Thanks to its new design, the shaver fits more comfortably in your hand, while new features make it easier to clean.
		Flex Tracker System The unique Flex Tracker System closely follows the contours of your face, giving you a smooth and perfect shave. The flexing action ensures that the blades are aligned with your skin to allow hairs to be cut exceptionally closer to the skin. Thus you can enjoy a remarkably smooth and fresh look.
Glide Rings The shaving heads have unique Glide Rings to help the shaver move smoothly over your face.
		Integrated Cartridge Refill System You can Simply pump the Nivea for Men shaving conditioner from the refill can directly into the Cool Skin shaver. Philips Norelco HS8060 Nivea Moisturizing Shaving System gives you the advantage of saving you time and energy by not applying any moisturizer on your face prior to the shave. Just wet your face before you start shaving then press the shaving conditioner button until a sufficient amount of shaving conditioner has been released.

Super Lift & Cut System The Moisturizing Shaving System is equipped with a dual blade system to give you an ultra close shave.

Customer Reviews

Another great shaver from Norelco
Great new product form Norelco! I'm a long time Norelco user - started with Norelco Advantage 5 or 6 years ago, then had two different Cool Skin shavers, and now have been using the new 8060X for the past few weeks. I'm very happy with this razor and it's a step in the right direction from the previous models. It's smaller and more lightweight than its predecessors, it's easier to clean due to its open design, and not having to replace lotion cartridges every couple of weeks is a plus. I couldn't get as close of a shave with it at first, but as the manual says - some break-in is required, and now that I've used it for a few weeks - it's doing a great job and I couldn't be happier with it. Norelco Customer Service is also hard to beat - they stand behind their products and will go above and beyond to keep their customers happy.

Good overall quality but bad design
This is the third of Norelco's waterproof series that I have owned.
The overall quality is just as good as previous models and other Philips/Norelco products.
The shaver is constructed well and is lighter and more compact than previous models. Charging and battery life also seem to be very good.

The main problem I find with this new design is that the heads/razors are floating and not encased as previous models and most other shavers. When using this shaver in the shower this is not a problem. However, when you use this shaver outside of the shower, the lack of casing around the heads means that as you shave, all of the hair pieces fall from the shaver to the counter or wherever else you may be (I would not recommend using this shaver in the car unless you don't mind getting yourself and your car covered with hair pieces). To me this is a major oversight and design flaw.
In short, if you only plan to use this razor in the shower this is a good choice, but if you need to use the razor outside of the shower as well, you may want to choose something else.

Good replacement for my 7735X
I picked up this razor as a replacement for my 7735x because the battery finally lost its charge after over 2 years of daily use. I think the moisturizing system on an electric razor is pure genius and I hope Norelco contiues to improve the line. Anyway, the 8060x makes many improvements over the older line but further improvements can be made. First off, this razor is relatively compact over the 7XXX line. The blades sit atop the body making the razor smaller overall but leaves the blades vulnerable to damage during travel. The lotion dispensing is now electronically actuated vs. the manual pumping you have to do with the older line. One thing that irked me was that the lotion didn't always make it to the blade or skin surface. The lotion comes through two stems coming off of the body and then through a hole in the center of the top two blades. Theoretically, the lotion should just come out onto the blades and on to the skin but while shaving the lotion leaks out to the underside of the blade where it doesn't do a whole lot of good. Maybe if you dispensed the lotion while it wasn't pressed against your face but that would add time to your shave to do that every time you needed more lotion. On to the charging and refilling stand. This is a huge advancement over the previous model. The stand not only recharges the razor but automatically refills the razor with lotion! This is much more convenient than either running out of lotion mid-shave or being out of lotion because you forgot to replace the cartridge. The bottles are $10 for less than 3 oz. Kind of pricey if you ask me and I haven't checked what $10/3 oz. would equate to vs. the cartridges. The razor charges in no time. 90 mins for a full charge and it has a quick charge mode but I never seem to let it drain completely. The razor also comes with a travel charging stand for easy carrying. You'll have to carry a bottle of the lotion to refill it manually in this case. One last thing, you do get a trimmer attachment. Just pull the blade head off and snap the trimmer on and you're good to go. I recommend this razor despite the few gripes I have about it. Nothing's perfect but this is as good as you'll get if you want a razor that dispenses lotion.
