Overview

Philips built this rotary shaver with flexing heads and a PowerAdapt sensor that reads beard density and adjusts cutting power. It shaves wet or dry, and the set adds a quick cleaning pod with refill cartridges.

Automatic power adjustment and fully flexing heads give a gentle shave on thick or patchy growth alike. The cleaning pod needs replacement cartridges over time, and no wall adapter is included.

Who it's for

Men who shave daily or every few days and want comfort over sensitive spots. Those who already use foil shavers and like their feel may not want to switch to rotary.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Adapts power to beard density
  • Flexing heads follow the jaw
  • Waterproof for shower use
  • Cleaning pod included
Cons
  • Cleaning cartridges need replacing
  • No USB wall adapter included
  • Head type is rotary, not foil

Performance notes

Comfort comes from the PowerAdapt sensor, which raises or lowers cutting power as density changes so the blades do not drag. Heads that turn in all directions hold contact around the chin and jaw, where rigid heads miss hairs.
