Review (5/5): Good quality, consistent results
I bought this to replace a 5-6 year old similar version that finally gave out on me. The suction action on the old went out after 3 years of use but that may have had to do with a broken guard (my fault not Norelco's). Then the battery finally gave up a few months back.
I researched several alternatives but came back to the PN due to price and my experience with the previous version. The T980 does all I ask it to: I clip my goatee 2x per week and with this usage the battery lasts about a month. I haven't felt the need to use the turbo button so that might be contributing to the good battery life.
The clipper is a little loud but nothing out of the ordinary for a clipper in general. The consistency of the cut length is superb. If this clipper lasts as long as the previous one I'll probably go back to PN and buy whatever the current version is then too.
