As we have already too many cables and chargers in our lives, can someone recommend a shaver/trimmer that has a Type C socket for charging? The only one I found is from Xiaomi Mijia S700 so far but it is only a shaver. Also not very sure about its reliability.

Hi, barber here. Don’t buy a cordless trimmer. They are trash and don’t last. I have experimented with top barber quality cordless versions of their classics and they are garbage and you can’t fix them. The best trimmer on the market is the Andis t-trimmer. All parts are easily replaceable and you can have them serviced by Andis. For anyone reading this who is also wondering about clippers, Andis Masters.

This is not buy it for life. This is buy it until USB D is forced on you.

USB-C is not going anywhere anytime soon.

It’s been constantly revised for the past 8 years.

USB-4 Can do 40Gb/s and do USB-PD at 240W

And it’s mandated by the EU.

Or wait till you get crushed by the pile of chargers and cables. I do not want to carry more cables with me when I travel. Yep, I am sure that a battery operated one is less powered than a wire one, but not everyone has a power socket inside their bathroom. Also, I am not a barber, so the amount pf trimming I need to do is less. My current Remington it on its last days but lasted me more than 10 years and it has a battery! I still, wonder how it managed to work for so long, probably I did not use it often enough.

I am not a barber, but totally agree: buy a corded trimmer.
