Price has risen a bit as each supplier runs out of phones.
First full day typical usage and it looks like I can easily get 2 days on one charge. The screen responds crisply to taps, much much better than the Nokia which is a bit vague and lags slightly.
I've only taken one picture but the camera worked. Reviewers say it has largely been fixed, but will never be in the Pixel of iPhone X class. I don't care since all I take are bad Instamatic type snapshots anyway. Again, it's better than the Nokia's camera which freezes on my sometimes, probably because I don't know how to use it.
Downside: Essential includes a lot of ringtones and notification tones. They are serviceable but reminiscent of banging on pipes or tin cans clacking together.
I like this enough I'll actually pair it to my car.
