What's the history of Essential PH-1, and what is it like to use this 2017 device today?

Austin Evans and Myke Hurley host The Test Drivers, a technology podcast from Relay that operates on a simple but compelling principle: every piece of tech has a story, and its real worth is found in daily use. They're less interested in sterile spec sheets and more in how gadgets and software actually fit into your life, whether they're brand-new releases or forgotten relics. You'll hear them take apart the latest smartphone with the same curiosity they apply to a decade-old laptop pulled from a clearance shelf. The conversations are grounded and practical, focusing on what it's like to live with technology as a tool, for work or for play. This isn't about declaring winners and losers in the abstract; it's about putting tech through its paces in the real world to see what holds up. Each episode feels like a deep dive with two knowledgeable friends who aren't afraid to be genuinely excited or thoroughly critical. Tuning into this podcast means joining a thoughtful, long-form examination of the devices and platforms that shape our days, all delivered with a blend of expertise and relatable enthusiasm.
