In the super vague post, Rubin, who left Google several years ago, wrote he was "eager to get it in more people's hands."

In a Bloomberg profile of Essential from January, the new smartphone was described as a "high-end smartphone with a large edge-to-edge screen that lacks a surrounding bezel." Looks like that bezel-less and big screen concept will be reality, based on the photographic evidence.
