Norelco has impressed me with the batteries in this shaver. This is my fourth cordless razor and by far the longest lasting on a charge. I can easily get a month on a charge and the best any of the others could manage was a bit over two weeks. Shaving is fast and the heads glide smoothly. It works better on sweaty skin than my previous razors did. The cut is good, but I don't think as good as my older Norelco. I think the fact that the heads are in a larger mount, and there is a wider margin around the outside of the heads causes this. It also makes it hard to get close enough under your nose. That said, it probably is why the heads seem to glide easier across your skin. The touch switch is nice, the charging stand is nice too for using at home. I would like to have a plug in socket for the cord on the razor, for use on extended travels. Having to take the stand along is a bit awkward. Overall it's a very good razor and a good value.
Pros: excellent battery life, fast and easy to use
Cons: no cord plug on the razor
I would recommend this to a friend!

I like this razor

This razor has met all my expectations and gives me the type of shave I really like.
I like my Norelco Wet dry shaver for being able to use in the shower. I seldom stand in front of the sink to shave anymore. It is very convenient to lather my face with a bar of soap and shave away. I am not the kind of guy who gets a 5 oclock shadow everyday. With that being said my only problem I experience is shaving my neck. I have to go over my neck at least 2 times resoaping to get all the whiskers. Shaving the neck with an electric razor has always been an issue. I also question the true battery life after a full charge. they state 40-45 mins but I think half that time is more realistic. I only use it for 5-7 mins at a time and it has been fine. But you do need to put it in the charger after every use.
Pros: like to use it in the shower
Cons: i always found electric razors not so good under t
This is a great shaver for a quick shave. After one month I am still on the first charge. It shaves close in areas it can reach but a little hard to get close cuts in front of ear and neck under ear area. Not as close or accurate as a razor, but a whole lot faster and convenient. I have a very fast growing heavy beard, so no shave lasts long anyway.
Pros: fast and convenient, battery holds very long charge ( one month )
Cons: hard to get close to front of ear & neck under ear
This razor is easy to use and handles better than my old Norelco razor.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Pros: close shave ever
Cons: none
I would recommend this to a friend!
