Let me help you find a suitable electric shaver - Electric shaver reviews 2012
In this article I shortly review some of the top new shavers spread out across different price categories.
The core features to look for when buying an electric shaver are durability, battery use and smoothness of shave.
Durability: The higher the quality, the more years you will be using it without problems.
Smooth shave: Not all electric shavers deliver on their promises, but the ones reviewed here, definitely did.
Battery use: It's no use if you run out of power half way through a shave, so the charging set up, needs to be well designed.

The Braun Series 7 - 790cc Pulsonic Shaver
The Braun Series 7 isn't cheap, but if you have the money it is one of the top shavers of 2012.It's not only fast and efficient but it is also self cleaning. The Pulsonic shaver, manufactured by Braun creates a ripple motion as it glides, so much more hair is removed. The shaver gives a gentle shave with a vibrating motion that glides effortlessly over your face. The Pulsonic Shaver doesn't create any noticeable friction with the vibration; this is good because sometimes vibrating electric shavers can be a little gimmicky.
Feedback from owners of the Pulsonic Shaver indicates that they found it to give a smooth and easy shave, even after months of use.
The sensitive flexing head reaches into different directions at the same time, helping you reach hair growth on problematic areas. This gives you a closer shave, gets rid of stubble that lasts throughout the whole day. No more irritation after a shave.
Unlike other shavers, this one doesn't heat up after a couple minutes of use. The grip is soft and comfortable.
The best thing about this state of the art shaver is that it lifts and removes problem hair in a single stroke. I found it very helpful in getting rid of the flat lying hairs on my cheeks that other shavers sometimes find hard to remove.
With just a touch of a button, the Pulsonic Shaver lubricates & cleans itself in 25 seconds flat. You can also clean it under running water if you want to.
Top rated electric shaver of 2012
Philips Norelco 7810 Men's Cutting System
The traditional and much trusted rotary shavers do the same job as the swivel type shavers but for less. The trade-off is that the rotary shaver takes longer.With its three floating heads, that move over the contours of the face smoothly. It provides a close shave that lasts throughout the day.
It is easy to trim the moustache and sideburns, thanks to the spring release trimmer that comes with the 7810. The shaver has tiny holes that remove the shortest of stubbles and the head covers come in different patterns.
The only problem with this shaver is that it doesn't come with a travel case.
The performance is smooth, very silent and the shaver has an excellent battery which gives you up to 24 shaves per charge. This is impressive considering that the cutting heads rotate much faster than that of normal rotary shavers. The speed makes it less likely that the 7810 will give you razor burn.

Philips Norelco PT720 Men's Shaving System
I don't recommend anything cheaper than this, as the cheaper razors don't tend to last very long.
This shaver also has pop up trimmers to help you manage your sideburns and moustache easily.
The Norelco has a handy LED charge and power displays and comes with a head cap and power lead. It is a quite convenient set up for when travelling.
The Norelco comes with a two year warranty and a 60 day money back guaranty. This is impressive considering it's price range.

Panasonic ES8109S Vortex Wet/Dry Shave
The HydraClean system in the new Panasonic ES8109S Vortex Wet/Dry Shaver, delivers a comfortable shaving experience. It comes with a triple blade design that cuts thick beards without any problems. What's more, the Panasonic ES8109S has a pivoting head that follows the face contours; this helps you get a much closer shave.You can shave in the shower or use shaving cream with the Vortex, like you do with a normal shaver. The Vortex works well wet or dry.
Nano technology is used to polish the blades giving an impressive performance. The HydraClean system uses a combination of water and detergents to keep the blades clean and shinning. You can use the cleaning mode or clean it under running water, because the heating system keeps the shaver dry.
It has a handy battery charging system that lets you see, when the battery needs to be charged. Battery life lasts around 9 shaves so it can be used without a charger for over a week. The Vortex is very light and offers good value for money compared to other similar models.
