Philips OneBlade Review - 6 Months Later 

I'm watching this one my Philips OneBlade right now

Hey man, I still think you were the best Spiderman! 👊😏

He’s trying so hard not to say “shaving your pubic hair”

I bought it for my dad, so it actually IS my dad's razor.

I can vouch for the waterproof-ness and toughness of the blade as I accidentally put the unit with my clothes in the washing machine, I was very much suprised that the razor still works and the blade still cuts like normal. Highly recommended

I pass. I will wait for the $600 Dyson No Blade razor

I've had a One Blade for a couple years (still using the original cartridge) and it continues to impress. As someone who gets razor bumps pretty badly with traditional razors, the One Blade has been somewhat revolutionary for me. I recommend the product without reservation.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking the time to explain all of this without jump cuts every 5-10 seconds. I really appreciate how you took the time to film so many shots in one take and one complete, coherent thought, instead of cutting every time you missed a line (or breathed lol).

I may not be the target audience here, but as a woman, I love using this razor on my legs SO much. My eczema flares up badly if I shave my thighs with a cartridge razor, but nothing happens when I use the OneBlade which is amazing

RU-vid needs a channel like this, too many reviewers spend 5 minutes with a product and give it a thumbs up. Phone and laptop reviewers are the worst with this

I've used it for about 5 months to shave my face and my head and I agree with everything said here. It's a fantastic replacement for standard razors.

As someone who habitually lets my facial hair grow out way longer than I should (week and half to two week average) the one blade is a massive time saver. I would spend 40+ mins hacking away at my face with my old mach 3. Now im usually done in 15-20, and the attachments are great for keeping my bushy brows in line. So I look better, with less effort and none of the usual razor burn on my sensitive skin. Admitting I didn't "wear" my first blade out, I wound up stripping the connector to the handle since my hairs so thick, But I still got almost 4 months out it vs the one-two shaves I got out of my mach 3 blades.

I got this about 2 months and I am delighted with it. Closest thing to a wet shave without the hassle. The different trimmer heads work extremely well. I got it half price in a sale for €36 , great value for money!

I got it because it DOESN"T cut close and thus I didn't get ingrown hairs on my neck. I use mine once every month just to trim the neck hair of my beard.

I bought one of these a year, or so ago and love it. I've settled on the number 3 attachment and it keeps my beard trimmed to that length perfectly. It saves me a bundle on Barber Shop visits! As I only trim 2x a week, I've found that the blades easily last for 6 months! 😉👍

I purchased this as a must have irrefusable buy from the fleamarket for $10 NIB. Wasn't there a lithium ion battery version of this shaver when it first hit the stores? The lithium version was like 20 dollars more than the original one that had a shorter battery life, I think. Great review!

I love mine! Shaves and trims everything, easy to travel with, affordable, and like you said no face destruction. Recommended!

It really is a fantastic razor! I went to buy a simple trimmer, but ended up getting a Oneblade (for only €20!) and I haven't used my Norelco triple rotary shaver ever since. The Oneblade shaves almost as close as the Norelco with no skin irritation at all, there's no need to use any aftershave to calm the skin. A truly revolutionary device!

From the guy in the video and from all the comments I want one of these yesterday...Thanks to all who posted!

its really smooth for me. but that might be because I just started shaving and my hair isn't really thick and stubbly yet

Not quite the content I expected from this channel, but I do have to say, I personally use a oneblade and it's awesome.

My grand father was diagnosed with aggressive lung cancer and thrown to terminal care within a week. During the first week he grew a beard which was quite uncommon for him, as he never had one before. Turned out the hospital didn't have oneblades and he didn't want to be shaved with anything else. After getting one for myself I completely get him. Affordable, zero irritation, insanely clean cut... The future is now

I recently purchased this for twenty-five bucks and am pleased with this presentation reaffirming that I made a good choice due to my...unique facial hairstyle that's quite the ordeal with everything else I've bought in the past.

The oneblade is 🔥

When it's good it's good but that's not always the case. I love my OneBlade but there are a few dealbreakers that made me consider a switch. 1. The razors are very fragile, they're only being held together by some felxible plastic thingy which is pretty thin and break if too much pressure is applied (and that's less than you'd think) 2. The razors are SO EXPENSIVE, seriously, it's ridiculous 3. It seems like the bigger comb you attach, the more inconsistent results you get (but that might just be my beard) It's pretty nice for close shaving, but it wasn't as much of a hit for my beard treaming use.

I bought one today, found it for around 20€. Just finished shaving and it is above every blade I used so far. Skin is not irritated, no cuts, does not matter wet or dry shaving. I really like those combs that came with it since I never shave all the way to the skin. They (combs) work well, as they should. Can recommend for sure, especially if you find it for cheap

Top notch review. It answers all the questions I had about the product without devolving into needless technical desciption/marketing hoo-hah. It is also masterfully short.

This is an excellent product in my opinion. Been using it for years now

Nothing worse as a guy to watch than seeing another guy shave. Seeing someone shave in a direction that would tear my face up just sends shivers down my back.

I’ve had this device for years. Only ever bought one. The blades last a long time and the indicator is very helpful. Love this blade

Thank you for your review! It was extremely helpful and I think I will get one for my husband to replace his regular razors.

Just got mine today, thanks for the video!

I have been using my OneBlade for a couple years. I have absolutely loved it! There is no better option.

I love the Philips oneblade, it is the only device I've ever used that allows me a close shave without irritation and ingrowns (including safety razors and expensive Braun foil shavers). I use mine to shave every day or two and the blades last me almost two months. That was a solid review video and I agree with everything you said except two observations: 1) There is a difference in the body model vs the regular model, it has a lithium ion battery that holds a longer charge with less charge time. I have that model and even though it's not used for anywhere below the neck, the upgraded battery was worth it to me. 2) That is pretty unusual blade wear you presented there... It should be wearing away more evenly to eventually reveal two green arrows indicating it's time to change it out. Not knocking you, just saying you may want to contact Philips. All in all this is a great device and has really solved a long and frustrating battle with shaving for me. Even if someone doesn't use it as their primary shaving device like I do, it still is a valuable tool.

I bought this razor for my 16 year son. My beard thickness is not so easy for the Philips. I bought a few ago the Panasonic LV 65 with 5 blades and it cuts really close like a razor finish. I can only recommend it.

I still prefer a cartridge razor for my face, but I use the One Blade for trimming around my beard and for buzzing my scalp. I find the closeness of the shave lands somewhere between the cartridge and standard electric razor and it does a great job for what I want it to do.

Changed my life this, have really sensative skin, it's BOSS

I recomand this ! I have it over a year now !

Thank you for the review. I bought it based on your review and it is perfect for cleaning up around my trimmed beard. Much better than a normal shaver because it actually looks a little strange if you have a shaving cut or are shaved perfectly to a beard. Hard to explain but it just looks more natural and feels much better.

Just used one had 4 weeks hair and no problem!! Just took it easy and was great 👍

I have it, I can tell you the blade can wear out before 4 months, it has happened to me. Before any of those wear indicators start. It’s a good quick picker upper. The cartridges for its life. At least for me. Is expensive. I don’t mind the price, but for the longevity. I do not think I will be using this product long term. Does it get the job done? Yes, yes it does. Overall 3.7/5 for me.

i bought the oneblade 2 years ago and never once have i change cartridges! It still quite sharp.

Thank you for this video. I will buy Philips OneBlade today. 🙏

When I have a good grip on it for precision trimming, I'm often accidentally pressing the power button. I wish it was located a bit more out of the way. Otherwise, I'm happy with mine.

Excellent review i would recommend saying at the start of the video if it’s sponsored or not and always be honest !

I’ve been heavily investing in shaving for the last five years. Here’s what I’ve found based on years of experience looking for shave I want. (I want the smoothest quick shave without getting ingrown hairs or irritation.) 1) Annually, with daily shaving, the Oneblade will cost the same as buying the Braun Series 9 with cleaning cartridges replacing the cleaning cartridge solution every 19 cycles (I took over two weeks to count exactly how many cycles until the light turns on.) 2) The Philips Norelco OneBlade doesn’t provide the closest shave when “close” is defined by the length of hair protruding from the skin. However, “smoothness” I have found the OneBlade can provide (with extra work) a shave nearly as smooth as a Double Edge Safety Razor. This is all from my experience, not the opinions of others. 3) Using Leftric Shave or another electric pre-shave will make this even smoother. If your goal is the closest shave, the Gillette Fusion 5 should be the winner because it will cut under the skin, but that’s a problem. Cutting under the skin produces ingrown hairs. Don’t get me wrong, the experience of taking a warm shower followed by shaving against the grain with a new Gillette Fusion 5 ProGlide using the Gillette Fusion ProGlide Sensitive 2 in 1 Shave Gel is AMAZING. (Assuming you didn’t break out in ingrowns the next day.) But you know, like I do, that those sharp, amazing shave experiences don’t last very long on those blades. In my experience, the way to get an oil-covered baby butt dish soap lathered slip and slide smooth shave is using a double-edge safety razor. The best part is you don’t get breakouts. It takes time to learn, but I go against the grain nearly everywhere on its face every time I shave and am never disappointed by blade performance. Double edge safety razors are much sharper, profoundly cheaper, and easy to learn.

I have never liked electric razors but after having a stroke and not quite as steady as I once was I love this thing and I'm also a lazy shave meaning that I don't like to shave really impressed

Will this work well for my Dad's back of head neck line and about half way up the back of his head. Looking for something that clips or shaves clean.

Was this sponsored? I’m getting concerned about how much is just an ad.

I use this occasionally for body hair, but never for my face. DE safety razor is the way to go if you want to be clean shaven. Depending on the aggression of the razor, you can also complete the shave faster than with an electric.

I'm confused about the blade comparison at 1:00 is the one on the left still possible to cut? I thought the black grid on top was a mesh the hair went through and it cut underneath it - guess not??

I got razor burn/bumps from the one blade, am I doing something wrong? I’m doing light, long strokes like suggested.

I've been using mine for almost a year now and I haven't had to change the blades at all and it works so well stiil! :)

I had dollar shave club on every other month for 6 months and those 12 blades have lasted me over 2 years lol. I’ve always seen this and wanted to give it a try though! Thanks for the unexpected tech/beauty video haha

My question is: Can I use this on my head as well (black hair)? I shave using clippers but I want to use this as its smoother on the skin to clean up or keep my hair short every 2 - 4 days. Would this be a recommended solution? I can't take the hairclippers into the shower with me and the clippers tend to be harsh on my scalp if I shave often - I am bald and I have to shave every few days.

Hey guys, I've been struggling between this Philips OneBlade and the Remington PG6025. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I’ve had if for about a year or so and it the best razor I’ve ever had ! Razors last for months

It all depends on what you are looking for. I use a razor to shave, I use the OneBlade to body groom and it did it ridiculously fast and does not cut. A reviewer stated that it doesn't shave close enough for daily face shaving, I don't give a shit, that isn't what I use it for. Depends what you are looking for. Cheap fast works perfect for my needs and is safe. Winner.

Great review....decided to get one thanks to your video:)

Excellent Review! Thanks Again!

This was a pretty great review, got me convinced. Especially for that price, I don't need anything fancy. I'm going to give it a try, I've heard more than enough good reviews by now. Thank you!

I have it, I love it - it’s really the best

Have you tried using razor oil on the blade to keep it sharp?

I replaced my first razor in a year and four months, but the last two months I didn't feel very comfortable. I've got the same device to my son, and he still uses the first razor (1y6m), but he doesn't use it every day, but once a week.

I got the Remington Durablade and...I don't like it. It sometimes catches on my skin or pulls a hair out, and it also misses enough patches that going over them again would be no faster than just a regular wet shave. Is there reason to think this would be much better, or are they all around the same?

His channel is gonna BLOW UP🔥

After using it, how it is to the touch? More to the soft side or more harsh?

I have the one blade one year old, but used 3-4 times and it looks good. I think its the regular usage for 4 months that matters for replacement right ? In that case I can continue to use this one blade

I don’t think this would work on my face, but I might get this for my body hair

Thank you Tom hanks!! :)

Nice video brother. If you don't mind, what tech/camera did you use to shoot it?

I'm african American and always had razor bumps after shaving with anything but clippers until now best razor I have ever used point blank period

One major disadvantage of Philips OneBlade is that it will NOT operate while connected to the power supply, so when the battery is completely drained you are stuck with an unfinished shaving, unless you wait 30 minutes or so for the battery to be charged just enough to finish the job.

0:17 aaaand my mind instantly went there XD

Bought one of these around 5 years ago. Still the only razor I use. My son (14) has also started using it too, which is great as it’s a safe way of learning to shave. Try one - you won’t be disappointed.

hows this around the neck area? ive used a braun S3 and it died so im lookig for a replacement. the braun was always very bad at shaving the neck.

I am impressed of how many regular blades you used to use. A regular blade lasts a few months with me, but I don't shave every single day.

I'll wait for the Schofield edition it does your gooch.

What happens to the trimmed hairs? Do they get collected in a container like the classic shavers? I really don't like when it rains on my neck and fall inside my shirt

Is the battery replaceable or when it does do you have to throw the device out?

Forgot to mention no shaving cream or even water needed!

Just got one based off a few reviews. Was scary to use because i feel like it doesnt really tell you whats cutting because to 2 blade ends you see. Also🤣 since I've never used a electric trimmer anything before this one. . I used it in the shower, shaving pubic hairs.. Started with the body attachment, after i pulled off the attachment to get closer. Had to clean head as needed to which wasn't difficult. Like i said before that flat area seems to be doing some sort of trimming. I experimented At one point and kept it in place on the skin. Felt like it burned or cut me, didnt leave a mark but after that i decided its best to keep the blade moving 😂 it cuts close maybe not as close as a traditional blade but pretty close. Youll be satisfied.

Got one for my pops for Xmas and I have one myself. Couldn't be happier with this product

Will it last forever if i only use it as a trimmer and not shaver, or still I will have to change the blades irrespective of the usage?

Me personally, I use the good old rock and chainsaw to shave... call me old fashioned.

Mine stopped working, even if I charge it for hours. It goes off after 5 seconds.

How does it do for maintaining a short beard evenly and PRECISELY with those clip-on combs?

did replace the dollar shave club cartridge after every second use? how do you manage to get 4 months on the oneblade if it's only good for 32 shaves and you used 16 cartridges in that same period of time

Phillips is amazing 👏 I got rid of simple razers for at least 1 year There is only 1% of difference between Phillips shavers vs Normal Razer It gives you 99% smooth shave like a Blade Battery life is very good Wish i could have got phillips earlier because i have wasted a lot of money getting shavers which were expensive . Phillips electric shavers are beautifull . It gives you a quick shave weather you go outside or at home you look good . Let me tell you the best thing about phillips it gives you shave without hurting your face at all .

I don’t know about anyone else but this is the best shaver I’ve found so far to clean up the sack and pelv... As long as you do the flying squirrel in the area your shaving you’ll have great results and minimal nicks if at all. I even use it on my wife for surprisingly nice hardwood floors. I find it to be a very useful product.

What I'm looking for is the charging cord for a Noreco Phiios OneBlade, model QP 272470.shaver. Any ideas of where to get one?

This tore the shit out of my pubic region, hairs kept caught

So I’ve been using mine for almost 2 years and I finally replaced my blade today... and I didn’t need too yet either.

This guy is legend! In 5 mins he put everything.

You have right in all you set .I use this machine some months and is the best machine that i bought ever.

This thing is very good, but since it leaves some very evident stubbles on my (moustacheless) face, it’s a pass. The beauty of having thick hair, huh?

Anyone else think this guys voice was dubbed? jeje

can we use it everyday or after 2 days ? is it that good?

Cut to the point. Dose it work well on your family jewels and backside?

First impression of watching this: you look like you don’t shave...so...how good is it?
