How do Philips electric shavers compare with manual razors, beard trimmers and other grooming tools?
A Philips electric shaver is a good choice if you want a close, comfortable shave with the convenience of electric shaving. You can shave dry or use water and shaving foam/gel if you prefer.
Compared with a manual razor, an electric shaver offers greater everyday convenience and can help reduce the risk of nicks and cuts when used correctly. A manual razor may provide a very close skin-level shave, but typically requires more preparation and direct blade contact with the skin.
Compared with a beard trimmer, an electric shaver is designed to provide a cleaner, closer shave. A beard trimmer is the better choice if you want to maintain stubble, control beard length, shape your beard or create defined styles. Many Philips shavers also include a precision trimmer for finishing sideburns and moustache lines.
If an electric shaver is right for you, Philips offers different options depending on your needs: Series 1000–3000 for straightforward everyday shaving, Series 5000 for reliable everyday performance, Series 7000 when additional skin comfort is a priority, and the i9000 range for premium closeness and advanced shaving technology. For Philips’ most premium shaving experience, choose the i9000 Prestige Ultra.
