According to the principle "more is better" should the 3-shear blade head play against the old with one as an alternative to buying new shear blade.
The 8894 I wash has always been under hot running water for * any * Shaving and every 4 week I clean the Scherkof with the Philips broth in Reinigungsblubb.
The battery shows after every charge 130 min. Remaining time and I think that comes out in about.
The 8894 is completely sealed, it has never penetrated water.
RQ1050 / 1075: I have the version 1075 ordered with cleaning / charging cradle. This I did but so far not been used.
Charging is completed in about 45 min., Which I find afloat. For the battery lasts only about 1 hour.
I shave often, so you have a razor stubble to long work through 3-5 days, actually a job for razors, but the WG. Pimple formation fails.
In this discipline the RQ1050 failed miserably. The gear mechanism in the head simply for the three 3-shear blade heads not have enough strength. It rips and twinge and is not smooth right. Nope, that will not do. How long is this supposed to take it?
In addition, the unit is quite loud and the three fummligen mechanisms to open the shaving heads do not make the most stable impression. Especially because you have to empty several times during shaving.
For daily stubble the RQ1050 is average. Is better for less money.
But longer whiskers he can not. The very narrow trimmer can only be used when removing the device the complete head. Product designer should spendieren possibly NEN new head.
No trace of revolution. It seems to me the evolution level of 8894 appears to have been no longer be beaten.
Rubber, metal, high-quality plastics. Waterproof, very long battery life, quiet and thoroughly even after long beard.
Since then has been consistently placed on savings and a pretty Blender package. Too Bad.
The 8894 is (with new blades) accompany me probably even longer than it is fond of Philips.
A star for style, nothing else anywhere.
