Product Description

Product Description

Explore the SensoTouch RQ1280cc and Discover Our Most Advanced Shaver Yet

Philips, committed to bringing simplicity to people's lives, announces the launch of its most advanced premium electric shaver to date - SensoTouch 3D. As a world leader in pioneering shaving technology, a superior design was created in response to consumer demands that show men care about how their shave feels, and expect not just an expertly close shave, but an advanced shaving experience that leaves the skin ultra smooth and with minimal irritation.

Building on the 70 years of Philips heritage and expertise in developing new technology which has over the years completely transformed the consumer's experience of shaving, SensoTouch 3D is now the most advanced electric shaver. Its level of sophistication and efficacy is expected to create new visibility at a world-class, premium level.

Philips SensoTouch Shavers Ensure a Clean, Smooth Shave for a Flawless Look

Philips recognizes that for men who care about their looks, a great shave is at the foundation of a daily routine and gives them the confidence from which to express their personal style. SensoTouch 3D has therefore been specifically designed to effectively minimize skin irritation and give men a more comfortable shaving experience, making it easy to achieve a flawless look. When tested, 80 per cent of men agree that SensoTouch 3D is the most gentle shave on the skin **. (**Based on international tests of the SensoTouch 3D by Philips Application Research Centre with 195 men in Germany and USA, April 2010.)

Philips SensoTouch RQ1280cc 3D rechargeable electric shavers

For men who only want the very best, Philips SensoTouch RQ1280cc 3D shaver offers the ultimate shaving experience, following every curve of your neck and face. Its combination of revolutionary technology and high-performance design gives you accuracy in style. The SensoTouch 3D is the unique combination made for catching every hair in every contour to ensure you get a perfectly close shave, even on the neck.

At Philips we understand the importance of starting the day with a clean and smooth shave. Thanks to Philips shavers you can experience the great feeling of confidence and know you look your absolute best. Philips is all about using technology to make your life easier while never compromising on perfection.

Three Exceptional Features:

At the core of the new design and technology are three exceptional features that increase comfort and distinguish the shaver within the premium category; GyroFlex 3D, UltraTrack shaving heads and AquaTech.

(1) GyroFlex 3D - Soft Touch, Smooth Shave:

GyroFlex 3D is the distinctive three-dimensional component that allows the shaver to perfectly follow the unique contours of the face and adjusts seamlessly to every curve of the face. It ensures that minimum pressure is needed so that the shaver delivers a close shave that minimizes skin irritation. The GyroFlex 3D contour-following system adjusts easily to the curves of your face and neck, minimising pressure and irritation.

Philips SensoToucn RQ1280cc has been engineered to conquer every curve, hugging the skin without rubbing, but cutting the hairs close, whatever direction they are growing. The GyroFlex 3D system provides impeccable attention to detail. Every component has been engineered and designed with one purpose in mind: to deliver a great shaving experience.

(2) UltraTrack shaving heads:

The ultraTrack shaving heads with three specialized shaving tracks; (i)slots, (ii)channels and (iii)holes catch every single hair with just a few strokes. Philips RQ1280cc SensoTouch electric shaver with flex and pivoting action shaving head cares for your style and looks and is especially designed to shave even the shortest hairs. The ultra thin heads of Philips RQ1280cc electric shaver comes with slots to shave long hairs and unique micro holes designed to catch the shortest stubble to deliver a dual precision results.

(3) AquaTech inbuilt seal:

Aquatec is an inbuilt seal, which means that the shaver is 100% waterproof and the performance can be optimized when use with shaving gel or foam for enhanced skin comfort and minimizing skin irritation. It allows men the versatility to choose between a comfortable dry shave and a refreshing wet shave for those who prefer to use a gel. The wet and dry Aquatec seal gives you the choice of shaving both with a comfortable dry shave or with a refreshing wet shave using a shaving gel or foam for extra skin comfort.

Advised shaving method

Rotary shavers require a rotating movement to get a close shave, contrary to a blade, where a rotating movement is dangerous and a linear movement is the standard. When shaving the neck, look down to catch all hairs (again, this is quite dangerous with a blade).

Jet clean system--Clean and charge your shaver

Jet clean system cleans, dries and lubricates the shaver as it charges, ensuring consistent peak performance every day. Philips RQ1280cc electric shaver has got most advanced jet clean system with automatic cleaning program selection. Jet clean lubricates and maintains blades for ultimate performance. Jet clean is fully powered for quick charging of the shaver. Its active drying feature helps the shaver to quickly dry after cleaning.

Battery indicator

The Philips SensoTouch electric shaver has 5 level battery indicator, battery low indicator, charge indicator, travel lock.

Soft travel pouch for maximum convenience

Philips RQ1280cc SensoTouch electric shaver comes with a fine looking travel pouch that makes this product perfect for traveling. Take your shaver anywhere with you without the risk of damage. You can store the shaver in the pouch to protect it from damage while traveling.

Patented Super Lift and Cut technology

Philips SensoTouch RQ1280cc Shaver is equipped with dual blade system to give you ultra-close shave. Philips RQ1280cc Shaver's Super Lift and Cut System is designed to give you the closer yet secure shave as first blade lifts and second blade cuts for a comfortable below skin level. The advantage of having two-blade system is that you enjoy a comfortable and soothing shave. The super lift and cut system and reflex action system are combined in this shaver, offering superior closeness and contour-following. The dual-blade system of Philips SensoTouch shavers cut hair more efficiently. It means the shaver is able to cut the longest hairs and then the shortest stubble even on the neck.

SkinGlide

The low-friction SkinGlide shaving surface slides smoothly along your skin, for an extra-close cut. The close-fit swing mechanism allows the head section to tilt forward and back, allowing hair to be gripped firmly at the roots.

Precision trimmer--Tailor your looks to suit your style.

Skin-friendly precision trimmer is perfect for grooming sideburns and mustache and to give you a smarter and stylish look. Philip's patented tube trimmer technology ensures great precision and maneuverability of your Philips RQ1280cc shaver. Open the trimmer by pushing the slide downwards. The trimmer can be activated while the shaver is running. The shaver is designed with a slim handle and anti-slip grip. The shaver comes in a striking red colour with seamless foil finishing and an LED display. It also has travel lock for maximum comfort while traveling and daily use.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bye Bye Gillette! 26 July 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase
I've never been a fan of electric shavers as i feel they don't give a closer shave than a manual razor...until now that is. This shaver gives you a closer shave than a Gillette ProGlide Razor, but you will have to be patient to get results. If you've never shaved before using an electric shaver, then you need to use this for at least 3 weeks for your skin to get used to it. The first time i shaved (wet) with this shaver, it hurt like hell with blood all over my neck. I started using Nivea Extreme Comfort post-shave balm which helped with the irritation. Over the next few weeks, the irritation got less & less and now there is no irritation. The thing to bear in mind when using this shaver is to shave in a circular motion with VERY light pressure; if you press too hard, it will irritate your skin! I have also switched to dry shaving using Old Spice pre-electric shave lotion which really helps to give you a close shave.The Jet Clean system not only cleans the shaver but also lubricates it. I use this twice a week and it definitely keeps the shaver in tip-top condition.

Any downsides? Yes, from reading various reviews it seems that there is a major design bug in the sensotouch 3d series as there seems to be no overcharging protection built in the shaver. Its been widely reported that leaving the shaver on charge for extended periods of time 'fries' the battery and some people have reported having a dead battery after 6 months of use. I cannot confirm this as i'm unwilling to take the risk so i always unplug the charger from mains after the shaver is fully charged.

Finally i bought this from Amazon USA (Jet Clean version of 1280 wasn't available in UK at the time) and i only paid £230 including delivery & import taxes. Ordered on Friday and was delivered the following Tuesday all the way from Las Vegas to Inverness! Brilliant service as usual from Amazon.

5.0 out of 5 stars A new Experience 17 Nov 2011
By RJM
After reading all the reviews on Amazon and across the Internet I was a little sceptical as to whether the outlay for such an item would in fact be worth it, especially with the reviews highlighting some of the negative points. Enough to say I made up my mind and ordered the item from Amazon. It was delivered 2 days ahead of schedule and in good condition.

The item was well packed and pretty simple to setup and get working. The instruction book is aimed at making it easy for idiots, and therefore was highly confusing for everyone who does not fall into that category :).

The Shaver charged from zero to 60 minutes in no time at all. The charger then stopped charging the shaver which seems to contravene many of the reviews saying that the charger never stops. Whilst there is a charge the shaver shows the length of time it can be used. As soon as the charging has ended the display goes black.

As I have never used an electric shaver before I was a little reticent with using it due to the reviews that state how it takes many days or even weeks for the skin to get accustomed to the shaving technique. This was compounded as I have very sensitive skin and can come out in blotches with a wet shave razor, and only use sensitive shaving gel!

Having little patience I decided to try it out as soon as possible, not even bothering to use gel but purely dry shave. I followed the instructions, to the picture, using gentle circular motions and before I knew it I had easily shaved a days growth. The results were not as clean as a razor, although easily comparable to a new razor only used shaving in the direction of growth. So all in all a very good result. The most astounding detail is that I am still to have a reaction, after a number of days shaving dry, using the appropriate technique, I have not had an adverse reaction at all!! This really has positively surprised me.

The wet shave works very well and I am sure the cleaning procedure will be as nearly all the other reviews.

I just wanted to add a review that highlights some of the questions that are raised and how I have experienced the shaver first hand.

Is it worth the money? If you have the money definitely, although maybe I am not the best judge as I have no comparable knowledge of other electric shavers, but it compares very favourably to a new razor blade with ease.

I hope this review will help others with some of the doubts that I myself had.

5.0 out of 5 stars Top quality! 12 Aug 2011
By Max TOP 1000 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
The first thing I noticed while shaving with the SensoTouch was how comfortable it was against my face. Comparing it with my old Philishave (which cost half the price) it does not feel quite as harsh. The head is a little larger and does a much better job at removing stubborn hairs than the Philishave and in half the time I was finished. Most importantly I didn't get that horrible raw skin feeling on my neck that I did with my old shaver. To add to this the SensoTouch also has a pop up trimmer which is very good for sideburns or trimming facial hair and means you don't have to buy additional shaving devices.

Cleaning the SensoTouch is very easy. Click back the heads so they open out and then empty the cuttings and rinse under a tap. The device also comes with a small brush to thoroughly clean the heads.

I've never really been converted to these large shaver cleaning devices and the SensoTouch really hasn't converted me. They are large devices that I struggle to find space for and would never consider travelling with. However the SensoTouch's "Jet Clean System" does a very good job leaving the razor like new and does improve the shave. You get a large bottle of cleaning fluid in the box which you only use a little of within the device. However I just don't see myself using it regularly.

Along with the cleaner/charger you get a smaller travel charger. The SensoTouch has an electronic display on the front which tells you how many minutes you have left before it needs to be recharged (starting at 60 mins). This is a really nice feature and gives you more of a precise indication of when the shaver needs charged up.

Along with this you get a quality padded travel bag which will protect the shaver well.

The SensoTouch is a fairly large shaver but is comfortable to hold and manoeuvre. For three hundred pounds it's a big investment but definitely one you will keep for a long time as it does a very good job. Highly recommended.
