Great, light-weight electric shaver
When I pulled this out of the box, the device was at 10% charge; plugging it in had it charged to 100% in probably an hour or less (I wasn't monitoring closely). I've tried this out for a few days now and it gives a very close shave and contours to parts of your face without having to go over it over and over again. I do have slightly sensitive skin so there was some irritation when I first tried it out but after changing the settings for sensitive skin and using it a few more times. The instruction manual actually recommends you give this at least three shaves within a week to give your body time to acclimate to a new shaving system. I always dry shave with electric shavers but this one is capable of doing wet shaving with shaving cream as well, which should help out with achieving a closer shave without irritation. I am slightly confused by the charging mechanism as the dock that this shaver comes with does not function as a charging dock - it's exclusively intended to house the cleaning solution for cleaning the razor mechanisms. The shaver needs to be connected directly to the charging cable to be charged. Speaking of the razors, the heads are all water resistant and can be rinsed under running water to wash out hair and debris. This also comes with a trimmer head that you can easily swap out with minimal effort. I was shocked to feel how light this shaver was to hold. I think it was designed strategically to be lightweight without reducing the feel of quality and good construction. My only issue really has to do with the dock (hence the 4/5 stars) as I would expect it to be a charging dock but it's not a deal breaker. It is a compact cleaning mechanism as other comparable systems have HUGE docks to be able to hold the cleaning solution. Speaking of compact, this also comes with a hardshell storage case that also has space for the charger, cleaning brush, and trimming attachment.

Works as good as it looks!
I’ve owned several Norelco shavers over the years, but this Philips-Norelco S9000 was like going from an SUV to a sports car! It’s a very attractive yet functional design that fits and balances very well into my hand. One of its best features is hard to miss, as it displays the actual battery charge status on the front display when it is moved or powered on. Oddly, there is also a low-battery indicator light. Other indicators in the display tell you when it’s time to clean it or change the shaving heads. Besides the large power button there is a rocker switch to adjust the shaving mode. The shaving head has a similar triple layout to my older unit, but they are in a more splayed-out pattern, putting them farther apart and making the overall shaver head larger. Being used to the old dimensions, it took me a few shaves to get the hang of the new configuration, but I found that it made it easier to get into and around some of the tougher spots such as under the nose. The individual heads flex a lot to get over curves such as around my chin. Overall a nice design and it gives a very close shave. I always shave dry but this shaver will work in the shower or with shaving gel. Unlike the usual pop-up trimmer of most shavers, the S9000 uses a removable trimmer that you insert after pulling off the main shaving head. At first I didn’t care for this since it’s one more part to keep track of, but then I found that it makes it a lot easier to see what I’m doing with the trimmer on top – for example when squaring up my sideburns – than with a pop-up trimmer on the side. It’s more like having a separate personal trimmer device. One unique thing included with the shaver is the cleaning pod, which consists of a part to hold the shaver and contains a replaceable cartridge with the cleaning solution. This is all new to me and since I have only had the shaver for a short time I have not tried it out, but it looks like a good way to clean the shaver at the cost of buying refills in the future.
