The Braun Series 3 ProSkin is a popular choice among those seeking a reliable and affordable electric shaver. This model offers a balance of performance and value, making it a suitable option for many consumers.
Design and Build Quality
The Series 3 ProSkin boasts a sleek and ergonomic design that fits comfortably in the hand. The rubberized grip ensures a secure hold, even when wet. The shaver is well-constructed, with durable materials and a solid feel. While it may not have the premium build quality of higher-end models, it is still a sturdy and reliable device.
Shaving Performance
The Series 3 ProSkin employs Braun's Triple Action Cutting System, which includes three independently moving cutting elements. This system effectively captures and cuts hair in multiple directions, providing a close and comfortable shave. The shaver's floating head allows it to adapt to the contours of your face, minimizing skin irritation.
While the Series 3 ProSkin generally delivers a satisfactory shave, it may not be the best choice for those with very thick or coarse facial hair. In such cases, the shaver might struggle to cut through the hair efficiently, requiring multiple passes. However, for individuals with average to light beard density, the Series 3 ProSkin performs admirably.

Additional Information
Get back 100% performance, for a fraction of the original cost. Braun recommends changing your shaver’s foil and cutter block every 18 months to maintain maximum performance for a perfect shave every day. Over this time your Braun shaver will cut an average of 6,000,000 hairs. In accomplishing this substantial task, the cutting parts will gradually wear out and your shave may become less close and comfortable.
