If it weren’t for the Panasonic ES-LS9A, we’d be crowning this the new king of shavers. You may also want to consider the ergonomics of the electric razor’s handle since grip comfortability plays a large role in your shaving experience. Some shavers use a special technology that allows each shaving head to move independently from the others. This means that each head can move in eight directions to more closely match the contours of your face and neck, which means you’re more likely to get a perfect shave. Getting a nice, clean shave is important, whether you’re heading to work for the day, preparing for a date night or attending a formal function. Even if you don’t go for the totally clean-shaven look all the time, it’s still important to keep your facial hair nice and tidy.
To be honest, we doubted Panasonic could improve on the ES-LV9Q. In fact, adding a sixth cutting blade to the LV9Q’s five seemed a little like a gimmick. Panasonic’s previous flagship shaver gave an almost flawless, super-smooth shave every time, thanks to an ingenious pivoting head, a density sensor and a cutting system that worked at 70,000 actions per minute.
That’s a particular shame since it’s so strong on looks, charging, and portability, and so this could still be a good choice for anyone who wants a snazzy shaver and doesn’t mind making a few extra passes every time in return. The trick is that it senses and adapts to the density of your beard, while the high-precision floating head gets as close as possible to the skin. We usually take all the talk of NanoTech Dual Precision bladed and 150,000 cutting actions per minute with a pinch of salt, but the tech in the Series 9000 seems incredibly effective. Of course, it’s incredibly expensive, but if you want the best, then this is it. It definitely looks and feels the part, with premium materials and a lightweight but tough construction. Yet what really sells this shaver is the sheer quality of the shave.
These electric shavers feature low battery indicators and are rechargeable. Several models carry a cleaning system that automatically cleans – charges and renews your device. To get the most out of your day in and day out, make sure to replace blades and foils every couple of months. Browse through the shaver accessories category and find disposable foil cartridges, micro-screens and cutters. Remington has produced some good low-cost rotary shavers in the last few years, but the R6 Style Series Aqua tops them all with features you don’t usually get at this price point. For a start it’s waterproof, so you can use it wet or dry, with gel or foam or in the shower.
It’s the best premium shaver we’ve tested without a sky-high price. The new Series 7 70-N7200C is – against the odds – even better. The blades seem to stay sharper for longer – Gillette claims that they can last for up to six months – and you can get a good 50 minutes of trimming and shaving from a single charge.
