement that has helped me with stress management. However, this may not be relevant if you have already found balance in your life. Thank you for writing to me; I will keep your words in mind for future roles and assignments. Best regards, Philip

@@Philip.315 so glad my few words can support. We owe bring balanced to our selves and our families. 💕

Thank you very much! I am glad you found value in the video and especially that my video has something that others don't. Based on your description, I think this could be a good purchase. I have recently made a comparison video between the OneBladePro and the Braun X model; it might be worth watching if you can consider being limited to a maximum of 5 mm trim length. However, if you want a 10 mm trim length, the OneBlade is probably more suitable. Good luck! And thanks again for the compliment! /Philip

How interesting, you are probably the second person I've heard of treating tinnitus with infrared light. Please do follow up if it has helped you. I found two studies, one more detailed than the other, which might be helpful for you. I believe you should use 630-660nm for such treatments. Thanks for the feedback and good luck 🙏🏻 . Here is a quote from the study “5. Conclusions Our study has shown that LLLT was effective for the treatment of tinnitus. The most successful treatments were vacuum therapy + transcochlear LLLT (G2), transmeatal LLLT at a 660-nm wavelength and 100 mW of laser power for 15 min (G9) and laser puncture (G10). New protocols in studies involving a larger patient population must be carried out to refine the LLLT protocols proposed in our study. Future studies should investigate the long-term effects of LLLT in tinnitus patients, as well as the dosimetry, wavelength and number of sessions of LLLT.[…]” www.mdpi.com/2075-4426/13/4/581

​@@Philip.315Thanks 🙏, I tried to give my friend your promo code but it doesn't work anymore. Fyi

Hi Steve! And thanks! The thought has crossed my mind to share parts of my travels. But I'm hesitant about how well it would be received. I made a small attempt last summer when we were climbing and riding toboggans, and it didn't seem to be very popular. As a newcomer on KZfaq, you have many ideas but can be hindered by the algorithm if your video content is too varied, which can hurt your chances of growing the channel. We'll see if I make another attempt this summer.

@@Philip.315 I had no idea variety affected the algorithm. Maybe make another channel for it?

Thank you so much for the lovely compliment, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but would you like me to compare the Braun Series 9 with the Philips 7000 model?

@Philip.315 thankyou, I enjoyed your video comparing the Braun 9 Series with the Philips 7000. Two areas I would find interesting is the cutting length accuracy of the Braun - maybe again a half face trim with one, and half with the other with same length selected again (that was a good idea you had), and comment on which you think is the more accurate in achieving the selected length (I have found that 10mm seems to mean different things to differentmanufacturers...lol), and secondly how well they perform at cutting at the selected length in the moustache area under your nose where trimmers with variable guards attached can have difficulty.

Thank you! Glad you liked it.

@@Philip.315 Your video convinced me to go and buy one during a recent sale. It's an excellent product and your review is correct in every aspect. It is a high quality, well designed trimmer with great engineering and ergonomics. I really appreciate not needing to change guards. The blades are very sharp and accurate. The battery seems to last forever and with its small size in its custom travel case it's great to take on trips. I agree the flexing or slipping of the guard just isn't an issue. The only feature that I wish it had is USB charging. I've tried several high quality beard trimmers and this one is easily my favourite! Thanks Philip!

Hi @@stevemcgrath6996! Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience with the trimmer! I'm thrilled to hear that my video helped you make the decision to purchase it and that it has met your expectations. It's great to know that you appreciate the design, engineering, and ergonomics as much as I do. The sharp and accurate blades, along with the long-lasting battery and travel-friendly size, really do make it a standout product. I understand your point about the USB charging and agree that it would be a fantastic addition. Thank you again for your feedback and support. It means a lot to me. Enjoy your new trimmer! Best regards, Philip

Thanks for the feedback. I can agree that it is not entirely precise or effective for the face. However, I have experienced a few times now with both Philips and Braun that my skin gets easily irritated on the neck, and this irritation disappears when I use the 0 mm guard./ Philip

Hi and thanks for the tip. I had to watch the video because I suspected that I was using the fade guard then, and I was. Exactly what you mentioned, I actually mentioned in the recording. But I removed it and other things as well because the video becomes too long or difficult to explain in English. It may sound strange, but certain things, especially beard/trimming, are hard to express if you don't know all the terms. But if I go back to the fade guard, it's not perfect because, as you mentioned, the hair grows straight down. That's why I say 'Almost good.' It's much better around the ears and neck with it. Lastly, I want to mention that generally, I have to use some odd techniques/angles because I want you viewers to get the best view possible, but it's at the expense of not really seeing what I'm doing in the mirror or that the camera is in the way, so I can't see myself completely. So, one gets a bit limited. Thanks for your tips; I'll take them with me and try to improve in the next video (I'm still learning). Have a great day!

He used it for the fade trimming correctly; that's how you are supposed to use the fade guard. By going against the grain, he will fade his hair in horizontally. For all other cases you are correct to trim against the grain, though.

@@ahmedabdul-aziz1562 Thank you for a great description of what I was trying to show.

@@ahmedabdul-aziz1562 your hair doesn’t grow completely horizontally… Which means he wasn’t going completely against the grain.

I believe I mention it in the video that I have seen other KZfaqrs talking about this exact issue. But so far, mine is holding up. I don't use a very high pressure, just a moderate one. I have tried pressing it by hand with the lock button on, but even then it doesn't move. I think you have to use excessive force or use it in an unsustainable way for it to move. But we will see in the future if it holds up or not. Thank you for sharing. Best regards, Philip

That is also true . )

You’re most likely talking about that channel “Beardtube”. He says what you said about applying pressure to the trimmer head when trimming. But that only happens if you apply a lot of pressure when trimming, which you don’t have to do and probably aren’t supposed to apply that kind of pressure anyways. Honestly that guy was most likely just promoting the Brio beardscape trimmer in that video, so he had to come up with a bunch of nonsense to criticize the other trimmers.

@@BobRoss-wm3lc if you don’t mind me asking - have you used the Brooke the Brain Series 9? I’m tossing up between the 2 as my next try - I’m tempted to try the Brio just because of all the positive reviews (paid I guess) but I have seen a few people say the blades can be a bit harsh on skin. Especially on shorter lengths stubble etc. struggling to decide which to try

@@fatboy5926 I haven’t tried any of those. I still can’t make up my mind on what to get. That Braun series 9 is like $350 though lol.

That sounds reassuring. I've had some bad luck with these kinds of things, but if it lasts for 5 years, it really is a good value trimmer. Thank you for sharing and for your nice comment. Best regards, Philip

Update? How does the mini foil and eyebrow attachments work? Are they good?

@@BobRoss-wm3lc yes , the eye brow attachment works really well to get a good trim of the eye brow and the mini foil body too is great and very safe

@@Enigmasuhail ok thank you

My Phillips 7000 trimmer died 3 days ago after 8 years. Somehow, I didn't have any difficulty to decide I'm going to order a new one from the same device. 🙏

Tough question, maybe the OneBlade. But if you find a good deal on the 5000 model so that there isn't much of a price difference, I think the 5000 model is more worth it considering what you get for the money. However, if you prioritize simplicity, then the OneBlade might be a better choice. I am currently editing a video about the Braun Series X vs. OneBlade Pro, spoiler alert, I prefer the X model (Xt5200) for two simple reasons: the price range (cheaper) and better edge trimming. But as I said, this is based on what I think works for me, which might be different for someone else. Good luck with your purchase! Feel free to reach out if you have more questions. Best regards, Philip

I don't see anything unique about that 9000 model other than that you get a OneBlade included, and it has a better level distance, its look like a wheel like onebladepro, while the 5000 model has a basic soluttion with a lever. Regarding the Braun Series 9, I would be careful about trimming the body without the guard; I don't think it's really designed for that, especially not for the 'private' areas. Oh, you mentioned lemon; could you elaborate on that? What are the metaphors? A 'Monday example' refers to someone who is tired on Monday morning after the weekend. But I don't get the lemon part? Good luck with your purchase. Best regards, Philip

@@Philip.315 The lemon analogy is an expression in Canada (don’t know if true for all of North America) when someone bought something that is defective or broken, “Steve bought a car online but it turned out to be a lemon!”.. so maybe the other youtuber got a lemon from Braun :) I think for my moderate body trimming needs with a guard (and being careful with the royal jewels haha) this should be a great trimmer.

Thank you so much, for a while I thought the whole video, website and file was a mistake. Please spread the channel and the website/file. Have a great day and thanks again for the feedback

Thank you very much. I hope it turns out to be a successful purchase, as it's hard to find a trimmer with so many accessories in that price range. Best regards/Philip

Update??

Thank you for the feedback, and I'm sorry to hear that you had such a bad experience. I bought mine on a promotion for $60. As I mentioned, I made a mistake and didn't double-check the accessories; I thought you got more with a 'Pro' model. Regarding the heat and cleaning issues, I haven't experienced any problems. As for using it on 'body parts,' I would only use it on chest hair or maybe underarms, with a few millimeters of distance and not close to the skin. The primary use is beard trimming. Perhaps you would have appreciated the Philips 7000 model? It comes with more accessories for a lower price. I hope you find a suitable model, and I will take your feedback into account for future videos. Good luck finding a new trimmer; it's tough to find something new after having a reliable one for so long.

​@@Philip.315 Hi Philip, thanks for catching my comment and replying, super niece of you to follow up. I wanted to test it for body since they do market the body blade, and chest is exactly what I tested. I agree, body blade for close trim is not good, I would recommend only using it with a guard which beats the point of having a dedicated 3rd blade. At $60 price tag this would be a great deal for a nice beard trimmer, you lucked out :) I'll try the Norelco 7000 next, but I also don't care for all those attachments. Crazy that Norelco practically invented the single adjustable comb and is now offering an annoying experience with all the individual guides. Thanks again for the videos!

Hey what about the mini foil attachment on the Braun? How was that? Thats one of the only reasons I want to get a multigroom like the Braun 9 or the Phillips Norelco 9000

@@BobRoss-wm3lc Sure, here's the translation: You are not the first to mention this. I didn't get it with my Braun Series 9, and I don't know if it varies by country. Annoying, to say the least :( Sure, here's the translation:( So unfortunately, I can't answer that question for you.

After comparing the two, I ended up keeping the Norelco 7000. Blade seemed sharper/tighter than Braun 'Pro' blade and the head changing mechanism a little more solid or perhaps more familiar to me. Not a fan of sizing limitations and why Norelco could not keep the single adjustable guard concept, but I don't keep anything longer 5-7mm range anyhow so most of those guards will sit unused. Combs on guards on Norelco were more skin friendly. Great body trimmer too, package is priced right. Seems like a blend of the two products would be ideal if either company could care about the feedback :) Thanks again for your reviews!

Hi @mustiboy6506 ! That was a difficult question to answer. There was a person who commented that according to the manual's recommendation, you shouldn't use the body groomer part on the face, which I haven't personally verified. I don't think the result would be satisfactory, and I become a bit uncertain about whether it's wise to use it almost every day. I myself tend to get irritated skin if I do it every day. In that case, it might be better to invest in a proper shaver. You'll simply have to try it out and see if it works. Otherwise, Philips usually offers spare parts, so it might be worth checking out their website or contacting customer support; I think i found the right part and it cost around 18 dollar (www.philips.se/c-p/CP1563_01/multigroom-series-7000-rakhuvud-med-skaerblad). Double-check with the shaver you have, because it's a jungle when it comes to all the series numbers and model years, etc. Unfortunately, I can't access the American Philips website because my computer insists on logging into the Swedish site. As I said, double-check it. I hope I managed to provide some guidance, but it's difficult to answer since we're all different and therefore get different results. Good luck! Feel free to reach out if you have more questions! /Philip

@@Philip.315 thank you so much for help

Hello Richard! Thank you for the question. It entirely depends on what you value most. Is it price, accessories, quality, or innovative solutions? The Braun 5 lacks the locking button and has poorer battery life compared to the Series 9, and there's also a difference in the accessories. I've heard from others that you should get the same accessories between the 9 and the other models, and it's only the Series 9 where you get "pro" blades that provide a better edge cut. Unfortunately, I didn't manage to get any parts that the 5 model has, like the mini foil. I'm not sure if they don't offer that combination/package here in Sweden while Braun does it in other places? The Philips 7000 is a good value for money but may provide a slightly less pleasant experience when it comes to changing parts or ergonomic design. However, you get a good result, and there are plenty of options available. Currently, I mostly use the Braun Series 9 in combination with the Philips OneBlade Pro when I don't have time to shave properly before work. Braun has some things that are so simple yet so effective that the experience, in my opinion, is a bit more enjoyable than with the Philips 7000. I like the fade guards; they provide more than a satisfactory result. I've started to notice the Autosense feature now that I've been using it for a while; it's very unique to have a trimmer that adapts to your needs. Lastly, I find the design pleasant to use. So, my question to you is: what is important to you? Feel free to reach out if you have any further questions. /Philip

@@Philip.315 Hi Philip! Thank you for the speedy response! :) I would say price isn't an issue as long as it is a razor of good quality and which will last me for a couple years. Ideally I'd like to get a razor that will be good for trimming my short beard and also good for body shaving as well (especially near sensitive areas). Would you say that the Braun Series 9 is good for body shaving as well? Can I get a relatively close body shave of 1-2mm? Do you think it will cause any nicking in the sensitive areas with their guard? Or do you think the Philips would be the way to go (or perhaps another razor if you have any suggestions that can do both well)? Thank you so much again! I really appreciate it! :)

@@diante.richard In that case, I would go for the Philips 7000 model, especially if you intend to use it on sensitive areas and you have more accessories that increase the likelihood of meeting your "needs." As I mention in the video, I don't find the model to be a particularly pleasant experience in terms of ergonomics or how to switch between the parts. However, I believe that the Braun 9 might not be exactly what you're looking for. As for the Braun 5, I can't comment since I haven't tested it. Finally, I'd like to add that the lifespan of these devices usually doesn't exceed more than 2-3 years in my own experience. Also, I believe it depends on how careful one is and how well they maintain the trimmer. There's a lot of buildup around the drive shafts, among other areas, which can significantly increase resistance and make it harder for the motor to last in the long run. And this is something I'm not good at maintaining. I hope you found some guidance and didn't become more confused. Good luck, and feel free to reach out if you have more questions. Have a great day! /Philip

Hello there! No, it wasn't the infrared light that caused the ringing in my ears; it was actually stress that triggered it by causing me to clench my jaw and throat while sleeping, as well as grinding my teeth. Both my ENT doctor and dentist told me that such tensions can lead to these types of symptoms, which was triggered by stress in this case. So, my conclusion is that light treatments have actually helped me in the long run. I'll follow up on this video in the summer when I have more time. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

@@Philip.315 thank you so much fot kind brief reply✨. I purchased infrared light as it seems to be beneficial for eustachian tube problems by reducing inflammation and hoping may it will...

Hi there! Thank you for the question. I'm not sure if it was clear in the video, but with this edition of the Beard Trimmer 9 BT9440, it didn't quite meet my expectations , the min foil was not included, You get that feuture to the cheaper models, But you will not get the features as the locking button for the length adjustment wheel, longer battery life or the pro cutting edge parts, that actualy where pretty good. I think I got caught up on the word "Pro" and didn't research properly, and was thinking that you'd get everything with this model. So answer to your question is: No, I haven't tried it. However, I will be recording a session today on the Braun Series X to see if it's better than the Philips OneBlade Pro. Feel free to reach out if you have any further questions. Have a great day! /Philip

@@Philip.315 thats weird because on the braun website it says it comes with a foil shaver attatchment for the 9 series like the one you have

@@user-fg2ts3pg7zyup, it says it comes with it too. The mini foil shaver is one of the only reasons why I want to get this Braun series 9 or the Phillips Norelco multigroom 9000. What did you end up getting?

Hi @johnaspinall4096 ! That's a really good question. Personally, I don't use protective eyewear, but I've been considering getting tanning goggles instead of using the ones that usually come with the devices. I find that the protective glasses that come with red light devices tend to block the eye areas. That's one of the main reasons why I haven't been using them. But there are studies suggesting that it may not be entirely necessary to treat the exact "problem" area to see effects. When it comes to choosing a wavelength, it doesn't make a huge difference; there are good studies ranging from 590nm up to 660nm. I'll include a link to a smaller study specifically on these wavelengths for you. I want to emphasize that you shouldn't use NIR wavelengths (700-1060nm) on the face; only on the upper part of the forehead and the top of the head if you want to stimulate the brain. Feel free to reach out if you have any further questions. I've also compiled a comparison list that i created myself about different red light models with discount codes, which I'll link for you as well. Best of luck! Study: [pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36780572/](pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36780572/) My comparison list: [docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1D4sE4wRMc22BbLB9n0Ls0akBBO_KW1d7H4aceZ4v6ac/edit#gid=53960379](docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1D4sE4wRMc22BbLB9n0Ls0akBBO_KW1d7H4aceZ4v6ac/edit#gid=53960379)

Thank you for the compliment and thanks for the tip. I'll see if I can get hold of the Panasonic model for a good price. I have a golden rule that I don't buy anything unless there's a discount. The model looks interesting in terms of design and accessories. I'll look into it. Have a great day! /Philip

Any update?

Thank you
