I have owned 3 Norelco razors prior to this one, none of them can compete with this model when it comes to shaving older or longer whiskers. Also very fast recharge on the battery.
Great shave wet or dry. Outstanding battery life. I will be returning it because am unable to complete the review. I don’t feel that I need to write an epistle
This razor shaves better than any other electric shaver I have had. The cleaning kit is a great addition
Pros: close shave
Cons: have to attach trimmer
I would recommend this to a friend!

Burned outw

The razor worked and cleaner worked great for a little over a year then both stopped working.. the razor sounds like it working but it doesn’t shave, you have to cut your beard down to 5oclock shadow for the razor to do any thing.. then there is the smart cleaner, the pump that bring the cleaning liquid up burned out.. we’ll back to blade razor..
This shaver is overpriced and takes forever to shave with. My 5 year old one is better.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We appreciate the feedback. In order to achieve the optimum shave and preserve your skin, there may have been some changes made. Nevertheless, we have some tips to retain a smooth, fast, and easy shave. Firstly, make sure to clean your face with warm water and a gentle exfoliator to help loosen the hair and prepare the clean for shaving. Also explore between dry and wet shaving as these may work differently or more efficiently depending on your skin and hair type. We also have a Groomtribe App that can help provide tips and support specfici to each of our shavers.

Hi Ceenie, thank you for leaving a review. We sorry to hear that you've found the use off your new shaver awkward compared to your old shaver. Using the right technique is key to making sure you’re getting the best results from your Philips shaver. Hairs do not always grow in a uniform direction and, for that reason, we recommend moving your shaver in circles while applying light pressure. This allows the blades to cut hairs growing in all different directions. Additionally, if you haven’t shaved for three days or longer, pre-trim the longer hairs with a beard trimmer to ensure a better result when using your Philips electric shaver. We hope this helps with the use of your shaver.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to get in touch via social media. We’re available 24/7 on Facebook and Twitter. Alternatively, you can reach out to us via the contact page on our website www.philips.com/support. One of our colleagues will then try their best to help you further. Hope to speak to you soon!
Kind regards,

Close shave but not too close

It gives you a decent looking quick shave. It's not going to be ultra smooth or anything, but it gets the basic job done. Makes you look like a quick airport-running-late-style shave. It has a lot of whine in the blades when running, but it's efficient and not that loud.
