Lift & Trim comb. Long beard comb Pouch: Storage pouch. User manual. Guarantee. Review: Reliable as always. - Having used this for a while now I’m happy to write an informed review. As a bit of background; every summer I trim my hair right down, easier to manage in the heat. Plus with what’s going on right now, can’t exactly nip to the barbers. On top (or underneath) of that I’ve got a beard which depending on how much I can be bothered varies in length from 10mm to 30mm. Anyway. Moving on. I’ve used Philips for years. Always found them reliable and long lasting. Especially the battery. Last one wasn’t quite up to scratch, the part that held the comb in place wasn’t quite good enough so that led me on a track to looking for another brand that would suffice for my hair and my beard. But had to be easy enough for me to do my own hair when the Mrs couldn’t be bothered. So I bought the Wahl Aqua. Repackaged and sent back with hours. Utter rubbish. Then bought the same day. By a long way the best trimmer of any kind I’ve ever owned. And I’ve had loads of them. Since leaving the military I don’t shave, I merely trim my beard every three days instead and now my hair as well (without guide comb so 0.4mm). Battery lasts forever. I’ve owned this nearly two months and charged it twice but it gets used two or three times a week for between 15-30 minutes each time. Comes with two combs which is handy if your desired beard length is longer, one does 0.4 to 10mm the other does 10-20mm I think. Loads of increments as well. I use this without the guide comb on my hair and it’s smooth and easy, not too heavy so easy enough if you’re doing your own hair. Waterproof as well which is cool but I wouldn’t use any of them in the shower regardless if their waterproof or not. Not worth it. Just take it as meaning you can clean it under tap. Although from my own experience, stick the head under tap and point the charging port at the bottom upwards and away from the water. Always try to keep the charging port dry. Purely because I see this question asked a hell of a lot- And guys just remember, if a trimmer is good for beards it should deal with head hair no problem. That’s always been my experience anyway. Facial hair tends to be thicker than head hair so don’t worry if it doesn’t mention hair trimmer in the description. The only thing being, depending on how you cut you hair, is the attachments it comes with. But that’s all subjective. Anyway. Recap. Superb trimmer, 5 star, amazing battery, Rapid charging, decent attachments, very well made, waterproof (DONT USE IN THE SHOWER THOUGH!!! Just clean under the tap), does hair and beard. Team it up with either the Philips mini trimmer or the mini foil trimmer and that’ll take care of the edges of your beard as well. Although I often use a safety razor instead but I do own all of the above. Depends on the scenario to be honest. Guys. Take it from me. This is a winner. And yes, I paid full price for this, not a vine review or discounted etc. Review: Great beard and stubble trimmer, best I have had yet. - I have had various beard trimmers over the years, Remington, Philips, Wahl, Silverlight (LIDL) and a couple of others. The only one I really liked and that lasted well was an older Philips trimmer. The Remington was a pain as it was a cabled trimmer and the depth guides weren't that accurate. The build quality of the Wahl was atrocious and it fell apart just oput of warranty! The Silverlight was OK but the battery didn't hold charge very long. So when I saw another Philips on 'Deal of the Day' I thought why not give it a go. First impressions were good, as on my earlier Philips the trimmer is self-sharpening and does not require oiling; the build quality is great and feels solid in the hand; and, the guides are slightly different from other trimmers, they have two prongs that slot into the top of the trimmer. OK, charged it up and off I went. Set the length to 2.5mm and lo and behold it trimmed my beard to the perfect length...this has always been hit and miss in the past as with all others I had to use the shortest setting and even then the length was often still too long. Two guides are provided and there is a dial on the front for setting the length using each allowing a range between 1mm and 20mm. Cleaning is simple, the trimmer blades having a positive and firm click into and out of the handle. I have tried various other length settings and there is a noticeable difference between each, 3mm is too long for me and leaves my beard looking slightly scriffy, while 2mm is too short for my liking but at least you can see the difference! I have used it for trimming the edge of my hair, particularly around my ears, but I wouldn't try and trim my whole head with it because the blade is quite narrow, being designed as a bear trimmer. As to the battery charge hold, in a year of use I have charged it only four or five times after using it 2 or 3 times each week. I must say, this is probably the most accurate (for length) and best quality beard trimmer I have ever used. ## Features - Style your beard with an effortless, even trim: the innovative lift-and-trim system guides the hair towards the blades for an effortless trim in less strokes - Double sharpened full metal blades that cuts more hairs in every pass for faster trimming with rounded blade tips for skin-friendly performance - Get an even trim at any length with the adjustable zoom wheel with 40 lock-in length settings, from 0.4 to 20 mm - 1 hour charge allows 90 minutes of cordless use, alternatively use it plugged in. A quick charge function delivers one full trim after 5-minute charge - 100% waterproof ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07JJF3Q2D | | Are Batteries Required | Yes | | Best Sellers Rank | 18,253 in Health & Personal Care ( See Top 100 in Health & Personal Care ) 94 in Facial Trimmers | | Blade Material | Metal | | Brand | Philips | | Brand Name | Philips | | Colour | Silver | | Connector Type | 3-pin plug | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 5,997 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 08710103885474 | | Hair Type | All | | Is Waterproof | True | | Item Dimensions | 14.3 x 7 x 23 centimetres | | Item Nype Name | BT5502/13 BEARD TRIMMER CLOSED BOX (3-PI | | Item Weight | 0.46 Kilograms | | Item weight | 0.46 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Philips | | Manufacturer Part Number | BT5502/13 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 2 ; | | Material | Metal | | Material Type | Metal | | Maximum Cutting Length | 20 Millimetres | | Minimum Cutting Length | 20 Millimetres | | Model Name | Series 5000 Beard and Stubble Trimmer | | Model Number | BT5502/13 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Charge Indicator Light, Fast Charge, Waterproof | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Power source | Battery Powered | | Recommended Uses For Product | trimming and maintaining facial hair | | Recommended uses for product | trimming and maintaining facial hair | | Specific Uses For Product | Beard, Mustache, Sideburns, Head Hair | | Target Audience | Men | | Unit Count | 1 count | ## Product Details - **Blade material:** Metal - **Brand:** Philips - **Colour:** Silver - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 14.3 x 7 x 23 centimetres - **Item weight:** 0.46 Kilograms - **Material:** Metal - **Power source:** Battery Powered - **Recommended uses for product:** trimming and maintaining facial hair - **Special feature:** Charge Indicator Light, Fast Charge, Waterproof - **Target audience:** Men ## Images ![Philips Beard & Stubble Trimmer/Hair Clipper for Men, Series 5000, 40 Length Settings, Self-Sharpening Metal Blades, UK 3-Pin Plug - BT5502/13 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71wQ87FFCrL.jpg) ![Philips Beard & Stubble Trimmer/Hair Clipper for Men, Series 5000, 40 Length Settings, Self-Sharpening Metal Blades, UK 3-Pin Plug - BT5502/13 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/8130J8s46tL.jpg) ![Philips Beard & Stubble Trimmer/Hair Clipper for Men, Series 5000, 40 Length Settings, Self-Sharpening Metal Blades, UK 3-Pin Plug - BT5502/13 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91SxeLvjBrL.jpg) ![Philips Beard & Stubble Trimmer/Hair Clipper for Men, Series 5000, 40 Length Settings, Self-Sharpening Metal Blades, UK 3-Pin Plug - BT5502/13 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/8113KOBIrwL.jpg) ![Philips Beard & Stubble Trimmer/Hair Clipper for Men, Series 5000, 40 Length Settings, Self-Sharpening Metal Blades, UK 3-Pin Plug - BT5502/13 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61mBO5Fl9wL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What are the number arrangements between 0.4mm to 20mm.** A: Other answer is wrong or out of date.

Once charged can be used unplugged. **Q: How do you remove the blades to wash underneath - do you simply clip it upwards from the blade side and remove and then clip it back in when dry?** A: Hello, This is Chara from Philips and I would be happy to help you! In order to clean your groomer, take off the attachments and cutter and clean the area underneath with water. Do not use soapy water or any cleaning detergents, as this can remove the protective oil on the cutter and effect its performance. Wash and dry the attachments separately before reattaching them to the groomer. Never dry the cutting unit with a towel or tissue as this may cause damage. Please, ensure before cleaning the device that the power is off and the appliance is disconnected from the wall socket and never immerse the appliance in water. Keep also in mind, that no oil or replacement blades are required for this device. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact us by sending us a message on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter. Alternatively, you can find more contact options on our official web page. Kind regards, Chara **Q: Does it cut the hair down right to the skin without the attachment .i need a good trimmer to line up my moustache and neckl** A: Hi, thank you for your question. This trimmer is perfect for low-lying hairs and lifts them up towards the blades for a precise cut. I hope this helps, but if you have further questions, please feel free to reach out via Facebook, Twitter, or via the contact page on our website.

I love that all the different lengths you need are all in one attachment and you control the length with the roller situated on the handle. Which makes it very easy to use and minimises the need to keep changing trimmer heads like with other trimmers. One charge easily lasts me upwards of a month so no need to charge all the time. The cut is gentle and has never pulled my hair, the trimmer slides gently and easy. I love that's water proof and can just be washed under the tap it makes it very versatile as you can use it wet if wanted and easy to clean. The only issues I have with it are that 1 is a little larger than expected which can be awkward at times, but just takes getting used to. 2 is that you have to shave at particular angle for it to work right due to how the trimmer headand guard works. And last 3 when using without the trimmer head you have to be careful around sensitive areas, as this did cut my lip when trimming round the mouth. All in all still a great trimmer and I highly recommend ## Frequently Bought Together - Philips Beard & Stubble Trimmer/Hair Clipper for Men, Series 5000, 40 Length Settings, Self-Sharpening Metal Blades, UK 3-Pin Plug - BT5502/13 - Philips NT3650/16 NOSE TRIMMER WINDOW BOX, Grey, 1 Count ( Pack of 1) - Philips Bodygroom Series 5000, Showerproof Groin and Body Trimmer, Close and Comfortable Shave, Complete Body Grooming Including Back, 60 Min.
