The Essential Phone (PH-1, if you prefer) got a lot of attention at its launch last year, for many reasons.

How Much Would You Actually Pay For an Essential Phone?

When the Essential Phone first came out, I didn’t like it very much.

Thankfully though, post-launch, Essential didn’t just give up on the PH-1. Instead, the team followed up and...

Essential Phone Unboxing! The essential unboxing video you\'ve all been waiting for. Subscribe for my Essential Phone review. This video is about the new Essential Phone available only from TELUS in Canada. Pre-order yours now at http://telus.my/geXg25 The Essential phone is one of the most exciting developments in smartphones for 2017 / 2018. Essential is a new brand in the Android space but it\'s headed by individuals very familiar with Android. In fact without Essential\'s founder Andy Rubin, Android might not even exist. The Essential phone packs a clean \"stock\" type of Android interface similar to the Google Pixel and Google Pixel XL. The Essential Phone also includes a unique, modular accessory capability. Through a magnetic point on the back of the phone one is able to clip accessories including the new 360 camera for Essential phone. The Essential Phone is the first I\'ve ever handled that\'s made of titanium and ceramic. Essential claims that the titanium structure makes the Essential Phone more durable if you\'re to drop it. I won\'t be doing a drop test on my channel (I like the Essential phone too much) but according to Essential\'s website, when compared to other leading devices (made mostly of aluminum) the Essential fared better when dropped on concrete. The front of the Essential Phone is covered in Gorilla Glass 5, it\'s got dual 13 megapixel cameras on the back and an 8 megapixel camera on the front (capable of 4K video recording). It\'s also packing the Snapdragon 835 and 128GB of storage standard. The dual lens system on the Essential phone is different than the...

Andy Rubin, popularly known as the ‘Father of Android’, and his company Essential Products has launched a new phone, an intelligent home smart speaker, and a 360-degree camera. The Essential Phone offers top of the line specifications, looks beautiful with respect to design, and comes in four colour options. The device is up for pre-order in the US, however there is no word on when it will go on sale as of now. The Essential Phone is made available in Black Moon, Stellar Grey, Pure White, and Ocean Depths colour options. The price of the smartphone starts at $699 (roughly Rs. 45,200), but you can buy it with a 360-degree camera for $749 (roughly Rs. 48,400). Design-wise, the Essential Phone boasts of a futuristic aesthetic with an almost edge to edge display, a dual camera setup, and a fingerprint scanner situated at the back, and no signs of a visible logo. The display is worth noting as it is edge-to-edge, with only a thin bottom bezel. The flushed camera design keeps the phone free of any unsightly bumps, and there are two magnetic pins at the back for modular attachments as well. The metal edges house the volume keys and power button on the right side of the smartphone. The Essential Phone is made of titanium and ceramic which the company claims gives it the highest durability score compared to any other smartphone out there. As mentioned, there’s also a pair of magnetic back pins for a modular accessory system that will \"keep your phone cord-free, future-proof, and always up-to-date.\" The pins will act as a click cordless connector that will hook up to Essential’s t...
