Personal care appliance for accurate beard styling and dependable cordless use, Braun Beard Trimmer Series 5. Enjoy cleaner lines and consistent lengths for a more confident, groomed appearance. Is the combination of precision controls, waterproof cleaning and long runtime the right choice for your routine?

⚡ At a Glance
  • Cutting Precision: Ultra Sharp Blade with fine-toothed geometry for even, snag-free trimming
  • Best for: Men who shape beards and maintain precise stubble at home
  • Not ideal for: Those who need a full-head hair clipper or salon-grade grooming system

Ultra Sharp Blade, 40 length settings with 0.5 mm steps, and PrecisionWheel with PrecisionLock combine for repeatable results. The trimmer is 100% waterproof and runs up to 120 minutes on a Li‑Ion battery.


Accurate, repeatable cuts – with PrecisionWheel and PrecisionLock

PrecisionWheel selects among 40 length settings in 0.5 mm increments, while PrecisionLock secures the chosen setting during use. The mechanical lock prevents accidental setting shifts when manoeuvring around contours.

Fine, consistent lengths are simple to maintain, making it straightforward to recreate short stubble or defined beard edges every time.

Catch tricky hairs efficiently – thanks to Ultra Sharp Blade

Ultra Sharp Blade uses closely spaced, finely honed blades to trap and slice hairs cleanly on each stroke, reducing pull and repeated passes. Blade design aims for even contact across varied hair thicknesses.

Fewer passes mean less skin irritation and a faster trim, useful when tackling dense or wiry patches around the jaw and neck.

Wet and dry grooming with long runtime – with waterproof build and Li‑Ion battery

100% waterproof construction allows rinsing under running water for quick cleaning and wet use, while the long-lasting Li‑Ion battery supports up to 120 minutes of cordless runtime. Battery chemistry sustains longer run times between charges.

Rinse after each session for hygienic upkeep, and rely on extended cordless use for several grooming sessions before needing to recharge.
