Shaver Series 8000Wet and Dry electric shaver

Although a mid range razor, the closeness is a lot better than my last one. I find it glides over the skin. Not tried a wet shave yet, but I am more than impressed with my purchase. You only get what you pay for. Only downside the instruction book could be better.

A much closer shave than my previous shaver and with no skin irritation, quick to charge and easy to clean. A real upgrade!

It took a few days to become familiar with this shaver - particularly using a circular motion to achieve the most effective shave. Once that was done it is an excellent shaver, having a long lasting charge and giving a very smooth skin. It is very easy to clean and dries in a couple of hours. My 3rd Philips shaver and by far the best

Black Friday 2025 gave me the opportunity to buy a Philips i9000 shaver. I am very happy to have it.

I have to assume that Philips and it's competitors have all improved a huge amount through the years judging by my i9000/30 which has exceeded my expectations so far (a few weeks now). As an 'older gentleman' I have decades of experience with wet shaving and have owned older models from both Philips and Braun and neither gave me a shave like this. Efficient and smooth to the point I don't need to wet shave, happy used dry or wet (with or without a light amount of shaving gel or soap), fine in front of a mirror or in the shower (keeping it away from the water stream of course) and so simple I use it daily instead of wet shaving 2 or 3 times per week. Maybe the best part and the reason I bought this particular model is the cleaning case. I flip the head open, rinse under a tap, close it, put it in the case and press the on button and leave it. It cleans and lubricates in about a minute, turns itself off and gently dries over the hours even I leave it like that. I dont have shares in Philips by the way, just complimentary about a good product.

Absolutely delighted! Smooth shave wet or dry and the edge trimmer finishes things off perfectly

A much improved shave over my old 9000 version. I do think that the curved head is a little cumbersome though. I like the flip up trimmer but do miss the drier of the old jet system

Excellent shaver great for the shower very close shave

An excellent electric razor which gives me a smooth close shave. The best yet from Philips and I have been using their electric razors for over 50 years. Highly recommended.
