[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m sure there are better razors out there, but I have found this razor to be significantly better than any other Philips razor I’ve used\.
The biggest thing for me is how easily it handles a beard that has grown out to about 1/16 to 1/8 inch\. I’ve let my beard grow out several times to that length, and this shaver cuts right through it and leaves my skin incredibly smooth—almost baby\-smooth\. I’m genuinely impressed with how well it removes the hair without having to repeatedly go over the same areas\.
I also really like the app\. It helps me use the razor properly and effectively, and it’s useful for keeping track of when maintenance and blade replacement may be needed\.
The cleaning cartridges that came with the razor have also been very helpful\. I’ve found that I can make the cleaning solution last longer by brushing out the loose whiskers and trimmings from the shaver before putting it into the cleaning cartridge\. Then I let the cleaning system and app do the rest\.
Overall, this is an amazing product, and I’m extremely happy with it\. I hope Philips continues developing it and comes out with even more improvements and innovations\.
Thank you for making such a great product\!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fairly decent electric razor. Does not get as close a shave as they say but it’s not bad overall.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It works well, but I do have to be careful to angle it correctly, or else the head will pop open. It just took a little while to get used to it.

Excellent shaver, proprietary cable is a downer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Gives smooth shave with no skin irritation, easy to clean (just put it under the tap), and holds charge for the whole week+. The downsides are two - proprietary charging cable in this day and age really? That alone is one star off for me (what a pain - when travelling, carry one more cable and make sure you don't lose it). Just have a standard usb-c connector and be done with it. Secondly, you have to open the manual to figure out what different indicators/symbols mean. It's a shaver - all I need to know is its charge level. Everything else (including mostly useless app) add complexity and costs without much ROI.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don’t think it shaves as close as my older PHILLIPS. I DONT THINK I WOULD RECOMEND IT TO ANYONE. I HAVE MANY PHILLIPS SHAVERS OVER THE YEARS AND LIKED THEM WITH THE IMPROVMENTS THROUGH YEARS. but this one No Im 85 now and have at least 10 PHILLIPS shavers. But what can I do now?
