Philips Norelco Shaver 9300 Review

Philips Norelco Shaver 9300The Philips Norelco Shaver 9300 is part of the the most advanced shaver series produced by this manufacturer, the 9000 series.

The innovative Contour Detect Technology is what makes this such an amazing shaver. The shaving heads are aligned in such a way that they each move independently and each head will move in eight different directions as they follow each curve and line on your face. The design is said to allow for a 20-percent increase in hair captures in a single pass compared to a shaver without this technology. Plus, the shaving system incorporates newly designed V-Track Precision blades that are angled in such a way that they can cut hairs up to 30-percent closer.

Speed settings on the Philips Norelco Shaver 9300 add a touch of personalization to your morning or evening ritual. They also allow you to better match your skin and hair type, with the Slow speed meant for a ‘skin-friendly’ shave, Medium for a thorough shave and Fast for a high-powered shave. The SmartClean System can be activated at the touch of a button and it will not only clean your shaver, it will lubricate, dry and charge it as well. The multiple functions built into the SmartClean System ensure your shaver continues to operate reliably whenever you need it to.

Philips Norelco Shavers are quality products and the Series 9000 is an award winner. The sleek, contemporary styling of the Philips Norelco Shaver 9300 earned it the 2015 iF Design Award. The iF Design Award represents a quality that is found only in the most innovative design and design achievements. It is an award that gives this product a special distinction that is only reserved for the very best. Other iF Design Awards have been presented to products and designs that represent a wide spectrum ranging from design studio projects right on up to and including automobile manufacturing companies. For an electric razor to receive this honor, you know you are dealing with something more than an updated re-release of an existing product.

Philips Norelco Shaver 9300Another interesting feature on the Philips Norelco Shaver 9300 is what the manufacturer calls their AquaTec Technology. There’s also the built-in SmartClick precision trimmer which allows you to trim or shape sideburns, beard and moustache with a simple one finger click. The trimmer is solid, as it is built into the design of the shaver rather tha being a clickable add-on. What this actually means is that this shaver can be used either wet or dry. The complete package includes the shaver, the SmartClean system, a cleaning cartridge, the SmartClick trimmer, a power cord and a travel case.

According to Philips Norelco Shaver 9300 users:

This product is high on the list as a shaver you may need to take a closer look at. Aside from the clever design and feature packed extras, this product does produce a rather close Philips-Norelco-Shaver-9300-cleanerand comfortable shave. Credit is often given to the unique multi-directional floating head system. Users are reminded that not all shavers are the same and not all faces and skin conditions are exactly alike either so results may vary. With this in mind, many consumers with the Philips Norelco Shaver 9300 report that this razor does a great job in the close, smooth and pain-free shave department. The actual shaver is easy to hold because of the unique design which makes it comfortable to use. Speaking of use, another bonus from the design is that the shaver is also very simple to use. The display and buttons built into the design are easy to read and operate which takes away much of the extra work when you are in need of a quick trim.
The SmartClean System is not the best feature according to some online reviewers although it is a great extra feature. The word ‘bulky’ has been used to describe it but the work that it does to clean, lubricate, charge and condition your shaver makes the size of it something to simply overlook. If you are a blade shaver, you may not find the Philips Norelco Shaver 9300 capable of matching that kind of closeness but as far as electric razors are concerned, this one is pretty close to shaving with a blade.

Whilst its cousin, the Philips Norelco Series 9700 holds down a spot on our Best Electric Shaver List, the value of this Philips Norelco Shaver 9300 puts it very close behind, especially with an asking price some $100 cheaper.
