Philips Norelco BeardTrimmer 7300 (Model # QT4070/41)
The beard trimmer with an integrated vacuum system. Philips really likes to put vacuum cleaners on their trimmers, and for a good reason. It will catch most of the hair residue, making the job less messy, leaving your face and sink clean(er) after a trim.
The Philips Norelco BeardTrimmer 7300 has a total of 19 length settings. They range from a super short 0.5 mm (1/64″) stubble setting, to full on beard 18 mm (23/32″) setting, which are displayed on the multifunctional LED display.
It comes with a charging adapter, cleaning brush, and two combs (trimming and contour). The contour comb will assist in tracing the curves on your face, providing you a more even trim.
It also has a nifty “Turbo power boost button“. While it already hosts a capable motor on its own, the turbo boosts the cutting and fan power – excellent for that thick area on the chin, or thick beards in general.
The blades do not need oiling, and the trimmer can be used either corded or cordless.
Last, it has a long-lasting lithium ion battery. For a 1 hour charge, you get between 50 to 75 mins of trimming – depending on how much you were pushing the Turbo power boost button. This is a respectable runtime compared to most beard trimmers. You can see the battery remaining status on the LED display.
Philips is a leader in the electronics industry. They provide a large assortment of electronic devices; from beauty products to kitchen appliances, home entertainment products, lighting, healthcare devices and more. They tend to be innovative (particularly with beauty products), so a few of them unavoidably turn out as flops.
But this way they get a ton of things right – like the vacuum system on this beard trimmer, which to many would sound like a gimmick at first. It is actually a most useful add-on because you don’t have to wash you face after a trim (or clean your sink), which is a necessity with other trimmers. A real time-saver.
Unfortunately, it can’t be washed under water. So you will have to use the cleaning brush to get the hair residue out. But that is the only (minor) flaw.
This trimmer has been around for a while and has proven itself a success.
