Found my answer after a bit more research.
Looks like the main difference is the battery, NiMH vs Li-Ion. Giving the more expensive model an 80min run time instead of 60.
Then there's a few display differences.

also looks like the 7000 isn't waterproof, while the 5000 is

You can get something like the model above for around $55 AUD delivered (currently priced at £19.99 before delivery). And unless I'm missing some major feature (maybe I am), I don't think you need to spend a lot on a beard trimmer. If it has to be plugged in, a simple UK/AU travel adaptor can handle it.
$89.95 seems to be the normal price
The 7000 series seems to be best reviewed. I'm in the market for a new trimmer.
Does anyone know the difference between the $85.00 BT7201/15 and the $130 BT7220/15?
The specs are all listed identically, but obviously the $130 is a newer model… $45 difference. Hmm.
