Customer Reviews of Philips Norelco 1150x/40 SensoTouch 2d Electric Shaver, Metallic Blue
Customer Review: This Shaver has the WOW factor!
Summary: 5 Stars
I shave my face and head everyday. I have done this for MANY years. If you look back at some of my previous reviews, you'll see I've tried most things out there for shaving. Just off the top of my head I have used Atra, Sensor, Tracer, Headblade, Mach 3 , Proglide, Hydro5 and yes even Bic and "Good News" razors. I have also used Braun, Norelco and Panasonic electrics. One can get a pretty good shave out of most items out there.
I usually use a blade during the winter months and an electric during the summer months....no real reason other than I like variety, and in the summer I water my lawn so I don't want to use as much water in the shower or shaving. We can make electricty, but we can't make more water. :-). When I am in blade shave mode the Schick Hydro5 is my tool of choice, best blade hands down for me, however this new Norelco 1150x/40 is going to have me using it more than I ever thought possible.
Just so you know, I have used the following electric razors:
Norelco 4401LC, 7145XL--Overall I am a Norelco fan. They work well for my daily routine and work fast. My 4401LC is a 20 yr old corded model that still does a very nice job/close shave, with HQ4 heads, but I have to be gentle or I'll get razor burn on my neck.
Panasonic EA-SA40, ES7037 and ES 7103---Panny makes really, really nice razors. Great wet/dry use. With the amount/type of surface area I have to cover, the rotary seems to be a better fit for my shaving routine. The newer Panasonic do have larger cutting surfaces that I may have to try someday.
Braun Syncho5, 1-150-----Braun just DOES NOT work for my beard and head. Gives me the worst shave ever. Missed hairs everywhere, cheeks, neck, razor burn, you name it. I will never buy another Braun. These two shavers could not handle a stoud beard or the "workload" a heavy shaver like me demands.
FYI--I also brush out my shaving heads every week no matter what shaver I use. It makes the heads last much longer.
I like electric shavers because they don't cause bumps at the base of the back of my neck like blade shaving does. I also like to shave on the go.
I prefer a wet/dry razor because just being able to rinse it out everyday is my preferred (and most cost effective) cleaning method.
Okay, so I get my new 1150. First impression was, oh wow it looks amazing!!!!! 100% wow factor there. The base is fantastic, I love it! No tossing this razor in a drawer or cabinet. Having a lithium battery is a big plus as well! AND MADE IN THE NETHERLANDS, not China! COOL!
Um wait a minute, the Series 8 heads look JUST LIKE my 7145XL! Is this really an upgrade? Also, the head base seems to flex the same as my 7145...heck this may not be much of a difference of a shave. Well, wait, now the 1150x has this new neck pivot device. Hmmmm. This razor was charged when it arrived and I had some stubble so, HERE IS THE IMPORTANT PART-- I gave it a test run. For some reason with my beard, I only get average results with a dry shave and this razor was no different. RIght side of face, dry shave eh, okay....but my preshave of choice is Afta Pre-Electric (better than Lectric Shave or Face-Saver for me), and on the left side of my face with the Afta...WOW, nano-near as close as a blade!!!!! So put some Afta on my scalp...holy moley, this 1150 contours my scalp/and head like no other razor or blade I have ever used!!! SO CLOSE and SO COMFORTABLE! Also ZERO razor burn on my neck!
No matter how soft or how hard you push, I did not get burn, the "cushion" in the floating heads adjusted for a great shave over all surfaces! After using this shaver, I then took a blade and went over the same spots to see if I could get any closer.....not really. Using the circular pattern (with and against the grain) with this or any Norelco shaver really gives on a close shave. I have used the 1150x for a while, my shave time is getting less and less, and it is very apparent, this is a big step up in comfort and overall shaving experience.
I love this shaver and it has moved up to #1 in my shaving armamentarium. It's a pleasure to use everyday.

Designed to handle the contours of your face, SensoTouch utilizes GyroFlex 2D--two-dimensional contouring technology that's able to pivot in a circular motion and tilt inwards. Its contour-following system adjusts easily to every curve, minimizing both pressure and irritation. The result is a close shave that's easy on your skin.
Precisely Cuts and Trims Each and Every Hair
SensoTouch delivers a close, comfortable shave with complete coverage and accuracy. DualPrecision heads have slots to shave the normal hairs, and holes to shave even the shortest stubble.
The patented Super Lift&Cut dual blade system lifts hairs to cut comfortably below skin level, while the low-friction SkinGlide shaving surface slides smoothly along your skin for a close shave without irritation. There's also a precision trimmer feature for mustache and sideburn grooming.
Comfortably Shaves--Wet or Dry
SensoTouch lets you shave any way you want. The AquaTec seal gives you the option of either a comfortable dry shave or a refreshing wet shave with shaving cream or gel. No matter which you choose, SensoTouch's slim, non-slip grip makes for easy handling.
Cordless Convenience
With SensoTouch, you'll enjoy the convenience of cordless operation at home or on the road. One hour of charging provides up to 40 minutes of shaving time, and a three-minute quick-charge option gives you enough power for a single shave. The two-level battery display lets you know when the battery is full and shows a low-battery warning when it's time to recharge.
Easy-Clean, Travel-Friendly Design
SensoTouch is designed with a hair collection chamber that helps keep your bathroom sink neat and tidy. Additionally, the razor itself is easy to clean--just use water and the included brush.
An excellent travel companion, the SensoTouch features a travel lock, protective cap, and storage pouch for safe portability. SensoTouch also has a worldwide voltage function that automatically adjusts from 100 volts to 240 volts AC, making it ideal for international trips.
