The Philips Norelco 8240 is received with great reviews for several reasons. One of the most common user comments is that it allows for an even closer shave than other razors that they have used in the past. Mainly, however, it is because this shaver displays a revolutionary technology that has men everywhere raving about their new, more enjoyable shaving experience.
So what is this revolutionary technology that has everyone boasting about their shaving experience? Well for one, it has a Dynamic Contour Response allowing the shaver to adjust to the contour of the face and neck automatically.
Another feature is the Speed-XL shaving heads offering 50% more shaving surface as compared to other rotary razors on the market. This Speed-XL technology is one of the components that give the 8240 the ability to offer a shave that is fast and closer than before.
The razor also features a SmartTouch Contour-following and DualPrecision cutting. The DualPrecision cutting is responsible for reaching the shortest stubble and the SmartTouch Contour-following is responsible for keeping the razor close to the skin for a more precise shave.
Finally, there is Fast Rinse, which is an anti-bacterial coating inside the razor allowing it to be rinsed clean in a matter of seconds.
The only downside to this razor is that it does not have a battery light indicator to let you know when the battery is low. It is only equipped with a light to let you know that the battery is charging. However, it does have a long battery life, so you will need to keep your own account of when it's time to charge it up again.
The general impression of this shaver is that it provides a clean and close shave time and time again . If you are looking for a new razor, this may be the one for you.
