Review (5/5): Pricey but worthy !
Ok, first i've gotta say this is my first review of a product ever.. But i felt i had to because i did hesitate a lot to buy this product after a lot of mixed reviews, several visits to stores to see the product itself compare it with others and the fact that it's been less reviewed than the Braun Pulsonic which might reflect in less popularity, etc etc.. i decided to take the risk and go again with Norelco, after all if it didn't work for me i have the warranty to return the product.
And now after the first time I used it.. i can tell you that I'm not planning to return anything and keep it for a long time !! My previous razor was a SPECTRA 8890XL wich was doing good but the plastic thing that holds the head was very fragile and broke for the 3rd time so.. i decided to upgrade.. and i'm very pleased with the results it says as with every Norelco razor that you should give 3 weeks of adjustment so the growth of the hair can be adjusted to the new system... so I can't wait to see how will this perform by the 3rd week :D
I know beards are differents and performance might depend on the shape of the face and kind of facial hair, so here it is: I've got a thick black beard with a skinny and curvy jaw IT DID and deliver really good.
All i can say that is a great shaver.. yes the trimmer is almost invisible but nothing that I can't used to, and as a previous review mentioned if you don't care about the digital display and nice extra lights go with a cheaper version... personally i'm kind of unorganized and always on the run so to know exactly how many minutes are left is a must for me, but again if you can live without all those "lights" go for the other models.
