Essential phone (PH-1) hasn't started shipping yet

Himanshu, 10 July 2017

The Essential PH-1 was officially unveiled back in May this year. Soon thereafter, Andy Rubin - Android co-creator and also the man behind the phone - said they plan to to ship out reservations "within 30 days."

That deadline ended more than a week ago, and shipments for the $700 handset haven't started yet.

What's more, the company isn't even replying to media queries on the reason behind the delay. If you are one of those who pre-ordered the device, the only thing you can do currently is wait. Needless to say, we'll provide an update as an when we get to know more on the matter.

At that price you can forget the "Freedom" in the name and replace it with "debt"..
