The Philips S5898/17 is an electric shaver designed to provide a comfortable, even, and flexible shave, ideal for those who shave frequently and want to choose between a dry shave (quick and convenient) or a wet shave (gentler, with water and foam/gel). It's an excellent choice if you're looking for a modern shaver for everyday use, with good performance on facial contours and a gentler experience for your skin.
Dry and wet: it adapts to your routine
The ability to use it in both ways is key:
Dry: perfect for a quick getaway, shaving before work, or making touch-ups without any hassle.
Wet: ideal if your skin is sensitive or if you prefer the gliding sensation of foam/gel; it usually feels softer, especially on the neck.
In addition, these types of razors usually fit well into daily cleaning, because you can rinse the head to keep it hygienic after each use.
A more even shave with contour-following heads
Philips shavers of this style are made to work well in difficult areas such as:
Jawline
Chin
Neck
Thanks to its movable heads, the contact with the skin is more consistent, which helps to capture more hair per pass and reduce unnecessary repetitions.
More comfort for frequent use
If you shave every 1–3 days, a well-adjusted electric razor makes all the difference:
Less irritation than a manual razor when used very often.
More comfortable shaving in quick sessions.
Good results without having to "fight" with the most stubborn hair.
Designed for maintenance and touch-ups
In addition to a complete shave, it is very useful for:
Maintain a clean look every day.
Touch-ups before going out.
Quick strokes on cheeks and neck to look polished without wasting time.
Ideal for…
People who alternate between a quick shave and a gentler shave with foam/gel.
Users with sensitive skin who want a more comfortable experience.
For those looking for a razor for frequent use, without complications.
