Remington R-5150 Good choice over all.
I bought the R-5150 to replace the R-950 which gave me a close shave. My first impression is the 5150 shaves about as close and with less irritation. The heads are larger which makes for more coverage. The "pivot and flex" technology (floating head assembly) causes some noise and seems unnecessary. As others have noted the charging cord has a block at the plug. I don't know why it was desireable to move voltage converter out of the shaver, but I don't find it especially large or inconvenient. The LEDs showing the remaining charge are a nice feature not usually available at this price point. One quibble I have is the 5150 doesn't come with either a case or a blade protector. This is a poor choice to save a few pennies.

I've given the R-5150 four stars because it shaves close with minimal irritation - that's the bottomline for a shaver. I can overlook the noisy floating head assembly, and lack of a case and blade protector.
