Philips Series 7000 S7886/55 shaver
Product description
Getting a close shave while keeping skin comfort in mind is easier with an electric shaver you can rely on day to day. The Philips Shaver Series 7000 Wet & Dry for men combines SkinIQ technology with fully flexible heads to glide over the skin and cut hairs close, including on 3 day beards 🧔♂️. If you prefer the convenience of wet or dry shaving, this is a 100% waterproof razor designed for everyday use.
Using an electric shaver that stays efficient matters, especially when you shave regularly. This model uses 45 self-sharpening SteelPrecision Blades, which cut at high speed for an efficient, close result according to the manufacturer. You also get a razor with a pop up trimmer for details, plus a charging stand and practical travel case for taking it on the move. To help reduce hassle, it comes with a Quick Clean Pod and a Quick Clean Cartridge, supporting quick cleaning between shaves.
Key features
The Philips Shaver Series 7000 is built around smooth glide and close cutting. SkinIQ technology is designed to glide over your skin while cutting each hair close, even when your beard is longer, such as a 3 day beard 🪒. For day to day comfort, the trimmer includes a micro bead coating intended to reduce friction and minimise irritation.
A key comfort factor is the fully flexible shaving heads. They turn 360 degrees to follow facial contours, helping you stay in contact with the skin for a thorough shave. If your shaving routine varies across days or includes different areas of the face, that flexibility can feel like a practical improvement. You can also choose wet or dry shaving thanks to the 100% waterproof design, which many people find helpful for rinsing under the tap.
Performance is supported by the blade system. The razor uses 45 self sharpening SteelPrecision Blades, which the manufacturer states cut 90,000 times per minute for efficient cutting. The blades are also described as self sharpening over time, with a stated 2 year lifetime, so you are not constantly replacing parts.

What’s included
You get a full setup for charging, everyday shaving, and cleaning, not just the razor itself. The bundle includes a charging stand that supports regular top ups, plus a travel case for safe storage when you are away. For detail work, the razor features a pop up trimmer, which is useful for tidying up lines and harder to reach areas.
Cleaning is supported by a Quick Clean Pod and a Quick Clean Cartridge. This is particularly helpful if you want a straightforward routine, since it allows you to refresh the shaver quickly between uses. For battery convenience, the manufacturer also highlights a 5 minute quick charge that provides enough battery for 1 full shave. That can be handy if your routine changes and you are short on time ⏱️.
If you care about reliability, the design information provided focuses on long lasting performance. The blades are described as self sharpening with a 2 year lifetime. For the battery, you also have clear guidance on charging time and how long the runtime lasts once charged.
Who it’s for
It’s a good fit if you want a wet and dry electric shaver that supports close cutting with a comfort focused approach. You’ll like it if you shave regularly and value smooth glide, particularly when your beard is around 3 days. The 360 degree flexible heads can suit people who want the shaver to follow facial contours rather than relying on a single fixed angle.
It may not suit you if you prefer a very minimal travel setup or if you do not want to use the supplied cleaning system. You may also want to skip it if you are looking for specific technical specs like exact weight or material details beyond what the manufacturer states. For most everyday routines in the UK, this combination of charging stand, travel case, and Quick Clean system can make the shaver easier to live with.
