Quality has decreased while price has increased
I've been using the one blade for about 4-5 years and have enjoyed it. The blades last for a reasonable amount of time and are fairly priced. That's why I was super disappointed when I went to buy more and saw that they are charging the same price for a single blade that they use to charge for two. On top of that, during my second shave, all the plastic on the blade crumpled and fell apart. Sad to see another company decrease the quality of its products to increase profits.

parts are outrageously expensive
I like the shaver; however, the parts are plastic and designed (in my estimation) to break. And the replacement parts, e.g., blades and guards are simply to expensive. Do yourself a favor and buy something a barber would use. Phillips/Norelco should be ashamed.

I have bought this for my husband
I have bought this for my husband whom has gone through a few different brands. And it works great for him. The only problem is getting replacement blades for it. I have bought 2 different sets and they were dull and pulled his hair. I returned then to the store and they said it was the user not the blades. The looked wore out and they were not sharp. But we love this product just need sharp blades
Hello. Thanks for bringing this to our attention here. We'd very much like to share some tips with you so your husband can enjoy the blades for a longer period of time. One of the reasons for the blade to turn blunt quicker than expected is improper cleaning. Cleaning tools such as brushes, towels etc or chemical liquids can cause early wear. Please follow the cleaning instructions for OneBlade below: After every use blow off any hair accumulated on the blade. Turn your OneBlade on and rinse the blade and comb(s) with lukewarm water. If the attachments need to be cleaned more thoroughly turn the OneBlade off, take off its attachments and wash them under a tap. Do not tap your blade on a hard surface like the sink to clean or dry it. This can damage the device. . Next to proper cleaning it is important to use your OneBlade only on recommended body parts. The Philips OneBlade is designed to be used on the face to trim and edge up your beard. With the body attachment, you can also use it on your body. However, if you use your OneBlade no other non-recommended areas, like your head, it may cause the blade to wear out and turn green prematurely. Always make sure your skin is clean before using OneBlade on it. The lifetime of the blade of your Philips OneBlade also depends on the volume and density of your hair. For hard or long hair, the blade can wear out quicker than for soft and/or short hair. We hope this helps. If you have any further questions, please feel free to get in touch via social media.

Doesn't Last as Long as they say
I like how the blade cuts as I usually shave my head once or twice a week which means that blade should last up to 4 months but I am lucky to get one month out of it before the blade turns green meaning it needs replaced. It also starts to pull and does not cut well after 5 or 6 cuts. Therefore the cost of replacements can get expensive as you need to reorder every couple months since they don't last long. Just beware they do not last remotely close to 4 months as suggested.

Not Worth Buying
I have been using the OneBlade for two years now. The original Skin Guard attachment in came with for sensitive areas is not great, but it does the job. I decided to purchase their "New" Skin Protect Replacement Blade. It's about two dollars more expensive compared to regular replacement blades and claims to have "unmatched skin protection". It's literally the same blade, and the only difference is that it has a plastic layer in the middle they call a "skin protection cap." The idea is that the cap is thicker than the blade, so it creates a small layer that stops the blade from touching your skin. However, the moment you angle it, or it's not a flat area, it exposes the little blades to your skin and cuts you. The original Skin Guard protection attachment is a way better protect. I definitely do not recommend this new blade. It's just lazy marketing to promote the same product with not much changes.

Works great when the blades are new.
I really loved this thing at first, but when not using the guard and shaving directly blade against skin, the blade will dull out within a handful of uses. I would typically use it to trim my neck hair when I was in a hurry and didn't want to razor, but it's simply unaffordable to use it in this manner, as you'd be spending $30 a month on blades. The battery lasts forever, which is great, but the amount of waste this produces over a lifetime for the blades alone makes it an extremely unfriendly product for the environment.

The product is simply Amazing
This "Norelco One" is simply Amazing. It gives me so much ease in clean shaving, lining and fading with its 3 different head caps. Its battery last so long and it is easy to clean and replace heads. It is light weight and I love the firm grip due to material used in manufacturing. I have used it for 18 months now and never had razor bumps. Friends don't believe it when i tell them I do my own face and beard lining. The head is flexible especially shaving under the chin and lining forehead and side burns. I love it and will recommend it 100 % any day.
broken
these blades are extremely expensive and break easily. the last replacement I bought was actually broken out of pack. haven't been able to use it in forever and have spent alot of money on this device. absolutely not worth it and philips, you owe me some money !
Hi, Thanks for reaching out to us regarding the OneBlade replacement blades. We are very sorry to hear of your experience, how disappointing that a new blade was already broken in the packaging and previously they have not lasted long. The replacement blades are aimed to be durable and be replaced approximately every 4 months. We suggest whilst cleaning, to avoid tapping the product or blade against a surface to remove hairs and water, as this may cause damage to the product and blade. We'll be more than happy to take a closer look at the problem for you and check the available options. Please feel free to get in touch via social media. We’re available 24/7 on Facebook and Twitter.

Head design pinches
My 3rd Norelco, and quite a disappointment! It pinches soft skin, especially near my mouth, and the head is wider than necessary, preventing clise shaving near my nose. It is quiet and shaves close, but think twice before buying!
Product get disattached from liver in one use
Though, I was using my old blade for since 6-7 monht, I have placed an order for replacment blade, which got disattcahed from blade itself, Now blade is in two part, I can't mount that again, as that was attcahed on hindge/clip.
