Actually this trimmer is not useful to trim beard , the battery life of this trimmer is very less and we need to continously charge it to maintain its battery condition , also this brand gives us a 6 months warrenty but with no service stations arround , on the other hand comparing it with philips trimmer , they provide a good quality trimmer with 1 year warrenty at nearly same price therefore I dont think nova trimmer has value for money . I personally have it and its setting also bore me ie not userfriendly
