Philips Norelco Shaver 7100, Rechargeable Wet & Dry Electric Shaver with SenseIQ Technology and Pop-up Trimmer for Male S7788/82

I bought this several months ago and am very pleased with the shaver. It is very comfortable in my hand because the design is larger than my much older Norelco triple head shaver. They also improved the plastic protective cover so it does not fall off when you set the shaver down. I use this on a daily basis and the battery holds its charge for few weeks before charging is required. I did not get the upgraded models that offer an app interface and any other bells & whistles. I just wanted the close, comfortable shave that I am accustomed to with Norelco shavers this model does exactly that.

Wholly smokes! This shaver is AWESOME! Shaves fast, does not leave hair, glides on the skin, leaves a smooth shave. Has a pop up trimmer.Braun does not do/have any of this.Reliability is an open question.As a Braun user for decades, I had reservation about three rotating heads. But the head acclimates to the body contours, and leaves a very smooth surface. Wish I dumped Braun earlier, instead of sicking out with a deteriorating brand.

I bought this shaver to replace my previous one, a Phillips Norelco wet and dry electric shaver 8000 series (specifically S8950), which had served me well for many years. Unfortunately, it was dropped and got broken (the head was out of alignment and noisy).I wanted to just buy another identical model to replace it, but I was disappointed to find that it's discontinued.This product, the Series 7000, appears to be the replacement model for that same tier of product.-I have more gripes than positive things to say, so I'll get the complaints out of the way first:There's noticeably more drag against my skin, sliding the shaver head across my face.Maybe it's because of the texture of the surface of the head; maybe it's because there's simply more physical surface area on this head than on the old one.On that topic, the marketing material promotes the "nano skin glide" texture on the bezels, to help reduce friction, but lemme tell you what - you wouldn't need to worry so much about reducing friction if you didn't add a ton of UNNECESSARY SURFACE AREA around the bezels!That extra surface area is pointless. The expanded bezels serve no utilitarian purpose and they get in the way when shaving your upper lip, making it harder to get a clean shave all the way up under the nose.The 8000 series had such a sensible bezel design, it might even have been possible to minimize them even more, but instead they went the opposite direction and tried to make it look like Optimus Prime.I'm also not really a fan of the fact that the head flips open on a hinge rather than just popping all the way off like my old model. If I tap it against the sink edge to shake out the stubble debris, the hinge pops out and the lid falls off into the sink. The flip-up feature isn't actually helpful for ease of cleaning.Furthermore, I do not want to connect my shaver to an app on my phone.The only thing I want to connect my shaver to is a power outlet when it needs to be recharged.I don't need to pay more for a shaver with a built-in accelerometer and a web-connected app that tells me whether I'm waving the shaver in circles hard enough. I've been shaving my face for over 35 years and I know the angles at which the hair grows out of my neck far better than an app programmed by someone who hasn't even been alive that long. I can discern the effectiveness of my shaving technique by feeling my face with my fingers. I don't need an app to tell me how to do it better.-That said, here's what good I can say about it:It delivers the best, smoothest electric shave I've ever had.

This the most incredible shaver I have ever owned. Just as good as a blade. Bought a Braun series 8. What a piece of expensive junk. Foil shavers suck. This Norelco is the best

I'm 63 years old. This is the best electric shaver by far, that I've ever used! It handles Every contour of my face without missing spots. Very easy to use. I would definitely recommend this to everybody. Thanks to Amazon 😀

Why did you pick this product vs others?:The best razor my husband has ever had. Cuts close. He looks great and he's 88 years old.

I purchased this product as an upgrade from my Philips 5000. It is functionally very good, giving a decent, close shave in less time than the 5000. The trimmer works well and the product washes up nicely after each shave. However the SenseIQ technology – a Bluetooth link to a mobile phone app – is worse than useless. I have been shaving this face for more decades than I care to remember and I think I know its peculiarities better than an app that was probably written in the last couple of years. And when I noticed that the app caused my iPhone to heat up, that was the last straw and I deleted it.So if I ignore the complaining LEDs that keep showing up on the device each time I shave, It is actually a pretty good shaver.

First time shave with this product, and WOW! It really exceeded my expectations. I've been using another brand electric prior to this one ( I bought one guided by price! Thinking all do the same! Me Bad) Oh my! A world of difference! Clean Shave, Quick Charge, Easy to clean. I highly recommend this razor!
