Philips OneBlade Review

In this video review, we put the OneBlade Face Unit to the test against another strong contender—the Philips Norelco Multigroom 7100. We perform a side-by-side beard trimming demo to see how the OneBlade stacks up. Why the comparison? Based on features and pricing, we believe the Multigroom series could offer similar or better results, potentially delivering more value for your money.

Philips OneBlade – Part 2 Review

In our Part 2 Video Review, we test the Philips OneBlade Face Unit again. But this time, Paul uses each attachment to achieve a goatee from full beard. He goes step-by-step through the process to show the different levels you can trim the beard down to, all the way to skin.

Are the OneBlade models cost efficient?

You can check the current Amazon prices using the links above.

While the prices seem reasonable, the need for replacement parts stands out. The blades only last about four months with two uses per week. So, if you’re planning to use a OneBlade model for a year or more, be prepared for additional costs.

Here are our final thoughts after testing the Philips OneBlade Face Model QP2520.

Pros
The Philips OneBlade Face is a decent trimmer. While it doesn’t provide the closest shave, it works well and didn’t cause me any skin irritation, contrary to some reviews.

Cons
The wide blade can be awkward when trimming around tight areas like under the lip, risking cutting off more than intended. It also lacks a storage bag for attachments and has no battery life indicator. Philips clearly states it doesn’t shave as close as a traditional blade due to a green guard that prevents direct skin contact.

Also, you’ll notice in the Part 2 Demo that Paul kept his goatee thicker because the OneBlade attachments are not large enough to work through the thick hair.

Conclusion
The Philips OneBlade Face is ideal for those with shorter beards who don’t mind some stubble. However, for thicker beards, the Multigroom models (3000, 5000, 7000) perform better and are more cost-effective, as they don’t require replacement parts.

Don’t forget to check out the Part 2 Philips OneBlade Demo Video!

We came back for Part 2 on the Philips OneBlade because the GroomReviews community wanted to see another demo. This time Paul shaves all the way down to the skin to see how smooth a finish he can achieve. No product comparison this time, just the OneBlade Face, shaving down from a full beard to a goatee.

In this video, Paul walks you step-by-step through all the attachments included with the Philips OneBlade Face. He starts with the 5mm comb attachment on his beard. Then, he slowly begins trimming down his beard with the 3mm, followed by 1mm attachments. To finish, he uses the OneBlade razor itself, shaving down to the skin to see what’s achievable with this trimmer.

Thanks for stopping by! As always, we hope our reviews have been helpful and welcome any feedback or questions from our GroomReviews community.
