Comparison Philips Series 3000X X3002/00 vs Philips Series 1000 S1142/00

— Dry. Dry shaving is suitable for shavers specifically designed for use on dry skin, excluding the application of creams, foams, or similar products. It's important to recognize that these models might have moisture-resistant qualities and tolerate water washes (as described below), but these features don't imply compatibility with wet shaving.

— Wet/dry. Shavers that can shave not only "dry", but also on wet skin, which is applied with foam or other shaving agent. Wet shaving is considered more gentle and is well suited for people with sensitive skin. However, such shavers are much more expensive than “dry” ones — after all, the shaving head must have certain features (so as not to clog with foam and not smear it instead of shaving hairs).

— Built-in trimmer. Device for trimming the contours of facial hair. A trimmer is similar to a clipper, but smaller and better suited for fine work. Located directly on the body of the device.

— Blade for hair cutting. Removable version of the trimmer (read more about the trimmer above), made in the form of a replaceable nozzle and is installed instead of the main nozzle with shaving heads. Thanks to this, the trimmer can be made wider than the built-in trimmer, and overall more efficient.

— Nozzle for ears and nose. The cylindrical nozzle of small diameter allows you to penetrate the inlet and ear and remove unwanted vegetation from there. It is installed mainly on top of the main nozzle.

— Universal comb. Such a nozzle can be useful for regular care of the stubble or beard, when you need to trim, shorten, and not just shave. Length adjustment allows you to select the desired value for a particular area or depending on the image and type of "hairstyle".

The number of cutting movements made by shaver blades per minute. Determines the number of hairs that the device can cut in a given amount of time. The higher the number of cuts, the more efficient and faster the shaving process.

Charging time for the electric shaver battery from a fully discharged state to 100% charge. If freedom of movement when shaving is most important to you in a cordless shaver, and you always have access to the power supply (for example, you rarely travel), this parameter does not matter much. However, if you often travel on trips in which you have to constantly move from place to place, you should pay attention to models with a short charging time.

Electric shavers with USB charging are aimed at improving the comfort not so much in the operation of the device as in its maintenance. This function allows you to recharge the battery both from the outlet and from the USB port of a laptop or power bank. That's just the connector you need the appropriate one.

The ability to switch the voltage for which the shaver is designed, adjusting it to the characteristics of various electrical networks. This feature is useful for those who often travel abroad: in different countries, the voltage in the outlet can also be different. For example, in Europe and most Asian countries, 230 V networks are used, but in North America the voltage is 110 V.

In the simplest models with this function, the voltage is switched manually, more advanced shavers have an automatic network adjustment system.
