Men's Shavers ES-LV97

Fast, powerful shaving

The core to this winning shaver is its ultra-fast linear motor. Two key benefits of the linear motor are:　
1. It’s exceptionally powerful, providing 70,000 cross-cutting actions per minute.
2. It maintains a steady cutting speed when shaving the toughest of beards, even if hairs are flat-lying. The result is a fast, powerful shave with any beard.

Ultra-fast motor for powerful, smooth shaving

The super strong neodymium magnet helps drive the blades extremely fast to deliver up to 70,000 cross-cutting actions per minute. This helps provide an exceptionally powerful and smooth shave.
No beard can slow this ultra-fast linear motor down, regardless of how thick it is. We’re confident, as we’ve tested it even against copper wires in our laboratories. With a steady cutting speed right until the battery runs out, you can be confident of getting a powerful, smooth shave every time.

Efficient, effortless shaving

A unique combination of 5 arched, nano polished blades and the multi-flex 16D contour-following head delivers an efficient, effortless shave.

5 arched blades for efficient cutting

5 outer blades are designed differently to capture and cut all kinds of hairs.
A. Quick Slit Blade with Comb: Provides improved pre-cutting of long hairs.
B. Quick Lift Foil: Lifts up flat-lying hairs efficiently, especially on the neck and chin.
C. Finishing Foil: With this extremely thin foil (41 μm), longer hairs get a second, closer cut*.

30˚ nano polished inner blades

Leveraging the Japanese Samurai sword-making tradition, we’ve developed ultra-sharp nano polished inner blades honed to an acute 30° enabling them to cut hair very close to the root. The result is a superior and efficient shaving experience with a minimum number of strokes even on the chin, where beards tend to be densest.

Multi-flex 16D contour-following head

The shaver head moves in 16 directions independently* and follows the contours of the face and neck easily to reduce the number of strokes required to shave even flat-lying hair.

Panasonic’s most responsive beard sensor technology*

Our responsive beard sensor technology detects beard density 220 times per second*. This technology adjusts the power of the motor 14 times per second, making it one of the most responsive shavers to different beard thickness and density.

Auto cleaning and charging system

When you finish shaving, put the shaver in its stand, press the switch, and it automatically cleans and charges itself. The shaver is thoroughly cleaned of beard clippings and sebum, which are difficult to remove with water, to keep the blades sharp for longer. Its compact size also means the shaver does not take up much space.
