The other downside about this electric-shaver is that it can’t be used while being plugged into a power-source. This means that you actually need to wait for it to become fully charged or use the quick-charge function in case you’re in a hurry and this is a bit inconveniencing.

Lastly, the Panasonic ES-LT41-K lacks an ultra-thin vibrating outer-foil that is found on high-end Panasonic model. This means that this shaver won’t provide the user with gentler and closer shave compared to shavers with an outer-foil. However, it can still give you a good shave with smooth results with the right shaving-technique.
