Even though the Essential Phone lacks some of the bells and whistles of its premium-priced competitors-there isn’t an always-on display and a portrait mode camera isn’t yet available despite the dual-lens setup-the device still ticks off enough boxes to make it an excellent phone, especially in light of its new $499 price.

The phone ships with mostly a pure Android experience, and, unlike many other Android phones in this space, is devoid of the bloatware that hogs memory and slows down the phone over time. Additionally, the Essential Phone also comes with POGO pins on the back, which is used to magnetically attach modular accessories that augment the features of the phone. Dual cameras and a center-mounted fingerprint scanner are found on the rear of the devices. The Essential Phone has a respectable battery life. On the bottom, there is a USB Type-C port that accepts fast charging-wireless charging isn’t built into this phone-along with a mono loud speaker, nano SIM tray and a microphone opening. While the phone isn’t waterproof, it can survive a splash thanks to the IP54 rating for water and dust resistance. The phone has a very modern appearance with straight edges and slightly curved corners. The luxuriously crafted hardware is a marvel to behold and hold. If the difference in size and design don’t mean much to you, the Pixel 2 is probably the one you want to pick up.īuilt out of a ceramic back and titanium sides, Android founder Andy Rubin’s Essential startup’s eponymously named smartphone gets top billing in craftsmanship, eschewing the pedestrian aluminum and glass components on most modern flagships. The thing to consider is that the Pixel 2 XL costs two hundred more dollars and doesn’t add any significant feature or piece of technology. Because the Pixel 2 XL has much smaller bezels and a 76 percent screen-to-body ratio, the difference in sizes isn’t quite as dramatic as you might think. The size of the display doesn’t tell the whole story in the sizing department though. Of the two, the Pixel is smaller, more affordable, and based on previous year’s designs. With the sequel phones, they really do feel like a a direct answer to Apple’s big iPhone 8 and iPhone X announcements in September. In a market of hit-or-miss phones from Asian manufacturers and a host of inexpensive alternatives, a true premium Android phone was a welcome addition to the fold. The original Pixel and Pixel XL were just what the Android market needed back at the tail-end of 2016. The Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL are Google’s two newest high-end smartphones, built and designed from the ground-up by Google itself.

With all the impressive specs of the iPhone X comes an impressive price tag: $999 for the 64GB. More enhancements include an even better camera than the iPhone 8’s, even longer battery life, even faster processors, and last but not least, Animojis. To top it all off, Apple introduced FaceID to overshadow the already convenient TouchID, featuring a depth-sensing front camera that detects the user’s face to unlock the phone. The edge-to-edge display also means the X will not have a home button, creating swipe features to replace all the button’s capabilities. To one-up the new retina display of the iPhone 8, the iPhone X will have a super retina display, featuring an OLED display that means higher resolutions, more pixels, the works.
First and foremost, the most striking characteristic of the oh-so-exclusive iPhone X (pronounced “ten”) is the fact that its display spans the entire front of the phone.
