      I'm fully aware of the movie but it seems as if you are not. You did not quote the line in its entirety, so it seems that you are somewhat premature in your assumption about my familiarity with the film.

      People from all over the world visit this site because generally we all share one thing in common, a love of phones and technology and gsmarena provides us a great resource of info.

      The website also hosts a comment section where each of can share our opinion....... all of us :) no matter in the world that you come from.

      I have no idea about the poster that you replied to, but I do know that not everyone's first language is English. Yes, sometimes you will struggle to understand a post, but overall I can more often than not figure it.

      Nobody is perfect, even people that speak English are not masters of the language, including myself.

      I, like many are not here to participate in an English test is what I'm saying. I'm here to take part in discussion and be open to others opinion.

      Do you know anything about the poster?

      How do you think your original post, could of been inturpeted?

      How would you feel if you found out that they took your comments to heart, or if the person was disabled and this led to them having challenges trying to use a keyboard?

        And i guess you're not into movies aswell because pulp fiction is rather a well known movie.

          They failed to deliver in the beginning. If you want a solid start, which is especially needed as a newcomer, then make sure your basic features work smooth as they are expected to. And one of their biggest mistake was their camera (app). The quality was worse than some midrange phones. And that's quite not acceptable for an expensive phone that claims to be solid and pure.
          What a pity that reputation damages like this prevent that brand and phone from a bigger success.

            Come on Essential, make it 200 dollars before Christmas and people will buy like hotcakes!

My initial thought was that you were just taking a cheap shot at someone but forgive me as I didn't realise that we had a comedian joining the discussion.

              I will try to laugh next time.

                    right price for this device should have been 400 dollars, it would have sold like hot cakes, for an entry level company with nothing Essential at all.... and a hefty price tag not a good bargain.......

                              Took them 3 months to reach that number from September. Slowest sales I have ever seen from an overhyped company. I remember when Oneplus One was introduced back in 2014, sold a million phone in a year, and that with limited invite only. Their initial target was 50,000 units only which is what Essential achieve only now. Lol. Im interested to see how many Razer will sell.

                                  Considering that it lacks the ESSENTIAL features like a headphone jack, removable storage and battery, it's no wonder that it sold rather poorly. If they sold it like $300 or less, it probably would have sold better.

                                        New player, high price, LCD screen, camera issues. Im surprised that they even sold 50,000. But then this phone was getting lots of discount in last month so that probably helped.
