ive used both to shave my head, didnt notice any difference
i think the turbo has a swivel head or is more flexible which allows for a "smooth, close shave"
i like the turbo better, i get a closer shave and no razor bumps, i just switched from the regular mach3 last week and i like it so far.
LOL, its something Gillette always does when the buzz over their latest blade dies down. 'What is the REAL big difference' you ask? The name. The other changes are minor.Quote:

yeah purchased me one of those trusty mach 3 turbo razors since everyone seems to like them.. here's my out come.. (havent shaved my arms in a week) blade does dull rather quick. only was able to do my forearms before it was time to change to the second blade. (damn those blade kits cost 15 bucks)
so to my conclusion i'll stick with the cheap disposible ones then when i need a really smooth shave i'll switch to the mach turbo!
All just hype!! Another way for them to make more money releasing a so called new and amazing product!
Hey! The mach III is an amazing product.
1 Swipe and your done! MACH III ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!
What else would you use? a sharp rock or one of those one blade cutters
The blades on the Turbo are exactly the same as the regular Mach 3. The only slightly noticable difference is the little rubber piece on the bottom...I guess its special "Turbo rubber". :rolleyes:
dont forget the new and improved lubricating strip
actually, the new and improved lubribcating strip DOES help, I think... And although its colour runs out a lot quicker, thus indicating you need to replace it faster ( :rolleyes: ), it's a lot easier to tell when it's gone.Quote:

One razor lasted me a week, just shaving my beard... (After that, it moves over to do chest and shoulders, and a new razor's brought in to do my beard :p)
I do feel that the new strip is good for going against the grain, but since I try to avoid that now (**** you queer eye!), it works the same as the Mach III regular.Quote:

are we sure the blades themselves are not differnt in the turbo?
You meanyou guys couldn't feel that extra TURBO. me either
turbo... makes me feel like i'm shaving fast and furious or somethin like that
honest opinion is stick to disposible for price of one blade u could use 7 plus disposibles. MACH III is just making large amount of money off us.
LETHAL
the schick 3 blade is better, freaky sharp
Now they have that new M3 razor. It has PULSATING waves that makes your hair stand up so you get a closer shave. 10 bucks for 4 razors. Try to rip me off on that price. Hell no.
