Item arrived packaged very well. Instructions are clear and precise and the charging stand is easy to use.
I used it for a wet/soap shave and it's very effective on a 2 day growth. I don't think I'd wait 3 days + before using it. I think it would struggle with longer growth.
Feels very good in the hand and is quite light, yet sturdy with good ergonomics.
Easy to clean and air dry (always) as per instructions. Would recommend this product.
Close Shave, Less Irritation: This shaver delivers a surprisingly close shave, especially for an electric razor at this price point. No more stubble for me! Plus, the 5D pivot heads hug my face's contours to minimize irritation. My skin feels smooth and comfortable all day long.
Wet or Dry Convenience: I love the versatility of using this shaver wet or dry. For a quick shave, I can use it dry straight out of the shower. For a closer shave or extra pampering, I can use it with shaving cream in the shower.
Easy to Clean: Pop open the head and rinse it under the faucet for a hassle-free cleaning routine. No messy shaving cream cleanup!
Bonus Features: The pop-up trimmer is perfect for maintaining my mustache and sideburns. The included charging stand and storage pouch are convenient extras that keep everything organized.
Great Value: Overall, the Philips Norelco Shaver 3800 offers fantastic value for the price. It delivers a close shave, is comfortable to use, and comes with handy features.
If you're looking for an affordable electric shaver that provides a close, comfortable shave, the Philips Norelco Shaver 3800 is an excellent option. It's definitely exceeded my expectations!
Some things to consider:
While it delivers a close shave, it might take a few more passes compared to a blade razor to achieve ultimate smoothness.
It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of some high-end electric shavers, but for the price, it offers excellent performance.
Shaving Performance: This shaver shaves very well. Several years ago I purchased one of Norelco's expensive top-of-the-line models. I found that it didn't shave any better than the mid-priced models I usually buy.
Pop-Up trimmer: This is the worst thing about this razor. It doesn't work very well when I use it to trim my sideburns and mustache. I find it difficult to get a straight line on my sideburns. I ended up buying a dedicated trimmer just for my sideburns and mustache. The poor performance of the pop-up trimmer is the reason I rated this razor at four stars instead of five.
Shaving Time Per Charge: I get at least forty-five minutes of shaving on a single charge. As with other devices that use a rechargeable battery, you can expect the number of shaves per charge to diminish as the razor ages. It takes approximately one (1) hour to recharge the razor.
Indicator Lights: This razor is equipped with three white lights on the housing that indicate the charging status (the owner’s manual provides full details). An orange light will begin to flash when you have no more than five (5) minutes of shaving time remaining.
Housing Shape: Compared to some of my older Norelco razors, the housing shape of this razor is a little more square and less rounded. At first I didn’t like it as much. But I’ve gotten used to it. Overall, it fits comfortably in my hand.
Blades: Norelco says to replace the blades once a year. I find this to be a good recommendation. I once went eighteen months on an older Norelco before buying new blades. The razor got to the point where it wasn't shaving very well. A new set of blades fixed the problem. Note: When you purchase a new set of Philips Norelco blades, they come with a matched set of slotted combs. Tip: I once purchased some cheaper third-party blades not made by Philips Norelco. That was a mistake. They didn't shave well at all. I returned them, and now I only buy genuine Philips Norelco blades. They’re more expensive, but they’re worth it. Look closely when buying replacement blades. Many third-party brands try to make you think you’re purchasing the genuine article. All of the genuine Philips Norelco blades that I’ve purchased were made in the Netherlands.
Shave Wet or Dry: I like that I can use this razor wet or dry. When I want the closest possible shave, I first cover my face with a light layer of hair conditioner. It creates less drag too.
Quality: The fit and finish of the razor is excellent. I found no nicks, scratches, or poorly fitted parts.
Power Button Location: Some of my previous Norelco razors had the on/off button located right where your thumb grips the razor. While it was convenient, it meant that I sometimes accidentally turned the razor off when shaving. The power button on this razor has been moved a little lower on the housing. The location is not quite as convenient, but I’ve yet to turn the power off by accident.
Day to Day Cleaning: For day to day cleaning, just flip open the top and hold the underside of the shaving head under hot running tap water (it's normal for water to drip from the bottom of the razor after rinsing).
More Extensive Cleaning: Facial oil and hair (especially longer hair), will eventually accumulate in the blades and slotted combs that aren’t removed entirely by rinsing under hot water. Extensive cleaning requires that you remove the blades and combs from the shaving head. Norelco's previous design made reassembly of these parts a bit tricky. But the newer design of this razor makes the process much easier.
Here's my cleaning process: Word to the wise. If you're going to do this in the bathroom, close the stopper in your sink. If you accidentally drop a blade or a comb in the sink, there’s a good chance it’ll fall down the drain, and you’ll have to disassemble your plumbing to retrieve the parts. 1. Flip open the top. There's a knob in the center of the retainer that holds the blades/combs in place. Twist the knob slightly and lift the retainer out. Note: Before continuing, it's important to remember that the blades and combs are matched sets. Do not mix different blades with different combs. 2. Remove the blades and combs from the shaving head. Soak them in some isopropyl alcohol for a couple of minutes. 3. Use a soft toothbrush to gently brush away any hair on the blades and combs. 4. When the blades and combs are clean, place each blade back in its matching comb, then place the combs back in the shaving head (it doesn't matter which comb goes where). 5. Set the retainer in place, and give the knob a slight twist to lock it in position (you can feel it lock in place). Note: If you can’t easily lock the retainer in place, or you’re having difficulty closing the shaving head, it most likely means that the retainer isn’t positioned and/or locked properly. I've used this cleaning method for decades, and it's worked well for me.
Note: Some of Norelco's more expensive razors include a solvent-based cleaning system. I've used it, and I personally think it's not worth the extra cost.
Charging Stand: This razor includes a charging stand. But I don’t like using them. When my razor needs to be charged, I simply plug the charging cord directly into the razor.
Warranty: A two-year limited warranty is included. But understand that the warranty doesn't cover worn out blades. In addition, Philips Norelco offers a forty-five (45) day money back guarantee if you’re not happy with the razor (see owner’s manual for details).
Dislikes: I have three complaints about this shaver:
1. If you run out of juice before you're through shaving, you can't finish your shave by plugging it into a wall outlet (the included power cord is for charging the battery only). However, I find that if I charge the battery for just five minutes, it gives me enough of a charge to finish shaving. Pay attention to the orange flashing light on the body of the razor. It tells you that you’ve got less than five minutes of shaving time remaining.
2. It wasn’t made in America. Sorry, but no American manufacturing jobs were created when you purchase this razor. I'd willingly pay more to see "Made in USA" on this shaver, but I know I'm in the minority. This razor was designed in the Netherlands and was made in Indonesia. All of my previous Norelco razors were made in the Netherlands.
3. The pop-up trimmer is junk. Buy yourself a dedicated trimmer for your beard, mustache, and sideburns.
My Review: I did not receive a free razor, any compensation, or any other free items from Norelco or Amazon for my review. My opinions are my own.
This is the first shaver of the old Norelco style I have used and I am really pleased with the engineering and the effectiveness of this modern version.
