You can use the zoom wheel to select and lock in the length you want, from 0.4mm all the way to 7mm, with precision 0.2mm steps in between. It features a 'lift and trim' system, which raises hairs into the optimal position so the double-sharpened blades can effortlessly slice through them for an easy, even finish. When placed on its shortest setting, the Philips Laser-Guided Beard Trimmer Series 9000 does a good job of slicing facial fuzz down to an even perma-stubble. (Image credit: Philips) Philips Laser-Guided Beard Trimmer Series 9000 review: Performance Most trimmers use a dial placed right where your thumb goes while you're holding it, but this one is out of your way, so you don’t accidentally change the length setting, mid-trim. The slightly weird faux-LED screen that shows the selected length is also unusually easy to read. The battery on mine did eventually die, but it still works when plugged in – a feature which not all beard trimmers have.Īlthough it was marketed as being 'that beard trimmer with a laser in it', the best part about the design for me is the ‘thumb wheel’ which adjusts the height of the cutting blades. Power comes from a rechargeable battery, which can be topped up with a cable for ease of use and quick charging when travelling. Whether that's true or not, you seem to get a precise, even cut, time after time. That means they’re made to last a very long time (ours never noticeably blunted during our 5-year use of them) and cut through even thicker hairs. Apparently, as you trim, they sharpen themselves by lightly brushing against each other. The full metal stainless steel blades are extra strong and double-sharpened.
