Amazon’s Memorial Day Sales have come and gone, but if you spent the long weekend relaxing instead of online bargain hunting (we can’t blame you), fret not. There are still a few post-holiday deals worth shopping now, especially if you’re on the hunt for a new electric razor. Enter Panasonic’s Arc 5 Electric Razor, a beast of a shaver that can replace your grooming routine in one fell swoop. From now, while supplies last, Amazon is knocking 31% off the Arc5, bringing it down to its lowest price ever since Black Friday 2022. It’s a rare sale on a top-notch shaver that’s been vetted and tested by our Men’s Health editors.
Pros
- Strong stainless steel blades
- Shaving head moves in 16 directions
Cons
- Struggles with growth longer than 2-3 day beards

Among them is our Grooming Editor Garrett Munce, who dubbed the Arc5 one of the best electric razors for men, citing its powerful motor that can deliver 14,000 cuts per minute and a shaving head that moves in 16 directions. “The result? A surprisingly close shave that requires only a few passes if you’re using on a day-to-day basis,” he said. ” We’re talking the kind of close shave where you will barely feel your stubble.” Plus, you can use it for wet or dry shaving (meaning you can use it in the shower), and it comes with an automatic cleaning and charging station to make maintenance a breeze. Other testers note that they had less post-shave irritations (nicks and razor bumps) with the Arc 5, compared to other electric razors they’ve tested.
And Amazon shoppers agree with our review. The Panasonic Arc 5 has received more than 3,700 five-star ratings, and 800 five-star customer reviews. “Its dry-shave closeness is so fine that I see nothing to be gained by using it to do a wet shave,” says one amazon.com customer. “I cannot see myself ever returning to a blade of any kind after using this electric razor.”

And while there are newer Panasonic models out there, the Arc 5 still holds up as a reliable shaver that can mow through your stubble with ease. And with Amazon’s secret sale, there’s never been a better time to buy one for yourself.
