Let’s take a quick look at what is hiding behind the awe-inspiring hood of the Nothing Phone (1):
- 6.5” AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate
- Running off the Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G+
- 8GB of RAM
- 128GB of internal storage
- 4500 mAh battery enabled for 33W fast charging or 15W wireless charging
- Dual camera array consisting of:
○ 50MP main camera
○ 50MP ultra wide - 16MP front-facing camera
- NFC enabled
So what can you expect from the Nothing Phone (1) with such parameters? An all-around solid performer that is of reasonable shape and size. Its screen will certainly impress you, especially for this price range. Oh, and you won’t have to worry about battery life, even with those prominently featured 900 LEDs.But let’s be honest, the real star of the show is that design on the back. Most people truly underestimate the delicate design that goes into crafting a smartphone that can look like this. But the glyph — the coined term for the shape that lights up on the phone’s back — does more than just glow to provide a retro futuristic aesthetic.
The glyph can serve you in day to day use through strobing as per the dictation of the pre-baked ringtones and melodies, even if your phone is on silent. The haptics go along with the pulsation as well, which gives the entire system a sophisticated feel. The LEDs can function as an advanced photo flash or flashlight too.
The Nothing Phone (1) is a suitable choice for anyone, who is looking for a phone that can mean something. Furthermore, it is a more-than-adequate daily driver that can serve you diligently for its four years of software updates.
