Rated 4 out of 5 by from Easy to use but poor accessories. Used only once so far and found it gave a pretty good shave - but disappointed that there is no travel case or docking station for charging included.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Shaver head won’t stay on After I’d been using this shaver for about a year the shaver head would separate from the shaver body during shaving; this became more frequent and irritating as weeks went by and made it impossible to shave without holding the head and body together! Under the terms of the Warranty Philips replaced this shaver with a similar model but the same thing happened after about a year in use. Initially I found this shaver difficult to hold without accidentally pressing the on/off switch but I found a way to grip it so that I wasn’t accidentally pressing the switch, but that wasn’t comfortable. I’ve stopped using this shaver model and wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from I am surprised at its functionality. I used to have a Philips rotary shaver and changed it many years ago for a linear one. However, I found that the razor I had kept missing parts of my beard and leaving occasional long ones, which ere difficult to remove. I had seen a lot of new razors with rotating heads offset from the main shaver. After a lot of on line research I decided to buy a 5000 series shaver. At first I found it a different grip from the shaver I had been using for some 30 years, but soon got used to the recommended rotating action and the pistol type of grip. I was also concerned about the battery life, but it seems to be holding up the same as other razors and therefore is not a problem. I do not like th option to wash it under the tap, as it takes a long time to dry off and does not shave very well when wet. I have no desire to go to shaving with soap any more. It is a pity that it does not come with a brush for clearing out he heads and I had to buy a case in which to put it for travelling. I have not used the clearning facility yet as I have not had it for a month yet and I see no point in cleaning more frequently. This is based on experience with other shavers with a clearning function. I am pleased that it appears to give a closer shave than ony other razor I have had and does not leave any long hairs to have to tackle on an individual basis. Overall I am very pleased with it and trust it will last a long time. I have only given four stars because I have only been using it for three weeks, but the experience to date has been excellent, I hope it continues to please.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very good product, bad service The shaver is very good. I like the extra turbo speed and the effectiveness of the shaving head. However I doubt the effectiveness of the smartcleaner. It does not clean the knives of the shaving head. I achieve the same effect by cleaning with water. The safety plug is useless for me. I have no power point in the bathroom. And I cannot use it overseas. Philips refused the change it. I am using Philishaves more than 60 years. Why don’t you deliver anymore a brush and a travel case?

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Philips Shaver Series 5000 S5530 Wet & Dry I went from a PowerTouch PT860 to a S5530 Wet and Dry electric shaver, which I got in March 2019. The only thing I like about the shaver is it has a LED Display. No stand or brush, keep knocking the power switch. My powerTouch lasts longer between shaves. If the S5530 has more power, why has it a Turo Mode. Does not give a very good shave, in fact I have to go over the same area quite a few times. I have now gone back to my PowerTouch PT860.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product but still some niggles I used to use a cheap Philips shaver with three blades and I always had issues with the shaver missing hairs even when they were quite long and standing up, requiring many many passovers and resulting in irritating skin. However, when I got this shaver it has been a huge improvement. Firstly, it travels over the skin very smoothly and cuts hair relatively easily. There is a great turbo function makes the blades spin faster to help get through thicker hair. Secondly, it comes with a detachable trimmer. This has been kind of useful but I would find it more useful if it came with the plastic head which allows a certain distance between it and the skin, but sadly this is sold separately. Thirdly, the reason why it is not perfect is that I still struggle a bit to catch hairs when travelling over the contours of my neck. It is a huge improvement on my old shaver and it certainly does the job but it can still take lots of time to pick up all the hairs. It is not quite a wet shave but it is nonetheless quite quick and easy to use. Finally, the battery is great. I've been using it for weeks without charging, and it is very easy to clean as you just pop the lid and give it a rinse.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Stylish and easy to use with excellent performance to match I have now been using the Philips Vacuum Beard Trimmer for around 2 months and have been mightily impressed so far. Having grown tired of the mess that was created whilst using my previous beard trimmer, I was intrigued to see how the vacuum aspect would perform. Upon un-boxing the trimmer I was impressed with both the stylish design and feel in the hand. First setting up the razor was simple, and getting accustomed to the components was also straight forward with the information and instructions provided. The first time I used the trimmer I was very impressed with the performance, the overall trim was brilliant and the battery performance to date has been fantastic. The vacuum works very well, and there has been a drastic reduction in hairs around my sink and bathroom! Cleaning the beard trimmer after use is also easy given that the razor and the top component can be removed and washed. The only suggestion I would make would be a slightly different shaped brush (in addition to the one provided) to remove the hairs in the bottom of the vacuum chamber after use. Overall I have been very impressed with the Philips Vacuum Beard Trimmer and would definitely recommend it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from This razor has a turbo which is very good I have had several Philips razors over the years and this is a good one, you get a close shave and a nice finish to your skin and not the usual sore face you get from some shavers, probably because it is wet or dry I prefer wet, It has a nice shape to it as well,to fit in the palm of your hand
