Norelco Compact Travel Electric Shaver - 700 Series, Dove Blue | Wet/Dry, 1‑Hour Battery

The Philips Norelco 700 Series Compact Electric Travel Shaver in Dove Blue delivers a skin-close, low-irritation shave with powerful cutting action and true travel convenience.

Small enough to slip into a carry-on yet engineered for high performance, this compact shaver blends a patented lift-and-cut approach with multi-directional heads and corrosion-resistant blades. It’s built to handle daily touch-ups or full shaves while traveling, offering both dry and wet use, an easy-clean waterproof design, and fast charging for busy schedules.

How does this shaver achieve a close shave without irritating skin?

The shaver uses a two-stage system: first it gently lifts hairs, then precision blades cut at skin level for a close finish. Floating, multi-directional heads maintain contact over contours to reduce repeated passes and minimize friction.

• Patented Lift & Cut system raises hairs for a closer cut at 0.00 mm skin-level
• 4D Flex Heads move in four directions to follow jawlines and neck
• Surgical-grade European hypoallergenic steel blades resist corrosion and are kinder to sensitive skin

Will this handle a thick beard and how powerful is the motor?

Despite its compact footprint, the device houses a strong magnetic motor designed to maintain cutting speed through dense growth. That means fewer pulls and steadier performance across multiple passes.

• Magnetic motor sustains high RPM for consistent cutting
• 360° rotating Dual SteelPrecision blades deliver rapid cutting actions to capture hairs in any direction
• Engineered to cut efficiently without bogging down on thicker sections

What makes it travel-friendly and how long does the battery last?

The shaver is sized for portability and includes a protective pouch and USB-A charging cable, so it integrates easily with common travel chargers. A full hour of cordless runtime after a one-hour charge covers multiple shaves, and a 5-minute quick charge provides enough power for a single full shave.

• Compact form factor fits carry-on or toiletry bag comfortably
• 1-hour runtime from a 1-hour charge; 5-minute quick charge for one shave
• USB-A cable included; power adapter not included for flexible charging options

Can I use it in the shower and is it easy to clean?

Yes — the shaver is fully water-resistant for rinsing and wet shaving with gel or foam. Its design simplifies maintenance so you can remove trapped hairs and rinse components under running water.

• IPX7 water resistance for safe rinsing and wet-shaving routines
• Detachable heads and corrosion-resistant blades make cleanup fast
• Works with foam or gel for a gentler, wetter shave when preferred

Who is this for: The Philips Norelco 700 Series Compact Electric Travel Shaver suits frequent travelers, professionals needing reliable touch-ups, and anyone seeking a compact device that still delivers skin-close results. It’s ideal for users who want strong cutting performance, easy cleaning, and flexible dry-or-wet use without sacrificing portability.
