Do not bother ordering imitation blades online you would only be wasting your money. Nothing is as good as original.

I was skeptical of electric razors but this does the job getting to the difficult areas, I.E. under the chin, etc.
But would not wait more than 2 days to shave . Accompanied with a nice fitting case, and cleans with a minute or so rinse without doing any damage to heads.
And its a nice bonus, the razor came with a pack of free replacement heads.
The only negative so far is the plastic head cap broke off a bit.

Pros: easy to clean long use without charging., free bonus replacement heads, tackles difficult areas smoothly, not too noisy
Cons: plastic cap broke easily, can't wait more than 2 days between shaves

Fantastic Shave

Not sure what all the vitriol is about with some of the lower-rated reviews, but my experience is simple. These SH50 replacement heads give me a better experience than my old HQ8 blades did. My shaves seem a little smoother now with these new blades and shaving itself is definitely more comfortable. Maybe my original blades were defective. All I know is these new SH50 blades are better for me.
Pros: smoother shave more comfortable
Cons: none
I would recommend this to a friend!

Norelco shaving heads replacements are a must have for smoother shave. I like to order ahead so I am never without.
Pros: easy to use.
I would recommend this to a friend!

NOT compatible with s5880 Part 2

"Response from Philips" says this replacement head SH50 is compatible with s series.
I have philips S5880 and on the back of the razor says "REPLACE WITH SH71 HEADS".
SH50 head has a "ridge" on its cover and cannot be inserted to the s5880.

Hello,
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience with the shaving heads was not as pleasant as you expected. We strive to keep our customers happy by making improvements based on feedback like this. The reason the SH50/52 heads do not fit your shaver is because they fit only the Series 5000 that have rounded heads whilist your shaver has angular heads. The correct replacements for your shaver are indeed the ones that are written on the back of the handle the SH71/52.
If you have any additional questions, please get in touch via social media. We're available on Facebook (@Philips) and X (@PhilipsCare). Don't worry, if you don't use Social Media, you can also reach out to us via the contact page: https://www.usa.philips.com/c-w/support-home/support-contact-page
