Nice Package
So far works well. I like the well thought out package includes the rinse cup, hard box, safety guard, mirror and spare blades. Gives a nice even cut (down to a slight stubble) and not had any problems with irritation, rash etc which is helpful. It’s a nice shaver, easy to use, and around six weeks in, very happy. Still to charge it, so battery life has been very good.

Best I've had
This is by far the best and smoothest head shaver I've had. I use it for wet shave in the shower and it works just perfect !

Could Be Better
It cuts fine for me, but I don't require a close shave or a bald head, so I may not be a typical user? I just require stubble on my head and the unshaven look on my face. As regards cleaning, I find it needs to have the full clean each time, as just opening and washing/brushing it doesn't work for me. Even after using the supplied tub first, there is far too much hair still trapped, thus requiring a full strip and clean of the nozzles and cutters, etc. Also, the instructions could be somewhat clearer, as to the best way to split open the head assembly without damaging anything. I finally risked using a thin plastic spatula in the gap and gently rotating it. This works fine, but a bit more information regarding this procedure could prove helpful to new owners.

Phillips Head pro beats Remington Head Shaver hand
An excellent product Beats Remington hands down . Bought this 26 of August 2026 It gives a closer More head friendly shave than the Remington that I replaced . It's quiet in operation And gentle on my head . It's easy to use in either position in either hand . I would give the extra star if this appliance had a display showing what was left in the battery. I think it's the only thing missing. Would I recommend this product Yes definitely I would Well with the money.

Great shaver
I bought this head shaver because I totally trust Philips products and it hasn't let me down. It really does shave nearly as close as a blade providing you clean it after each use and use it every day. The run life is really good and the charging time is great. The only thing I would say this shaver needs is a battery percentage indicator instead of just an indicator light when it needs charging. Good product for not really a great deal of money.

Best head shaver yet
Good piece of kit gives you a real close shave. Replacement blades very expensive hence 1 star deducted.

slow and miserable
This is a terrible head shaver. Its big, bulky and slow. I bought this to replace a Remington rx7 that started having issues and have been using it for the last 8 months or so. I was happy to see this has the same plug as my Philips beard trimmer but that was where the happiness ended. This shaver is so painfully slow, and if you happen to miss a day of shaving it takes even longer. I shave in the shower and my hot water bills increased significantly after getting this shaver due to how long it takes! Yesterday i bought a Remington xr8000 and just had my first head shave after a few nights away and it feels a closer shave and it was much much faster than anything this Philips had produced since owning it. The Remington was so good it compelled me to write this review and throw away the Philips after only 8 months of use. To top it off the Remington will now replace my beard trimmer as well as it comes with a very usable beard trimmer attachment including different size and adjustable combs (and the most useful of my Philips ones broke!). Don't buy this head shaver. If you've had a Remington before, this will leave you frustrated and out of pocket. If you've always used Philips, give a Remington a shot and you will not be disappointed

Easy to use and quick
Easy to use. Sadly you'll need a small straight shaver to get contours that this shaver can't access to cut. Only down side. Cuts hair shorter then 3mm, with nice smooth finish

Excellent
I use the head shaver in the shower which results in a really close shave. I only shave my head so the battery is lasting ages and the cutters will not need changing for three years!

Great Head Shaver!
I purchased this as a replacement for another well known brand which I had trouble sourcing new heads for. The 5000 model was not much more expensive than a new head for my old shaver would have cost. The Phillips performed easily as well as my old model but with the benefit of far less skin irritation. My only regret is not having spent a little more on the 7000 model , as it comes with a nice storage bag and has a longer run time (the 5000 bag is pretty useless). Overall I would definitely recommend the Phillips Head Shaver Pro series.
