- Is the RX5 good for sensitive skin?
- It is a rotary shaver with a 0.2 mm cutting length, so it can be used wet with gel or foam, which most sensitive-skin shavers prefer. Go slow and avoid pressing hard, since the heads do not flex.
- Can I use it in the shower?
- Yes. It is waterproof and rated for cordless wet or dry use, and it rinses clean under running water.
- How long does a charge last?
- Up to 50 minutes of shaving per full charge, which is roughly a week or two of daily shaves. A full recharge takes about 4 hours.
- Does it have a trimmer for sideburns?
- No. There is no pop-up or precision trimmer, so edges and sideburns are better handled with a separate trimmer.
- What comes in the box?
- The shaver, a charging adapter, a cleaning brush and a storage bag.
- How does it compare with Philips rotary shavers?
- It is lighter and simpler, but Philips rotaries in the same class typically add flexing heads and a pop-up trimmer. The RX5 wins on simplicity and easy rinsing.
