Finding the right gift for Father\u2019s Day<\/a> is always tricky.<\/p>\n

After all, how many pairs of socks, wallets or bottles of cologne<\/a> can one man really need?<\/p>\n

This year, Philips may have just delivered the answer with the launch of its most advanced electric shaver to date<\/a>, the i9000 Prestige Ultra Wet & Dry Electric Shaver<\/a> with SkinIQ Pro, retailing for $1,399.<\/p>\n

The i9000 Prestige Ultra<\/a> has been designed for men who want a barbershop-quality shave<\/a> without the fuss.<\/p>\n

Its headline feature is the Triple Action Lift & Cut system<\/a>, which gently raises each hair before cutting it with microscopic precision of up to 0.08mm. That means day-long closeness even on the thickest beards, while still maintaining skin comfort.<\/a><\/p>\n

Philips has packed in plenty of smart technology<\/a>, too.<\/p>\n

Using SkinIQ Pro sensors, the shaver reads the density of your beard and automatically adjusts the cutting power to suit<\/a>, ensuring an effortless shave whether it is the first pass of the week or a three-day stubble situation.<\/p>\n

Five different shaving modes let you customise the experience<\/a> even further, while the Hydro SkinGlide<\/a> coating ensures the blades glide smoothly across your face.<\/p>\n

If you are someone who loves data and gadgets,<\/a> the i9000 Prestige Ultra also pairs with the Philips app.<\/p>\n

From there, you can track your shaving routine<\/a>, get real-time feedback on your technique and receive personalised skincare tips to keep your skin in top shape.<\/p>\n

Practical features are not forgotten. The compact 360-degree flexing head<\/a> adapts to every curve of your face, making tricky areas like the jawline and under the nose easier to handle.<\/a><\/p>\n

There is also a precision trimmer attachment for moustaches<\/a> and sideburns.<\/p>\n

For hygiene, the shaver kills 99.9 per cent<\/a> of bacteria and comes with a cleaning pod that is 10 times more effective<\/a> than rinsing with water.<\/p>\n

Battery life is another strong point. A full charge provides up to six weeks of shaves<\/a>, while a quick five-minute top-up is enough for a single session.<\/p>\n

The premium charging stand is sleek<\/a> enough to live on your bathroom counter without looking out of place.<\/p>\n

As with all high-end Philips products, durability is built in<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The i9000 Prestige Ultra comes with a seven-year warranty,<\/a> which is a reassuring sign for anyone hesitant about the $1,399 price tag<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With Father\u2019s Day right around the corner<\/a>, this release could not be better timed.<\/p>\n

It is a luxury gadget that blends practicality<\/a> with a touch of indulgence, giving dads across Australia the gift of a flawless shave<\/a> every day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Finding the right gift for Father\u2019s Day is always tricky.
