Was suggested this razor by a friend, went trawling and found the closest lowest for this product was back in late 2020. Seems to be the best recent price if you need a handy electric shaver/trimmer.

Most reviews and OZB comments have stated, DO NOT use this around the crown jewels… Might be something for possible buyers to keep in mind.

EDIT: Credit to funky for cheaper AU link without the need for a power adapter!

    Can be used around the crown jewels, just have to be careful.

  • +2

    Really happy with mine, perfect for a 'good enough' quick everyday shave.

    Call me weird but not really keen on using the same shaver on my face as down below anyway!

    • +1

      i got 2 razor heads, 1 for my small face and 1 for large dongle, or the other way around

    • Are they better than electric Shavers? I brought a $120 electric shaver and either it's my face or hair it's all patchy no matter how often I go over the same area

      • +1

        Yes, had the same problem. even got an expensive Braun electric shaver and you had to go over the same area 3-4 times and it still came out patchy.

        This is very easy and leaves you quite smooth. It's like a micro bladed pair of clippers so gets a very close cut but too small to pinch the skin so safe to use.

      Thank you Funky, cancelled my order and reordered with your link. Updated post!

    Shavershop have it for $54.95

    https://www.shavershop.com.au/philips/oneblade-010128.html

    Love mine, it's such a great shave and quick and easy

    • +1

      That one doesn't come with the extra blade, better off with Funky's link above

    Why would I buy this over the $19 kmart shaver set?

    • +14

      Because not everything in life needs to be the cheapest crappiest option?

      • -2

        I own and use it, blows away any shaver I've tried thus far.

        • I can say the same about the Phillips One. It must depend on the facial hair.

  • Good razor, but if not in a rush keep an eye out for the Pro model with lithium battery which goes on sale for not much more

    • It is 79 on Amazon now. Is that a good price?

      Are these close to a smooth shave or better off getting something else if a smooth shave is what one is after? Any recommendations? I've been looking at the Braun series 5 5140s.

      • Not that great, was $67 last month, as low as $55 around Black Friday

        There is also another Pro model that has a bigger battery, 90mins runtime vs 60, and a digital battery level display but haven't seen that one drop below $99 though don't think it's worth the extra anyway.

        As for the shave, it gets pretty close. Not quite like a razor shave, but close enough to pass as clean shaven.

  • +1

    I've been using one of these for the past 2 years and absolutely love it. Yes it's not quite as close as a razor but it's so much easier and i haven't cut myself while shaving since i've had it.

  • +1

    how long do the blades last?

    • +5

      They say 3 months but I feel more like 6

    • I used to have the Pro model - and returned it to Amazon. The blades clip on with a flexible plastic mechanism, but it's very very thing and cheap. My first blade broke in just 2-3 weeks just from normal daily use. And I broke the next blade shortly after because I accidentally knocked the shaver off from the side of the basin into the center.

      The shave was pretty good otherwise and was quite happy with it.

  • Have these gone up? I swear I paid around $50 for the Pro years ago.

    Unfortunately one of my gfs bumped it and dropped it on the ground and it doesn't feel the same. I love it, I use it to shave my beard so my shaving is super quick afterwards.

    • +15

      One of my gfs…

  • Genuine question. Is this something like Gillette fusion pro ?

    • +1

      Nah that's just a razor with a vibrator.

      This is a different form of electric shaver - the tiny mesh moves against itself to basically act like tiny shears.

      • They're like very fine clippers. Only the edges do the cutting, not the flat surface. Love mine.

  • +1

    Thanks OP,
    Grabbed one.

    • Received mine today. Fantastic shaver. Finally not needing the shaving cream anymore.
      Missus wants one too for her legs.

  • Any clues on bargain refills ????

    • +1

      Recently I think best deal was a new signup with Shaver Shop to get $10 off the 2 pack bringing them down to $25 or $30, but they only seem to have the singles listed now.

      Best I can find at the moment is Amazon matching Myer on the 2 packs with Amazon getting down to $32.05 with S&S.

  • +1

    Been using this for 18 months, it's great but if you want a super close shave it won't be your thing… Well speaking from a middle eastern perspective so if you have fine hair YMMV. :)

  • The pro version of this works amazingly. it is a close shave (but not razor-close) and you won't cut yourself.

    It may just be my technique but I've found it will throw hair everywhere though. The sink, the mirror, the floor. Everywhere.

  • I have one of these but after some time the plastic comb that clips on is getting loose, the plastic must be worn a little bit. I see the new ones come with a fluro green clip-on comb instead, that's a different style.

    Can anyone say if the new style fluro green clip on combs work well - better than the original combs or are the original ones better and I should try and replace those?

    • I think the green one is for body hair

  • How do these compare to traditional electric shavers?

    Philips Shaver Series 5000

    For example

      I got a high end shaver and this, they are pretty close in the final result though a shaver is much faster. Also a shavers multiple blades last years really.

      • I found that my Philips 5000 series is still doing it's job 4 years later. I really want to sharpen the blades though.

  • This or Braun series 5?

    • I'd go for latter or better phillips ones. It looks like most people settle into a habit/routine so start off with one and stick to it.

  • is this better than 10 dollar gillette razor at woolworths

    • No comparison, this is way faster and 0 cuts (not quite as close a shave though)

      Doesn't turn you into a soyboy like Gillette too

    Thanks for the disclaimer. I was actually going to ask if anyone had TESTEd these.

  • +1

    Bought one thanks
