This is my first trimmer & I bought it after a long research. Compared it with other Philips trimmers & also with Gillette & Panasonic. This is the best with egro design. This is cordless & gets charged quickly. It gives minimum .5 mm cut which is as good as shaving. The power is good & it can trim hard beard too. Gillette trimmer is for very light beard.
The blade is removable & can be cleaned easily. This trimmer is not water proof but it wont effect its performance so I dont count it as a negative point.
I have no doubt in recommending this trimmer.
