The last one you will have purchase
on June 13, 2016
Posted by: AlexK
I received this product for free to test out.
This is truly a new innovation in the men`s personal care. This shaver is like no other that I have ever used. The best part was being able to use wet or dry and have little to no razor burn. That is a huge advantage right out of the package. The trimmer guides are kinda difficult to get on and off of the head of the shaver, but overall works well. I can have a full beard and go to a clean shave relatively quickly. The only improvement would be the removal and placement of the guides need to be much better designed for ease for anyone. Decent charge of the battery, getting multiple shaves out of a full charge. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Reasonably Priced and Adaptable Shaver

First of all I would like to note that I was given the Philips One Blade free of charge in return for an honest review. Here are my opinions on the product.
Pros: Well Designed and Versatile. I really like how smooth the products is. Very easy to grip when trimmings from all angles of your face or body. I really liked the fact that I could use this device to get some of the lose hairs around my neck. One thing I noticed is that I didn`t get razor bumps after using this product which was surprising. The One Blade didn`t grab and pull hairs like most shavers do. A big plus for this blade that it can be used wet and dry. Cleaning the blade is simple as running it under the tap. This product can also be used for edge ups too.
Cons: I didn`t like the fact that you couldn`t use the product while plugged into the electrical outlet. Charging time was way too long. My go to shaver fully charges in about 30 to 60 minutes. It requires charging for eight hours just to get 45 minutes of use. Those using it for their morning shave may manage to squeeze five day’s use from it. But for anyone using the One Blade for its intended purpose of trimming and styling facial hair, it is likely to manage only two shaves before you have to plug it in. The One Blade also doesn`t work well with longer or coarse hairs of a well formed beard either. Every 10 or 20 seconds the blade would stop working as the hair jammed the mechanism.
All in all I`m pretty satisfied with this product. If the battery life was improved, blade could cut longer hairs and charge time improved, this would be a top notch product. I would recommend this product to my friends and family. For the advertised price I believe this product is a steal.
Pros: well designed, versatile
Cons: short battery life, long charge time, doesn't handle longer hair well
I would recommend this to a friend!

My New Favorite Razor
on June 5, 2016

The OneBlade was given to me in exchange for an accurate review of the product.
I've used the OneBlade for just over two weeks now. Until I received this I did not know electric razors such as this exist. I have used a number of different electric razors over the years primarily because of convenience but I've never really been completely satisfied with any of them. None of them have done a great job particularly if I haven't shaved for 48 hours or more.
This razor is different. It is configured more like a traditional razor. What makes it really stand out is it really does a very good job of cutting longer hair. Whether I use it 24 hours after my last shave or 7 days after, it works just as well. It cuts shorter than most electric razors I've ever used. Not quite a smooth shave but very close.
I also like that it has a fairly small profile compared to other razors I've used which is nice for traveling and it doesn't take up much space on my bathroom vanity. It is rechargeable which is convenient for short business trips.
One other positive is that it doesn't irritate my skin at all like some razors can. It is very comfortable to use. It never feels like my skin is being pulled at.
The only potential negative I see is that the blade needs to be replaced periodically. I've used it for just over 2 weeks and it still functions great. If it lasts 4 months as their site suggests it will, I can live with that.
Overall, I am very happy this this razor. I have put away my other much more expensive electric razor in favor of this one.
Pros: cuts hair of any length, quick, doesn't irritate skin
Cons: bladdes will need to be replace periodically
I would recommend this to a friend!

This machine is the best shaving product in the world! Philips has outdone everybody out there!
Design is perfect for holding and makes you reach every part, even if you have a bony face.
Blade is comfortably smooth, and although I have sensitive skin that reacts to any blade, this one didn't leave a scratch or cause redness even on the adam's apple area, which used to be very problematic to me whenever shaving.
Fast - I fully shaved in less than 3 minutes, reached all the areas I usually shave but have trouble cleaning. This cleans every spot.

I high recommend Philips Norelco OneBlade. It's going to be my companion for years and years to come. I really do mean that because before this one, I've had Philips Norelco multigroom for over 3 years, and this product is great!

Fantastic product for all types of faces
on May 6, 2016

I have very sensitive skin. In fact, when I was in college, I developed keloids (scars that keep growing) on my face. As a result, I had to stop using traditional razors.
For the last 10+ years, I've been using a beard trimmer to shave. Needless to say, I was never able to get a close shave like you can with a traditional razor. Plus, the keloids made it very difficult to make sure all the hair was gone.
I am pleased to say that the One Blade has gone above and beyond what I was expecting. I got the closest shave I've had since college. Not only that, but it was fantastic for my keloids. I found that I could go directly over my keloids, and there was no pain at all. As a result, it took be about have the time to shave as with the trimmer, and like I said, the better results than I ever got from the trimmer.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This oneblade has potential

Really needs a 0.5 comb or setting for that true stubble shave. Between school, studying and working to pay for college I no time or want to shave daily.
So 0.5 setting gives me a quick even 2-day buzz. Ladies love it.
Returning this to store and will keep searching.

I give it a 10!

This blade is unlike anything that is in the market. Very sleek and easy to use. The OneBlade trims and edges effortlessly.
I recommend this for someone with sensitive skin who is looking for a blade they can trust wont cut them.
If your someone who likes to design your facial hair, this is your product. I wouldn't be surprised if we start seeing the barber shops using this.
Awesome product with great quality. Happy Cutting!

Excellent Shaver, good trimmer
on December 11, 2015
Posted by: Fruncle
Gender:Male
I have really enjoyed using this product. As a regular razor, it shaves close enough to begin the day. Not quite baby smooth but better than the 5 o'clock shadow. The performance is flawless, no lag in power causing pulling of hair like others I have used. The blade edges are straight and cut on both sides which can make it difficult to get in some of the smaller detailed areas around the mouth. Also, the larger the guard the harder it is to get under the nose for trimming. All in all however, this is a great option for probably many styles! I keep a short goat myself and it is the best I have used.
One a side note, I swore off electrics quite a long time ago due to skin sensitivity and razor burn. I have not been able to give myself razor burn with this shaver yet, even when shaving two days in a row which is something I would never get away with using a standard blade!
Pros: compact, lightweight, great for sensitive skin
Cons: could use blade option for detailed styling
I would recommend this to a friend!
