A year of shaves
on July 13, 2018
Posted by: BrentG
Gender:Male
I recently received a pack of replacement blades and continue to be a huge fan of the oneBlade system. First off, I could have kept using my old blade and probably would still be happy. I keep a beard and only use the OneBlade every couple of days to do some lining around my neck. With that amount of usage, I've been going for months on my first blade. Upon being provided a sample in return for a review I thought - what the heck, I will try replacing the blade.
As well as the OneBlade was working months after starting with a single blade, it just worked that much better with a fresh blade. At the rate I'm going, that three pack may last me over a year and give me a quality / clean shave every time. I couldn't be happier with the system, and love not wasting my money on expensive blades and hurting my neck when I shave.
The cartridges are very easy to use, and I didn't bother with the instructions. There is an eject button on the oneblade which worked perfectly, I took a new blade out of the cartridge and snapped it on. I was done. I was curious to know if there was a suggested shelf-life so I read the instructions to see that the blades change color when it's time to replace - the blade I had been using for months had only started to change shade - was barely noticeable.
So in summary, for it's ease of use, quality, comfort, effectiveness and long shelf life this is by far my favorite shaving system.
Pros: price, quality, comfort, ease of use, effectiveness
Cons: they last so long may forget to replace blade
I would recommend this to a friend!

Exactly as Advertised

This 3-pk of replacement blades is nearly as simple as it gets. I have already been using the Philips OneBlade for a while and received these replacement blades for free in exchange for this honest review.
I regularly remove the blade on my OneBlade to clean some of the small hair that can tend to be stuck behind it. Installing one of these replacement blades is the exact same as reinstalling the original. Nothing new to fiddle with here. My old blade was doing just fine for trimming and truth be told I never really even considered needing to replace it.
After installing one of these replacement blades, I had mixed feelings. The new blade seemed to cut through the hair with a little more ease, but it was not by much and it very well could have been the placebo effect going on making me think it was doing better because I knew it was a new one. It definitely was not as remarkable a difference as I would have expected.
These replacement blades have a wear indicator strip on them that I am guessing when it completely fades away is when I am supposed to replace it, however, as I mentioned before, I was still using the original blade without any issues. I have not been using one of the new blades long enough for the wear indicator to start deteriorating, but I am thinking that it will tell me to replace the blade far sooner than I will feel is necessary. That makes me think about two things: First, unnecessary waste, and second, Phillips trying to make another buck, by having everyone replace their blades sooner than necessary.
The OneBlade razors are not like a typical shaving razor that is getting nicks in the blade as easily and risk cutting your face. In addition, if you are using a trimmer head as opposed to straight on the face, if there were any slight nicks on the blade you do not risk any chance of cutting your face since the blades are not actually touching you. Granted you would have a decreased quality of cut though.
Overall, I think the blades are exactly what they are advertised as, replacement blades. I would not expect any more or less than what you are currently experiencing with the original blade that came with the OneBlade set.
Pros: easy install
Cons: not any better than the original

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have found that a little shaving cream to lubricate my face and neck are most helpful when using the OneBlade razor. I have a very thick beard and even after using this particular Norelco razor, my face and neck still feel very rough.
I like that it shaves closely and does not cut my neck the way in which multiple blade cartridges do, but even the OneBlade system does not shave me close enough.

Pros: cost, ease of use, clean-up
Cons: not a very close shave

Wow

During my trial with these blades I was blown away by how they've improved. Now they have a color indicator for when the blade should be changed.
As an owner of the One Blade I am an advocate for this product and I will never not own it. My Barber ruined my haircut and I was only able to save it because I owned this product.
No updates on the negative side for me. Go forth and purchase!

Great!

After receiving this product for free to review, I've used the replacement blades and let me say I forgot how nice it is to have a fresh blade on something. The old one was still going strong, but having a nice fresh blade is great. I love the razor in general, and love the small convenience of everything, so having solid refill packs just means I can keep on using it!

Quick, easy, effective

I received a Philips Norelco OneBlade Trimmer over a year and a half ago and have been a big fan since the first time I used it. I have used it several times a week since then, sometimes with an attachment to keep my beard a reasonable length, and other times without one to get close like a shave without actually shaving. Through this time I haven`t had any complaints. I just recently found out you can get replacement blades and decided to swap out my old blade for a fresh one and give it a try. From my very first trim with the new blade, I soon learned I had fixed a problem I didn`t even know I had. Like I mentioned, I previously had no complaints with the OneBlade, but a fresh blade made my grooming even smoother than I ever remembered. Since swapping out the blade I haven`t had a single hair tug or snag as I`m buzzing and zero irritation. Changing the blade was simple, push a button to pop out the old blade and snap the new one in place, and I love that the blade changes color when it`s time to replace them again.I should mention that I was sent a free sample to use for this review but will definitely be purchasing my next replacement blade when it`s needed.

New life to a razor

I have been using a OneBlade for a couple of years for here and there touch-ups. I received a replacement 3pk of blades in exchange for writing my review.
The replacement blades bring my OneBlade back to new life. It is great that you can swap out the blades after a time period to return back to top performance.
As my prior reviews have stated it is a great wet / dry option to do quick touchups. I keep a beard and want to clean up my neckline and cheeks. For a quick job, this does a great job and now with the new blades is back to tip-top shape.
I should probably (and others) change the blades more than once every couple years, as continued use does wear down the blades. With new hope, the OneBlade is a continued item in my facial hair artillery.

Easy to use

I received this product as a free sample for a review.
They were really easy to install onto the shaver and really easy to remove. they were just as good if not better than the original blade. I would more than likely get this 3 pack at the store.
