The Norelco shaver 2300 is one of Philips’ most popular entry-level models because it offers so much in terms of features at a pocket friendly price. The shaver also stands out among its entry-level peers with a rugged build. Its 3 rotating heads are made of high polished Remington Shaver metal to offer you comfort when the internal blades snip off hair from your face. Moreover, the blades have a fully flexible head turn of 360 degrees and can therefore follow your facial contours accurately for optimal skin contact and a thorough skin-friendly shave.
If you want an electric tooth brush with a replaceable battery, make one. If you want a phone with a replaceable battery, Remington Shaver buy a Pine Phone instead of an iPhone. Easy, vote with your wallet, don’t take the choice away from others.

If you’re looking for a device that can tackle just about any hair, you’re in luck. Philips Norelco’s 3800 can grasp hairs in hard-to-reach areas and take on hairs of different lengths. Finally, the aforementioned Panasonic Arc 3 is also worth considering, especially if you usually shave more often and want a closer shave. Once you’ve finished shaving, switch the razor off and disconnect the power cord . However, don’t expect spectacular performance as this is after all a very basic razor.
You will certainly need to cleanse your electric razor at the very least when monthly if you do not own a model with a cleansing dock. It’s not difficult and needs more initiative than your everyday tidy. You may have an electric razor that has hygiene and washing terminal. That permits you to clean and completely dry the razor instantly to make sure that you can get shaved again. It’s also completely waterproof so you can use it in the shower. And, if the AA battery dies—though it can last for up to a month and a half—it’s easy enough to pick up a new one.
Although it may be a bit pricey, the Philips Norelco Shaver is worth it with all of the features it boasts. All products featured here are independently selected by our editors and writers.

Traditional shave and using a brush with a shaving soap, would put you on another level altogether.
This shaver gives the user an option for a wet or dry shave with the AquaTec technology where you can choose a dry shave or a wet one with the use of gel or foam. Its blades are designed to follow the contour and curves of your face for a more precise and efficient shave that cuts closer to the skin. It takes about two weeks for your skin to get used to using an electric razor, but once I passed through that Philips Norelco Shaver window, I was amazed that my razor bumps decreased significantly and never really came back. Experts might say that’s because electric razors don’t cut as close as a traditional razor/shave cream combo, but in practice I didn’t notice any difference between the closeness of my shave. In fact, I found that without shaving cream, I could see spots I missed and manage the details of my shave much better.
Its technology also enables it to adjust cutting power based on your beard density and the area you’re shaving. I will get one as well and do a review and comparison with the Arc 5. I am actually the most excited about the completely redesigned system that allows the 6 cutters to move independently a lot easier. That was always a problem with all Panasonic shavers, hopefully this issue will be fixed.
We couldn’t figure out exactly why this break-in period is necessary. On my last phone I used up 4 batteries before replacing it for other reasons… My latptop is now on it’s third battery and my tablet the 2nd . I even pulled my electric razor apart – and it had a in it . The non-replaceable battery in my five year old phone is still doing fine. When travelling, I find carrying a power bank much more convenient than trying to keep a stack of charged replacements.
In effect if you needed to mail a pile of batteries you could construct a torch which had a container for them and a big resistor plus an LED, and simply tighten one screw to close it. The batteries are now part of a device and can be shipped safely, so long as correct warnings are marked on the parcel and it is below some quantity limit of cell and mAh count. The person receiving the shipment may then choose to open up the torch device and extract all its batteries for use elsewhere.
As long as the skin isn’t very sensitive, most users should be fine using it (it’s even better with a pre-shave lotion, of course). Once opened, shake it gently to remove the bulk of hair clippings and then rinse the hair chamber and shaving unit with warm tap water. If most of your hair tends to grow in different directions, it may be worth investing in a more advanced shaver that can get the job done with less effort. The Philips Norelco 2300 is quite a capable machine if you shave less often or if the hairs stay flat on the skin. However, for users with light to medium facial hair, the results should be good enough. On the chin and below the nose where my facial hair grows particularly thick, things could have been better though.
