I am a long time Norelco rotary user. More than 20 years. In that time, I have owned 4 (i think) different units. I have generally owned just below the highest end units because the highest priced offerings did not generally offer a better shave. Usually more blinking lights and such but I am generally trying to be frugal on this purchase. Not cheap, frugal, meaning I want the absolute most I can get for my dollar. Of course, when I bought my last shaver around 6 years ago, they did not sell any for $250. My how things have changed. The 8150XL is an exceptionally sweet shave and very smooth. The experience is quite different from every previous unit I have owned in that the motor is extremely quiet. Indeed, if the fan is on in the bath, I cannot even tell if it's on except for the light. The shaver is very light and my first reaction was that it felt uh, well, cheap compared to my previous shaver. It is definitely a different animal than any previous piece I have owned. Super quiet, smooth, ultra light. These features did not give the shaver the heft of previous units and at first I was concerned. After more than 40 days with this baby, I can tell you my concerns were not well founded. The first charge I placed on it last 27 days!!! I finally noticed a slowing of the rotors and stuck it back on the charger. I had been holding out because I am used to being concerned about battery memory and wanted to be sure it was sufficiently drained. However, a saturday afternoon read of the finer points in the manual reveal that this is supplied with a Li-ion battery. I believe a first for Norelco. I am stoked indeed. You can throw it on for a quick 15 min charge if you're in a hurry. Memory not an issue with this baby! This is also to my knowledge, the lowest priced shaver that utilizes the SpeedXL shaving heads. This is the highest level head they sell and is used in all of the highest priced shavers and kits. If you use this $90 shaver, you are essentially getting the same shave as the guy who bought the one next to it for $250. Frugal indeed. A+ Norelco. Comment | Permalink | (Report this)
