About Telstra Essential Pro

The Telstra Essential Pro presents a compact yet functional handset, measuring roughly 70.6 mm wide, 146.3 mm tall and just under 9.6 mm thick while tipping the scales at about 160 grams. Its front is dominated by a 5.45‑inch IPS LCD panel that delivers a modest 720 by 1440‑pixel resolution, offering clear visuals for everyday tasks without pushing the limits of pixel density. Encased in a simple, no‑frills chassis, the device feels solid in the hand and is designed for straightforward, single‑SIM use.

Under the surface, the phone runs Google Android 9.0 Pie, providing access to the full suite of Google services and apps while keeping the software experience relatively light. It is equipped with 2 gigabytes of RAM, which should handle basic multitasking and standard applications adequately, and a 2600 mAh battery that aims to keep the device powered through a typical day of moderate usage. Together, these specifications position the Telstra Essential Pro as an entry‑level option focused on essential functionality and everyday reliability.
