Need to go over and over and over again!

Eventually, it will clean you up, but it really doesn't trim my mustache very well. My old one I replaced because the blade was wearing still trims better than this one. I wish I could get my money back.
Cons: very poor at trimming a mustache.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It's not a competition for you know...
Morr of a beard remover than a shaver.
And not a smooth shave.
It left a lot of cuts and scrapes and I spent 20 minutes shaving cause the instructions stated to move slow and long strokes.

I loved how easy it was to use. After only a couple uses, the blade seemed to be dull already. Replacement blades are too expensive for the short life. Unfortunately, it will probably just sit in the drawer.
Pros: easy to use
Cons: blade life too short
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this shaver about a month ago and have used it regularly. First let me say that no 'clipper' style trimmer is going to cut as close as a blade. This comes as close as reasonable possible. I handles well and I like that it is water proof. It is easy on your face, with out the irritation some electric shavers can give you. Were it could have been better is to have a lithium battery instead of nicad. That almost guarantees it will hold less and less of a charge over time. Phillips should not have went cheap here. Two or three extra dollars would have been worth it. Lastly, the replacement heads aren't cheap, but so far seem to last. Great prep for a manual or electric shave or if you don't mind a little stubble. Of course the grooming attachments work well.
Pros: comfortable easy to use., compact nice for travel.
Cons: battery type is a concern for long durability., replacement blade cost and availability
I would recommend this to a friend!

Look Elsewhere

I have had this product roughly three months now, and I have tried to give it every opportunity to meet expectations.
On my first use, I attempted to trim my beard using one of the combs. The comb failed to prevent the blade from trimming too closely, and I had to shave my entire beard because there was a strip missing in the middle of my cheek.
I have since used the product weekly to shave around my beard. The results have continued to be poor. The blade is inconsistent on removing hair. Even long, slow strokes against the grain leave patches and missed hairs aplenty. I am left with highly irritated skin after having to make so many passes over my skin just to get a presentable look. The blade is supposed to last 3-4 months, but I do not see that happening even with only being used once a week.
I recommend looking elsewhere if you need a product to use regularly on grooming any type of facial hair.
Pros: rechargeable battery
Cons: poor consistency
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The Combs fall off after a few uses and therefore make the product useless.
Cons: combs fall off.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This thing is great for the peach fuzz on your moms upper lip, other than that you might as well give it to your girlfriend with no blade.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from philips.comBy Philips Consumer Care, February 19, 2020
Hi there. We are sorry to hear that the OneBlade did not meet your expectations. We can imagine this is disappointing. The OneBlade is designed to be an all-round tool for shaving, trimming, and styling your face. Because of this, it does not shave as close as a traditional blade. We hope that this clarifies it a bit. Should you have any questions, you can reach out on our social media: Twitter (@PhilipsCare) and Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/philips). We appreciate you taking the time to give us this feedback.
