Philips Norelco - S9000 Prestige Qi-Charge Electric Shaver - Dark Brushed Chrome

Philips Shaver S9000 Prestige with Qi-Charger - Opening the packaging of the newest premium — I mean prestige —- shaver from Philips will remove any doubts you might have about where this shaver fits in the world of electrics. Everything says high quality: the brushed aluminum metal finish, premium switching and multi-speed settings, informative LCD display, and overall feel in your hand are all perfect. The back of the shaver has a grippy, rubber-like, embossed surface. This model adds an elegant wireless charging plate that is molded so the shaver always rests with the ideal charging orientation. The carry case is a bit larger than necessary, but it should hold anything else in your shaving routine. You don’t get a cleaning station, which I never replenish properly, anyway. I prefer my own cleaning rituals. Philips approach to trimmers is a separate twist off/on accessory that can be swapped with their newest cutting head assembly. This new cutter assembly is sleek and simple to open for cleaning, but it is plastic, not metal. You can feel the surge of power when you switch the motor on, but this may be the quietest electric shaver I’ve ever owned. PERFORMANCE: Starting your shaving experience reveals the first compromise. There is NO way to charge other than the wireless plate for THIS model and there is NO quick charge. It is definitely slower than the typical charging brick. and it takes up more space. But the plate is so cool. I don’t see this as an issue; but, you might. A typical shave for me uses about 11% of the charge. This means I can take an 9 day vacation while leaving the charger home. Dry shaving wasn’t difficult and was very close and comfortable. Even after a few days of beard growth these new cutters had NO difficulty staying comfortable or getting close. NO hair pulling. If you think you know Philips rotary shavers, you need to give this new design a try, And yet, I’m going to suggest adding a pre-shave lotion or shaving under a shower or with a shaving cream. It elevates the whole experience to the level of a facial Spa treatment. Your partner is going to thank you. RECOMMENDATIONS: I’ve switched between foil and rotary shavers over the years. For me, the high-end shavers of either type have proven their value. I appreciate the added comfort and closeness. This Philips is easily one of the best. The Philips Prestige 9000 series adds the cool wireless charger with its pluses and minuses. There are probably other versions of this shaver without the Qi charger for a lower price, but I like this whole package as is.

I was so impressed by the caring case, which does a great job protecting the shaver in storage or on the go. Charging is so cool. Just plug in the USB cable into the transformer of really any USB port that can support charging, and the modern wireless charger does its thing. The ring glows to let you know you've placed the shaver correctly into its recessed dish. After a week, my beard and face were accustomed to the triple header's whirling blades. No problem since I've used an electric shaver on and off since I borrowed my Dad's Norelco back in the '70's. Cleaning the blades are quicke. Pop off the blades head and run the whole thing under the tap. Its able to shave wet or dry. I use lectric shave as it helps the head glide easier over my face. No razor burns for me! Also comes with a trimmer attachment for grooming side burns, and other hairlines (eye brows for me). Just pop off the triple head from the top and snap in the trimmer. simple and convenient. Besides the great shave, the styling is handsome. Built in display shows charge left. I used about 15 % in four days.

This Philips Norelco Prestige S9000 is a premium rotary shaver and makes it close shaving! Great grip, liggt weight, quiet and QI enabled charging. The LED shoews battery percentage. Smart reminder for cleaning and replacement and travel lock. Three shaving modes to get the best shaving “slow is my best” gives me better finish. Quality of this shaver is amazing and well made. Fully washable and can be used on wet and dry condition.

Over the years i have had many electric shavers, usually the expensive ones ($2-300.00), only to use for a few weeks then switch back to the precision of a blade. I'll use my blade for a couple years then get a wild hair and buy a fancy electric shaver. Then switch back and so on and so on... Well recently i saw this electric razor at BestBuy, with the wireless charging pad, it caught my attention in that it was wet / dry and could charge wirelessly, no dumb cord needed, i have enough in my bathroom sink area as it is (thanks Alexa). I have been using it about 3 weeks now and can honestly say, without a doubt, bar NONE, this is the best electric shaver i have ever used, it gives me a extremely close shave, dry with no lotion or anything, only time i use a razor is just to get my sideburns clean, that little area which is hard to get with any electric razor. Im extremely impressed with this particular electric shaver. I would easily toss this in my bag and take on a trip with me, i'm pretty sure you can unplug the wireless charging pad and use that power cable as a direct cable into the electric razor. Cleaning it is a breeze, it just pops open, rinse it with water, let it dry and your back in business. If you can afford this, and your picky about a VERY close shave i would highly recommend this electric razor. I'm not small guy either, i have a pretty rough stubble on my face and this thing just performs 5 stars. Ok, now i'm late to work writing a dumb review! Hope this helps!

This is the beat razor I have ever used. The shave is close and comfortable. I really like the different shave speeds also. Cleans up quickly and I really like the charging pad!

Great shaver, took me a little bit to get used to dry shaving, but it was easy and painless with this shaver! No hair pulling at all. It just took a couple of passes compared to a regular shaver (I have thick facial hair). It did leave my skin a little dry, however I don't blame the shaver, I live in a very dry weather area, so perhaps I should try wet shaving next time, you can do that with this shaver! It can be used either wet or dry! It comes with a trimmer attachment to, which is great. I like the included qi wireless charger, it may work with other qi enabled devices, I have not tried, but will do so with a phone soon, since the qi is a standard. You have to clean it after every shave, which is easy just rinsing it. The manual says you have to replace the blades after a long while, so time will tell how long the original one lasts, I just hope the replacements are not that expensive. In all, after using it, no way I'm going back to regular shavers!

Every once and a while an item comes along that makes you say “Wow!” The Philips Norelco S9000 Prestige Smart Click Wet/Dry Electric Shaver did that for me. Exceptional quality from the packaging to the product, this S9000 Prestige is a complete electric shaver. • The firm carrying case fits snug for the S9000 Prestige shaver and charging pad. It keeps the electric shaver from any harm during travel. You can even turn off the electric shaver in travel lock mode so it won’t turn on while traveling in the case. • The charging pad is a high tech Qi contoured platform. You get 60 mins of shaving on a 3 hr charge. I found I didn’t need to charge it quite as long for a full charge. By placing the S9000 Prestige in the special charging pad contoured for the shaver, a translucent light comes on and tells you if you are charging or already charged. This Qi flat platform can also be used with smart phones if they are compatible Qi. • When I was done with the 3 heads, I simply pulled the unit directly up on the outside of the heads to remove them together. Then I inserted the straight trimmer to even my sideburns or any other spot that I thought needed trimming. It is really easy to swap out these two parts in and out. • After using the S9000 Prestige, a light comes on to remind you to run the shaver under warm water. The water flows through and out of a hole in the bottom of the shaver. Now that you have cleaned the heads and need to let it dry before putting it back on the charging pad. It really doesn’t take long to dry. There are many more luxury features that the Philips Norelco S9000 Prestige has to help you with your ultra close shave. • The S9000 Prestige is contoured for a comfortable fit in your hand. Shaving in a circular motion without experiencing any hand fatigue is no problem with this shaver. I really enjoyed the speed and comfort of a fast shave. • The S9000 Prestige has “Nano Particles” that shave hair with contoured closeness. It really does make a difference with the tech part of the S9000 Prestige shaver. It leaves your face soft and supple after each shave. • Another excellent feature of the S9000 Prestige is the “Skin Comfort rings”. They have a special coating that moves around easily on your face especially in hard to reach areas. I felt no tug or pull of skin or hair when shaving the neck or jaw line areas. The S9000 Prestige didn’t leave behind any stubble when moving the shaver in a circular motion in the problem areas. • The 3 heads do an amazing job shaving close and irritation free. This is by far the absolute closest shave I have ever had, wet/dry. I moved the heads in a circular motion and applied very little pressure. The result was quick and painless close shave without stretching the skin. I have sensitive skin so this was key for me. • There are 3 comfort setting you can use: slow, medium and high. According to your preference you can use any one of the settings. Slow is considered friendlier to your face when shaving. Medium is supposed to be a more conventional setting. My personal choice is high because it provides the high powered closest shave. • The wet/dry option is essential in today’s electric shaving market. I preferred to use the S9000 with wet/shaving foam. It helped me get a smoother and closer shave. It is nice not to worry about the electric shaver getting wet or razor burn. • When the S9000 Prestige battery gets too low for a shave an orange light will come on with a beep. It simply means it needs to charge. There are digital numbers indicating the percentage how much power the shaver has left. I found this especially helpful if I didn’t charge the S9000 Prestige from my last shave. There is also a battery bar to shows how much charge you have left as well. • There is even an alarm when the heads get blocked when shaving or are damaged. A red light will appear on the shaving screen. I have to say this is the best shaver I have ever had. Usually I don’t shave much because my skin is sensitive, but the S9000 Prestige is built for sensitive skin and/or thick skin. So I have had no trouble with redness or pulling hairs. I normally don’t get too excited about shaving but the Philips Norelco S9000 Prestige Smart Click Wet/Dry Electric Shaver has changed all of that for me. I now can have an ultra smooth fast comfortable shave. We live in a high tech world and the Philips Norelco S9000 Prestige is a high tech shaver that leads the pack.

I have never been able to use an electric shaver until now. Nothing is ever powerful enough or shaves close enough for my liking due to my course and plentiful whiskers. That is, until now. I know this razor is expensive, but in my opinion it is worth every penny. Where do I begin? First of all, opening the box and the convenient travel case that it comes in reveals a visually stunning piece of equipment. It is sleek and beautiful. It comes with a Qi charging pad and a trimmer attachment. I had to clear a spot on my bathroom counter for the charging pad which is a little large in my opinion. I put the razor on the pad to revisit at a later time. When I came back to my charged up razor, I turned it on and started to shave. This thing is powerful! Just holding it in your hands feels good. Even though the razor kind of jumps when you turn it on, it is so quiet. I decided to just splash some water on my face and not use any soap or shaving cream to see how it worked. Unbelievable! This thing shaves pretty much just as close as a straight razor. It glides so effortlessly over my chin contouring to every curve, nook, and cranny! I never in my life would have thought that an electric razor could shave so close. Halfway through my shave, I was greeted with an alert to let me know that there was a clog in the heads. How awesome is that! I cleared the heads and continued what turned out to be a wonderful shave; definitely the best electric shave I have ever had. Now that I have the S9000, I cannot imagine going back to straight razor shaves. I know this thing is a little expensive, but quality and performance costs money folks.
