Good battery life
on October 6, 2025
Posted by: arthurk1_2457
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is a very quiet device that has a good battery life. Never had a head shaver before this has changed my mine about them. Material feels durable and cleanup is very easy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This head shaver is fabulous. I’ve had a head trimmer for years and was always looking for a closer cut, which was difficult to achieve. With this Philips Shaver I. Now get the look I always wanted. Easy to use and maintain.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nice shaver, needs higher quality blades
on September 23, 2025
Posted by: tjm15_1474
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Build quality seems very good, quiet while using. Very easy to clean and swap blades and battery life is exceptional!
Hard zipper case is nice
No buzzer like other shavers
Blades did not seem as sharp as other shavers

Solid mid tier shaver!
on September 22, 2025
Posted by: pauli4_1556
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Here in the Norelco / Philips 7000 you have a mid-range rotary shaver. It gives you a comfortable, decently close shave. It sports great features like wet or dry use and a quick clean pod. The build of the unit also feels solid, and holds charge as advertised. I also own the Remington Balder Boss. See pics for comparisons. Out of the two, I can recommend the Rem if you want to spend more and have more features like the pop out trimmer and 5 blades or the 7000 if you want to a better value, the clean pod, and bigger grip at the tradeoff of 4 blades and no popout.

Pleasantly surprised
on September 19, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pleasantly surprised by this head shaver. Having used other brands and being left with a razor burned head I was a bit skeptical. However this one was very easy and smooth on my skin and did the job it needed to do. Very quiet operation and although it doesn't shave quite as close as a blade, it's definitely good enough. Think the day after feeling. Battery life seems decent, multiple shaves and still going. I would definitely recommend this to someone looking for an easier and quicker alternative to shaving with a blade. Oh and no nicks from the razor either!

Uneven shave that misses a lot
on September 18, 2025
Posted by: chrisj70_3843
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The battery life, usb-c charging port (rather than micro USB), ease of cleaning, size and portability, and the maneuverability, contour, and feel of the shaving head are all pros of this product. Unfortunately the "blades" do a pretty abysmal job of actually shaving. This razor leaves a choppy path of varying hair lengths no matter how many times you run over the same spot. I normally use the Manscaped head shaver and by comparison, using it takes about 10 mins and requires minor touch up from a razor. This product on the other hand, resulted in a hack job of all different hair lengths after 15 minutes where I gave up and used my regular shaver to clean up and get a good shave. I'm not sure what went wrong with this product. I tried to make it work two more times with the same result. I would not recommend this.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very quiet and quite precise! Solid battery life in my testing so far and does seem to be solid - doesn't feel cheap at all! Overall very good product!

Perfect for the head!
on September 17, 2025
Posted by: inrayssopinion_246
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It does a nice job but does not give you a smooth finish. It fits comfortably in my hand and feels comfortable on my head. I use it for my head and parts of my beard and have not had an issue. Battery life is great as I charged it once when I got it a month ago, and have yet to charge it again. Overall, I highly recommend!
