Don't bother. Nexus 6P camera is still one of the best even till today. Essential's camera can't even match OP5, let alone N6P.

Damn, now leaning towards op5t le. Guess I'll wait for actual reviews of op5t.

I need a decent camera and selfie camera.

Think essential phone may even be cheaper on black Friday...

Works fine for mine leh. Which version did u install. Make sure you don’t install the oreo version one. Stick to the older 7.1.1 version. Yah improved but still no panorama . For me that’s unacceptable
