    Does not shave as close as the older models. Speed of heads seem slow. Bought it for the cordless feature, but miss my older corded model. Average at best.

    It's ok, but kind of cheap. I wasn't really expecting fantastic craftsmanship at this price point, but even then it simply feels cheap.

    Didn’t work to well for me. I have a sensitive face and this made me break out. I’ve known other people who have used this product and love it. You did have to push pretty hard to get some of the hairs.

    Its an Average electric shaver. Takes several passes to cut most of the left over stubs. I had a 2017 Norelco model that was cheaper and was way more powerful than this one. Not what I was expecting.

    This is a very nice and elegant shaver machine, I really like the design and its features. The only complain that I have is that this machine scratches and irritates your skin, in some cases very bad. If you have sensitive skin please do not purchase this machine, Do no make the same mistake. If I can I will return it. But time passes by already.

      Hi Andy,​

      Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are sorry to hear that your shaver has caused irritation to your skin. In order to prevent this from happening, we advise you to only use gentle pressure. Also, in case of having a heavy beard, we recommend trimming it beforehand. Lastly, we would suggest using a shaving foam or a product of your preference to increase moisture.

    A cut like all the rest. Nothing special. Just cut cut cut cut cut away all the hairs not needed. When your done clean up is a simple as rinse dry and complete.

    This phillips Norelco shaver reminded me of my first Phillips electric shaver my father gave me on my 18th Birthday back in 1998, it was back when it was made out of metal and leather, came in a heavy black box and you needed to keep it plugged in when you shaved.it was a great gift that meant I was transitioning to an adult. today, 21 years later I got this shaver and my oh my, the difference is huge but the feeling is the same. this is an effective shaver that takes care of business and gives you a clean shave within a couple minutes, can be used more than 30 times before you have to charge it again. Pros: - Light Weight - ergonomic design with good gripping rubber if you are using it under water - fast charge with 3 led light indicators to let you know how much is left in the battery. - durable design. - the blades do have a give in them to run across the face without issue. - this this is not loud, In fact it is almost silent compared to other shavers. - the most important feature in my opinion is that this shaver doesnt leave mess over the sink because of its rotating blades, it sucks the hair behind the blades and into the small (bin) area within the plastic body. when you are done shaving, you can press the evect button to lift the blades up and just dump the hair into the sink and just rinse it and you are done. - which means you can shave on the go, in the car, and not worry about hair being all over your clothes. - you can use it in the shower, it is water proof, and you can use it with shaving cream and gel. - it comes with a small pouch for travel storage. - it works with any Phillips norelco charges since it uses the same charging power and the same type plug and charger. - the price is right. - the blades can be changed when they become dull (only time can tell). Cons: - NONE.

    I wasnt really that happy with this razor as the blades go dull very quickly and the battery doesnt last long plus even at a full charge its slow.

    Worst experience with a Norelco shaver.

    This was my fourth consecutive Norelco shaver. Right now I am trying to claim the 45-day money back guarantee because it does not work very well. It takes twice as long to shave with it as it did with the one before, and the result is worse. I would not recommend this model.

    Works well but not an especially strong motor or close shave. You have to go over your face a number of times to get a smooth shave.

    The razor does a reasonable job of shaving, but it's much louder than my old Norelco and the shave isn't as close.
