    First time using an electric shaver and WOW! Super easy to use and clean afterwards. I shave about every other day & it leaves my skin smooth. I dry shave & do not get skin irritation.

    As a Retired Senior Citizen, I have been using Norelco electric shavers for many years. I purchased my previous one in 2010. It still runs well except the battery is starting to get weak after 15 years of everyday use! Now it's ready for head replacement. Best Buy had this i9000 on sale, so I purchased it immediately. I am extremely happy, the best shaver I have ever owned. Great shave, great shaver. I highly recommend this Philips Norelco i9000 Prestige Ultra Shaver. So, go out and buy one now, you will not be disappointed!

    Absolutely Love this electric shaver. I can't use a razor because I'll bump up badly. I'm a 69yr old Black man and started shaving around 17/18. I've had many shavers in my lifetime but none have given me a razor,cut,smooth shave like the Phillips Prestige Ultra i9000. It's also by far the most expensive shaver I've ever bought at $280. It cuts so well that I don’t have to keep going over my face as much as I did with my previous shavers. I do feel a little more irritation from shaving because the shave is so close but it's not bad and my face will need to become accustomed to the blades over time. My last shaver was a Phillips brand but I think I only paid about $80 for it 12/15yrs ago and it's still working with the original battery. I did change the blades. Hopefully this shaver will last as long. It also has Bluetooth,senses motion,has an App you can download,all the bells and whistles. Can't say enough good things about this shaver! Would buy it again in a heartbeat.

    Great Premium Shaver

    The i9000 Prestige Ultra is a really nice high-end shaver that provides a really close and comfortable shave, along with a handy guide light. The app, while I still think it is a bit superfluous, has some helpful customization features and fortunately you can enjoy everything the shaver has to offer without it. The box for this particular model includes the shaver, trimmer attachment, travel case, charging stand, charging cable, and a cleaning brush. Based on the manual there are other versions of this shaver that include a different variety of accessories and this one seems to be one of the more basic bundles. The charging cable does not include an AC adapter, which is disappointing. The cable ends at a USB-A connection and that in itself isn’t bad, but the side that goes into the shaver is still proprietary, so you’ll need to make sure you pack that specific cable with it if you’re traveling. If they were going to go with a USB charging cable I wish they had gone the extra step and made the connection on the shaver and the base USB-C so you could use any cable to charge it. The i9000 is an excellent shaving experience. The shaving heads cover a large area and easily contour to my face. I’ve been using the regular shaving mode and it provides a very close shave with very little irritation. The built-in ring light provides feedback on whether or not you’re putting too much or not enough pressure on your face and it can also be customized for motion as well. It’s also very easy to clean and can be rinsed under the sink or brushed clean with the included mini brush. I will say this is not a shaver made for people with beards and it doesn’t offer a ton of precision. For something like that I’ll go back to my OneBlade. The app seemed like an unnecessary extra to me at first and for the most part it is, but it does offer some helpful customization on the default shaving state and what the ring light indicates. It shows the estimated life left on the shaving heads and the approximate number of shaves left on the current charge level. It also has a guided shave program built in, which I haven’t tried. The battery life after the first few days has been great and this will easily last a week, maybe two, without needing to charge. It takes a bit of the sting out of the charging cable situation. Overall I’m happy with the i9000 Prestige Ultra and I think it has a lot of nice features for its price. I do wish there was a little bit more in the way of accessories, but you can also spring for a different version of it.

    This is a great razor for all faces and skin types

    I exclusively use electric razors, and once your face is “conditioned” I don’t think you can beat the comfort and results of a high-quality rotary razor. I consider the Norelco i9000 Prestige Ultra the best rotary razor available today! The shaving head is slightly smaller than previous versions, and the material has been formulated to reduce drag. The shaver is ergonomically designed and a joy to hold, mainly due to the contoured case. The shaving head is removable and can be replaced with the included trimmer attachment, which eliminates the “boxy” feel that most shavers have since there’s no “pop-up” trimmer. Aside from the razor, shaving head, and trimming head, there is a charging stand, cleaning brush, and charging cord (not a power supply) included. There is no USB-A power block included for the charging cord or standard AC cord, but the cord from my older Norelco also fits the razor. This unit does not include the cleaning base, so if you don’t have one be prepared for a regular “clean razor” notification on the razor’s display panel. Aside from self-sharpening blades, the razor has a blade coating stated to reduce friction by 50%. Five shaving modes can be selected including sensitive, regular, intense, foam shaving, and custom controlled by a selector on the razor. There is an included power adapt sensor that adjusts the razor speed/power based on the density of your beard. You can also select a light guidance mode where lights around the edge of the razor will indicate whether you are effectively shaving and coach you for better shaver performance. The razor also connects via Bluetooth to their app which gives shaving insights as well as tracking razor usage. I’ve been using mine daily for a week, and the battery level is still above 90%, which includes running it in the cleaner after each use.

    Better than S9000 Prestige

    I bought S9000 Prestige directly from Philips almost one month ago and really liked it. After seeing this new version, I returned my original S9000 Prestige. This i9000 Prestige Ultra is much better in my opinion. The pressure sensor feature is amazing. The app keeps track of the Blade wear and tear plus the number of days remaining for the cleaning cartridge. It does not come with a cleaning cartridge so I had to buy it separately. I am using the same quick clean pod amd cartridge as S9000 Prestige. It works and cleans flawlessly. I also feel this new version provides a much better and close shave than S9000. Plus this new version is more silent. I would highly recommend.

    I promise you, i have a larger list of these products, with the One Shaver as my go to shave with. I even bought the expensive Braun Electric shaver kit that supposed to have the highest reviews. With the exception of the former, none of these products did not work for my type of hair. I would say that this product is extremely high, but it's the first time i actually develop confidence in a electric razor. I like to keep my face clean and i shave my head bald at least once a week, but with this product, it shaves so easy, all i have to do is run it through my head or face and it's smooth as baby skin.

    I purchased this for my boyfriend for Valentine's Day. I did a great deal of research to find a shaver that gave a close shave and was comfortable. The shavers we purchased before were a great deal less costly. I had my doubts. The shaver is amazing and worth every penny. My boyfriend says it is the closest and most comfortable shave that he has ever experienced. Great jog Best Buy!

    Norelco i9000 Ultra Shaver Review

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    While I haven't started using the app yet, the shaver, using shaving gel, is giving me the closest, smoothest, quickest shaves I've ever had. Definite thumbs up. It charges rather quickly as well. The trimmer is adequate for leveling side-burns, etc. but I honestly use a dedicated personal groomer for cutting/shaving hair. But all said, I like the shaver enough to say even though it's not cheap, I really like this shaver ... worth the money.

    Bought this shaver for my teenage son and he has used it a few times so far – he’s very happy with it. The Philips Norelco i9000 Prestige Ultra gives a smooth, comfortable shave, works perfectly for both wet and dry use, and the battery lasts long with convenient USB-C charging. Premium feel and excellent performance – highly recommend!

    ULTIMATE SHAVING EXPERIENCE

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Ive always had precious versions of this Norelco shavers, and i also have several braun 9 series shaver, but this model tramps them all. From its ergonomics to shaving quality this shaver delivera superior quality in both aspects. The only down side is the quality of the shaver itself where it seems a little bit less quality than its predessessor models.

    An amazing shaver that gives a face a smooth shave! I can stop buying blades and just reuse this Philips after every wash! Only disappointed thing was that for this price one would think it would bring an adapter…yet it didnt.

    As a local realtor when on a listing appointment, I need to look my best. And there’s no better way to get that clean, smooth shave than this brand new Norelco shaver I recently purchased. The controls are simple cleaning is a snap and the pressure sensors guide you on how to get a perfect shave every time. This shaver is my new best friend and it’s already made weekend trips a breeze to get that clean shave. I’ve been using a Norelco products for over four decades and hope to continue for at least four more.

    I had trouble with the shaver. It took two weeks for it to pair with GroomTribe. When I registered it via GroomTribe, the serial number was absent. The change cartridge icon came up after every shave. I did not get an extebded warranty. Unfortunately, i did not retain the box and packaging stuff, so i coujd not return it. Norekco was not helpful. It Proved easiest to discard the shaver and order a different model in the i9000 Prestige Ultra from Amazon. I think i just had a defective one. It gave a great shave and from that viewpoint i would recommend it.

    For anything that you use near daily, it is definitely worth investing in quality. This is head a shoulders above the typical $60-$80 electric razors I used to buy. This has a premium feel and provides the closest shave I've yet experiences, short of an actual straight razor. Also, the battery indicator and travel lock come in handy! Recommended
