Reviews of Philips RQ 1260CC Electric Shaver

Virtues

  • 1. Not afraid of water
  • 2. Quieter than net (although I thought it would be even quieter)
  • 3. Convenient in hand
  • 4. Good equipment (case, cleaning unit, etc.)
  • 5. Knives need to be changed less often than in the net
  • 6. The trimmer shaves the armpits well like net Brown, but unlike it does not cause irritation - I liked it!
  • 7. All the same, it’s probably a rotor to shave a bit faster than with a mesh, because of the larger area of ​​the knives.

disadvantages

  • 1. Shaving his neck with difficulty and irritation and still not clean
  • 2. It is impossible to shave the edge of the chin at all
  • 3. Because of the water resistance there is no possibility of working from the outlet. On Braun, after 5 years the battery died, I shaved from the outlet for a few more years. The Philips 1260 won't do that anymore. The razor is airtight - throw it away, or repair it, I don’t know how to change the battery.
  • 4. All these floating heads change the angles - more advertising move, in real life, on the contrary, do not give control over the razor.
  • 5. Trimmer on the grid is larger, it is very small and even shave the armpits without irritation - but that’s why it is slow and leaves the hair longer

Comment
I’ve shaved the Braun 7505 for about 8 years after which I decided to try the rotary from Philips 1260. And there is a lot of advertising for this Philips, and rightly so it is advertised, I suddenly thought about the revolution in shaving, and I’m still worried about the grid.

So impartially I compare the Brown mesh and this rotor from Philips:
1. Irritation of the Philips 1260, how not to twist it anymore, I changed my knives on my Braun, so there are sharp ones there and there. I have been shaving for a month now - from the temples to the bottom of the neck everything is completely red, if you do not burn with a lotion, and it itches about three hours. Although the grid of irritation I have almost never.
2. Conducted the test (several times): one side of the face was shaved with a brown, the other with a rotor. I wrote about irritation in paragraph 1, the grid - where I pressed a pair of red spots with force, the rotor for some reason, excuse me, the mug swelled up (why I can't understand it, while I shave it - it doesn’t cut it, it just doesn’t cut it). In terms of quality, the result is ambiguous - I basically always shaved with a brown brow, I thought Philips would be much better - but as the test showed, the result is almost the same, but the neck and chin edge of the mesh is much cleaner.
3. At the expense of all these 3D technologies (flexibility of the head) - this is where I feel. The grid is always clear where it will shave stronger - in the center, and the rotor with 3D always walks and where the maximum leaning against the skin is unknown at what time. As a result, everything suffers and shaves in different places in different ways.

Total: like a razor, beautiful, comfortable, and shaving well, you can learn and even cope with annoyance with grief in half (burn it with lotion). But to declare that 10 years old Brown shaves worse - it is impossible. He shaves with new knives in the same way, and his neck is generally much better. Do not believe armpits in the armpits; Braun shaved without any irritation at all, with a rotary Philips 1260, despite neatness, it was so hard that it was scratched for 24 hours.All that noticed all tried to tell in this review!

Virtues

  • Easy Good in the hand. Shaves clean.

disadvantages

  • Thick edge knives.

Comment
Deciding to change his net Panasonic, who is already 6 years old, ordered his wife this model as a gift for NG.
Well, what can I say? It shaves cleaner than I expected, but obviously longer than my old Panas. To avoid irritation, I advise you to shave without putting a strong effort on the razor. Due to this, it is necessary to pass each section many times.
As already mentioned, because of the thick plastic edges around the knives, it is really hard to shave the upper lip, but the main burden, in my opinion, is that you have to do this in front of the mirror. If I get the net for shaving almost blindly, then at the beginning I just walk across the largest possible area, and then I go to the mirror for final finishing.))
But, like a razor.

Virtues

  • 1. Wireless shaver, convenient when there are no wires.
  • 2. Knife design allows you to spend less time shaving
  • 3. Beautiful, quite comfortable in the hand
  • 4. Convenient to clean the shaver directly under the tap, without the need to use a brush
  • 5. Slightly less noisy than previous-generation Philips razors.
  • 6. Enough good quality shaving.
  • 7. The cleaning unit of the razor and the original liquid-lubricant should seem to extend the life of the knives and the razor as a whole.

disadvantages

  • 1. The biggest disadvantage of a razor - you can not shave well the area of ​​the upper lip under the nose. This is a design flaw of a razor - each of the three blades has a large plastic edge of a millimeter of 4-5 along the contour, which does not allow shaving the hairs under the nostrils. The contour of the razor rests on the nose, and the shaving surface does not reach these 4 millimeters. In cheap razors of previous generations of Philips, the razor heads did not have such large plastic buffers and made it possible to penetrate these places.
  • 2. The trimmer is very uncomfortable, small and shaves loosely. Whiskey is impossible to smooth perfectly. Rather, some kind of toy, not a trimmer.
  • 3. After 1.5 months of daily use began to creak and play a little body.
  • 4. The battery charge lasts for 10 days (1.5 weeks). I spend 5-6 minutes a day on shaving, no more. Those. In a two-week vacation, you have to drag the charging stand, because charging a razor is impossible without it.
  • 5. The cleaning system with the original fluid requires on-instructions to use it once a week. In this case, the fluid needs to be changed after 15 days, i.e. after the third time use. The bottle lasts exactly two refills, i.e. for a month of use. The cost of the bottle in the store 230-250 rubles.
  • Next comes the second jamb - the cleaning system with each use also fully charges the razor battery, whether you like it or not and thus the battery life is reduced.

Comment
In general, the razor is slightly better than previous generations of Philips, but the price does not live up to expectations.

Virtues

  • Excellent workmanship, rotors instead of nets, quiet operation, ease of operation, high-quality shaving, dry / wet shaving, Li-ion battery, waterproof case

disadvantages

  • The inconvenience of switching the power cord from the power supply to the washing unit. The need to use the original detergent.

Comment
At first I wanted to buy a Panasonic ES-LA93, because before that I had experience using a Philips shaver, which was not quite clean shaved in comparison with a machine. The experience of using Braun was also not very good, the nets often failed. As a result, having felt all razors in the store, I decided on Philips RQ1290. But having carefully studied and compared this RQ1290 with RQ1260, I came to the conclusion that it is not profitable to overpay from 3,000 to 5,000 rubles for the top model, since the technical data of RQ1260 are the same as for RQ1290. The only difference is the presence of the LED display, cover and gift wrapping. But having shaved this model of an electric razor, I made sure that it is not inferior to the machine at all and even for me shaves even clearer.No irritation, nice massage.

Virtues

  • Shaving is very clean, quiet, good battery.

disadvantages

  • Narrow trimmer, charging does not fit into the case, there is no slot for connecting the charger (you can only charge through a cradle, two complete - a camping and stationary with a cleaning function).

Comment
They gave me this wonderful device on NG in exchange for the still-living, but not very healthy Philishave 8894, which has served me faithfully since 2002. The razor was great, who is interested in asking Yandex, he will confirm.
So, about the new, first impression, when I took it in my hands - reliability and quality. It is done beautifully, for my taste, of course, high-quality plastic, the back of the non-slippery material - in the hand is very comfortable, light, again, compared to my old one. The battery was charged very quickly, despite the fact that it was completely discharged (the razor did not turn on). The absence of a digital indication of the battery charge in minutes seemed unusual, but this is a matter of habit, and there is also an indicator in the form of stripes and this is not the most important thing in a razor. Much more important how she shaves. And she shaves, I tell you ...
If earlier it took me 5-7 minutes to shave, according to the shaver indicator, now it's 2-3! Shaves perfectly, and most importantly, after it there is no irritation at all. After shaving asks you to wash yourself, which is done quite comfortably and simply.
For several days of use (and you have to shave every day) only positive emotions, I enjoy the process, and the battery, by the way, did not show even the slightest sign of fatigue.
It seems to me a worthwhile thing!

Virtues

  • There are not many advantages ... but they are, and many have already been described!
  • Design, quality, battery.

disadvantages

  • There is nothing to compare, so I can not identify the shortcomings of this particular model!

Comment
Now in general.
The shave increased from 1 minute with an ordinary Machine to 5-7 m subject.
You need somewhere to sit at the table or sofa and shave doing your own business, then go to the mirror and finish everything completely! Only this way. Actually, this is a big plus Electro razors. No need to go special in the bath in order to shave.
The first months and a half or two, after shaving the neck was all red, sometimes it was even possible to cut oneself. Now it's the other way around (when sometimes I shave a blade, then redness appears from it.
The razor is committed not sharpened in this place. It is necessary to carry out several times in the same place, from here and irritation. With foam, of course, this plan is easier, but there it is constantly necessary to apply it.
A few hairs have to be shaved for a long time ... well, as you can see in many electric razors.
It has also been said about the top of the lip that is how it is. You need a lot of contrivance to clean everything up there. Honestly, it does not cost its money, but maybe some kind of high technology and all that, but I really don’t get pleasure from using it directly. Only began to spend more time shaving!
When I bought it over the hill, the price is much less than ours, and I would not have bought it for life, for the money that they sell from us!
Of course, there are positive aspects of the electric razors, and it is the simplicity and ease of use that is why it was bought.
What would shave Do not need a sink and water. Not replaceable thing on trips.
Here are the main points for buying an electric razor.
In general, my opinion is divided, razor good, but not for everybody.
