Haircuts Became Fewer
on November 20, 2022

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The One Blade Face w/360 Trim, Edge & Shave was initially only for touch-ups, in between my bi-weekly haircuts but then I realized my haircuts became every 3 weeks because of the performance. I have sensitive skin and sometimes getting bumps from my old manual razors keep me at the barber shop more. In the past, I had other shavers cutting my skin and the One Blade Face w/360 Trim, Edge & Shave doesn’t do that. The blade on the device is gentle where you only hear the buzzing sound, but you don't feel anything sharp hitting your skin. It’s powerful but won’t get you a bare shave like a razor blade will, but close. I would recommend the One Blade Face w/360 Trim, Edge & Shave also because of the battery life, especially since it's rechargeable.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not even 3 months and it stopped working, I just cant believe it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The one blade does an adequate job. I still have to use a blade to shave under the chin.

Plastic stubble heads break easily
on November 9, 2018
Posted by: RuinedBeard
My #3 stubble head broke shortly after I bought the one blade and keeps popping off when I shave. This morning I ruined my beard when it popped off and I shaved a chunk of my beard off to the skin. Thoroughly annoyed. Cannot find a replacement part. Buy at your own risk.

To expensive to continue using
on June 5, 2018
Posted by: twalkup17
Gender:Male
I do like it a an alternative to a standard electric shaver. However I have to shave pretty much every day, which means after 3-4 weeks it needs a new blade. It's just not worth the upkeep cost for me to continue using it any longer.
I was very excited when this shaver was given to me as a gift. However, after reading the very poor instructions, I tried using the shaver & got nicked. I gave it another two tries with similar results before giving up on it. I'm going back to a straight razor, it's safer.
Pros: none
Cons: bad instructions, poor design results in nicks & abrasions
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I need to return it
on March 27, 2020

I'm glad Philips sent me a survey on the OneBlade as I've been meaning to return it. I found it to be an ineffective a electric shaver. I ordered it so I can alternate it with my number 1 choice for shaving- a cartridge razor. I am motivated to get a regular electric shaver.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
