it's mostly stock so it's not totally fuckedd

aren't those kinda the same stats as mi6

essential is getting a lot of software updates, including camera fixes because thecamera was pretty shit on release

yes

it's the same as mi6

also, essential still isn't sold in yurop, right

wait or did mi6 have 6 gigs of ram

But does it run CyanogenMod

>carcinogenmod

it's lineageos now

@Cole nah, you can import using amazon
@Maxumym on some models
@spaqin this isn't a oneplus or shit pajeetphone

Ikno Cole

@Maxumym I think the gold model with 256gb internal storage had 6gb

Still, unofficial support is what makes or breaks a phone for me

Because always official support is shit

not bad

@spaqin it gets updates as fast as pixel, oreo coming soon

so don't say that straight out of the door

Essential: I’m still seeing slowdowns throughout a day, where I have to clear all running apps from the app switcher, plus I experienced at least one full freeze-up that required a reboot over the weekend. Again, these issues have been improved upon, but they are still present a couple of months later.

fuck this lmao

Lets discuss that in two years

835 and 4GB ram and even after updates it stutters

trash phone

wtf

Maybe they are retarded

once it drops to $300 or lower imma snap one up fast af

I’d also point out that on the white Essential Phone I have here, I thought the fingerprint reader died on it after having been out of the box for all of 10 hours. I say that because the fingerprint reader just stopped working and all software related to it disappeared from the phone, almost as if it no longer registered the component. After talking with support, they told me that this was a known bug from the latest software build and that they are working on a fix. While that’s great that Essential is already working on a fix, we’re talking about the fingerprint reader completely dying after a software update and a fix potentially weeks away. That’s kind of bad.

LOL

@Cole they fixed it today, no joke

oh

well at least the fixing is fast

but at this point I don't see the essential company lasting too long

they'll end up like Nextbit

except nextbit was at least successful at the start

the battleborn of phones

if they end up like nextbut it's good for consumers like us

cause we get cheap high-power devices

and fuck me it looks nice

sure

I just hope there's a dev community

it'll make all the iphone fags at my school ask 'what device is that' like back when I had the OnePlus One
