In the past MWC, Andy Rubin's platform, Essential, had a testimonial presence, a presence that he used to speak with some media and incidentally announce that the Essential Phone would arrive in Europe in mid-May, a terminal that has not had the expected sales, in part due to its high price and the poor quality of the camera.
Said and done. UK and French users Those who want to get hold of the Essential Phone, the first smartphone that implanted a notch on the screen of a terminal, can now be purchased from these countries in addition to Japan. The only but are the shipping costs, which are somewhat high, since the terminal is sent from the United States
In addition to the cost of shipping, users will have to deal with customs payments, which can make the price of a terminal that is about to turn one year on the market even more expensive. Essential offers us three colors: Pure White and Black Moon are available for $ 499 plus shipping costs. While the color Stellar Gray is available for $ 599 on the Essential website. If we want accessories such as the camera, we will have to go through the box again
Essential Phone has been the first Non-Google phone to receive Android 8.1, an update that arrived after skipping Android 8.0, in a movement that although initially despaired its users by not being able to enjoy Oreo quickly, it has been a movement that the company has been able to reward by currently offering Android 8.1 in its only terminal, still the only manufacturer that does it.
The Essential Phone, offers us a processor Snapdragon 835 accompanied by 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage, a storage that we cannot expand using a micro SD card. In addition, it is neither waterproof nor does it offer a headphone jack connection. But if these aspects do not matter much to you, for about 500 euros to change you can have a fantastic terminal.
