Marshall London Smartphone First Look

The Marshall London Smartphone: A Unique Music-Focused Device

It's Josh Magar from Android Authority, and we're taking a look at a brand new smartphone that you may not have on your radar. The Marshall London is an all-new smartphone that was just launched about a week ago, and it looks really awesome already. If you know anything about Marshall's amps and speakers, you'll recognize the leather backing and design on this phone. It's a great look that feels really nice to the touch.

What's great about this phone is that even though it may have some mid-range specifications underneath, we do have a few features that make it stand out. One of the most notable features is the removable cover. This allows you to easily access and replace the battery, which looks like an awesome feature for music lovers. Additionally, there's a microSD card slot, so you can expand your storage capacity as needed.

The phone also features an 8-megapixel camera on the back, as well as a front-facing camera. But what really sets this phone apart is its dual front-facing speakers. These speakers provide some really great sound quality, and we've had a chance to try them out already in our testing. While we can't hear the actual audio in the room right now, we can tell that they're going to be a major part of this phone's appeal.

In terms of design, the phone has a 4.7-inch display at a 720p resolution. It's not a high-end device by any means, but it gets the job done. The focus on music is evident in the phone's design and features, with a dedicated sound card backed by Serious Logic (also known as Wolfson). This setup allows for some really advanced audio capabilities, including access to local music, SoundCloud, Spotify, and more.

When you open up the music app, you'll have access to a range of features that make it easy to enjoy your favorite tunes. You can pick between different music sources, save playlists, and even record new tracks. The app also includes an equalizer, which allows you to customize the sound quality to your liking. And if you're using two headphones at once, you'll have access to a volume rocker with two separate controls – one for each headphone.

One thing to note is that this phone isn't currently available in America, but it's looking like it will be soon. For now, it's only available in Europe, particularly in the UK. We're really excited about this device because it offers something unique and special – a focus on music that sets it apart from other smartphones.

Overall, the Marshall London is a great example of a smartphone that understands its target audience. It may not be the best all-around device, but for music lovers who want to enjoy their favorite tunes in style, this phone is definitely worth considering. With its unique design, advanced audio capabilities, and dedicated music app, it's shaping up to be an amazing addition to our phones.
