Men praise Philips razor that ‘gives a very close shave’ and ‘leaves skin feeling soft’

‘Excellent, smooth and long-lasting battery and it does the job. I’d recommend it.’

Men are praising an electric shaver that they say gives “a very close shave and leaves your skin feeling soft”. The Philips Wet & Dry Electric Shaver is currently available for £44.99, down from £54.99 on Amazon, saving 18% in a limited-time deal.

The Philips Electric Shaver Series 3000X features SkinProtect Technology and 27 self-sharpening PowerCut Blades, offering a comfortable, clean shave even on sensitive skin, the brand says. The blades cut up to 55,000 times per minute right above skin level.

Users can choose to shave wet or dry, and it features an ergonomic shaver handle for a secure grip. The brand says the floating shaver heads flex in four directions to maintain even contact with the skin, protecting it from nicks and cuts.

As an alternative buy, shoppers could consider this Remington R6 Style Wet and Dry Rotary Electric Shaver from Argos, currently priced at £39.99. The ergonomic grip provides both comfort and control, while the 60-minute cordless usage time means users can enjoy multiple shaves, the site says. It also comes with a pop-up comfort trim detailer.

Another said: “Excellent, smooth and long-lasting battery and it does the job. I’d recommend it.”

While a third added: “Brilliant razor, replaces the old one I’d had for years, and I’m not disappointed.”

Others were more critical in their reviews, with one writing: “Could do with being a little more powerful, but for the price good.” Another said as part of a longer review: “It is fine for what I need as a shaver but not as good as my previous one. It also does not have a battery charge indicator to tell you when to recharge it either.”
