Community Reviews
Panasonic's ARC5 is praised as a very close, fast electric shave, with the Linear motor and four foil elements standing out against Braun and Norelco. Long-term durability can be excellent, with some units still running well after years of use, and the same original blade lasting a long time in lighter use. The main tradeoff is upkeep, since replacement foils and blades can be expensive and wear faster with thick facial hair or frequent shaving. Battery life also varies, with some getting only a few shaves per charge. A strong fit if close shave matters more than low maintenance.
Some users report the ARC5 shaves closer than Braun while still handling daily quick sessions.
Genuine OEM replacement parts can be available at lower prices than the US site pricing for some ARC5 sets.
Panasonic ARC5 units can keep working for about ten years before battery degradation becomes noticeable.
The ARC5 can keep the same original blade working for at least two years without needing replacement.
Replacement blade and foil costs can be very high, with one cited ARC5 set price around $114.
Foil and blade wear can happen quickly, with reports of only about 3-5 months under thick facial hair and frequent shaving.
Battery performance can be unexpectedly short, with one report of only about three shaves per full charge.
Some replacement sets sold online may be Chinese fakes that shave worse than original parts.

ChatGPT how much are replacement blade? OMG!!! 😱
- Norelco and all other spinning-circle shavers are worthless. I swear they pull hairs individually instead of shaving.
- The two best brands are the medium to high-end razors from Panasonic (anything with the "Linear" motor, which this one has) and Braun. Both brands have low-end versions that are not good.
- Panasonics shave closer, but more slowly, and the foils and blades wear out much more quickly.
- Brauns shave faster, but not quite as close as the Panasonics, and the foils and blades last 2-3x as long as Panasonic.
- I am sure that these two facts are related: a thinner foil allows a closer shave but wears out faster.
All foils and blades will last much longer if you lube them with a bead of mineral oil once every week or two.Hope this helps!

If you don't have much that much facial hair and just mustache and facial hair on your chin, this will shave even better than a regular norelco shaver?
If I don't shave for a few weeks, typically shaving with the norelco shaver will get stuck when shaving. But this doesn't happen that much with this panasonic or it still does?

Price varies a lot depending on the seller. Be careful on ebay, as a lot of the blade/foil sets are Chinese fakes which don't shave nearly as well as the originals.
Both the Panasonic and Braun have a trimmer on the back. If you didn't shave for weeks, the whiskers will be too long and you'll need to use the trimmer first. When I had a Norelco I could only go about two days before it started pulling hairs out. With the Braun or Panasonic I can go several more days. Even then they won't pull the hairs out like the Norelco. They'll just start leaving unshaved hairs behind, and you'll have to go back in with the clippers.
