Where can I get one if those f&f discount codes? Been interested in this phone for awhile.

If you bought an Essential phone before Oct 22, then you'll need to register on Essential website and they'll send you a $200 gift card applicable towards another phone/360 camera on Essential.com

Trading coupon codes or asking for them here is against forum rules, so please refrain from it.

I don't they may be working super hard to get out the new colors before holiday season is over. New colors are one way to spike up interest so wouldn't be surprised if we see the new colors before Dec 15.

My third black PH-1 just got delivered. Hopefully Stellar Grey happens soon. At this price it's easy to collect them all.

They're tightening up QC. This one is assembled the best of any I've had so far.

Could you elaborate?

Seams are tighter and edge transitions are seamless, speaker mesh is perfect... overall it just feels better. It's hard to qualify but after four phones this one looks and feels like it's assembled the best of any I've had.

What are you checking on speaker mesh? I received my white one just now and comparing with my white one from Amazon not seeing much difference.

My phone from Best Buy looks to have been an earlier build and the mesh wasn't applied as well. I'm sure all of the later phones are fine. My latest SN/IMEI is way higher than the one from BB.

My Incipio clear case delivered today as well... Nice timing. Liking the case, nice grip while showing off the phone. Only thing I don't like is the Incipio logo. Hate it when case makers put big logos on back.

Nice case it's soooo hard to find a case for this phone.

Broke down and ordered a White one from Essential. I figure for $500 why not?

Guys,

While Essential.com shipping policy states that they ship within 1 business day and deliver within 2-3 business days, it seems like with the recent surge in orders they are delayed quite a bit.

I placed an order for a white phone on 10/28 and it still hasn't shipped. I emailed their customer care and received a response within few hours (they always respond within few hours and haven't ignored my emails so far, which is great):

"We have checked the status of your order and confirm that it will be shipped soon and should be received within the next 7-10 business days.

You will be receiving an email shortly with your shipping tracking number. We have been working diligently to process all orders as quickly as possible."

I can't really say if they have no stock left for the white phone and are waiting for new units to arrive or if they really got so many orders that their shipping department is still processing them.

Is there anyone who received their phone this week or has a phone in transit, which they ordered on Essential.com later last week?

The white and green look really nice in pictures. I wondered how they look in person.

I ordered My Pure White Essential phone on November 1st, I got a tracking number the next day and it will be delivered on Monday or Tuesday by FedEx.

If it wasn't for the weekend, I would have gotten it within 5 days of placing my order.

That's really fast considering its shipping from another country.

I ordered Thursday and mine still shows as processing. I doubt they are still doing next day shipping as that would have had mine out their doors on Friday..

Mine shipped on the next business day after ordering. They don't update the website right away. Chances are yours will ship Monday if it hasn't already gone out.

Yeah I'm not sweating it.. The delay might actually help me since I found a better price at Best Buy anyways..

Lovely wallpaper there. Cheers.

I got my white one last week. No carrier yet, I'll probably be using US Mobile (verizon mvno) sim. I'm still selecting the apps to put on it to make it behave like I need it. Also, ordered 2 different protectors (skins), screen films, extra chargers, and a USB3 cable. Plan on tossing my Galaxy S4 (off contract) soon as I get my new sim and try it and make sure mobile data behaves like I need it to. I may or may not put a new verizon sim in the phone. I also may or may not move to Germany, in which case of course I say byebye to Verizon for about 5 years.
I'm interested in hearing from others who have the PH1 what they're doing to their PH1's, accessories they're using, etc.

My Incipio case should be here today or tomorrow. I keep dropping mine b/c it's so slippery and my hands are dry from working with wire & cabling.
What may I ask is producing the wrinkle effect on your picture of the front?
