Philips Norelco Series 5100 Review:    • Beard Trimming - Philips Norelco Seri...  

In this video, I give you my full review of the Conair I-Stubble beard trimmer, model GMT900N. Along the way, I test it against the Philips Norelco Series 5100 to find out which beard trimming device achieves the best stubble look.

Right out of the box, Conair touts the I-Stubble beard trimmer for its pivoting flexhead technology that adjusts perfectly to your face for extra comfort and control. Conair further pledges that the I-Stubble is built to get you from five o’clock shadow to designer stubble.

Looking at Amazon, the ConairMan I-Stubble is an Amazon Choice recommendation. It ranks at #23 for the category of Beard and Mustache trimmers and holds a 3.5 out of 5-star review rating.
Inside the Conair I-Stubble GMT900N box, you'll find the trimmer and built in beard comb, electro-chemically formed blades, a charger, brush and lubricating oil.

Now, if you take a look at my previous video on the Philips Norelco Series 5100, you’ll notice that these two grooming devices are both dry operation trimmers that claim to achieve the perfect stubble look.

Starting with the Philips Norelco Beard and Head trimmer, this groomer utilizes 3 beard and hair combs that work in combination with a built-in zoom wheel. However, the ConairMan I-Stubble is made solely for the face and integrates a single flip-back guide comb that height adjusts on an LCD display.

Focusing on height adjustment, almost identical to the Philips Norelco Series 5100, the Conair I-Stubble beard trimmer allows for 15-integrated trim settings. These start in 0.2mm increments from lengths 0.4mm to 2mm and 0.5mm increments from lengths 2mm to 5mm.

As far as battery life, the ConairMan I-Stubble beard trimmer uses a nickel-metal hydride battery vs the lithium-ion battery of the Series 5100. Additionally, the I-Stubble requires 90 minutes of charge time for 45 minutes of use. Furthermore, a 16 hour initial supercharge will ensure optimum power performance for smooth fast trimming.

In contrast, the Philips Norelco Beard and Head trimmer only requires 1 hour of charge time for 70 minutes of cordless use.
Even more, the Conair I-Stubble GMT900N and Philips Norelco Series 5100 both have a 5-minute quick charge. The difference being that the I-Stubble is good for only 3 minutes of use, while the Series 5100 is good for one cordless trim.

Both units can be used plugged in for continuous use.

Now, for first use, Conair recommends that 2 drops of lubricating oil be applied to the blades. Before you apply, make sure the beard trimmer is on and the blades are actively moving.

Important to note, oiling trimmer blades can reduce friction and keep them from pulling or snagging facial hair. Additionally, about once a month you should oil the trimmer blades.

For cleaning after a trim, the blades are removable and can be rinsed under the tap. However, the Conair I-Stubble only to be used in dry condition and cannot be used while bathing or in the shower.

Currently, the ConairMan I-Stubble beard trimmer, Model GMT900N sells on Amazon for $39.99 vs the $44.99 price tag for the Philips Norelco Series 5100.

Overall, the Conair I-Stubble and Philips Norelco Series 5100 both achieved that stubble look at the 0.4mm setting.

But that said, one of these trimmers has an advantage over the other and is my recommendation for you. Make sure to check out the video above to find out!

The Conair I-Stubble includes the following:
I-Stubble Trimmer
Electro-chemically formed blades
Charging Cord
Cleaning Brush
Lubricating Oil

Good Luck!
