Been shaving for 45 years, and mostly with Panasonic shavers. They are by far the best shavers made. I have 4 Panasonics in my collection right now... the ES8249, ES-LF51 ES-LA93 and the new ES-LV97. Whats nice about Panasonic is that the charger/cleaning station can be used interchangeable with almost any of it models in a pinch. I've used Braun, Reminington and most the top brands and Panasonic is the best, IMHO. The Braun had an annoying vibration to it and not as smooth as the Panasonics. My current shaver is a ES LA93 which is very good but only has 3 blades The ES-VS97 in new and improved, and I mean that literally. The 5 blade head are smooth and soft, and cut with less swipes than the ones with 3 blades. The pop up trimmer is a big improvement over older models, as it locks in place moving in either direction. Lastly, cosmetically it is much nicer looking with a matte black finish.Read full review

This razor simply didn't provide complete shaves and left many areas of stubble. This is after using it for approximately 5 minutes to shave. Tried it with shaving cream but it didn't give any better results. Some areas of the face would be a clean shave and others not even close. I also studied the manual and found it to reveal an interesting component to the mechanics of the shaver. It states that the Lithium Ion battery has an expected lifetime of 3 years. It then goes on to state that the battery cannot be replaced by the consumer. So that tells me that I have a shaver with a 3 year lifetime expectancy. Fortunately I was able to return and received a refund.

Love this razor. I've used all types of razors and the Arc 5 gives a smooth tight shave in half the time any other razor I've used. Easy to clean and lasts quite a few shaves in single charge. I shave my head and face every day and this razor has made shaving a fast easy job with great results.

Comparing to several different brands and types _ over several years. Senior guy, medium beard, some facial /neck scarring, roughness. Very smooth result with minimum retrace steps. Extra blades cover all areas quickly, yet comfortably. Very pleased.
