The shaver boasts a comfortable rubber grip to prevent slipping, and the blades can be replaced if they ever wear out. It offers a battery life of 50 minutes after just an hour’s charge. And if you’re in a hurry, a quick five-minute charge will give you enough power for a shave. The handy charge indicator keeps you updated on how much power remains, and its comprehensive coverage ensures an even, complete shave in just a few minutes.

One satisfied customer left a five-star review about the product, saying: “I am really happy with the performance and features of this product, it really gives me a nice close shave with no water.” Another fan of the shaver complimented its smooth operation: “Works really well for me, glides smoothly on the skin and does give me quite a close cut,” adding, “Obviously it’s better if using it regularly as it can snag on longer hairs but it’s well worth the money and there’s no tidying up afterwards either.” Other customers also share the praise, with one stating: “I can’t fault it really. Great value for money shaver and worth the investment.” Not everyone, however, was thrilled. One less impressed user mentioned: “It seems to take forever to shave with,” and another did not get the results they hoped for with a wet shave, commenting: “I have tried a wet shave but this gave poor results… I am hoping that the razor will improve when bedded in, otherwise a new different one will be on my Christmas list!” If the Philips Shaver Series 5000 doesn’t meet your grooming needs, you’ve got options. For example, the Braun shaver is currently a steal at Currys for £33.99 (discounted from £67.99), promising excellent value for your quid. Or, for those who prefer a classic shave, the Wilkinson Sword Hydro 3 Skin Protection Men’s Razor is available at Boots for a steal at £13.99 (reduced from £20). For tech-savvy shoppers looking for the crème de la crème of beard trimmers, Boots stocks the Series 9000 model at £89.99, undercutting Amazon’s asking price by a tidy sum. Or, if you’re still into the trusty Philips Shaver Series 5000, Amazon’s your go-to spot to nab one, reports Gloucestershire Live.
