So far I like everything about this head shaver. No fuss no muss as they say. Easy to use, to keep clean and maintain. The cordless feature is great and the unit holds a charge as per stated. The best feature in my opinion is that it collects all the hair whether using it dry or wet requiring no clean up of the sink, counters etc.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It doesn’t cut close at all! I have to use a disposable razor to get a good shave! Waste of money!

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re really sorry to hear that the shaver isn’t giving you a close shave and that you’re needing to use a disposable razor afterward, that’s definitely not the experience we want for you.
We’d be happy to look into this further and help find the best solution for you. Please feel free to reach out to us on Facebook/Instagram (@Philips) or X (@PhilipsCare). If you prefer, you can also contact us directly through our support page:

La qualité est la, par contre a mon avis le moteur devrait être plus fort et les lames tourner plus vite. Ça éviterait de devoir repasser plus souvent au même endroit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love it. I could have gone with the less expensive model because I read they give the same quality shave but I usually go for the top of the line when I buy. The longer battery life isn’t something I’ll ever need but I have it just in case. I am very meticulous when it comes to cleaning after every shave. I found that using the submerged in water method only works if you first tap the cage of blades to get the bulk of the hair out first. Even then the individual heads can still have residual hair after the water dip unless you clean each head a screen individually. It’s a lot of work but it’s worth it.
Great razor. Worth every penny.

Excellent shaver
on February 21, 2026
Posted by: Loving Bald
Have been using this for almost a week now, and I really like using it. It replaced another brand I was using and was having issues with replacement blades. Very good shave, very happy with the closeness and easy to clean daily. In fact, there is hardly any hair in the collection area (and I shave my head every day) when I'm done. It is a quiet shave; unlike the other brand I used. Highly recommend this if you're on the fence.
The first 2 days I used it; I did a dry shave and was happy with the results. Then I bought some Lectric Shave and even better results. I have used shaving oil on my head in the past and it always gunks up the blades. This is a much better alternative. But even without it, it gives a great shave.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Philips Norelco Head Pro Shaver
on February 16, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Philips Norelco head shaver is a beast. It’s fast, smooth, and gets right down to the skin without pulling or irritation. The 5-head design covers a lot of ground, so I’m done in minutes , and the Wet & Dry feature makes it easy to use in the shower or at the sink. Battery life is solid, it feels sturdy in the hand, and cleanup is quick.if you want a clean, no-nonsense shave, this thing delivers.
