Main Features

Precision

The GTX T-Outliner makes use of a T-Blade. This blade has curved edges allowing for easier handling and more precise trimming around beards, mustaches, ears, and the back of your neck. Perfect for shaping and more detailed shaving.

Ease

The powerful and fast motor assists in providing you with a smooth cutting experience and an incredibly close shave. Users with sensitive skin and ingrown hair problems have enjoyed success with this trimmer due to its effortless cutting and comfortable feel.

Quality

Andis is known for producing high-quality products, and this trimmer is no different.

This GTX is a professional grade trimmer that is part of the Andis Experience line.

Barber Favorite

The Andis GTX T Outliner is a standard fixture in barbershops across the world. A sure sign of an excellent trimmer.

Longevity

The GTX uses a magnetic motor.

While slightly less potent than rotary motors, magnetic motors are faster and have less moving parts, ensuring they will last a lot longer.

The Blades

Equipped with high-quality carbon steel blades that have been explicitly hardened to prolong the cutting life of the trimmer.

You can also easily buy if your blade does need replacing.

Some users have been using it for over 5 years, and it is still going strong.

Quiet

While not the quietest trimmer available, the GTX runs reasonably quietly. Making noise a non-issue.

Attachments

Four Attachment combs are included:

  • 1.5mm(1/16”)
  • 3mm(1/8”)
  • 6mm(1/4”)
  • 10mm(3/8”)

Fit

It’s comfortable to hold and fits well in your hand.

Tube of Oil

For maintaining the blades.

Cord and 3-prong plug

It comes with a 3 pronged plug instead of the usual 2 and a thicker 8ft cord.

The thicker cord does add some noticeable weight to the trimmer.

The Bad

Gets Hot

After prolonged use, the GTX gets hot. Hot enough to want to avoid touching your face with it. Buying a bottle of Andis Cool Care will go a long way to keeping the blades cool while in use.

1st Time Adjustment

Novices can find it tricky to adjust the blades. Luckily there is plenty of online resources to show you how to get it done quickly.
