Features and Specifications Analysis


Although the new Braun Series 9 shaver doesn’t come with any extra items than the older 9290cc shaver, it comes with some significant upgrades in the features and mechanism. Let’s analyze the product deeply before judging it.

32bit Processor:

Braun used a new 32-bit processor in their new Series 9 and Series 8 shavers.

The older Series 9 shavers and other premium shavers generally use an 8-bit processor, whereas the 32-bit refers to pretty much power.

The upgraded processor can process more data and make the shaving result more efficient than the older ones.

Powerful Motor:

Inside the Braun 9370cc shaver, there is a mighty Synchronize motor. This motor allows the blade to vibrate at a mind-baffling speed and create 40,000 cross-cutting actions per minute.

When some of the best electric shavers for men are available vibration at about 15,000 to 18,000 times per minute.

Everything I had to say positively about the latest model is still true for me. Personally, I love the matte finish, the perfect shape, and the size.

Wet/Dry (Waterproof):

Cleaning with water and wet shaving with Braun 9370cc

The Braun 9370cc electric shaver is fully waterproof and highly competent for wet and dry shaving. You can rinse it with direct water and wash it with your hand; it is allowed after every use.

Every electric shaver has a common interface, dry shaving, which gives very comfortable and closest dry shaves. This shaver also has a wet shaving feature. You can have a wet shave in your shower every time.

If you intend to use shaving cream, foam, and gels like manual razors, you can do it with this machine easily.

Close and Comfortable Shave:

Close and Comfortable shave with braun series 9 9370cc electric shaver

If you like close shaves and use manual razors, then you should try this electric shaver at least once. In each wet and dry shaving test, the Braun 9370cc performed implausibly well.

It gives incredibly close shaves, even ingrown hairs, proven on three-day beards. After a close shave with this machine, we bet you do not need to return to the manual razors.

Braun discovered this model, considering skin comfort for any skin type. This is a very comfortable shaver and the most comfortable shaver ever Braun made.

When you hold the device and make some strokes, you ought to understand there is something more special on your hand than all the other electric shavers ever you tried.

It has flexible blades that go ups and down according to passing areas and is mainly responsible for highly comfortable shaving.

Clean & Charge:

Charging system of Braun Series 9 9370cc

The Braun Series 9 electric shavers are very easy to clean and charge.

This Braun 9370cc shaver comes with a 5-action Clean & Charge station, which hygienically cleans the device, charges, lubricates, dries, selects the cleaning program, and dries at the touch of a button.

It also has a quick charge option at the bottom of the handle. You can plug the charging cord directly into the power, attach it to the quick charging plug, and get enough fuel for a full shave within 5 minutes.

You can clean the device manually without the cleaning and charge station if you have a hurry. Just remove the fuel cap and clean the shaver head with the cleaning brush provided with the shaver in the box and also shake the fuel cap to clean the blades.

Fortunately,  for being fully waterproof, you can directly rinse it into the water and clean it easily.

Power Source:

The Braun 9370cc shaver runs on a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery, which offers fully cordless use. The average battery runtime is 60 minutes on a 1-hour charge.

The older Series 9 models, Braun Series 9 9290cc and the Braun Series 9 9095cc featured a rechargeable battery that provided 50 minutes of cordless runtime.

With the clean & charge unit, it becomes fully charged within 1 hour, and there is another option for quickly charging the battery with a direct power connection by the charging cord.

It has an LED Battery life display on the handle, indicating battery and charge runtime, hygiene indication, and travel lock indicator.

From what you can understand, when you need to charge the device, and how much fuel you have to perform.

LED Display:

This shaver has an LED display, showing me the amount of charging in the battery. So, I never have to worry about if it has enough charge to complete a shave.

The display also has two other indicators, there is a cleaning indicator to know when it requires a clean and the ‘travel look’ so that it doesn’t power itself on when it is put in your briefcase while traveling.

Special SyncroSonic Technology:

The shaver comes with a high-power motor and four different cutting elements. As a result, it will catch many hairs in fewer strokes.

The Braun 9370cc electric shaver has Intelligent SyncroSonic technology with The synergy of 4 specialized cutting elements and intelligent Sonic Technology, which offers 40,000 cross-cutting actions per minute. The technology allows the device to capture different types of hair.

This is very good for sensitive skin as well as thicker hair.

Quadruple Action Cutting System:

4 cutting elements of braun series 9 9370cc electric shaver

Braun advertises that they used 5 shaving elements on the Series 9 shavers, where I found 4 actual cutting elements.

The cutting elements are engineered intelligently to make the most advanced and efficient shaving results.

There are 2 outer Optifoils, 1 direct and cut trimmer, and 1 special hyper lift and cut trimmer on the head.

The OptiFoils are specialized for cutting hairs from the skin level and making very close shaving results.

Braun used hexagonal-shaped holes in the OptiFoil elements to capture more hairs than the regular rounded holes.

The Direct & Cut trimmer has been designed for capturing and lining the hairs that grow in different directions and cutting them to direct the hairs to the OptiFoils.

And then the OptiFoils do their duty. The HyperLift & Cut trimmer is the unique technology used in the Braun Series 9 that Braun designed for capturing and cutting flat-lying hairs and longer hairs.

You’ll find a stainless steel element between the Direct & cut trimmer and the first OptiFoil called Skin Guard.

Braun considers the skin guard as a shaving element, so they advertise the 5 shaving element’s terminology.

But these are not the actual 5 shaving elements that of the bulky shavers Panasonic arc5.

However, all the shaving elements of Braun Series 9 9370cc work together to make efficient shaves with the most advanced shaving comfort.

10-D Pivoting Head:

The Braun Series 9 9370cc shaving head and its shaving elements are flexible, altogether flexing in 10 directions.

The head can swivel left, right, back, and forth; the shaving elements can independently move up and down, making the shaving process super flexible.

Pivoting head technology is useful for reducing wrist work and reducing the shaving session.

And moreover, only a flexible head can ensure comfortable shaving processes. In this field, the Braun 9370cc deserves great admiration.

Precision Timer:

It has a precision trimmer that can trim and give quick final touches to your sideburns and mustache.

But personally, I don’t prefer using it to trim thick beards because this will make the blade dull sooner than we expected.

Multi Head Lock:

The head of this shaver can be locked at five different angles. It offers ultimate precision.

While you are shaving the jawline area and then passing to different angles while you reach your neck to get dynamic results, you can use a particular angle.

In shaving time, if you frequently have to lock and unlock the shaver head, this feature will save you from this disadvantage.

Built Quality

Built Quality of Braun 9370cc electric shaver

Braun 9370cc has an attractive and sleek design. Braun designed this model by considering the ultra-modern user interface with high-quality matte chrome plastic.

It has a charcoal, dark gray mixing body, and a gray and black cleaning unit.

If we compare the Braun series 9 to other electric shavers from Braun, this one is more advanced and attractive than the others.

The design is very user-friendly to grip it and stroke from any angle. The device’s dimension is 6.1 x 2.7 x 8.7 inches, weighing only 2.6 pounds.

It has a pivoting head to reach hard-to-touch areas and an LED display, making the device look gorgeous.

The handle has a rubber grip as when you hold the shaver correctly, even in a wet shave, this will protect the shaver from slipping in case your hand is slippy.

Performance

Before buying an electric shaver, it’s important to know the shaving performance of the shaver from an expert or someone who has previous experience with the shaver.

I tried the shaver from all angles to justify the advantages, disadvantages, and final shaving results.

I’m providing my experience separately in every aspect for easy understanding.

#Closeness

Many shavers make a much close shave, as Panasonic Arc5 is better. But it also has some reason to feel discomfort with this. I have difficulty getting close shaves above my upper lip with the Arc5. But with this shaver, I think the problem almost goes. So, I think it is one of the closer shavers.

#Comfort

With its combination of various features and factors, the shaver comfortably finishes its work. I call this shaver king of comfort because of its amazingly comfortable performance with super flexible shaving elements. If you have sensitive skin and feel razor burns, try this shaver at least once to check its comfort.

#Shaving Longer Hair

This shaver is good for shaving long whiskers. Sometimes when I forget to shave for 2-3 days, this shaver never gives me any experience with pulling or yanking.

#Long Hair Trimmer

I only use the trimmer when I want to shape my sideburns or beard, and it takes me a lot to do with the Braun 9370cc. This trimmer works faster, but the performance of this trimmer could have been a lot better. However, it’s enough for the final touches after every shave.

To sum up, the shaver provided me with very close shaves with the highest-end comfort level that is highly recommended for sensitive skin.

  • Extremely Close Shave.
  • 10-D Pivoting Head.

Verdict

Braun Series 9 is the highest-end electric shaver line known for the most expensive shaver model.

One of the latest Braun Series 9 models, the Braun 9370cc is undoubtedly one of the best electric shavers in shaving performance.

This premium shaver is for men who like foil-type shavers, providing close shaving performance with maximum skin comfort.

A cheap electric shaver also can provide close and comfortable shaves, but the difference is significant, and that is why Braun charges very high.

If you want to upgrade your shaving experience, this is the best electric razor you can choose. I tried to cover each and every topic of this shaver in this Braun 9370cc review.

  1. I’m using Bruan Series 7 790cc for 2 years. I got an outstanding service from this and the build quality is pretty good. I changed the shaving head only once in this 2 years. Although this is not a wet and dry featured shaver, I’m quite satisfied with this shaver as wet and dry feature is not a big deal for me because I prefer dry shave to wet shave. On the other hand, different brands like Braun, Panasonic, Philips are taking an extra amount of price for the wet and dry feature. But when I compared my shaver with my friend’s new shaver Braun series 9 9095cc, I found the build quality of series 9 is worse than mine. So I think Braun series 7 790cc is the best electric shaver at an affordable price.

    • Hi Zayn
      We respect your preference. And the Braun series 7 790cc electric shaver is really a good shaver. But we do not think the build quality of the series 9 9095cc is bad.

  7. I’ve been using a Braun 760cc for almost 4 years now and considering an upgrade. I think the 9330cc might be the way to go.
    I do use the feature on the 760 that enables increasing the strength of the razor for 3 settings and I know there are newer models that have 5 settings instead of 3.
    Would love to hear your thoughts.
    thank you,

    • Hi Jim,
      Obviously Braun Series 9 models have more settings and features than the Braun Series 7 models. The 760cc is a very old model of Braun Series 7 and it’s really a good shaver though. However, upgrading from an older Series 7 model to a newer series 9 model is definitely a good decision if there is no problem with the budget. Along with more headlock settings, you’ll find the series 9 shaver more user-friendly and comfortable. So, I fully support your thought to upgrade.

      By the way, the 9330 is a solo model(9330s) and the 9370, 9385, and 9390 are CC(with cleaning and charging station) models.

      -Thank you.
