But what is the Flexball exactly?
- The Flex Ball is a technology which adapts the all contours of the face and thus always ensures optimum skin contact. For now, the blade member is movable in 3 dimensions and allows so to catch more hairs in fewer strokes Optimal. This is a clean and close shave possible than before.
The Flexball itself is supported by a metal spring which allows 12 degrees tilt to the left or right. By the moving blade head because you already know, a three dimensions is now given by mobility.
Desweitern also the grip has been improved from ProGlide. He feels ergonomic and rubber has been adjusted slightly. But it has so with dry or wet hands always everything under control!
The ProGlide Power has over normal ProGlide which will also come with the Flexball technology, because the benefit it by Soothing battery-powered micro-pulses to reduce the friction between skin and razor. A higher lubricity is given.
Likewise, the ProGlide blades have been revised. There are still five as previously thin, fine ProGlide blades and Power in the version in addition to micro-comb the hair leads to the blade. The ProGlide Power blades so there is so in 2 versions. Which is the better one has to decide for themselves, because they also differ in price. But usable both blades on each other razors.
Shaving even I can tell that I was very pleased. I have reserved to myself a beard for the test of the razor specially where the hair was about 1.5 cm long. (Recommended or shaving both) After lotion with shaving cream I started to wet shaving and was very enthusiastic.
There were the first trains almost all the hair already removed and also the difficult point chin / neck where my old ProGlide had problems in the transition was handled well. Since the Flexball became noticeable.
After shaving my skin was sensitive per se is easily irritated only 2 points, which is much better compared to leaders, because there were usually 5-6 points. The cleaning in the water is also easily and cleanly. Simply hold the blade in the water and a little shake, and it is clean. Thus, the Gillette ProGlide PowerFlex ball has so complied Proven and his promises.
My partner tested the Gillette ProGlide PowerFlex ball well, but in the shower for shaving the underarms, legs and bikini line. For them it was a good result, but could not notice much difference against the ProGlide there. So one can say that it really makes more in the face of positive surprises, but it works well as its predecessor on the body. As an alternative there is to the body nor the Gillette Body.
Overall I can say that I the Gillette ProGlide PowerFlex ball only can recommend and am personally very happy with it. I'm going to Gillette ProGlide Flexball (without power) also set me to see whether this will vary greatly.
But as the Gillette ProGlide PowerFlex ball gets a strong buy recommendation from me, because it is priced well Identical to the previous model without Flexball!
