- Honest Reviews Matter! Check out this review between the Philips Norelco S9000 and the Philips Norelco Shaver 3800
Being bald and hairy may seem like an oxymoron, but it is a real problem and it is one that I have. Check out these 2 razors in the lineup against an almost $200 price difference. Is the bang in the buck or are we paying for more than we should? You be the judge!

Now thats how you review a product.
Thanks
On every shaver I have had, the trimmer blade eventually gets dull and pulls hair. While you can change the shaving heads, it usually requires sending the shaver in to have the trimmer replaced! For just a few dollars, the Norelco s9000 trimmer is user replaceable. I personally think that’s awesome!
Thanks. Just ordered the 3800.
This was a fantastic review. Really like the time you put into showing us the comparison. Have you ever used a foil shaver like the one's from Braun?
I haven't. Do you have any suggestions?
I like this guy..no bullshitting in involved !
thank you for this video. you did a great job.
“Prestige Worldwide” hahaha I thought that as soon as you stated the model name
The speed control is for comfort and prevent razor burn at high speed.
I use to suffer with ingrown hair, and what i founfld is that all the ones i had to dig out was multiple hairs in one, so i started growing my beard and all the big multiple ones i pulled out with a tweezer, over time i had non left, now i can grow and shave without problems. I don't use cream or aftershave just soap
thanks for the comment. I am glad to hear youre not suffering with them anymore BECAUSE they truly are terrible!
Still using my trusty old Norelco Speed XL 8151XL that I bought in 2005. While the Genuine HQ9 blades are getting harder to find, they are quite possibly the best shaver heads Norelco has ever made. They are triple track and true lift-and-cut, unlike modern Philips Norelco blades, which have eliminated the lift-and-cut feature.
One other thing, the Gen2 9000 series now has a pop-up trimmer built-in and they also improved the shaver head as it now has a pop open head to make cleaning the shaving head much easier. Glad I waited to buy the Gen2, which arrives later this week. Hopefully the pop-up trimmer is better than what is in the 3800.
Hey Bill, get the Volko sharpening kit and resharpen your HQ-9's. I'm still running my original blades in my 8240XL and I still get a smooth shave from them. The HQ-9's are the best shaver heads Norelco ever made, with HQ-8's coming in a close 2nd in my 8865XL Spectra. It's a great shave just not as smooth as I get from the HQ-9's.
@@BillShelly My 1260X 3D shaver had the same problem your 9800 had, I ended up replacing the lithium battery since jumping the old one didn't work. The 9800 look's like a nice shaver, not that I need a new one☺️
Your trimmer is defective on your new 3800. I have a bigger beard than yours and I had the 3500 version before in the past. The 3500 is the 3800, it literally is the same thing. (the 3800 gives you a dock and different color that's it). But the trimmer on my 3500 mowed it down fast to a stubble.
Thank You for the review looking for one to buy for my hubs …
Thanks for watching!
Have you tried exfoliating your skin with stuff like AHA+BHA or urea to prevent ingrown hair?
For the shaver, I see that you are moving downward, but I would recommend moving upward. That is how I shave my sideburn.
Thank you. I'll try that out. What razor do you use?
Nice vid.
Cold water and Bevel aftershave cream. But before you shave exfoliate your face
For ingrown hairs try using witch hazel after u shave as after shave. Look It up
I dont know why i didnt think of that , thank you!
Can you show me a tutorial on the Philips Norelco 6900 on how to clean that please
8:34 that pop up head to clean is WAY more reliable though. I don't have the 3800 series like you, but I have the gen before it, the 3500 series. LOOKS IDENTICAL to your 3800 EXCEPT the color is blue and black, not sliver and black. Oh and also I don't get a dock with mine, but It cost $59. Oh so anyway long story short; the pop up clean on the cheaper ones break so easily. On mine, the eject button broke. It is an impossible fix and renders the shaver useless. No one can sell that part, not even Philips themselves. Yes I'm aware of the replacement head, but the eject button still is on the machine itself. It lasted 1 year too 😡. So basically what I did was upgraded to an expensive one like yours or similar I think it is 9700 or 9500, idk the number is earased now BECAUSE it's been 2 years and it is rock hard solid. EVERYTHING is "knock on wood" on it. Also the removable trimmer adds to reliability as well. Anything that pops up can break easily because it's spring and plastic loaded. I'd rather have the physical removable parts on mine. Also your trimmer is broken on the 3800. It ain't even cutting anything. My 3500 is like the aquatech, it cuts my beard almost down to stubble. Something ain't right with your trimmer on the 3800. It might be defective
I agree , it's either broken or the quality just went way down hill. Thanks for watching and for the great feedback for myself and my viewers.
Man I totally disagree with you on the trimmer installing on the side
1. It is not as easy to use
2. It is weaker due to ergonomics of using energy from the engine
3. When it wears out it is much easier to replace it
My fav is still the older one I needed to replace ....which really sucks they don't make it like that anymore
@honestreviewswithnick I'm old school too Nick. The old Norelco's were built like tanks and were repairable. I have 3 of them that still shave well. 8140XL, 8240XL, 8865XL. I also have a 1260X Sensotouch 3D Shaver that I'm replacing the battery in after 15 years of use. 9000 Series heads fit the older 3D shaver and that's a major upgrade for my old shaver that keeps shaver replacement costs at a minimum. I say rebuild and reuse.
I tried the panasonic arc 5 and wasn't impressed. Wondering if the 9000 is significantly better?
are you using it for a fine shave only or using as well for trimming ?
You pay for the Philips name. Some of the no name razors are actually better than philishave
Cool
Does the s9000 fit into the stand for the 3800?
I am not sure. I am sorry I didnt see this earlier
I have philips sensor touch 3D its charged but wont turn on
Does it light up?, battery voltage may be so low that the charger sensor doesn't detect it and power on. I had to replace the battery in my 1260X 3D shaver.
ty se holis strojkem taky se holim strojkem 👍
Why.did.you.get.another. shaver
my go to shaver was dying very quickly after years of use.
@@honestreviewswithnickReplace your battery, it's easy.
Why in the F do all these shavers now NOT work while plugged in?
Probably a safety issue of People electrocuting themselves somehow I'll try to use them because we need to put warning labels on coffee that it's too hot. Don't submerge yourself in water while you shave plugged in LOL
@@honestreviewswithnick haha you're most probably right there. I guess what I'm saying though is, most people don't seem to even prefer to use the whole "wet" aspect of shaving (with shaving cream) with these types of shavers. I'd definitely give up wet shaving option for corded shaving option. If my battery goes dead during a shave, I want to just plug it in and keep going. If I live the shaver I have and over time the battery wears out and is no good anymore, I'd prefer the option to keep using it as a corded shaver.
Taking away these for wet shaving, that so little do anyways, I don't get it. Dummy proofing the shaver is a dummy move to me haha
@@jackoff1826 hahah for sure. Speaking of a wet shave, I have yet to go to a barber and get a legit straight razor shave. I gotta do that sometime.
:))
Bro you don't even know what you're doing, you're not supposed to use the Trimmer on a grown beard like that... Read the instructions.. 🤦♂️
1. It was for the worst case scenario illustration. 2. My other Norelco had no problems with such amount of hair. 3. Thanks for watching and commenting
@@honestreviewswithnick
0.- I mean, you're funny.. Thanks for replying...
You are shaving the wrong way! No wonder the razors your testing suck butt. You have to shave against the growth of the hair. Your shaving with the growth which basically just pushes the hair back down and not getting a clean cut. Shave against the hair pushes the hair up which allows for a cleaner cut.
