Very good product, particularly if you want a close beard trim.

I bought this to replace my old i-stubble, the old LCD screen and no battery indicator. The old one was brilliant at cutting, never had any cuts or tugs or anything and I owned it for over 3 years. I decided to upgrade however as the blades seemed to be a bit worn and the chrome was peeling off. This new shaver has a brilliant screen showing the battery life in the form of time you have left... I use this once every few days and so one charge can actually last me a whole month!! (70 minutes use per charge). The actual shaving is slightly worse, it will tug on hairs sometimes if you're a bit too eager but if you're careful and remove the clump of hairs from under its beak every minute or so you should be ok... The included brush helps with this. It does cut evenly though and perhaps closer than my last trimmer. If you are left red and spotty after wet shaving or sore after foil shaving, this is just what you need, especially if you go 5 days or so between shaves and need to trim the hedge before getting the foil out.

easy to use cuts great, hair and beard, fast charge, this is the second one i bought. keep the blade oiled.

Use for face and body great shaver

After being a satisfied owner of the i-Stubble+ for 4.5 years, the head broke, meaning I was in the market for a new stubble trimmer. Some research later, I decided to go with the shiny and upgraded, Super Stubble XTP. After a few months of use, I can say that it is everything that made its predecessor great and then some! It has a solid construction - that of which you would have come to expect of BaByliss - and a much improved design (I particularly love the battery timer display which shows how much time is remaining until the next recharge). It also feels somewhat lighter in comparison meaning that it is easier to hold for long periods without annoying wrist ache! The ability to now shave in the shower is an added bonus alongside being able to successfully clean the head in water (finally!). The shaving experience is the same, perhaps better than the i-Stubble+. I've had no trouble trimming on lengths between 0.4-0.8mm. In my experience, it is (and has always been) a little awkward to learn how to use BaByliss trimmers the first few times as you need to figure out which directions you need to hold it in order to cut the hairs. After a few uses however, you get the hang of it! In sum, I'm extremely pleased with my purchase and highly recommend to anyone searching for a solid all-round waterproof trimmer.

Awful, 2nd one broken with 6 months, do not purchase

First impressions are good. I've both previous models of this one (e.g. 7896U & 7895U) but because they have Ni-Mh batteries I fancied purchasing this one with Lithium Ion batteries. My first Ni-Mh unit is always flat on first use now prompting a charge before using. I am hoping this will not only provide longer service life but also better performance during cuts. It came locked and at about 65 minutes of charge. They state leaving on for three hours which seems a bit long since the full charge gets to 70 mins. The cut seems very smooth on the face. Much more smooth that the previous actually which was a pleasant surprise. I did notice this seems to cut very close on the 2mm level so I will need to compare with the previous model. The head seems almost identical save for a few changes such as different screws and some tabs helping you open the clipper comb. This model appears to cut much closer than the previous model though. You can actually see, when both set to 2mm this one has the blades protruding further out from the guide combe. Not sure if this is a fault or some strange quirk but I have to cut at least 1mm longer on this new model. I really like the display on this model. Much nicer. Apart from that and the battery this feels identical to the previous models. I am not a fan of the charging system. I can understand why they did it. They needed to make this unit water proof so had to omit the original charging port and opt for a docking solution. This is all very well but for travel you might need to take the dock as well now. You cannot charge straight from the mains adapter. For this I mark it down a star. Speaking of this, I cannot see how this is fully waterproof. Perhaps the odd splash but I wont be using this in the shower. There are too make gaps and crevices to assure full water tightness. Still they offer 3 year warranty so at least peace of mind there. The amount of adjustment is a bit over the top. Going down to 0.2 mm of adjustment - are people going to notice that? A point is also lost here because the spring allowing the trimmer head to pivot is also a bit notchy. Previous models of this unit pivot in a nice smooth action. This new one seems to have a pre-bent spring which means the head catches on this bend as it pivots. I can't understand why they changed this spring. The colour is so so, better than plain silver I guess. The trimmer is no more of less noisy that previous models. It sill comes with the little pot of oil as well which Babyliss have supplied for eons! So overall, a nice unit but I had to wait for a good price before purchasing! I will certainly keep hold of my previous 7896U!!
