Blade to Electric?
Coming from blade, to electric after 45 years of shaving I found the initial experience a little sore and time consuming. After finding my footing and relaxing my approach to the task I found that the machine was very capable of a perfect shave in under 5 minutes. Having had to shave twice a day for most of my adult life this ha s saved time and is as good as a single blade shave

Disappointed. Harsh on skin. Everytime I use it and shaver cuts my face.

Does the job...
Initially, it sounds "underpowered" compared to my old Philips shaver but maybe that should just be "quieter". Originally I went for a 3000-series but this 5000 has more cutting blades per rotor so presumably a finer shave. There's also an unnecessary gap' between the rotors and the edge of the head making accessibility awkward in some facial areas, but it's not a deal breaker. The shave itself is close enough, but never going to compete with a blade like some seem to expect. Mains-powered would have be nice but then it wouldn't be suited to wet shaving, if that's your thing. And the quick charge is quick enough. A decent product at a reasonable price compared to the top of the range models that, for reasons known only to the marketing bods at Philips, allows web connectivity to Huston Control... 🤷🏻♂️

Smooth as silk shaving
This is my second Phillips shaver and I don’t regret the purchase at all! My first one lasted over 5 years before failing. I then mistakenly bought a cheaper alternative brand, that left me with shaving rash and an uneven shave. I decided to purchase another Phillips and what a difference! Straight out the box it was ready to run. The shave is superb and with the online extended warranty with Phillips (for free) it’s covered for 5 years!!! If your in the fence and looking for an impressive shave with reliability then look no further the Phillips 5000 is fantastic.
