Philips’ most advanced air fryer is also its biggest — and right now, it’s the cheapest it’s ever been in Australia. The Philips 7000 Series Airfryer Combi XXXL Connected is clearing out at $349–$350 — though the $349 listings at Harvey Norman and Joyce Mayne are now showing out of stock, leaving Myer’s $350 as the remaining buyable listing — down from its $599 RRP. That’s Philips’ 8.3L steam-combi flagship, with 22 cooking functions, app-guided cooking and a built-in food thermometer, selling for less than mid-range dual-basket fryers.
A note on the name before we go further: you won’t find a “Philips 7000 Series Airfryer XL (2026)” with a steam window for $549 anywhere in Australia — no such product is sold here. The Australian 7000 Series line is the Combi XXXL family (models HD9875/90, HD9876/90 and HD9880/90). This article covers the real one, at real Australian prices.
Quick verdict
At $349, the Combi XXXL is a genuinely great buy. It’s Philips’ largest single-basket air fryer — 8.3L, enough for 7+ people — with steam-combi cooking modes, 80+ auto-cook programs, app connectivity and (on the HD9880/90) an integrated food thermometer. At clearance pricing it undercuts machines with half the features. The honest caveats: it’s enormous (9.4kg, 44cm deep) with no viewing window, and at the full $599 RRP the value case was far weaker. Clearance stock won’t be restocked — once these listings are gone, they’re gone.
Philips 7000 Series Combi XXXL: Australian price and where to buy cheapest
Here’s the current price picture (checked 8 October 2026):
$350 — Myer — HD9875/90, clearance (was $599, save 41%).
$349 — Harvey Norman — HD9876/90, clearance listing (showing out of stock as of 8 October 2026).
$349 — Joyce Mayne — HD9876/90 (showing out of stock as of 8 October 2026).
$599 — original RRP, the price it launched at in Australia.
Clearance stock at $349 is drying up — Harvey Norman and Joyce Mayne both show out of stock; Myer has the HD9875/90 at $350 (was $599). At time of writing, Myer’s is the only one of the three listings still buyable, so if you want the Combi XXXL, don’t wait for the $349 listings to come back — clearance stock won’t be restocked.
Philips’ own Australian store lists the range (free delivery over $150, 2-year warranty) but the sharpest prices are the clearance listings above. One warning: clearance means exactly that — retailers are running down stock and won’t reorder. If the $349 listings disappear, the deal is over, so confirm the price and stock before checkout.
Philips 7000 Series Combi XXXL: key features and specs
- Capacity: 8.3L (2kg of fries) — Philips’ largest single-basket air fryer, feeds 7+ people
- 22-in-1 cooking functions: Fry, Grill, Roast, Bake, Braise, Slow-Cook, Sous-Vide, Toast, Dehydrate, Defrost, Reheat, Keep Warm — plus steam-combi modes (Combi Bake, Combi Roast, Combi Grill)
- Rapid CombiAir Technology: starfish-designed basket with dual dynamic airflow; Philips claims up to 99% less added fat, up to 40% faster cooking than a traditional oven and up to 70% energy saving
- 80+ Auto-Cook Programs: pick an ingredient and quantity, the air fryer sets time, temperature and airflow
- Integrated food thermometer: included on the HD9880/90 — cook meat and fish to exact doneness
- Connected: Wi-Fi with the HomeID app (10,000+ recipes, send-to-cooker, remote monitoring), Alexa voice control
- Power: 2200W, 220–240V, temperature range 40–200°C, timer up to 180 minutes
- Size and weight: 335 × 357 × 443mm, 9.4kg — a serious benchtop commitment
- Display: digital TFT with intuitive menu navigation
- Cleaning: dishwasher-safe parts, QuickClean design with full interior access
- Warranty: 2 years
The standout spec is the sheer breadth: no other air fryer sold in Australia packs 22 cooking functions, steam-combi modes, a food probe and app-guided cooking into one box. The trade-off is equally clear — at 9.4kg and 44cm deep, this is a permanent benchtop resident, and Philips’ own specs confirm there is no transparent lid or viewing window.
What makes the 7000 Series Combi different
Steam-combi cooking. The “Combi” in the name is the point: dedicated Combi Bake, Combi Roast and Combi Grill modes combine steam with hot air, so roasts stay juicy inside while crisping outside — plus standalone Sous-Vide, Slow-Cook and Braise for things an ordinary air fryer can’t do. It’s closer to a countertop combi oven than a basket fryer.
The brains. The 80+ auto-cook programs are genuinely useful: select “chicken breast” and a weight, and the machine handles time, temperature and airflow. The HomeID app adds guided recipes you can send straight to the cooker, and the HD9880/90’s integrated thermometer takes the guesswork out of proteins. This is the most “set and forget” air fryer Philips makes.
The scale. 8.3L in a single basket means a whole chicken, a family lasagne or two kilos of fries in one go — no batch cooking, no juggling drawers. For big families and batch cookers, nothing in Philips’ range touches it.
The honest downsides. No viewing window — you’ll open the basket to check progress like everyone else. It’s the heaviest air fryer in its class at 9.4kg. And the 22 functions, while real, include modes many owners will never touch; if you just want great chips, simpler machines do it for less.
The 7000 Series naming, explained
Philips’ Australian 7000 Series air fryer line has three variants of the same 8.3L Combi XXXL machine: the HD9875/90 and HD9876/90 (same core machine, no food thermometer), and the HD9880/90 (adds the integrated thermometer and a more modern TFT menu with favourites and cooking history). All three are 2200W, connected, and 22-in-1.
What you won’t find is a “Philips 7000 Series Airfryer XL” launched in 2026 with a steam window at $549 — we’ve checked Philips Australia and every major retailer, and no such model is sold here. If you see that name on an import or marketplace listing, it’s almost certainly a mislabelled overseas model (or the 5000 Series steam air fryer, which does have a viewing window — see below). Stick to the Combi XXXL model numbers above.
How it compares to rivals at Australian prices
At $349 clearance, the Combi XXXL competes in a very different price bracket than its $599 RRP suggests:
- Philips 5000 Series Steam Airfryer 7.2L — Philips’ own mid-range steam air fryer, and the one with the viewing window. Smaller capacity and fewer functions, but a newer design with the window the 7000 Series lacks. Our Philips 5000 Series Steam Airfryer Australian breakdown has the full comparison.
- Ninja DoubleStack XXXL 9.5L ($499 AU) — more raw capacity in a slimmer stacked tower, but no steam-combi modes, no app, no thermometer. Buy the Ninja for capacity-per-dollar and bench footprint; buy the Philips for cooking versatility. Our Ninja DoubleStack XXXL Australian breakdown covers it.
- Tefal Dual Easy Fry Flex 9L ($249 AU) — dual-zone flexibility and the best price of the three, but a fraction of the cooking functions and no steam. The value pick if you cook in zones rather than by program.
The pattern: at clearance the Combi XXXL is the most capable machine under $400 in Australia. Its rivals win on footprint (Ninja’s stacked tower), flexibility (Tefal’s convertible drawer) or the viewing window (Philips’ own 5000 Series) — but none match its function count, steam-combi modes or app guidance.
Who should buy it
Buy the Combi XXXL if: you cook for a crowd and want one machine that air fries, roasts, bakes, slow-cooks and sous-vides; you like guided, set-and-forget cooking (auto-cook programs + app + thermometer); or you want maximum capability per dollar — $349 for a 22-function steam-combi flagship is genuinely hard to beat.
Think twice if: bench space is tight (44cm deep, 9.4kg — measure first); you want a viewing window (look at the 5000 Series instead); you only air fry basics (simpler, cheaper machines do chips and nuggets just as well); or you’re seeing it at $599 — at full RRP, wait for the price to drop.
Final verdict
The Philips 7000 Series Airfryer Combi XXXL was always the most capable air fryer Philips sold in Australia — it just cost $599. At $349 clearance, the maths flips: you’re getting 8.3L of steam-combi cooking, 22 functions, 80+ auto-cook programs and app connectivity for less than most mid-range dual-basket fryers. It’s huge, windowless and overkill for basic air frying — but for big households who’ll use the combi modes, this is the standout air fryer deal in Australia right now. Buy the HD9880/90 if you can find it with the thermometer; otherwise any variant at $349 is the one to grab before clearance stock runs out. And if a window is a dealbreaker, our De’Longhi Eletta Ultra breakdown is worth a look for a different kind of kitchen upgrade.
Philips 7000 Series Combi XXXL: frequently asked questions
How much is the Philips 7000 Series Airfryer Combi XXXL in Australia?
As of 8 October 2026, the $349 clearance listings at Harvey Norman and Joyce Mayne both show out of stock — clearance stock is drying up. Myer still has the HD9875/90 at $350, down from the $599 RRP. Confirm price and stock before you buy.
What’s the difference between the HD9875/90, HD9876/90 and HD9880/90?
They’re variants of the same 8.3L Combi XXXL machine. The HD9880/90 adds an integrated food thermometer and a more modern TFT menu with favourites and cooking history. The HD9875/90 and HD9876/90 are the same core machine without the probe. All three are 2200W, Wi-Fi connected and 22-in-1.
Does the Philips 7000 Series Combi XXXL have steam cooking?
Yes. The “Combi” refers to steam-combination cooking: dedicated Combi Bake, Combi Roast and Combi Grill modes combine steam with hot air, alongside standalone Sous-Vide, Slow-Cook and Braise functions. It’s one of the few air fryers in Australia with genuine steam capability.
Is there a Philips 7000 Series Airfryer XL with a steam window for $549?
No — no such model is sold in Australia. We checked Philips Australia and every major retailer: the Australian 7000 Series line is the Combi XXXL family (HD9875/90, HD9876/90, HD9880/90), none of which has a viewing window. If you see that name on an import listing, it’s likely a mislabelled overseas model or the Philips 5000 Series steam air fryer, which does have a window.
Should I buy the 7000 Series Combi XXXL or the Philips 5000 Series steam air fryer?
Buy the 7000 Series Combi XXXL if you want maximum capability: 8.3L, 22 functions, steam-combi modes, auto-cook programs and app guidance — especially at $349 clearance. Buy the 5000 Series if you want a viewing window, a newer compact design and simpler steam air frying. For big families and batch cooking, the Combi XXXL is the stronger pick.
