    Essential Phone in Pure White – 128 GB Unlocked Titanium and Ceramic phone with Edge-to-Edge Display

    • Great price
    • Good price
    • This is a really nice phone at a decent price.
    • Now that the price is right it can't be beat.
    • All in all, this phone is such an amazing device for such an amazing price
    • Top end phone and good price as a Prime Day special made it a no brainer
    • Too many bugs, Lower its price only in few months for half... doesn't make any sense for me..
    • Price is great
    • Top notch performance at a great price.
    • Speaking of cameras, something we have not taken advantage of yet is the ability to equip the Essential with accessories like the Essential 360 Camera with Black Pill Case that allows you to record "360 videos and photos" that "can be shared and viewed on Facebook, youtube, and Google photos."It's pretty cool, with a hefty $200 price tag, but these accessories are forward-compatible, meaning they can be used on future Essential devices, which is a great selling point given the investment
    • Great price and quality
    • Pure Android, beautiful hardware, and great specs all at a fantastic price (on sale)
    • I believe now is a chance if Amazon and Essential join forces for competitive prices and huge market share
    • Great phone, great price.
    • it's great for a device on that price tag (maybe unbeatable)
    • I was so excited about purchasing this phone and so optimistic about the memory and features offered at a more competitive price than an S8 or S9.
    • If I could go back in time, I would of waited awhile because it seems like the price of the phone will drop again.
    • Great phone, barring a few minor glitches..can't beat the price and the 4k whic I barely use camera works great too ..
    • Plus the price didn't drain my wallet
    • The price has dropped $200 since I bought it, and since Amazon does not price match after shipping, I will have to return this phone in order to buy it at a better price
    • I would definitely recommend that the Essential Phone be on your short list of midrange priced phones with a lot to offer at a very attractive price.
    • I was impressed by the amount of space offered on such a reasonably priced device, but the poor camera/speakers/display aren't worth it to me
    • Bought this after the initial price drop to $500 (note: have been using this as my daily driver smartphone for over half a year now) and that was already a good price, but when it goes for $300 or $250--that is an absolute steal!The camera quality is pretty decent, definitely not as bad as the initial complaints, and for casual use I haven't had any problems with picture quality
    • The price of this phone was better than the pixel
    • For the incredible price I got it, I really think this is a excellent phone, even for $500, I think the lowered price really makes up for the mistakes made by Essential in the first place
    • The price was great
    • Price also great.
    • The Good:Great price point for the hardware and metal bodyGreat if you don't like the huge size most flagship phones are going withMetal body feels much more solid than plastic phonesComes with a USB-C to headphone jack adapterThe sleek no frills design really appealed to meThe Meh:The stock camera is all sorts of ok considering it's specs.
    • Great product greats service and great price no more to be said but thanks alot
    • But $500 is still a great price for such a high quality product
    • Personally I feel the $500 price is reasonable and should have been the release price and then successive models you could gradually add features and increase the price
    • Beautiful phone (actually stunning) at a great price
    • It's on par with the s9 at a nice price reduction, and exponentially better than the iPhone X but my old phone from 4 years ago was better than the iPhone X so that's not saying much
    • I was able to get them for under $340 each which seemed to be a fantastic price at the time (recently checked and the phone was about $500 and is currently $380).
    • For anyone who wants a well-built phone, without all the BS, for a great price, this is your phone
    • Better build quality, better resolution, low price
    • amazing price for ep1,this phone is great
    • AMAZING PHONE FOR A CHEAP PRICE!
    • Pros: Excellent display*, good price when on sale, solid specs, clean and reasonably fast Android Pie, Unlocked and works for most carriers, fingerprint reader, very fast and ample storage, certified for MQA on Tidal (more about that later)
    • I got this phone on Prime Day at a great price
    • You may be able to snatch some good phones for this or better price, but still this phone has the x factor to it...
    • If $500 is too much for you to spend on a phone, and you live in the US, Sprint is currently offering the device for a great price ($25 down and $5 a month for an 18 month flex lease) if you want this phone but aren't sure you want to buy the device outright, and right now, they have a promotion offering the 360 degree camera free with a lease or purchase
    • Amazing price and phone
    • fantastic price at 399 with top s835 flagship quality
    • Having it listed at such a modest price I knew I couldn't pass this up and for sure don't regret it
    • Great phone, great price
    • Best design, crisp functionality and incredible price.
    • weightHowever, the ultra fast Android update, the quality of build and amazing price way overrides the shortcomings
    • Affordable price with $
    • The Good:Great price point for the hardware and metal bodyGreat if you don't like the huge size most flagship phones are going withMetal body feels much more solid than plastic phonesComes with a USB-C to headphone jack adapterThe sleek no frills design really appealed to meThe Meh:The stock camera is all sorts of ok considering it's specs.

    • The best phone I've owned, and at an affordable price
    • Incredible phone, incredible price at $450
    • This phone is at a great price point for what You're
    • Price was less the issue than was quality
    • So while I paid a very reasonable price it feels like a unique and high quality device
    • Pros: price, build quality (ceramic and titanium), speed, size, front camera, button placement and feel, display quality/resolution, OS (stock android), and usability.
    • nice phone in reasonable price
    • After researching and trying to figure out which phone to buy, this guy was put on sale at an unbeatable price!
    • I think that it's a great price for the specs that it has and the build quality of the phone
    • I bought this on Prime day so it was only 250 which is a great price
    • This really is an excellent phone, especially priced at $500
    • So its nice to get a great phone, with vanilla android and a great price again.
    • Cheap price but powerful performence.
    • With the recent price drop it should be a strong contender for everyone who is looking for an Android phone that offers great specs at an affordable price.
    • but the price was steep for an unknown
    • The price makes this phone worth it
    • Updates have really made this a solid choice for enthusiasts who want a beautiful piece of hardware, with improving software, and a reasonable price!
    • Great phone - great price
    • Excellent product and price.
    • For only 325$, this the best quality/price phone out there
    • Elegant design and android build at the right price
    • The price was right but VERY disappointed in thephotos category
    • Especially the affordable price pleases
    • It checks off the boxes I care about:-minimal bezels-stock android (no bloatware)-premium materials-beautiful-all day battery-fast and accurate fingerprint sensor-price is right at $499-built in storage (128 GB)There are some drawbacks, but these are less important to me:-stock camera app (although much better with the google camera app)-not waterproof
    • I would like to begin this review saying that the essential phone is terrible, but the price may be tempting
    • I was eyeing the Pixel 2, but I didn't like the price - so I went with this instead
    • Yes, Essential as a company has an uncertain future, but if you want a really great phone at a really great price with the latest Android OS, and the following upgrade promised
    • It's not a flagship phone, but a great high end phone for a great price
    • Worth the price, especially after all the upgrades
    • Screen is gorgeous, price is right, and it is pure Android which you can't beat.
    • Great phone with a great price
    • Excellent phone, Great Price
    • Great phone for a great price
    • Have realistic expectations and find the device at a good price and you might just be pleasantly surprised by how good it really is
    • *EDIT CONCLUDED***At the current price point, current developer support, and
    • great price.
    • And at the current price point gives a common person the chance to experience a good product at a fair price
    • The price was amazing, so I definitely couldn't pass up just trying out the phone to see if it'd be an upgrade to my S7.I gotta say, this was by far one of the best god damned deals I've gotten
    • I purchased this phone on PRIME day at what I thought was a nice price
    • amazing phone for amazing price
    • Great quality and spec with a cheap price
    • I still have interest in the phone but lots uncertain reviews and price still held me at
    • get this phone, it's nicely priced and it's still getting updates.
    • Don't know why), and it just has an amazing price for such a high quality phone
    • The price was definitely right too, I think right now this phone is well priced at $400-450.
    • Great price as well.
    • On the positive I adore how simple this phone is
    • The camera is good enough, not as good as the s7 edge I
    • I really liked this phone its worked great for 2 weeks now the screen doesn't turn on
    • I didn't like the small body, though, as I like the way my Nexus fits in my hands
    • Crosschecked the USB-C to UCB-C cable and (AUT) power adapter, all working fine
    • They include a great charger and USB-C to headphone cable
    • I do wish it had a dedicated headphone jack but the included USB-C adapter works well enough and seems to be of high quality
    • 845 chipset(c) Worst complaint is on the lack of headphone.
    • My Bose QC25 headphones do not work properly with the USB-C/3.5mm adapter
    • No headphone jack (I love USB-C)
    • Every time the phone is plugged in to the charger, any charger, I have several different usb-c chargers, slow, fast, standard usb, doesn't matter, it will not charge
