Talking about Braun, I've been disassembling all kind of devices for a few monthes, and you can appreciate differences betweens brands a bit. Braun and a few brands, do have better materials, better internals. I guess 90% of consumers can't give a damn about that but it registered in my head. To the point that I would even start a website about that, some sort of ifixit for everything but phones.

You should. Teardowns on ordinary things is appealing and informative.

I suspect more people than you think would find all that compelling.

Youtube is already filled with that, but it's random in quality.. maybe
Really, I was speaking to quality. If it's good, informative, then heck yeah. I like that stuff.
Please...please start a blog, instagram, Youtube, whatever and post your findings. I've been meaning to purchase old Braun and B&O devices to learn how they're made but the expense is putting me off.

This would be so amazing if you could document your tear downs.

Well, my devices were those people leave on the curb monthly so finding Braun things there is possible (although not regular), B&O on the other hand .. you gotta be reaaaallly pressed to discard anything from them outside.
