PHILIPSElectric Shaver 3000 Series - Wet & Dry Electric Shaver for Men with SkinProtect Technology in Space Grey, Pop-up Beard Trimmer, Cordless Shaver with Travel Pouch (Model S3241/12)

So glad I chose this Philips Shaver, it give such a nice shave, a lot closer and smoother than other Philips shavers I've had in the past. I only bought this because I had to return a Remington that was awful, chalk and cheese comparing the two shavers. It's pretty quiet, glides over skin even in a dry shave, I'm assuming the upgrade to 5G rotary heads puts This above the standard 4G heads that Philips have used? I've just used it with shaving gel for a 'wet' shave, amazing! Even smoother and close with zero redness or burn, REALLY impressed! I was lucky to get this Philips S3000 at a heavily discounted price that took it to less than half it's RRP, very cheap considering the performance. Inside the box is the shaver, a usb charging lead and a head cover. No thrills, but there's also an option to register it with Philips for a free extended warranty and I've now got 3 YEARS Extended Warranty! 😎👍🏻

Having used a razor for such a long time, I was unsure which electric raid would suit me best. After much deliberation, I went for this one and I was not disappointed.The razor is very quiet, and gives a good clean shave in about 5 minutes. The pop out edge trimmer is useful for edging sideburns and catching the stray nose and ear hairs.Cleaning is a easy as a quick rinse under the tap, then leave to do dry.I have so far used the razor about 6 times, and there still seems to be plenty of battery left, so it's definitely a good tool to take away when needed.All in all, I'm very impressed and happy with this razor.

I've had two Philips AquaTouch AT899 shavers over the past decade; both of which gave a brilliant shave, but both of which also failed on me at various points. The 3000 series appears to be the closest equivalent, which at £60 (compared to the £40 or so I'd previously spent per razor) seems to be their current entry range for a wet & dry shaver. The 3000 is bigger/taller but slimmer than the AT899, but overall a similar design and nice to hold.I usually use it in the shower with foam or gel. In terms of performance, on initial impressions, it doesn't offer quite as smoother shave as the older AT899, which felt almost as close as a typical cartridge razor. The 3000 gives a pretty rough dry shave, though it does give a more satisfactory wet shave, which for me is its main purpose. It is adequate for the job - though it doesn't feel like an upgrade, despite the higher price tag. It is a comfortable shave; no burn or pulling, and the motor's not too loud either.The position of the power button is more central on the body (on the AT899, it was easy to accidentally switch it off during mid-shave), so I'm still getting used to this lower location. Its only physical design flaw is the button to open the head is less discreet and more prominent; it was ideally positioned on the AT899, slightly hidden under the head, whereas now it's much easier to flip it open even when removing or replacing the cap. The sideburn trimmer pops out and does exactly what you'd expect.One main difference is this comes with a USB charging cable, rather than the traditional two-prong shaver plug (and the fitting is such that it will only work with the USB cable), and it charges pleasingly fast. In the box, you get a cap and a fabric travel bag for it, but there's no little brush, like what you used to get.Overall, it seems like a well-made and decent product for its price bracket - I can't bring myself to spend in excess of £100 or more on a higher model (what kind of nonsense are those prices?!), so I think for a day to day electric razor, it fits the bill nicely, even though I still preferred the results of past models.

I usually wet shave however this shaver is useful if I am in a hurry. It's compact and works reasonably well one charge lasts some time. It comes in its own cloth carry case and has a couple of power levels. It is easy to clean when finished and good value for monet
