Features of the product

Strong lithium-ion battery

The battery of the product is rechargeable and with one hour of charging, you can get one full hour to use it. It can also be used as a plugged product, for the corded use. Cleaning the trimmer is more than easy, as you have to just wash it out under the faucet.

Dual sides of the trimmer

Philips Norelco Beard Trimmer Series 5100 has a wide trimmer on one side and a narrow trimmer on the other side. The wider side of the trimmer awards you with perfectly straight lines. The other side, the narrow end, helps you to groom parts of the face, such as areas around the nose and mouth. This is ideal for long beards and lumberjack beards.

Locks in settings

Quick turn of adjustable wheel helps you choosing one of 17 different lengths, which goes from 1/64 to 13/32 inches (0.4 millimeters to 10 millimeters). This wheel locks in in order to keep combs in place. Now you don’t have to attach different combs and change them all the time, it is much easier with this wheel.

Pros

 Easy to clean – Without taking the combs, this trimmer is so easy to clean. You just have to put in under the water in your faucet, and clean it. Those blades to not require any oil or maintenance.

 Dual side trimmer – As the trimmer has two sides of the head, it saves you so much time as you don’t have to change combs. One side is perfect for trimming and the other for detailing and grooming part of the face which are not easy reachable.

 LED display – Philips Norelco Beard Trimmer Series 5100 has a LED display which shows you choices which you have. And as we said before, an adjustable wheel locks you when you choose your desired length settings.

 The package also includes – Except for trimmer, in the box you will also get power cord, beard comb and a cleaning brush.

Cons

 Clips/Comb push hair aside – There aren’t many cons for this products. Most of the reviews are positive and people are pleased with the product. It seems that the clips move the hair aside and not leading it to the cutting blade. If your hair is 2-3 inches thick, you will probably need to move the trimmer two or three times in a single area to get the result you want.
