Android founder Andy Rubin and his smartphone
maker have introduced their first smartphone. The company has launched this
smartphone called Essential. This smartphone is currently made available in the
US. The phone can be booked by visiting the company's official website
Essential.com. However, no information has been provided about when this
smartphone will launch in India. The company has priced this smartphone at $
699 (about Rs 45,200).
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 two modular accessories launched alongside – the
360-degree camera and its Essential Phone Dock. This modular system reminds us
of Moto Mods – Lenovo’s efforts at creating modular accessory category in the
market. There’s no 3.5mm audio jack on the Essential Phone (though it ships
with a USB Type-C adapter), so we can expect Rubin and company to launch more
such modular accessories to specifically amp up the audio game.
Snapdragon 835 processor has been used in
this phone. Let us know that this is the latest processor so far. Earlier this
processor had used Samsung in its latest smartphone Galaxy S8. The features of
this smartphone are like the other premium smartphone in the market. Apart
from this, the biggest feature of the phone is that the company has given a 360
degree camera.
