18 best electric razors

Electric shavers are an automated alternative to manual shaving machines that use electrical energy as their primary source of power. The advantages of these devices include ease of use, efficiency and absolute safety, since the blades are always under remote protection elements.

AT rotary models play the role of such an element with small sector slits, under which the blades are located directly. This configuration of the cutting part is ideal for people with thick bristles, because it allows you to achieve the most smooth shave. On the other hand, owners of sensitive skin will almost certainly face irritation.

Protection element in net The electric shaver is the net itself, under which the blades move in a reciprocating pattern (similar to hair clippers). The bristle enters the cutting zone through small cells and accumulates in the accumulation pocket (emptiness of the cutting part). The only real problem with this design is a shave that is not the reference for cleanliness, but it is ideal for owners of sensitive skin.

To date, the range of electric razors is represented by thousands of models at various levels, and it is almost impossible to make a balanced choice in this situation. After analyzing this market segment, we have compiled for you a rating of the best electric razors, divided into six distinct categories.

The best low-cost electric grid shavers

3 Xiaomi Mijia Portable Electric Shaver

The first representative of the ranking of the best is a unique experiment of the brand Xiaomi, beloved by consumers for high quality shaving and compactness. Mijia Portable Electric Shaver can be taken on any journey, since both the dimensions and the mass of the model (only 100 grams) are completely in order for this.Despite such a miniature view, the built-in electric motor, which operates exclusively on battery power, achieves a speed of 7800 revolutions per minute. Thanks to these indicators, even a single shaving head perfectly copes with its main purpose: user reviews talk about the delicacy and accuracy of shaving even when the battery is inserted (when the engine efficiency drops).

Like all gadgets from Xiaomi (which is primarily a mobile device), this shaver can be charged via USB connection. This is a magnificent experimental model that has managed to reach certain heights in such a brand-specific category.

2 Braun 300s Series 3

Model 2016 release is still one of the leaders in the category of netting razors, and in the near future is not going to part with such a prestigious title. The main advantages of the Braun 300s Series 3 fully rest on the part of the technical achievements. The cutting part of the shaver consists of two floating net heads with a movable shaving unit, which guarantees comfort when shaving the neck and jaw area.

On the front of the Braun 300s Series 3 is a large charging indicator that does not cause any visual damage to the design. This model can be powered both from the mains and from the battery, however, the charging time of the latter to the maximum level is 8 hours. This is quite a long time, considering that the work time is not limited by the most standard 35 minutes. However, consumers are satisfied with everything: according to their reviews, finding something functional for the same money is a very difficult task.

1 Panasonic ES-6003

The electric shaver for men Panasonic ES-6003 was developed as a full-fledged road model with broad functionality, but separately taken characteristics, alas, did not reach the intended one. However, this does not prevent her from leading in the circle of low-end models both in terms of equipment and popularity among consumers. The miniature electric motor of the device is capable of delivering up to 10,000 revolutions per minute, putting three shaving heads in working condition at once. As knives, they use blades with a special angle of sharpening (under 30 degrees), thereby achieving the most complete cutting of hairs from the skin. There is also a trimmer function, and quite tolerable, suitable for carrying out fine trimming of a beard or bristle.

According to users, the only nuance of the Panasonic ES-6003 is the ability to work only on battery. And everything would be fine, but its charge lasts only 21 minutes of work, after which charging requires as much as 8 hours of painstaking waiting.

3 Braun 3000s Series 3

Unlike many other representatives of the average price segment, the Braun 3000s Series 3 boasts a very fast full battery charge time, almost equal to the autonomous operation time. In this case, we are talking about 60 minutes, with the actual possibility of independent work within 45 minutes.It was possible to achieve a similar effect due to the use of a new format battery, which stores energy several times faster. On the basis of the same battery, it was possible to realize the function of fast five-minute charging for one shave.

From the rest of the “set” of design and operational parameters of the Braun 3000s Series 3, we can distinguish the presence of an additional indicator for changing knives, as well as two floating heads on the razor unit. In terms of cost, this model is on the verge between the budget and the middle price segment, receiving an additional portion of approval from happy users.

2 Panasonic ES-RT37

An even more advanced version of the device with a huge charge is the Panasonic ES-RT37, which is able to work off-line for 54 minutes. This figure does not obey even the majority of premium models, not to mention the representatives of the middle price segment. It is also noteworthy that the charging time is only 60 minutes, which indicates a good storage capacity of the lithium-ion battery.

The speed of the Panasonic ES-RT37 engine is 10,000 rpm, which is quite standard for models of this segment. There is a trimmer function, implemented surprisingly well. In general, three floating heads, fixed on a fixed block, are responsible for shaving. According to consumer reviews, this model is a very valuable specimen worthy of nomination as one of the best in its category.

1 Braun 3010BT Series 3 Shave & Style

The Braun 3010BT of the third series came out in several complete variations at once and, by simple coincidence, fell in love with the users exactly in the presented form. While other models of the segment were satisfied only with the presence of razor heads and trimmer, this unit was equipped with five combs for cutting hair, which greatly expanded the range of its capabilities.

Needless to say, without fast recharging with a power scheme only from a battery, this was not enough. The German company has made every effort to create a full-fledged NiMH battery capable of charging before the cut-off in just 1 hour. At the same time, the independent work of the Braun 3010BT Series 3 was a good 45 minutes, which is enough for both shaving and full hair cutting. A peculiar addition to the whole structure was a non-slip insert on the handle, as well as a quick five-minute recharge function for one shave, implemented in other competitive models.

3 Braun 9260s Series 9

By a strange coincidence, almost all of the premium representatives of Braun electric shavers each have two floating shaving heads, and the 9260s Series 9 is no exception to this rule. Globally speaking, it is a new generation device, in which the functions of the indicators are gradually shifted to a digital display. If we touch on the technical side of the issue, everything here remains at the standard level: 50 minutes of work alternate with the hour of the required charge to the maximum, and the voltage applied to the engine can be automatically adjusted within 110-240 volts.

A separate article in the user reviews was the appearance of the Braun 9260s Series 9. Styling for metal looks very advantageous in the electric razor, especially in conjunction with modern standards of light display on a miniature display. Otherwise, this model does not bring anything extraordinary into the segment, and against this background such a high price looks even slightly overestimated.

2 Braun 7899cc Series 7

The official predecessor of the Braun ninth series electric razors has almost the same set of characteristics, and in terms of cost, and at the same time, it does not look any better than its counterpart. However, in matters of customer loyalty, 7899cc turned out to be somewhat higher - the hard work of the German company on ergonomic parameters affected.

According to all the canons of Braun Premium, this model uses only two shaving heads on a fixed razor block. That, however, does not interfere at all with showing her excellent results in terms of cleanliness of shaving. With an actual battery recharge within an hour, an electric shaver can use it for 50 minutes - quite standard results even for the average price segment. The choice of buyers is the Braun 7899cc Series 7 was solely due to the highest degree of reliability, which is not demonstrated even by later representatives of the older series.

1 Panasonic ES-RF31

Quite "pale" in terms of design electric shaver Panasonic ES-RF31 - a real nonsense among their own kind. This is the first relatively inexpensive representative of the premium, the rate of energy reserves of which exceeds its rate of return. Able to work offline for a good 65 minutes, this device charges up to a maximum in just 1 hour, “dropping” the authority of market leader Braun at least a position down.

However, this technical "destruction" of competitors was not limited. All anything, but according to such a unique power scheme, the shaving unit with four shaving heads works, ensuring the rotor rotates at the level of 10,000 revolutions per minute. And, judging by the user reviews, such a "mix" of possibilities leads to excellent results in shaving - for the first time, a razor with a bit of problems even copes with very thick bristles. For such a functional, they are ready to forgive and frankly faded appearance.

3 Remington r95

A miniature rotary electric shaver Remington R95 at the time of release became a real hit of sales, and it was mainly people who were somehow connected with travels. In general, for a miniature "field" device, this model had a fairly advanced razor system. What is worth at least two shaving heads, even if rigidly fixed on a fixed block?

In standalone mode, the Remington R95 can last up to 30 minutes, which, even if the engine speed is deliberately low, lasts for several full shaving sessions. True, in the absence of the possibility of working from a recharge network, one has to wait for a good 8 hours, which, of course, does not suit everyone. However, there are no frank complaints about this model: consumers are sympathetic to both their choice and the capabilities of the device, noting that there are no better alternatives in the segment.

2 "Berdsk" 9

Very good domestic device for men from the brand "Berdsk", whose popularity is unbreakable among the main target audience in the face of people over 45 years. Its range of advantages converges in the presence of three razor heads with a floating system and a moving unit (with adjustable). Plus, it adds solidity and built-in trimmer, which is absent on more presentable foreign models.

The second positive quality of “Berdsk 9” lies in the purity of dry shaving. The negligible revolutions of the engine (only 3700 revolutions per minute) are fully compensated by the number of heads, due to which the device manages to ensure the fullest cutting of hairs. Yes, this leads to a slight irritation on sensitive skin, but the very fact of this substitution is striking. In conclusion, consumers like to notice the very low cost of a razor, which, coupled with all the described "chips", looks very understated.

1 Philips S1310 Series 1000

The Philips S1310 Series 1000 phenomenal shaving system includes three floating heads mounted on an extremely flexible and movable shaving unit. This design allows you to provide the most comfortable shave in hard to reach places, without causing irritation even on sensitive skin. A somewhat illogical solution seems to be the lack of the ability of the shaver to operate from the network, but recently the entire Philips line has been subject to switching to autonomous power sources.

However, for users this nuance does not cause any inconvenience: according to their reviews, one full charge of the battery lasts for 35 minutes of shaving at a rotor speed of about 10,000 revolutions per minute. This combination of heads and speed allows you to achieve maximum shaving results in a matter of moments, which makes it the main contender for leadership in its category.

3 Philips PT711 Series 3000

One of the few representatives of the company Philips, still using the wired principle of power supply. Someone may say that this is old-fashioned and in modern realities looks obviously losing, but in fact this option of work is preferred for home use.

A small omission of the Philips PT711 Series 3000 from a constructive point of view is the rigidly fixed shaving heads (in the amount of 3 pieces), the situation with the delicate operation of which is permitted only thanks to the movable unit. There is a convenient brush to clean the blades, as well as a cover to protect the cutting part. The main justification for the rather high cost of the device is an increased level of reliability, prudently laid by the manufacturer at the design stage. To take this step, Philips made only the need for a compelling competitive parameter, which has not lost relevance to this day.

2 Philips AT756 AquaTouch

The main “feature” of this model lies in the complete invulnerability from the action of water, which, in principle, is not new, but in combination with other characteristics gives a huge advantage. The Philips AT756 AquaTouch is a design on the verge of imaginable limits that combines a very high rotor speed (up to 12,000 revolutions per minute) and is equipped with three shaver elements. The heads are not rigidly fixed in the movable shaving unit, providing the possibility of a small spatial displacement for the repetition of the bend of the neck and jaws.

For consumers, an important advantage of the model was the capacity of the battery, which saves the charge for shaving for 40 minutes. True, it’s not yet possible to get away from the 8-hour charge - this nuance can be considered the only drawback of the AT756 AquaTouch. The rest is a complete harmony of value and functionality, and, consequently, the overall quality.

1 Remington PR1370

Surprisingly well, even against the background of a Philips-level company, the model of the electric shaver Remington PR1370 proved to be, its performance overshadowed by outstanding representatives of famous competitors. The first and most important advantage: 45 minutes of battery life with 4 hours of subsequent recharging to the maximum. The energy efficiency results are amazing, especially given the reduction in the total charge time required by half the standard level.

Along with this, the Remington PR1370 has a trimmer function, and the entire filling lies in a waterproof case. For the smoothness and delicacy of shaving, there are 3 floating heads on the movable block, which are quite pleasant for sensitive skin. The model works exclusively from the battery, but in this case, this nuance does not cause a big negative.In terms of value for money, the PR1370 is probably the best choice at the moment.

Top premium rotary shavers

3 Remington XR1470

The uniqueness of the Remington XR1470 rotary electric razor is entirely enclosed in battery life, which, in this section of cost, only rare Panasonic models managed to get closer to. Nominally referred to as a premium, this unit is something akin to a rolling link that holds the Remington brand among the most powerful global manufacturers.

Here, three sliding heads, mounted on a movable razor block, act as shaving elements. When working out at 60 minutes, a full charge of the XR1470 battery takes only 1.5 hours, and therefore even the function of rapid accumulation of energy for a single shave looks superfluous here. For the rest, there is practically nothing to distinguish in this model: good ergonomics is interspersed with good design, the trimmer function is implemented. True, the package bundle could have been a little richer - alas, it is not enough just a stand for charging consumers.

2 Philips S5672 Series 5000

The high-end model of the Philips electric shaver, despite its age, remains confidently among the best representatives of the premium segment. According to consumers, absolutely everything is wonderful here: the functionality provided, and the external design, and reliability, which is important.

The main advantage of the Philips S5672 Series 5000 can be considered an ideally balanced power supply scheme, which provides a single ratio of charging time to discharge time. In other words, with 60 minutes of possible work on a full battery, the device needs the same amount of time for maximum charge replenishment. In addition, it implements a road blocking mechanism to prevent unintentional activation during transportation. The electric razor also comes with a convenient hard case, which has gained more references in consumer reviews.

1 Philips S9151 Series 9000

Qualitatively different phase of development of rotary shavers Philips is a model S9151, belonging to the premium ninth series. The main feature of this model lies in the maximum information content for the user and ensuring greater safety both during operation and at the stage of transportation. These things are expressed in fairly simple at first glance things: four indicators are built into the razor body at once, which are responsible for notifying about the current charging process, the state of charge in the autonomous mode, low battery life, and also the change of knives.

Among other things, Philips S9151 Series 9000 has the function of blocking the start in case of transportation when traveling. In the general set, in addition to the cover, there is a special nozzle for haircuts, which expands the razor to full haircuts. Otherwise, its quantitative indicators are similar to the Philips S5672 model, with the exception, perhaps, of battery life (here it is 50 minutes with 1 hour of required charging).
