Loving this shaver!!
5Had the Braun Series 3 Shave&Style 3010BT for a few weeks now, it's lightweight, smart and ultra efficient. My normal razor which was fairly expensive can't cope with 3 days of growth I would normally have to wet shave first. The Braun 3010BT had no such problem giving me a close clean shave in half the normal time. Easy to clean, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to friends and family. Shame it doesn't come with a carry bag to keep the razor & trimmers all in one place.

Up to the task - no matter the length!!
4WHAT’S IN THE BOX Opening the Braun Series 3 Shave&Style 3010BT, the first thing I was struck by is how compact everything is. You get a full electric shaver, precision trimmer AND basically a pair of clippers in a small box about the size of an A4 piece of paper. The shaver itself is a good, solid size, fairly weighty in your hands but immediately feeling comfortable right away. The ergonomics of the design felt really impressive, and the soft grip was noticeable as soon as I picked it up. I was really pleased with the feel of the shaver. You also get the usual micro brush for cleaning the shaver head, and interchangeable clip for trimming, and 5 different comb clips – from numbers 1 to 5 – so you can style your beard, sideburns, even the hair on your head to the length you want. They come with a small plastic bag to keep them all together, but I didn’t think this was particularly impressive compared with the design of the shaver. There was also no case for the shaver, which could have been a nice addition. You get a standard charger the shaving outlet plug – so if you want to charge if via a regular plug, you’ll need an adapter. I always find this annoying, as I think shaving plugs are outdated – especially in homes. Personally, I think adapters should be included. But I did like the springy cord that was on the charger – this means you can stretch and pull as needed, without having to worry about wires getting tangled – a simple but effective touch. PREPARATION AND CHARGING The charger comes with some charge on it, so you can get stuck in straight away. I also really liked that it does have a quick charge function too – so if you’ve forgotten to charge it but are in rush, you only need to plug it in for 5 minutes to get enough battery power for a full shave. This makes a difference. The full charge is also fairly quick too, only taking a couple of hours, and from what I’ve seen after two weeks of using, the battery power lasts a long time. Even when it starts flashing red, you’ve got a least another couple of shaves before it goes dead. The shaver is best used on dry skin – which means it’s simple to just pick up and start using – ideal for anyone short on time. You can also use it wet as well, so it’s great for use in the shower too. To use the trimmer or comb attachments, you do need to change the head of the shaver completely, pulling off the foil razor and attaching the trimmer head. This is quick to do, but I did find getting the trimmer head off the and foil back on was sometimes a bit tricky – it doesn’t seem to squeeze from the sides as easy as going about it the other way around. Once you have the trimmer head on, attached the combs is really simple – they just slide on or off. Because there isn’t a huge difference between the sizes, you will need to look carefully at the numbers – they’re engraved in black on black combs so could be difficult to read – perhaps if they were white it would be easier. THE SHAVE On to the shave itself, and I have no complaints at all. For the first time with any electric or manual razor, I can completely shave, trim and style my full beard without needed to use two different devices. I use one of the combs to get the length I want, switch down to the precision trimmer to shorten my moustache and define some clear lines, and then change the head to the foil shaver to get a close shave across my neck. The shaver feels great in your hand, a really impressive ergonomic design, and the razor is designed well to glide across the skin – with each attachment doing its job. THE RESULTS I’ve been using the Braun Series 3 Shave&Style 3010BT for over two weeks now, and have been extremely impressed. I love the trimmer and comb attachements – it’s perfect for anyone with a moderate beard that wants to keep it neat and in check. I’ve used both wet and dry, and it hasn’t caused any kind of irritation or blemishes on my skin. The only downside I’ve found is that if you miss a longer hair with the precision trimmer, the foil shaver will likely glide over and won’t get it – so you need to swap back to trimmer head to get it. This can be a little frustrating if you’re in a rush. So with a few minor tweaks and improvements to the attachments, perhaps an integrated trimmer for the hairs you miss, this shaver would be outstanding. As it stands though, it’s still an extremely competent, all in one shaver that does exactly what you need it to. Whatever amount of growth you have – this is the trimmer for you! Definitely recommended.

Braun 3 in 1 s3 shave and style
3After using this product for a few weeks now I can say it's a decent piece of kit. Out of the box it feels sturdy and well made. Although it doesn't shave as close as wet shaving it still does a pretty good job. It only takes a few minutes to have a decent shave with it. As you can use it wet or dry is another bonus. It's at home in the bathroom or in my kit bag. The only negative I could find was it only came with a two pronged plug, and as I don't have a shaver plug socket in my bathroom it was a bit inconvenient, but as an adapter can be bought for a few pounds its not a big problem. All in all this is a good shaver that is easy to use.

A Worthy Bit Of Kit
3Having only had this for a week I've not had a lot of opportunity to use the product, so realistically I want to start with my first impressions. Straight out of the box and this is a nice looking shaver, it's clean and modern, it comes with a decent selection of heads and combs which should give it a good level of versatility. Picking up the shaver for the first time it feels nice in the hand, there's a reasuring weight and sturdiness to the product​ that really gives it a feeling of quality. Normally I prefer the closeness of a wet shave but using this for the first time really surprised me, for an electric shaver this really does provide a really nice close shave. The fact that this can be used both wet and dry makes it really handy to just leave in the bathroom and pick it whenever it feels like I need a top up. Overall a fairly impressive bit of kit that performs very well. Whilst not quite as close as a wet shave the ease of use, versatility and just general usefulness of this product make it a worthy addition to anyone's bathroom routine.

It comes with a handy little bag to keep the 5 trimmer combs and cleaning brush together, the razor its self is a good size and weight and looks really smart. The shaver head moves with the structure of your face leaving a nice clean smooth shave. All in all a really great looking and practical razor set. A must have!

I am not a hairy man...
5...but what hair I do have has the tendency do be rather unruly. As such, my general "man-scaping" routine varies somewhere between awkward wet shaves, haphazard pluckings, and my personal favourite; leave it until someone complains. So you can imagine my hesitance when opting to use such a professional looking multifeatured piece of grooming kit as the Braun Shave&Style. I have always thought that these electric shavers were the reserve of the real manly men, who I imagine are forced daily to use every bit of available technology to ardously reclaim their cheeks from the constant advances of their lumberjack-esque super-beards. Upon selecting the appropriate attachment I was pleasantly surprised to find how easy it was to get going, and before I knew it, my face was in the most presentable state is seen it in for a while. A mere matter of minutes was all it took to get myself looking clean and sharp, which usually would be good thing, although on this occasion I was left dissapointed, mainly because by this point I was enjoying my new toy, and really wanted to see what it could do. So I took it to the shower. Waterproof? Check. Easy to hold, even when wet? Affirmative. Does it cut through hair like a hot knife through butter? Not the best metaphor but yeah it does! And it's just so easy to use, I even recruited my girlfriend to get at the places I can reach, and for her to use it on me without a visit to A+E after is a testament to good design. I really couldn't find fault with it. An adapter for charging wouldn't hurt, but you can pick one up for next to nothing. Overall I have to say that I'm impressed. I've gone from thinking that if never need an electric razor, to wondering why I bothered so long without one. If you're a regular groomer who doesn't have a lot of time to spare, the Braun does everything you'd need and more. If like me (untill recently!) you think the Braun would me surplus to requirements, I urge you to give it a go. If you have more hair than you want, whether it be one or two, or a whole rugs worth, the Braun S3 might be a real game changer for you, but at the very least will shave a few minutes off your morning routine.

Awesome shave
5Just tried the new Braun Series 3 ProSkin razor and it is the best shave I've had for a long while. I normally use a manual razor but decided to try this razor after it was sent to me. The precision trimmer and 5 trimmer combs make it easy for you to get a really close shave without any irritation what so ever. Had a awesome close shave without any bumping or scratching the skin. The cleaning brush makes it super easy to clean within a few seconds after a shave. Making a tiresome clean super easy. Would definitely remommded to anyone.

Braun Series 3 Shave&Style 3010BT
5This is absolutely fantastic shaver, I was very impressed by it. It is very comfortable to use, I love the rubber sides for a better grip in the shower. I have always struggled to find something to shave with as I've got sensitive skin, razors caused rash on my skin and other cheap shaver that I've tried has basically shredded my skin. This shaver is definitely worth to be tried, and I already have recommended it to my friends.

Best razor I have ever used
5The Braun Series 3 shaver/razor is the ideal 3-in-1 grooming tool. The razor comes with a little bag to keep the 5 trimmer combs and cleaning brush together, the razor its self is a good size and looks applealing. I shave my beard once a week but this fantastic new razor has made it much more of an enjoyable task! I mostly use an electric razor (I have never used one in the shower before) I used it with foam and it was smooth and glided nicely. It's very comfortable to use and I thought the rubber sides are a nice touch for a good grip in the shower. I have also used this razor out of the shower which was also amazing and this is the best razor I have ever used. I did prefer using it in the shower though as it was extremely smooth and comfortable without leaving any irritation what so ever. The five trimmer combs makes it easy to have a close shave or leave a slight bit of stubble. The cleaning comb also came in handy as it made it so easy to clean the razor in just a few seconds. I would recommend this razor to anyone who uses a manual OR an electric razor as it is so versatile I believe it is something everyone would enjoy using. I will denitley reccomend this product to my friends and brothers.

Well made shaver. Not great performance
2I tend to shave once every 10 days using a traditional wet shave method, rather than electric shaver as I have never really had satisfactory results from them. So I was intrigued to know how the Braun would handle a 10 day thick beard. The shaver arrived with the following: Braun Series 3 ProSkin razor Exchangeable shaver head Exchangeable precision trimmer 5 trimmer combs Soft bag for combs Protective cap Cleaning brush Smart plug for automatic 100-240 voltage adjustment The actual shaver is well made, feels decent quality and comes with a lot of different shave heads/combs. After a fairy quick charge I began with the beard trimmer. The various combs worked well and were easy to fit, allowing for a reasonably successful tidying of the beard. As I worked through the comb heads, I could see a difference in the amount being trimmed. Unfortunately, towards the end it got a bit too close and ended up with a patchy effect, meaning that It was time for a 'clean' shave! After a very simple switch of the shave head I began trying for a clean shave. It was much less painful than previous electric shavers that I have tested and the waterproof nature meant that it stayed clean. Unfortunately it just doesn't get close to a proper wet shave. After shaving with it I was left with a stubbly feel (like 1-2 days after a wet shave). In summary, it's a well made bit of kit and will do a good job of thinning/trimming a beard but will not do a great job in replacing a traditional wet shave for a clean feel.
