Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Sometimes progress sucks
The Norelco T-980 price was not much more than the cost of replacing the battery in my 10-year old Norelco Maverick T-3000 and I was excited about the addition of a vacuum feature. Be careful what you wish for! The vacuum does its job and sink cleanup is definitely faster. But the vacuum feature tends to obscure your view of the blade edge making it much trickier to aim the thing at your beard's edge while looking in the mirror. The vacuum must be emptied by using thumb pleasure to disengage one ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent trimmer.
This product is excellent. I have been using this since a long time. The vaccum feature sucks all the cut hair and is easy to wash, charge and carry in the provided pouch.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent choice
As some reviewers had expressed reservations I took a flyer on the many positive reviews. I have not been disappointed! The trimmer served my needs on my beard and also my mustache. Several reviewers criticized their inability to trim their mustache. I have found no problems with the basic trimmer without the attachment. I have found the supposed mustache trimmer not worth the effort to put it on the unit. The turbo speed does indeed do its job.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One of the Best Beard Trimmers
Having worn a beard for appx. 30 years, I've used a lot of trimmers, at a lot of settings. My beard has gone from 3-inch length to 1/4 inch length, rough tracing my own growth from a 20-something college kid to an AARP neophyte. By far, this is the best trimmer, I've used. Love the length settings--for the first time, I have a length setting that doesn't fall between the length I desire. Also, you can't beat the hair catcher. Makes sink clean-up a cinch. Haven't found a use for the turbo setting ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not as good as its predeccesor.
My old T965's battery gave up after 4 faithful years of service. The problems with the new T980 are: the new body is a hard slick plastic which is more difficult to grip (slips out of the hand); the small/fine trimmer is now an attachment. That means you've got this small trimmer head that you have to keep in the medicine cabinet or when you travel in a safe place where you won't lose it; the depth indicator is hard to read and the numbers aren't always centered in the tiny viewing window. Philips ... Read More
