Nothing Phone (1) full review

Waste of money! Had it a day and first impressions aren't great. The UI interface is awful and looks so cheap especially the pull down menu. It is fast and snappy but battery life is average, the nothing features are just boring and forgettable including the lights at the back even with versión 2. Generally You have your phone face up so it's pointless. I hate this phone. Haven't tested camera yet but feeling like I need to go back to my old galaxy A71!

I never thought I’d say this but nothing is actually good

"Gallery to show of your NFTs" Aaaaaaand I'm out...

If only the selfie camera were in the middle 😅

In the USA u can only get the Nothing Phone 1 to work with T-Mobile but with very limited network support in select area's only because it's the only compatible provider in the USA that has any frequencies at all that the Nothing Phone 1 will work with.

T-Mobile's cellular bands are:

4G LTE:
n2, n4, n5, n12, n41, n66, n71
5G:
n25, n41, n71, n261, n258, n260

The Nothing Phone 1 only Supports T-Mobile's:

4G LTE:
n2, n4, n5, n12, n41, n66
5G:
n41

The Nothing Phone 1 does not support T-Mobile's:

4G LTE:
n71
5G:
n25, n71, n261, n258, n260

The Nothing Phone 1 needs to support all of T-Mobile's frequencies in order to have nationwide 4G LTE & 5G coverage. Otherwise, the Nothing Phone 1 will only work in select T-Mobile coverage area's only.

Excessive lighting. it should be reduced in next in nothing phone 2

Is it jus me....
But i would really love if you'd be giving us links of the games you show in these videos 😁

waiting for nothing phone 2 😁

Not the android system

Tks for the info regarding the audio output, you just saved me money. 🎩

So after 6 months , did they fix the audio quality playing via Bluetooth or still the same?

Is camera is good quality?? Can some one help me

No charger in the box? What. That is unacceptable in 2023.

I was not able to recreate the frequency response problem mentioned with either wired or wireless connection (came here from the article)

Wait did I understand that it doesn't come with a charger and I have to buy this separately? Think I'm going to opt for the Honor 70.

wowowow

bought the phone and i'm happy with it. got it for a good price (29k INR for 256/8gb model ~$380), looks and feels premium. thought it's not perfect (facing a couple of bugs) it's definitely worth the price. all the issues i have can simply be fixed over software updates.
the glyph interface might not be too usable for some people but it can act as music visualiser (it's a hidden features) and i do like to see it whenever i play music. for calls and all? yeah just a gimmick but no complaints :)
the only alternative for me was a pixel 6a and it didn't have wireless charging and a high refresh rate. pretty useful features imo.
go for it!

maybe xiaomi mi 12X is better for this price?

I honestly don't know how I feel about this phone I like the lights but outside of that it's just a midrange phone in a vacuum it would be good if phones like the pixel 6a didn't exist

I had a brief hands on with this phone in the store, and it's very smooth. If Nothing can release another model without the gimmicky back LED lights, and slightly more compact with a lower price, I will seriously consider switching to this.

the phone is very nice but there are software problems !!! sometimes notification heats don't come on. it hangs, it works again when I close the background apps. sometimes the web browser is also unstable. it freezes. Bought from Turkey I love this phone but so far I've only found two problems. turn it upside down and leave it on the table, notification lights sometimes don't come on and there is a web browser instability problem

the black one looks great ngl

The only thing they messed up with is the processor.

Has the audio been fixed?

Can anyone please tell which horse game he was playing? 🤔

Thanks for the review. I'm one of those people who prefers audio quality over everything else and this review helped me a lot

I tried this phone on store display. Im in love with the smoothness of the ui. For some reason, it feels faster than iphones on display. One thing i find kinda irritating is that you're stuck with the dotted font style. Theres no way to change it, correct me if im wrong. I haven't tried the camera because stores usually have the best lighting and all photos turn out great no matter what phone.

After trying it out i went to samsung store to check on the new fold4 and they're meh.

"Nothing" should be invisible when it comes to hardware and software design.
It failed in both aspects.

1) Hardware: flashy and decorative. Ironically, it deviates from what it's supposed to be. Good design is invisible; this one is way too decorative.

2) Software: custom Android skin. They should have decided to use Stock Android to be truly "nothing."

Thank you for sharing 🙏
Thanks for mentioning about the audio quality 🙏

The led light only works if you face the phone down?and if I play music video or listen to music does the led works?

This host is hot af 🥵🔥

Have you heard of nokia 3310 with led lights? This is like a movie remake

Girls love resting their phones face done so it’ll shine.

Wish it had expandable storage and an earphone jack

Does LED dangerous inside the phone? Might heat up.. just asking

I was going to buy it , but after seeing this review i won't 😅
Because i use my wireless earphones most of the time and it's an issue for the sound quality may be they solve in the next phone 😉 i really liked the design of it 😍😍

camera stabilztn ?

Hi kuyaa Will ❤️

Not quite confident on their build quality. Would rather go with Samsung A series.

Just noticed how well built he is

Thank you for this review, audio is a -. ➖. So I'm avoiding this.

So much hype for a trash phone 🗑️

Does anyone have that Star Wars vibe on the Nothing phone?

There should be a lot more Android phones with even bezels.

They fixed the bluetooth codec issue please check again

It looks like OTA 1.1.2 came out the other day, did this address any of the issues you experienced? Specifically Audio? I saw it mentioned some Bluetooth fixes.

WHAT IS THE PRICE
