Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

This is an updated version of an old norelco rechargeable. The battery life is also great, as i can use it for about an hour on a single charge. The wet/dry feature is a plus.

The shave is close, it's comfy in the hands, cleans easily, and best of all i don't have to fuss with plugging it in. It is very smooth and never irritates the skin. Have been using norelco shavers for most of my shaving life.

The very best elect. Shave. This razor is extremely quiet, which i like.



Cons

When you lay it down on the counter, it always rolls over. After doing so it smells terribly of mildew the next time. My opinion is they have design-optimized themselves into a worthless and ineffective product.

Worked fine until about 2 1/2 years in and it just suddenly stopped working.

Price


It's a great price and easy to clean and maintain.


All in all, i think it is quite an affordable decent little shaver.


It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of some high-end electric shavers, but for the price, it offers excellent performance.

Competitiveness


Overall, i’ve found them superior to the other manufactures products i’ve tried.


However, the contemporary philips norelco models are not superior to the earlier generation in some fundamental ways.
