I bought this razor early on in my wet shave journey and I wanted to wait to give it a decent run to write a review. This razor is hands down my favourite. It is super smooth and comfortable even on the higher plates with what ever your choice of blade (I’ve tried many). It is very well balanced with the right length handle to suit. The finishing of it is perfect for me as it’s not super polished S.D. · fineshave.co.nz

This is the closest shave I've ever gotten from an electric razor. Also the smoothest and quietest experience. This is hands down the closest shave I’ve ever gotten from an electric razor. I’ve owned three different Braun models over the years and this Panasonic outperforms them all. The closeness is noticeably better and it gets to the skin without requiring multiple passes.
