Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this shaver when I thought I had lost the charger to my older Philips Norelco shaver. Now I have a spare.
I initially was interested in purchasing this model, due to its stylish packaging, but also hoping it was going to perform well.
Now that I've had it for a number of months, I am pleased to say, that I get an exceptionally close shave, and I don't have to worry about waking anyone up when shaving early in the morning, because the shaver is relatively quiet. Cleaning is also a breeze. I just rinse the head under running water for a few seconds, and I'm done.
Overall, a great shaver, and it looks good standing on my counter.
Pros: quiet, close shave, easy to clean
Cons: none so far
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have used all brands of electric shavers. I stuck with Norelco brands because they last and do the job right! I have yet to find a flaw with this product. This new model is much more efficient and quieter.
This shaver is even smoother than my arcitec 1050. The charge is for one full hour, and the display counts down how much time you have left. Overall the best shaver I have ever used
Pros: the trimmer is part of the shaver
I would recommend this to a friend!

This electric razor gives me the closes shave,without skin burn. I love it.
Easy to handle and use, sleek design, Quick charging but not very impressive shave over time, esp under jaw area it has a hard time picking the tiny hair. You would have to use the razor to mark side burns and clean up the tiny hair under mandible-neck area.
Pros: quick charging very impressive, design, light weight
