the Philips OneBlade isn't your dad's electric razor it's built to resemble a
cartridge razor like the ones you get from Gillette, Harry's, or the Dollar
Shave Club, the difference is it doesn't leave your face torn up won't give you
razor burn its blades lasts way longer and you can use it for way more than
just shaving your face I've been using my Phillips OneBlade for over six
months now and in this video I'm going to go over my favorite features of the
device how often I've had to replace the blades for it how the device has held up
over the past six months and ultimately if I recommend the Philips OneBlade
let's dive in retailing at $34 on sites like Amazon it's a bit more expensive
upfront than a typical razor but you only need to replace the blades every
four months or so and they have an indicator on them that will tell you
when they've become worn down here's a comparison of what one looks like after
around four months and a brand new one so what did I think after my first shave
using the Philips OneBlade? Honestly I wish I had found this device sooner my
face did it feel all torn up there were no cuts it didn't cut into acne and
overall I found that this device was just as easy to use as a cartridge razor
I also liked that you can use this razor every which way
and don't have to worry about accidentally slicing your skin I was
surprised I didn't just have to go slow when using it you can really replicate
the same motions you would normally use when shaving with a razor with this
device and still have it work, now it didn't give me quite as close of a shave
as a cartridge razor that I've been using for years but I really don't mind
it's close enough where you're going to still look clean-shaven to the people
you see every day to me the benefits of this device are worth it when you
consider that you're not getting as close of a shave I found the one played
comfortable to hold with it's ergonomic shape and rubber green material on its
sides making it easy to grip one other thing that impressed me about this
device is that not only will it shave your facial hair but it will also trim
it as the standard device I got on Amazon came
with three guards with different lengths one three and five millimeters so you
can keep the facial hair on your face consistent at whichever length you want
if you're someone who has facial hair and once a precise tool that allows you
to get a really good edge with your facial hair the Philips OneBlade is
actually a pretty good tool for those tasks as well Philips has also come out
with attachments that you can use with this device that allow you to trim body
hair as well as facial hair and the entire device is waterproof so you don't
have to worry about ruining it after rinsing it between using it on your face
or trim other parts of your body now Philips does make a version of the
OneBlade that does come with a body hair attachment as well as an extra trim
guard now in that version the OneBlade device itself is not actually different
the only thing that makes that a package different are the two extra attachments
you get now if you're interested in that version of the OneBlade I'll make sure
to put a link of it in the video description below the one blade comes
with a rechargeable battery which will last 45 minutes on a charge so I
typically only charge it about once a month or so not very often and I haven't
had any issues with its battery or really anything about the device I've
only had to replace the blade once and are six months of testing and over all
that experience was great you can sign up on Phillips's website to get
replacement blades sent to you every four months or so with a 20% discount or
of course you can still buy them on Amazon and other retailers whenever you
need a new blade when comparing the Phillips OneBlade's overall cost
compared to what I was doing before I was getting a new pack of four blades
every month with the Dollar Shave Club at about $9 before tax which
comes to about a $109 a year for the Phillips OneBlade
I'll spend about $34 on blades a year which is quite
a bit less than what I was spending before and even if you count the $34
I spent on the Phillips OneBlade razor I still come out ahead can
to the razor subscription service overall after six months of using the Philips
OneBlade as the device I shave with I have to say that I've come away very
impressed with this device I'm often wary of claims like this device does it
all or you know you know those infomercials but I do have to admit that
the Philips OneBlade for a device at this price point it does do a lot of
tasks very well it's well designed easy to maintain
waterproof houses blades that are easy to replace and overall it's a device I'd
recommend to just about anyone looking for an alternative to cartridge razors,
those with well-known razors subscription services, or even users of
other electric razors that want something in a slim down package that
does more than just shave your face the Philips OneBlade retails for about
thirty four dollars here in the US and if you'd like to pick one up for
yourself I've linked a couple of versions of the device down in the video
description below well that'll do it for our review of the Philips OneBlade
