Good but should be better
Initial impressions were good, however, I feel that the shave has become more time consuming and i have to return to use my manual blade to smoothen the bits that this shaver missed. I do not have a lot of hair growth so it shouldn’t be like this.

Works well
Purchased a couple of weeks age, this shaver works well although you do have to go over areas repeatedly to get a good shave. I do far have only used it dry and not tried it in the shower.

Great improvement on my last Philishave
The saver is very good works well dry, gives a smooth shave, heavier than I expected and the battery doesn't last as long as i thought it ought to once the first bar has shown it doesn't take long before it needs recharging. Easy yo clean and the trimmer works well ,all together a great improvement on my old Philishave but that is 10 years old !!

Quiet and has an integrated trimmer
I like the shaver’s quietness and the integrated trimmer, but I expected a closer shave and less skin irritation, especially on the soft skin on my neck. My previous shaver, a 9000 series died on me after five years and I’m concerned that this ne will do the same.

Great shavers
Probably the best electric shave I have ever had. Don't hesitate buy them.

Sustainability? You are joking, Philips
So - in the name of sustainability, Philips has removed the two pin charger used in bathrooms in homes and hotels throughout the world and which doesn’t require a plug, and replaced it with an out of date USB A charger which requires me to purchase a plug and adapter to use it at home or abroad. Another example of corporate greed masquerading as sustainability.

Shaver S5887/10 review
A good smooth shave, quiet and looks stylish. In six weeks it has needed recharging just two times which is good. On an earlier 5000 model the flip-out cover used to fall off when I lightly tapped the shaver to clean it. This model has made the joint more secure. My wishlist: I would prefer it to have a more depressed power button. When shaving I have repeatedly pressed the power off. The switch is in the middle of the grip area. Perhaps moved upwards, or more depressed, would be better for me. Is there any reason why it could not have a USB-C socket for charging? Rather than the 2-prong shaver adaptor that does not fit anything else.

Hello,
Yes, you will need to buy an adapter with the Series 5000 Wet & Dry Electric Shaver S5898/25 as the power adapter is not included.
