I've only had this a few days, but I've used Braun shavers for at least 25 years. This one replaces a Series 9 I wore out. To be clear, this shaver is significantly better than the Series 9. It's difficult to tell what Braun did to make such a marked improvement. Some say it's the foil, well it's not just that, because I had a Series 9 pro foil on my Series 9 AND it was only 3 weeks old, so I am using it on my Series 9 pro+. The shave is significantly closer and faster. In particular, it gets long hair better, it shaves my neck better. I've been using a razor to clean up my neck hairs, with the pro+ I have not needed it. The sound is the same, the overall configuration is familiar and comfortable. The battery life is significant and will last almost two weeks for normal daily shaving. With the charging carry case, you will easily get three solid weeks without AC on a full charge in both units. The trimmer is better, positions better from the shaver head is wider, and the blades stand out more making cutting sideburns and pesky nasal hairs easier. Is the Braun Series 9 Pro+ perfect, nearly so. When used with a little shaving cream and hot water, I can't tell the difference between it and a blade shave. And that, after all, is the measure of success. I've attached two photos, one of the front with my old Series 9 and the back of them with trimmers up.

I have been using a shaver forever and never got the results I was looking for. My brother in law recommended this Braun and it literally saved my appearance. Wife loves it too

Best Razor I’ve ever owned! It’s expensive, but worth every penny! I highly recommend it!!

I’ve been using the Braun Series 9 PRO+ for a few weeks now, and it’s honestly the best electric shaver I’ve ever owned. The shave is incredibly close and smooth, even on thicker or flat-lying hairs, and it doesn’t irritate my skin at all. I have sensitive skin, so this was very important to me. The SmartCare Center is a big plus — it cleans, dries, and charges the shaver automatically, so it always feels fresh and ready to use. The battery life is excellent, and the digital display is very helpful. I also like that it works perfectly for both dry and wet shaving. The build quality feels solid and premium, and the shaver is comfortable to hold and easy to control. Yes, it’s expensive, but you really feel the difference compared to cheaper models. It saves time, gives professional-level results, and feels like a long-term investment. Highly recommend this shaver to anyone who wants top performance, comfort, and reliability.

This is a big razor. I upgraded from a lower Braun model and this one is a better razor, but it is bigger in the hand. This model still uses the same clean and renew cartridges which is good, and the cleaner appliance is slightly smaller so that is also good. This model includes a travel case with battery. It is big and heavy, but is still very useful. I charged my razor for a full week from the case and it still had battery life left so I think I can trust it for a 2 week trip with no worries. This is close to the top of the price range for electric razors but it is worth it.
