Glossary

Waterproof

Models feature waterproof casing with varying levels of protection, often indicated by two numbers. The first number pertains to dust resistance and is often marked as X. The second number reflects moisture resistance, particularly water. For instance, IPX3 and IPX4 offer splash protection, IPX5 and IPX6 enable shower use, while electric shavers with IPX7 can be submerged underwater for up to 30 minutes.

Number of cuts

The number of cutting movements made by shaver blades per minute. Determines the number of hairs that the device can cut in a given amount of time. The higher the number of cuts, the more efficient and faster the shaving process.

Replacement nozzle model

Model of replacement head(s) compatible with electric shaver. This data will be useful primarily when looking for spare nozzles.

In box

Case. Cases include all kinds of rigid structures for storing a shaver. Cases in the form of handbags made of thick fabric also fall into this category. In addition to reliable storage of the device, they also elevate the model to the highest class. In more low-cost electric shavers, a much more primitive fabric case is included in the package.

Charging stand. A special stand on which the shaver can be installed to charge the batteries. There are no fundamental technical differences between such charging and charging from a power cord, the main difference is that the stand can also be used to store a shaver. Therefore, shavers with a charging stand are well suited for home use.

Wireless charging. A special stand that charges the shaver without a precise connection through the plug — just put the electric shaver on it and the battery pack will automatically start recharging. This saves the user the hassle of connecting wires and reduces wear on the connectors. On the other hand, such a function has a significant impact on the cost of the battle and increases the duration of the charging process itself, since the charging platforms themselves are made low-power for safety reasons.

Self-cleaning station. It is a special stand where the shaver is installed for automatic maintenance. This maintenance, as the...name suggests, primarily includes cleaning — the shaving unit is cleaned of hairs and dust - as well as charging the battery. In addition, self-cleaning systems can provide lubrication and disinfection of the shaving unit, but this function is less common and requires the use of consumables (oil and disinfectant).

— Facial brush. It is convenient to clean the face from the cut bristles with a brush. The brush that comes with an electric shaver usually has a medium bristle length. Some electric shavers are equipped with a universal brush, which is designed for both cleaning the face and combing the beard and mustache.
