I have been looking into some stuff and for now the Philips oneblade looks like the most interesting option to me, does someone maybe have experience with it? How long do the blades last? Or are there any other alternatives you would recommend?

    I got one of those things and I’m not crazy about it. It feels overly complicated, it doesn’t just have a “cut where you hold it” beard trimmer type feature, it feels like an electric razor with extra shit to it and I didn’t want an electric razor, I wanted something that would hack through foliage

    Idk ill just buy a normal fuckin trimmer next time

      Thought about getting it, too but I see no benefit over a regular beard trimmer (Philips, Braun) and a regular blade for clean shavings.

          I’ve used a couple Phillips groomers over the years. The first one I had was from 2017 and the battery failed me in Jan 2025 (honestly happy with the 8years service).

          I got this multigroom 9000 kit to replace my old one. It comes with so much shit I don’t need (including a dang oneblade razor thing). I think the 7000 or 5000 should do just fine if you’re aiming for trim length, and not wet shave ‘neatness’.
