Nope, have this on my htc 10, dropped a few times and no cracks on either. However it must be said that I did not dropped my phone on hard concrete like roads or pavement. I also have a slim tpu case on.

For me i'll stick with Essential. Pocophone probably will win in performance. Like the speed, responsiveness, battery life, camera maybe? But I prefer the essential build, design, and size. Software experience and software update speed Essential phone wins also. The performance is already good enough for my needs, and NFC is a deal breaker for me. haha. Also, i save S$100. :s13:

I've been mostly satisfied with the camera too. not at Pixel level la, but still usable. Kinda like the feel of the monochrome sensor too. haha. Maybe when the prices of the pocophone drops even further or used sets will be more worth it.

It's about the same as most SD835 phones with a 30xxmAh battery really. I've been using it and 1 day of use with over 5 hours of screen on time is easily achievable. Ymmv depending on your usage of course. But it's not bad to me.

I also hate SingPost for their registered mail. There were a few times whereby I'm in office but yet the registered mail still missed, end up I had to take the time (and bus fare) to Alexandar Post Office to retrieve the missed parcel...

I think you can call SingPost to check on your parcel, it may be already out for delivery, the tracking was not updated timely.
