Well, it's time for one of my more pessimistic posts.
See, Essential has a solid product, but I feel that they may be falling into the same trap that plagued YotaPhone and Blackphone.
I know Essential's goal isn't about the bottom line, but at the same time, it still has to shift some units to be considered a success.
I honestly really want Essential to succeed not only because Andy Rubin's at the helm but also because many other startups have failed in the same spot and I don't want Essential to be just another one running headfirst into that situation.
But recent events like the delays, lack of communication along with the departure of 2 executives have made my optimism cloudier and cloudier by every second.
What do you guys think?
