Amazon.com Product Description:
The Panasonic Arc IV Nanotech Shaver offers remarkable shaving on the first pass. Equipped with a quadruple foil and four cutting blades, the cutting surface of this shaver has been expanded by 32 percent, offering a better shave with each stroke. The blades are powered by Panasonic's linear motor, which operates at an amazingly fast rate so even the thickest beards or no match for this shaver.
Innovative Technology Provides the Best Shave
Nanotechnology was used to polish the industry's sharpest 30-degree blades to achieve even better cutting performance. This razor's expanded cutting surface not only provides an efficient shave, but it also spreads the pressure, which naturally occurs when applying the shaver to the skin, so users have found it to perform without the irritation found on lesser models. The fourth finishing blade provides an additional cutting opportunity not found on triple-blade shavers. In addition, the foils and blades on this razor are "arced" so they nestle gently into the skin for our closest shave ever. The foil glides evenly for uniform shaving on all surfaces of the face.
Get Great Shaving Results with Ultra Speed
At the heart of razor lies Panasonic's patented Linear Motor. It operates at an amazingly fast 13,000 rpm to cut through the thickest of beards. Standard razors operate at a pedestrian 8,000 to 10,000 rpm. To top it all off, this razor also features wet/dry operation, so you can use it in the convenience of your shower or for dry shaving when you have less time. A liquid crystal display indicates battery charge level by 10 steps and a cleaning reminder. It also comes equipped with a convenient travel case.
There is nothing slow about this razor. Even clean-up is at hyper speed. Simply hold the razor under running water and activate the Turbo mode. The razor accelerates up to 17,000 RPM and vibrates off any remaining whiskers.

- Another good Panasonic product
This is my fifth Panasonic wet/dry shaver that I had since 1997. I like what they have done with product and all the new features. I have thick facial hair and if this could give me a smooth shave, then it will be very convenient for others with less irritation and no cuts. Since I put a lot of miles on it, it usually doesn't last more than two years (I noticed that the rechargeable battery loses its capacity to hold power over time).
Overall, I like the product and I would never try ... Read More

- The best shaver I ever owned
I ordered the Panasonic ES8243 Arc IV nano from Amazon. I usually shave dry. This shaver is very good, better than my Braun 7 series. My skin does not feel hot and I have not experienced shaving nicks.
The only cons that I can think off is that the plastic cover over the shaver foil is difficult to remove without removing the foil as well

- Panasonic ES8243A Shaver
The Panasonic ES8243A is a great shaver. It gives a close shave (not as close as a straight-edge manual shave, but close enough) and without irritating the skin. And it's very fast, plus it's easy to clean. This shaver exceeded my expectations and I would recommend it to others looking for an electric shaver.

- Best shave I've ever had
I have always had sensitive skin, my neck particularly. Ever razor I've previously owned has irritated my neck and I've had to resort to using the pop-up trimmer to shave my neck.
Not with this razor! The pop-up trimmer is not necessary for me. I consistently get very close shaves that leave me skin feeling fine. I keep waiting for the skin on my neck to start burning but it hasn't happened.
The shaves are also extremely quick compared to what I'm used to. Two and half to ... Read More

- Panasonic ES8243A Arc IV Nano wet/dry Rechargeable Shaver
Lets face it, there is no electric shaver that can match the closeness & speed ofa razor blade shave! I have tried many and none compare. That includes this one. However, it is pretty good in "COMPARISON"to the best electric shavers. The head of the shaver is large and not the best design for those who have sideburns or a trimmed beard. It also eats up battery power because of its high speed blade system. It feels nice in your hand and looks very modern. The upper Braun models seem to be just as ... Read More
