It seems I have a bad habit, I don't even always upgrade but I almost always buy and sell used:
Nexus One, HTC G2, Samsung Note 1, HTC One X, Galaxy S4, LG G2, HTC 10, Nexus 6P, Essential PH1, Pixel 2XL, iPhone 11, Asus ROG 2, Pixel 3a, Galaxy Note 10+ (current).
I owned the PH-1. It was a pretty good phone with some significant weaknesses as well as an essentially (hah) useless gimmick. If not for Essential's founder's personal problems sinking the company, the PH-2 could have been very interesting.
With that said, I'm not sure what this phone could...
I've been switching between caseless and cased, but I find that curved glass really ruins the experience without a case. There always seems to be a situation where palm rejection doesn't quite work perfectly, rare but just often enough to be annoying.
How are those of you with the Pro finding...
Yeah, people hate when I point this out but Google has been playing catch up to Samsung's design language ever since One UI. I'm not actually a huge fan of One UI but A12 clearly borrows a lot from it and if even "stock Android" is going all-in space wasting, then the more polished One UI is...
I had been looking at the 5 III and this 1 III but the carriers in Canada won't enable VoLTE so I had to drop the idea.
It's a shame because despite the weirdly long aspect ratio, the phones have all the features I want.
I like the external audio section near the end because it gives you a very good comparison of what the phones sounds like in comparison to the S21 and iPhone (this reviewer is an audio engineer). Have your headphones on.
