Analysts: Essential sold only 5,000 phones
The Essential phone drew much attention from geeks the moment it was announced. There's a singular reason for that - it's made by a startup founded by Andy Rubin, often called the father of Android. And not just any startup, a $1.2 billion startup. So, how many phones has Essential sold since sales went live on September 9? BayStreet Research estimates that number is 5,000. Five thousand phones in the hands of consumers is not a huge number. Despite a troubled launch, the OnePlus One quickly reached 500,000 sales (Essential experienced a delay as well). To be fair, the One was...

October 17 will be a busy day for ZTE's brands - nubia is launching a new device and so is Axon.

Google Pixel 2 specs leak
You have to give it to Google - this was a great misdirect. "No 3.5mm headphone jack". That sucks, but how about no SIM card slot? According to rumored info, the Pixel 2 will have an embedded SIM card so you switch carriers without having to switch SIM cards. Yes, that's the same setup as the new Apple Watch. But check out the carrier support for the watch. We're sure the new Pixels will work great with Google Fi, but that's of little comfort for Europeans. At any rate, this info could be wrong or there still might be an old-school SIM slot. Moving on, both the Pixel 2 and Pixel...
