New Phone, Who Dis?
A new Android phone hits the market in a couple of weeks. Normally that’s unexciting news—Android phones are basically always raining from the sky. But this is the Essential phone, the first consumer product from the company co-founded by Andy Rubin, the man largely responsible for the Android operating system. So yeah, Essential’s debut hardware is a big deal. David Pierce has been covering Essential for months, and he tells us what to watch for in this sexy new handset offering.
Some notes: David’s review of the Essential phone. Brendan Nystedt writes about the snap-on 360 camera accessory. Also see David’s deep dive into the phone’s development, and his profile of Andy Rubin where they discuss Ambient OS, as well as Essential’s larger ambitions. Recommendations this week: the Back to the Roots aquaponics fish tank, the BioLite PowerLight Mini, and Logan Lucky.
