[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had Philips Norelco shaver 1280x for many many years and yes it is still working except the battery charges only 20 minutes and you guys not selling replacement for it so I bought i9000 and it is excellent shaver yes I love it very much it is a 10 from me thank you. Very good job 👍
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall the shaver is good. My first impressions were how fast and complete it shaved. I really liked the AI feedback. After a month, I am noticing a couple things; 1)battery life is very short. I leave the shaver in the charging stand so it is always fully charged but after a 2-3 minute shave and a single cleaning run in the upside down cleaner, the battery is often at 64%, that means 2 shaves and 2 cleanings on a single charge; 2)after about a month I notice I am missing a number hairs in every shave and need to go back and touch up. This is likely how I am shaving but come on shaving isn’t that difficult.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent shaver. Haven't used a blade since the purchase as it is as good or better than my Gillette blade
Up until this purchase, I used a Braun. It stopped working after 8 years and based on reviews and What Philips wrote about their razor, I decided to buy the Prestige Ultra. It took me 4 days to master the proper use, my foil razor took me about a half an hour to learn to use it properly. The prestige feel good in the hand, it’s a lovely design, but unfortunately this is where the praise stops. It doesn’t give me a close shave in 3,4,or even 6 minutes at any setting. At best it leaves me with barely visible beard that feels as rough as sandpaper. It does not cut at or below the surface and the hair under my chin and above my upper lip have that 5 o’clock shadow no matter how much or how long I shave.
