The Philips shaver is a best-seller on Amazon, with hundreds of shoppers giving it a five-star rating
With Father’s Day (June 21) fast approaching, shoppers are on the hunt for practical gifts they’ll actually use – and one best-selling grooming gadget is attracting plenty of attention after a price drop. The Philips OneBlade Hybrid 360 Blade Technology Electric Shaver has earned rave reviews from buyers, with one describing it as ‘one of my best purchases’ thanks to its versatility and ease of use.
Powered by Philips’ OneBlade technology, the trimmer uses a fast moving cutter that operates at 12,000 movements per minute, helping it tackle both short stubble and longer hairs. A dual protection system featuring a glide coating and rounded tips is designed to make shaving more comfortable against the skin.
The innovative 360 Blade flexes in all directions to maintain constant contact with the face and body, making it easier to trim and shave hard-to-reach areas with fewer passes. The device is designed to cut hair rather than skin, helping users achieve a close finish while reducing irritation.
The trimmer comes with three stubble combs in 1mm, 3mm and 5mm lengths for creating an even beard style, while the dual sided blade helps define edges and shape facial hair. It also includes a body kit with a 3mm body comb and skin guard for grooming more sensitive areas.
On Argos, an alternative option is the Wahl Pro Series High Visibility Beard Trimmer Grooming Kit for £170. This multi-purpose kit tackles bread trimming, body grooming and detail work with three interchangeable blade heads.

The Philips OneBlade has got 4.4 out of five average star-rating, however, from almost 10,000 reviews on Amazon. One person said: “This shaver has been one of my best purchases in a long time. I’ve been using it for a couple of months, and it delivers a close, clean shave without any nicks or cuts—even when compared to a traditional razor.
“It’s versatile, working wet or dry, and the different attachments allow for a complete 360-degree grooming experience, including sensitive areas. I managed to get a 3D printed stand for it all, which allows me to display and store all the components easily.”
Another said: “Best shaver I’ve ever owned. Dry shaves close to the skin and easy to trim the beard evenly. Does the job in no time and is even able to fine trim. I trusted the reviews and was not disappointed.”
A third commented: “This looks very smart, is nice and compact and is easy for my son to use. He is only 13 but is already quite hairy and on the spectrum so this was recommended as it is easy to hold and easy to use. It’s made the prospect of shaving much less daunting for him. Worth every penny.”
Some people removed a star, for example this comment said: “Works ok, one blade was missing though!” Another added: “It’s not 100% doing its job, but it’s okay to buy for temporary work.”
