QT4005/15 : Best Entry Level Philips Trimmer
If I were to give the best budget choice to one of these Philips trimmers it would probably be QT4005. It’s not the be-all-and-end-all of beard trimmers and it has its fair share of drawbacks but we have to give props to Philips for offering a solid trimmer at this price point.
Going by the beard trimmer reviews that QT4005 has garnered over the years, it’s a crowd favorite. It’s not hard to see why: It has all the basic features you need in a trimmer: a comfortable design with good grip, a zoomring with easy to adjust length settings, a stainless steel blade system to help you achieve a precise cut, and a decent battery backup. It’s definitely not a premium offering from Philips, but it’s terrific value for money.
