The Philips Series 5000 Norelco Electric Cordless One Pass Beard and Stubble Trimmer is a miracle of a trimmer. It's effortless to use and gives an even trim to achieve the 3-day stubble, short beard, long beard, or even touch up your hair style. With 40 adjustable length settings from 0.4mm to 20mm and additional 3 guard attachments, it's easy to get the look you want. The innovative Lift and Trim PRO system lifts low-lying hairs and guides them towards the sharp metal blades for a precise cut.

Users have reported that it really is a "one pass" trimmer, with one user stating that they have never had this perfect of a beard trim with any electric trimmer they have ever used. However, some users have had issues with the provided comb guards, with one user reporting bald spots due to a gap in the black comb. Another user reported uneven trimming and more ingrown beard hair due to the trimmer cutting too close if angled wrong. Overall, the Philips Series 5000 Norelco Electric Cordless One Pass Beard and Stubble Trimmer is a great trimmer with long-lasting battery and powerful performance, but with some issues with the comb guards and potential for uneven trimming.
