Excellent shave. Well worth the price. I have multiple beard hair thicknesses and it gets them all.

Smooth, soft and clean shave after using this shaver. Super nice!!!

Very close shave just baight it not long ago and just ised it dry shave almost as good as blade

transformed my mornings as I no longer get any cuts or skin allergies from using regular blades.

Best shave ever. Not a fan of the clipper attachment. Not sure why others have complained about the battery life.

This is an expensive shaver, but it has to be the best one I have ever used. I have been a norelco user for many yrs now and this one has some neat features. The rings around the blades make it glide like none other. Cold face or not shaved for days makes no differance,. I could have put new blades in my previous one but sooo glad i moved up......

The razor works well and provided a clean shave right from the start.

I have owned almost every model Norelco has ever made, and this is by far the best and sharpest model they have manufactured to date.

Blade doesn’t last as long as I would like but I would still say it is the best razor I have ever had.

A great electric shaver. I recently transitioned and I enjoy the way this works. It does such better and close shave when you apply a wet shave.

This is one of the shavers on the market. Expensive but good

It’s an okay product. Battery is good, shaves well but if you are new to using an electric shaver it might take practice to get the shave you want.

A little bit of a learning curve for perfect shave, but one you get the hang of it- it is awesome!

Never had a shaver that cut thru my beard and smoothed out my face as this did! Awesome!!!

The very best electric shaver I’ve owned. Quality and craftsmanship resulting in a quick, close snd comfortable shave.

A little pricey, but does a good job with the adjustable shaving speeds. I wish it had the built in trimmer like my older norelco.

Bit expensive but overall very smooth shave and the trimmer works great

This has been so far best shaver. I used to shave my head mostly and it works perfect. Easy to clean up and good battery life

Best electric shaver I've ever owned. I'm retired and I think I'm set for life now.

The S9000 Prestige Electric Shaver with the Qi-Charge base is a good product for fans of rotary head designs over the years but it does have some shortcomings and the 'linear' crowd will probably not be enticed to make the switch. The S9000 Prestige Electric Shaver with the Qi-Charging comes in an efficient package with a trimmer attachment and a wonderful premium carrying case. My sample arrived with about a 50% battery level and I was pleased to see how quickly it charged to 100% sitting on the Qi base. Unfortunately, the first noticeable downside to this design is the rapid discharge experienced after approximately 5 minutes of shave time - which I will cover in more detail later. The shaver is attractive in it's design and color scheme. It is much lighter in-hand than I had anticipated, almost a bit too light, which detracts from the perception of a solid - quality design (when compared to my experience with Norelco shavers of the past). The grips are good and the overall ergonomics are sound, with a big display and easily used controls. In operation, the shaver is amazingly quiet at all three speeds which was unexpected. I'm not quite sure the real benefit to having three rotational speeds after trying them all on different days didn't produce any appreciable qualities differences to the results. Nonetheless, even at this shaver's highest speed the 'sound quality' is pretty nice. What I did find rather disappointing was the shavers battery performance and this probably has a lot to do with the fact that the internal battery is small in capacity. On average, using the middle speed setting, the battery capacity would routinely drop by 12 to 16 percent for a 5 minute shaving session. I personally find this amount of drain unacceptable with respect to traveling without the charging base. I routinely get 7+ days of solid usage from a competing 'linear' based competitor and find confidence in knowing that I can go a solid week without worrying about recharging while on the road. I don't have that same confidence with this shaver. It seems to me that at this price-point, designing in a larger capacity battery would enhance this facet of usage whilst at the same time increasing the weight of the unit - thereby enhancing the perception of quality. YMMV With respect to the quality of the shave, I found this shaver to give a nice and comfortable close shave over the course of a week or so. My only gripe would be that I personally achieve a better quality of shave in the neck region from a linear design. I was hoping that after many years of not owning a Norelco rotary design that by now they would have come closer to perfecting overall performance no matter what region was being tackled - but for me - this shaver takes much effort to achieve an effective neck shave. Overall, I think this design is a big win for established customers of Norelco rotary designs and will appeal to many of them at that point where they are upgrading. It looks stylish, is ergonomically designed without any big variance from previous Norelco designs in terms of structure and from what I can tell - is notably quieter than older designs. But it stills feels a bit light and cheap in the hand for my tastes.
