Andy Rubin’s Essential PH-1 is now heading out to customers. The company confirmed on Twitter this afternoon that units had begun shipping and customers could expect to receive tracking information shortly. Early buyers have been waiting since May to get their devices.

Some Essential PH-1 units recently went out to members of the media, which indicated the phone was close to shipping. Pre-registered customers were asked last week to finalize their payment and shipping information.
The device costs $699 unlocked and is also being sold through Sprint in the US.
