According to the Remington service site http://www.remingtonproducts.com/mens/shavers/foil-shavers/f4790gb-mens-pivot-and-flex-dual-foil-shaver.aspx these are the same models.

I have a f4790 Remington and am pleased with it,s operation,I don't know the f 4790gb ,but I would assume that it may have some kind of base that goes with it for charging. Email remingtonproducts .com for a better answer.

Agreed- they're the same. Companies - especially electronics brands - add these numbers to most of their products, in order to allow stores to be the "exclusive seller" of that model, and/or offer the "guaranteed lowest price" on that model (since they're the only one that sells it).

The 5580 is $10 more but has 14 settings while the 5570 has 13. It comes with a travel case, but the "plus" is the additional foil head for shaving. For the extra $10 bucks it can shave, but I don't know how close the shave is. Need to read up on this. It is basically the same model though with these additions.

In my search for a shaver, I also had a question about that. What I found were basically three things: the finish color and style, 760 is black while the 790 is a nice silver finish. In terms of performance features, the 790 utilizes an LCD display for battery status and hygiene information. The 760 uses an LED display with just indicator lights to differentiate battery level; no hygiene status. One more thing, the 790 has a quicker clean cycle. Other than these three things, no other differences. Personally, I have the 760 and I am very happy with it. I think either would do a great job. Aesthetics and slight feature differences. Good luck.

I'm sorry, as I merely use non-electric shavers, I don't know the difference. But, this is compact and easy to clean. I'd like a bit more shaving power.

My beard is really tough and it takes quite a while for me to get a close shave, but the Panasonic does a better job than any other shaver I've ever used. Leave the cleaning base at home and just take the charger/cord with you on the road. I can get about 10 shaves on a charge, but I plug the shaver in overnight when on the road. If you clean the shaver under running water you will never *have* to clean it in the base, although that's what I do when not travelling. It's a great shaver... You can't go wrong. I've got the ES8228 and the ES8109. They're pretty much the same shavers with different trim. I replaced a Braun 360.

I am not sure what the part number is, but if you can go to the Remington shaver web site you can find the number. That is how I found it.

As others pointed out the only difference is the handle. I have not found the smooth handle to be a problem; in fact it is in my rotation this week. If you are concerned this might be a problem then get one of the models that does not have the smooth handle. The DE 89 series is a great razor.

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.

See my review. There is a world of difference, in my opinion. When I finish my dry shave cycle my shave is close, but a wet shave (I use hot water, no foam) makes a significant difference in closeness and comfort. The 799 is worth every penny.

The -95 has an LCD display, the -85 does not. The -85 has indicator lights instead. Otherwise they're the same. It's your choice whether the LCD display is worth the extra money.The 89XX series advertises better cutters and foil than the previous 85XX series. The body configurations are the same, though, so you can upgrade an 85XX (Activator) body with an 89XX (360 Complete) cutter & foil set. I've done this myself, and saved the cost of buying a whole new shaver just to get the new cutter & foil.

I am not really sure to the correct answer of the RPM's. I will say that I am very dissapointed with this razor! It cuts poorly, requiring several passes over the same area before it is shaven. Some areas of my face it completely cannot cut. I find myself having to go over my face with a regular blade razor to get a clean close shave. I did however, get the razor at a very good price, which causes me to wonder if I got a imitation knockoff, or a referbished model.

I have one of these and mine is the de86bl, I think the de89 have the chrome handels series. I love the easy way it shaves, great for the beginners.

The shaver works either way, but plugged in it seems to have a little more power. I switched to Braun after being a norelco rotary user for years but it was not cutting my neck hairs and the cutter heads were too expensive. You get a carrying case, little cleaning brush, a little bottle of oil, the cord, and the operating instructions. A very good razor for the money!!

They are talking about the shaver head here:http://shaveroutlet.com/remington-pg6250-replacement-body-groomer-shaver-head.html

This listing is inaccurate as to actual model number and the heads (blades). It clearly says it has lift and cut. I just received my order and the box says the model is 6955XL/41. It doe not have lift and cut heads. According to Norelco site, that specific model has the CloseCut Heads. I am returning the shaver under "different from ordered." Since it was fulfilled by a Marketplace Seller (Amazon does not sell them direct), some may be selling 6955 models that have the lift and cut heads, but there is no way to know unless you query each seller to check the box. I'd like to know what 6955 model has them (6955XL/??). This listing is inaccurate as to actual model number and the heads (blades). It clearly says it has lift and cut.

this seems to be the case, except it's more like the 150S without a battery. The 190S has a new style foil that does a much better job of shaving. for some unknown reason the 150S went from $40 something to almost $300, that is why I tried the 190S & I think it's a much better shaver.
