EVEN THOUGH my grooming routine is extensive, I’m a minimalist at heart. I like nothing more than an easy-to-use, no-fuss-no-muss product that can cut down my grooming time. The outlier, however, was always my shaving routine. I was still stuck on the pre-shave, shaving cream, razor, aftershave hamster wheel and couldn’t seem to get off. What changed was my razor bumps. No matter what I did, and no matter what product I tried, I couldn’t seem to get rid of them. That is, until I tried an electric razor.
There are many reasons a guy might switch to an electric razor. Like me, it could be the razor bump issue. Also like me, it could be to save time. Electric razors are also easy to travel with (no extra products!), intuitive to use (especially newer versions that incorporate sensing technology and even AI), and less expensive in the long run. Many can be used in or out of the shower, with or without shaving cream, and even on other parts of your body like your head or below the neck. Plus, and this is a big plus, a single electric razor can replace your entire shaving routine and declutter your bathroom shelf—who doesn’t like that extra space?
No matter your reason for using an electric razor, the biggest thing is finding the right one. The good news is that no matter what your budget, skin or hair type, or grooming acumen, there’s an electric razor that will suit your lifestyle. This list of the 15 top electric razors for men is the best place to start.
Braun Series 9 Pro 9465cc
After conducting our Braun Series 9 Pro review, we found the razor cuts shaving time into a fraction of what other electric razors typically put out. It has all the bells and whistles you want from a high-end razor (even a self-cleaning charging station) and even ones you didn’t know you needed like AutoSense technology that automatically adjusts power based on the density of your beard allowing it to plow through even 7 days-worth of stubble with ease. There’s even Sonic Technology that lifts hair to deliver a closer shave in less time.

Arc5 Electric Razor
For as close as this razor can shave (5-blades close!) you’d think that it could make sensitive skin angry, but somehow it doesn’t. The ultra-sharp blades trim hair as close as any razor/cream combo we’ve tried and the pivoting head ensures you don’t miss a spot – even around hard to reach areas like your jawline and neck. The body is lightweight and almost whisper-quiet. Other (more expensive) versions of this razor also feature things like Intelligent Shave Sensor that automatically adjusts to your hair thickness, but this version still delivers a great shave without as many bells and whistles.

OneBlade Hybrid
If you’re looking for the closest trim without completely shaving your beard (like a slight five-o’clock shadow), this easy-to-use electric shaver is a top choice—and Amazon shoppers agree. It’s great for trimming hair on your head, face, neck, and basically any other area without worrying about nicks and cuts. You can easily achieve the perfect length of scruff with three combs and a contoured head that moves to the shape of your face. Those who are trying to grow the perfect mustache will also find value in the OneBlade Hybrid.
