“I don't know if it's any better than the previous version 9000 as the last Philips shaver I used was the series 7000 but it's the first electric shaver that manages to give me a smooth shave on my neck.”r/shaving
Reddit's shaving community is sharply divided on whether the Prestige's premium credentials justify its price over cheaper stablemates. One user with decades of experience called it the “best razor I had over 65 years”4, while another noted more practically that it was “the first electric shaver that manages to give me a smooth shave on my neck”5. Yet a detailed community writeup warns prospective buyers that the Prestige shares “same motor same blades” with cheaper models in the range, and cautions that the step up amounts mainly to an aluminum body and a wireless charger that is “slower and, in my opinion, less convenient”7 for travel. The consensus that emerges is that the Prestige “cuts better and feels more premium”6
