Anyone know the difference between this unit and the (what seems to be newer) ES-LV95-S?

The ESLV95 (and the ESLV65, which does not have the cleaning system) does not have Panasonic's new "stubble sensor," which increases or decreases the motor speed based on how thick or thin the whiskers are on your face. It's up to you if it's worth the premium.

i don't know , but this is the best shaver on the market . my guess is the newer is even better if that is possible

So far I haven't found a huge difference in the basic structure of this type of unit from high to low, most of the extras are in the electronics. I decided to go with the cheap one since they all seem to wear out

Hello there, I am not sure which is new and which is old model but certainly I am not very happy with it. It stopped working just after few weeks of moderate use. I don't consider this is a quality product!

I researched both before I purchased mine and determined that there wasn't a significant difference. I'm currently happy with this (but I guess I wouldn't know if something large enough to be damaging has occurred since I installed it). The specs and ratings looked functionally similar, however the more expensive one has a lifetime limited vs 10 year warranty and the $25k equipment coverage.

What about the ES8228S? Is this one an improvement on the 8168? Other than some ebay listings, I haven't found much info anywhere.

I've heard there's some improvement in the power supply, and also an anti-pop circuit that was added to remove speaker pop when the unit is turned on. The nice thing is that this unit is priced so closely to the old unit, might as well buy this one. When I bought mine I actually found it on Amazon for $2 cheaper than the old unit. Since prices on Amazon tend to flux, it's good to check what all merchants are offering at the time.

The ES is over a year old and the UN55F7500 is much faster and better all around.You won't like the response time of the ES.

The only difference is the plastic. One is dark purple, which looks black, and one is a slightly translucent blue. Both run on the same frequency: 2.3MHz.LW is correct in that the blue ones are the older model.

I too had the EJ500 and ordered the EJ500C. It was apparently the upgraded version, but I found no difference. Both controlled the on/off times connected to the outlet. I recall even the setup instructions read similarly. Once I figured it out, which wasn't easy, it has been doing its job.

I work at a shaver store (can't mention the name). As far as I know there is no difference. It's just the reference number (different countries/suppliers use different reference). When you scan it, it may say ES8109 or ES8109S, it's all the same). But anyhow, I wouldn't worry about it, because unless the difference is AT LEAST in last 2 digits, there is usually no difference in features.

Hmmm, look at the pictures and model numbers. I see no difference. Somebody's confused.

It looks like just different wording spec. for Japan, along with the model number change from LV61 to LV52

I went with the E3200 I got for 99 bucks on Ebay. Its real close to this one minus a few features. I love it !

I found a forum that references that the only difference between the ES8249S and ES8249K models is the color. I haven't found any other place besides that one post that confirms this is the only difference. According to the person on the forum, they confirmed by calling Panasonic directly to talk about the model differences and what to do if/when the built-in battery goes bad (you must send it to Panasonic's repair center in San Fran which is $50 + shipping).It might be best to call Panasonic to re-confirm. Let us know if you follow-up with them and find anything out.
