Customer Ratings & Reviews

Brilliant. Panasonic shavers are the best. The battery lasts for 6-8 shaves. The foil and blade cutters are the best for close shaves.

Amazing shaver. Very effortless and efficient reaching for hard to get spots. I am very happy with my purchase.

I have very thick facial hair and this powerful razor handles it well. You get many shaves off a single charge and the flip up trimmer works great.

My review is in between Norelco-Panasonic, since I always used Norelco brand as my shaver, but my skin was tired of long time to finish an ok shave, pulling facial hair, going to the same spot over and over and over again. After months of research and reviews I decided to go with Panasonic A5 best decision in my 56 years old. Positive: 1) smooth and precise cut, you see the perfect shave in a soft touch on your face. 2) quit no noise like my Different Norelco shavers. 3) the time that I spent with my new Panasonic to get a perfect shave is 100% faster than Norelco. 4) Panasonic is super ergonomic, amazing gripping and fit in my hand so confortable. 5) Panasonic is very light weight, 6) Panasonic gives me a super clean and immaculate shave that I never have with Norelco. 7) it comes with a very nice travel case. 8) best decision and purchase ever, what a difference.

Gives a nice, close shave that doesn’t irritate the skin afterwards and is easy to clean afterwards

This is my second electric shaver. This shaves much closer than my 3 head Norelco. Also cuts faster, almost half the time. Very easy to clean. Bought it on sale so it was a great price.

I’ve had two previous Panasonic razors prior to this one and have always liked them. I was a little skeptical when I first saw this one due to the large number of blades. Looked like overkill to me. However, it’s extremely quiet, and gives and amazing shave. Battery lasts a really long time. You can hear it change speeds depending on the thickness of your beard. Overall a great razor. Very glad I purchased it.

I'm 56 years old and have used numerous electric shavers over the years, as well as shaving with a blade. This is the most expensive shaver I've ever purchased and it's well worth the additional cost. It actually shaves closer than a blade, and much quicker than any other electric shaver that I've tried. It's also very easy to clean and you can get quite a few shaves out of one charge. I'd buy it again in a heartbeat.

Perfect quality and unexpexted options , I recommend for every skins

Excellent wet/dry shaver with fair price. It is very flexible and easy to shave around the neck and chin area.

Great clean shave easy to handle and you can charge it up pretty quick.

The Panasonic - Arc5 Wet/Dry Electric Shaver has been working very well for me. I found it easy to hold and use to get a close comfortable shave with no skin irritation. It performed extremely well on my upper lip area. It is easy to clean and has an excellent battery life between charges, about 2 weeks of shaving time. The trimmer is a bit difficult to use but it works well once you get used to achieving the correct angles to hold the shaver in. The power on/off button did get in the way at first but I quickly learned how to avoid accidentally pressing it. The charge time is about 1 hour when the battery is almost totally discharged. I also like the travel case as well. This razor is an excellent value price-wise.

At 74 years old, this Panasonic - Arc5 is by far one of the best razors I have ever had. For years as was sold on Wahl razors, but this Panasonic outperforms them all...for closeness, a total clean shave and with little to know effort. It's easy on the skin and leaves me with no skin or razor burn. Extremely well worth the $200 plus, I paid.

Purchased this on sale $99. It is GREAT. I love this razor. It’s so much better then these $30-80 ones. Totally worth the money.

I researched a couple of electric shavers and came across this Panasonic as providing a close shave. Well, it does provide a very close shave and it's quiet. I like the pivoting head which provides a clean shave around the jaw and neck. It charges very fast and doesn't leave a lot of hair in the sink.

This is the best electric shaver I have ever used. I keep a beard, but shave my head. This gave me such a close, and comfortable head shave! I’m honestly blown away. This has made me such a believer, I’m throwing away my blades. It’s worth every penny.

I upgraded from a Panasonic Arc3. The Arc5 has two more blades and it does give me a better shave with less effort. I've been using Panasonic Wet/Dry razors for many years. Obviously, I like them. My biggest complaint is that most of the razors I've had only last 3-4 years before something breaks. But if they didn't break then I would have to replace the blades--which isn't that much less than just buying a new one.

Panasonic makes the best electric razors period. And this one is no exception. Shaves smooth and battery lasts forever.

My fear of electric shavers has come to an end. I have really sensitive skin and after a few weeks of owning this shaver, I can say that i will never go back to manual blades again. My skin feels smooth and my razor bumps are going away. Great product!

Threw my Bruan away after only using a few months. Didn't shave, but pulled; not close at all. Was crap. This is a dream. I had previous Panasonic and should have bought instead of Bruan. This cuts close and perfect, keeps charge for a week or more, and cleans fairly easily. Only CON is it seems to need cleaning sooner than previous models, but easy and well worth the close shave. Price was right too.
