Offering a 360 degree swiveling shaving head and a state-of-the art sleek design, arcitec is the most advanced Philips Norelco shaver yet. Compared to other Philips Norelco shavers, arcitec offers new flex & pivot technology, a more aerodynamic design, and an advanced tube trimmer.
The unique flex & pivot technology delivers an exceptionally close shave. Three individually flexing shaving heads are connected by a ball joint system making them swivel, rotate, and pivot with a full range of motion. The maneuverability allows arcitec to adjust to the contours of your face ensuring optimum skin contact and a closer shave -- even on the neck. The new arcitec Shaver is designed to push the boundaries of shaving and to conquer those hard to shave areas.
The arcitec 1050 comes encased in a premium black lacquered shell. Drawing inspiration from high fashion, the razor is loaded with black chrome and metal accents. A true state-of-the-art look.
Cutting edge innovation doesn't stop with the shaver. Now you can recharge your shaver while you store it, with the Power Pod travel case that plugs into the wall and protects your investment. While at home, you can recharge your shaver in its sleek stand and show off this modern addition to your bathroom shelf.
For those sideburns, goatees and moustaches, the new patented precision tube trimmer cuts hairs closer to the skin. This improved performance is due to the tube cutting system moving back and forth capturing every hair. All of these improvements and new introductions make it possible for you to conquer your neck to look and feel your best! Chart your course with the new Philips Norelco arcitec and be confident you're getting a perfectly close shave -- even on the neck.

Summary: Beautiful and flawed
Comment: The Norelco arcitec 1050 is beautiful and flawed. The beauty lays in the eye catching design and craftsmanship found in the shaver, the flaw--unfortunately--is in it's primary purpose, which is, as a shaver. As it turns out, I've owned two other Norelcos and a mid-range Braun which have proven to be dependable, well made and produce a good, clean shave. The Norelco arcitec 1050, while doing reasonably well at the job of cleaning the scruff off one's mug, seems to require more passes to do the same thing the older models managed with one. The trimmer is also different. The idea is that you must pop off the razor head to get use of it. A novel idea I suppose, but I cannot say that it is any better or worse than the trimmer on my old Norelcos, though it is narrower. Want to buy an Norelco arcitec? Then the 1050 is absolutely the model you should get as the much pricier 1090 is identical in every respect except that the LED array includes a battery charge countdown(which ironically draws power), providing you a ballpark idea of when you'll run out of juice. This shaver is still a little expensive (mine happened to be a gift), but it is well made and should provide years of service. I've had mine for over a year and the battery still holds a good charge lasting over a week of daily use. The included travel carrier is useful, though a little tricky to figure out how to use at first.

Summary: looking cool but that's about it
Comment: pros:it certainly looks very cool, it is light and easy to handle, not noisy
cons: expensive, but most importantly not a close shaver. I would rate my facial hair thickness as average and unfortunately i have not been able to get a close shave although i persisted using it hoping it would improve. The shave is not bad on the cheeks but it gets really bad on the chin and the neck. I will give it to my brother, hopefully it will work on him.

Summary: Great results for Norelco Arcitec 1050 !!!
Comment: I read the pro and con comments on the Norelco Arcitec 1050 and made the purchase....nothing but positive returns here. Someone said it's noisy....not so compared to my old Braun 7550 which I was buying blades for every couple of months..and I do not have a heavy beard. The Norelco gives me a close shave...with my Braun I used to have to use a hand razor for my neck. And whoever complained about the cleaning of the Norelco needs a butler.....you pop open the 3 rotary blades, run under the sink for 10 seconds, hitting each blade and it's perfectly clean for the next use. I got about 30 days worth of shaving before having to recharge. Bottom line here, totally happy with this product.

Summary: Phillips Norelco Arcitec 1050 Shaver -- THE BEST!
Comment: I bought this product as a gift for my 24 year old son. He says it is, by far, the best shaver he has ever owned. I bought it because it claimed to be self-cleaning and I know my son is preoccupied with other aspects of his life so this was a must. That turned out to be one of the things he liked most. The most important thing... It doesn't cause skin irritation or break outs. This is a must for men who like convenience but still care about their skin.
