I received a free sample of these blade refills in exchange for my honest review. I normally wear a few days of scruff, and I use an electric shaver to maintain the length (using a 1mm wedge) and clean up around it. Overall, these blades worked very well for the cleaning up part--they are very good at catching stray hairs on my cheeks, and shaving my neck below the beard--but they are not as good at trimming the length of my facial hair using the OneBlade wedges. So, my ideal use for the OneBlade and the replacement blades is as a travel shaver if I`m going to be out of town for a few days.
As replacement blades, these are really easy to swap out, and a new blade feels amazingly smooth against the skin. They also come with a wear indicator feature, which I believe is new. Honestly, the packaging doesn`t clearly explain how it works. I had to look on the Philips website to see that the blade actually turns green, like in the picture.
Pros: easy to change blades, new blade feels sooo much better than old
Cons: not great at trimming beard length
I would recommend this to a friend!

Such a disappointment! Blade breaks so incredibly easy!

Seemed a great product when I first saw it. Worked well...until I dropped it in my sink. A less than a foot drop broke the blade carriage (where it connects to the handle).
I need to line my bathroom with pillows and feathers when I use the OneBlade, as you must handle it as you would nitroglycerin.
Such a poor design with the blade.
Such a disappointment.
Cons: blade design sucks, see comment to the left about crappy design, the blade design still stinks, i feel like i wasted my money, see all previous comments
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I recently sent a review, however what I did forget to mention is What the most important thing, you need to print instructions On how to easily open carton without losing your fingers!! It took me around 30min or so just to open package, and yes I did get cut from the hard plastic packaging! There has to be an easy way to open this, I hope the answer is yes.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Solid Product

I received these replacement blades for free in exchange for writing this review.
These blades work well for the intended function. The replacement is very easy, taking less than a couple seconds. The blades cut well and can reach many places a regular blade cannot. My only concern is that the blades do not cut as well as a regular blade. I find myself going over some sections of my face several times. To get the best shave you need to go very slow to get the right cut. Overall, I really enjoy these blades and use them at least once every couple days.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I think my husband and I have bought every make and model on the market until I came across this..i figured what the heck hes tried everything else...he LOVES it!!! He loves the close shave, no bumps, doesn't pull..I need to get one for myself. Philips please make a ladies color, dont change the design or anything just add different colors. The only thing he has complained about is the blade is fragile

Perfect pack size for extra set of blades!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are pretty good for an extra set of blades. I believe they will last pretty long depending on the trimming needs and frequency. I’m still using the one that originally cane with the trimmer and I could see it last me for another couple of months. Yet another great product by Philips!

My husband had a stroke. He kept asking me to shave him. We tried a lot of things. Saw the ad on tv and both agreed to try it. Now I can shave him close enough to make him happy.
Pros: ordering the heads online
I would recommend this to a friend!

Wonderful new design, smooth and effective.

I received free samples of the Philips OneBlade 3pk replacement blades to review and very much enjoyed the product. It was about time I got more blades so it was good timing that this review came in. The new blades work smoother and better than the one that comes with the original product. Great new design for less.
