I've got at least bi-monthly updates since purchase. Received July, Aug, and currently am on the Oct1 build. Standard unlocked G7....not the Prime Version.

The Essential Phone dongle works very well. Still can find them on Amazon.

Yup. Essential phone. On time again from the "dead" company.

So Essential continues to produce. Jan 7 update

My Sprint PH-1 gets excellent 2g CDMA and LTE reception on Sprint. For LTE I'm primarily on band 41 near my apartment and I'm usually around 55 dbz (2g) and around 80 dbz (LTE Band 41).

The Essential Phone PH-1 is now certified for the MVNO Google FI (formerly known as Project FI), although full network switching is not guaranteed. What is, is access to at a minimum T-mobile's network, and add'l international options and perks by Google. It personally doesn't work for me as...

On Pace for 11 hours full run down, Screen on time. Incredible from a relatively average battery size.

Is anyone having volume issues with the bottom speaker in Oreo? The volume level for me has dropped off considerably. It's still very clear, but it used to be very loud, now it isn't. I've noticed no difference with the top speaker. Trying to figure out if this is hardware or software. But it...

United States, Minnesota. Got the update a week ago, but I always wait a few days to install just in case there is a serious bug that is reported. It's the March security update, plus bug fixes for EMUI.
