Hold up, so on top of no headphone jack the phone isn't even waterproof? ... I thought that was like the entire point of getting rid of the thing.

hardware impressions.
so its wide phone while everyone else is going tall. Squarish design. Basically what I assume sony will move to... if they tried.

There's been tons of phones with 3.5mm jacks that are waterproof.
Oh, I thought I heard the headphone jack was an issue when it came to waterproofing. Still crazy it doesn't have it at such a premium price.

He mentioned something about wireless RF. Everyone in the Android OT knows where I'm headed next. Does the possibility exist for wireless RF to be used to control appliances?
This phone looks like a skinny G6 with Mi6 camera placement.
I am having a damn hard time getting over them bastardizing the display. For $700 I want a full display but maybe I'll get used to this in time.
The success of the Galaxy line is about all the hope there is for the future of 3.5mm.Nope, last few Samsung S phones are waterproof and have jacks.
LG v line will have them for at least a bit longer. Maybe.The success of the Galaxy line is about all the hope there is for the future of 3.5mm.
And he would be wrong.Even Android co-founder agree 3.5mm jack is not needed now.

That was fast: they raised $300M, and at a valuation between $900M and $1 billion.

This should do well.

Where is this? Company went silent.
CNET couldn't get a response from them either:It was supposed to ship by June and we haven't heard a peep from them since announcing it, not even on their blog.

When they say squarish, they're referring to the contours of the phone. Samsung has a curved style to their latest flagship and the Essential has sharp edges.So iVerge can't tell the difference between a square and a rectangle? It looks nothing squarish at all.
Damn nice looking phone though.

This thread hasn't gotten much love but in the context of the Pixel 2 being what it is I think this phone should probably get a second look from those who previously wrote it off.
and what would that be? I just saw a rumor that the larger Pixel 2 is going to be very similar looking to the S8.
Software guys can be pretty dumb about hardware.

I thought Pixel 1 was rated as one of the best cameras on a phone? or does the dual lens thing matter for some other reason?
Dumb squeeze gimmick
Wait did they just copy an HTC phone again?
Fuck, no 3.5mm jack, no buy.
But that Ocean Depths color is too damn good.
No 3.5mm, no buy
This. Is. Not. Hard.
