Final Cut? Not suitable for changing hairstyles
I bought it because I want to switch between beard and clean shave from time to time and am very happy with my (high-end) trimmer from Philips. Unfortunately, I can't use this one for that - I trim the hairs down to 3 mm with the trimmer (the trimmer's minimum), but the shaver can't cope. It took me ages to get a halfway satisfactory result and it still wasn't as smooth as my old Braun. Maybe the luxury model is better, but this one is probably only really intended for daily shaving.
Pro
- Easy to clean
- Cable of the charging station has USB-A
- Quiet
Contra
- Price/performance
- Proprietary power connection to charging station
- Can't cope with trimmed hair
- He doesn't like damp skin either
- Shaving performance
Highlight in the shave
I am delighted with my new Philips S5898/35 shaver! The combination of innovative technology and attractive design makes it a real highlight in my shaving routine.
Performance: The performance of this shaver is impressive. The ComfortCut blades glide smoothly over my skin and ensure a close shave without irritation. Even with longer beard hairs, the shaver achieves first-class results.
Ergonomics: The ergonomic design sits comfortably in the hand and enables a precise shave, even in hard-to-reach areas. The non-slip surface provides additional safety, especially in wet environments.
Functions:I am impressed by the razor's versatile functions. The flexible shaving head adapts to the contours of my face and ensures an even shave. The turbo mode function enables an even closer shave in less time.
Cleaning and maintenance: Cleaning the shaver is child's play. The removable shaving head is easy to rinse and thanks to the cleaning brush supplied, cleaning the shaver under running water is also no problem.
Conclusion: Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the Philips S5898/35 shaver. It offers first-class performance, comfort and functionality at an affordable price. I can recommend it to anyone who is looking for a high-quality shaver that impresses both in terms of shaving quality and user-friendliness.Pro

Razor
Attention this is the model without a normal plug on the transformer, it can only be connected (charged) via USB, luckily I still have a suitable transformer (with the right plug at home).
I already had one of these, so I bought the "same" one again.
Clean shave after a short familiarisation phase
A solid shaver with which you can achieve good results. I needed 2-3 shaves for this. The blue display gives it a classy design - but it doesn't sound as high-quality and is also very light, which makes it feel a bit cheap. But at the end of the day, it's the results that really count!
Then there are no razor burns or cuts! All in all, a razor that I would definitely recommend!Pro
- Gentle shave
- Wet and dry shaving
- Smooth skin no stubble
- Sound, recognising whether hair is still being shaved
Contra
- Only for very short hair (but that's what it's designed for)
- Individual hairs are not caught if the angle is unfavourable
- Does not feel as high-quality as it is
My favourite razor!
The first impression is very pleasant. The shaver is excellently packaged and the packaging is of very high quality. The set contains everything you need except a charger. The shaver is only supplied with a charging cable. But that's not a problem. I really liked the bag for the shaver. Really practical and useful. Now let's test the shaver. The outer appearance of the razor is fantastic! Beautiful, feels good in the hand. The razor looks expensive. I like the switch between dry shaving and shaving with foam. Very practical. A razor like this is an indispensable companion when travelling. It shaves smoothly and gently and removes all facial imperfections cleanly. I have no irritation on my face. I am very happy with the result! The shaver works quietly and is very easy to clean. These are also important points for me. BUT I shave with the razor for a long time, enjoy it for a long time, then wash and clean the razor for a long time, dry the razor. Without haste... Many extra steps are required. The electric shaver is a tool for those who are in a hurry. And I like that). Using normal razor blades was much faster!
I completely switch to shaving only with the electric razor.
The testing was successful.
I honestly recommend this razor for purchase!"
