It hasn’t been long since Nothing announced its first Android smartphone for the global audience. The London-based startup founded by Carl Pei is rumored to be working on the Nothing Phone (1) which will likely be announced soon. The company already has released a beta version of the Nothing launcher to give users a first-hand experience of the stock Android UI that the upcoming Nothing phone will offer. But now, the Nothing Phone (1) official launch date might have been spilled by a fresh tweet shared by Carl Pei. Separately, the specifications of the first Nothing Android phone have been leaked by a tipster. Can we expect a flagship-grade phone by Nothing as the past leaks suggested or are we looking at a value flagship? Read on to know:
Is Nothing Phone (1) Launching In Coming Months?
There have been several leaks that suggested an early Summer 2022 launch for the Nothing Phone (1). The first Nothing-labelled Android phone might break covers on June 9, 2022, at 4.20 PM. Carl Pei has revealed this information while replying to a user’s query at one of the company’s official tweets. Upon asking when the Nothing Phone (1) is expected to make its official debut, Pei replied with this cryptic message.
Since the previous leaks have already suggested a Summer 2022 launch for the first Nothing Phone (1), this information seems to be in line. Notably, the company has started teasing its upcoming Android phone via different social media platforms including Twitter. It shouldn’t take long for the brand now to announce the exact date for the Nothing Phone (1). Thanks to another fresh tweet by a tipster, we now have got all the major spec details of the upcoming Nothing phone.
Nothing Phone (1) Specifications Also Out
As mentioned earlier, the Nothing Phone (1) will be a premium mid-tier handset instead of being a full-fledged flagship. The specifications have been tweeted by a tipster called Raghvendra Singh Jadon. The tipster hints the upcoming Nothing series phone will be powered by the octa-core Snapdragon 778G processor. A bunch of premium mid-tier phones has been introduced recently in the Indian market including the Vivo T1 Pro 5G and the iQOO Z6 Pro 5G.
With this, we believe the Nothing Phone (1) will be one strong rival of the aforementioned smartphones. The device is tipped with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage configuration. The device is already confirmed to launch with Android 12 OS which will be accompanied by NothingOS UI. The Nothing Pone (1) display is tipped to measure 6.43-inches.
Nothing will be using an AMOLED panel that will support 1080p FHD+ screen resolution and 90Hz refresh rate. We are expecting a punch-hole cutout packing a massive 32MP selfie snapper. Since this is an AMOLED panel, we also can’t rule out the possibility of an in-display fingerprint scanner.
The tipster has also revealed the Nothing Phone (1) primary camera hardware. The first Nothing phone will feature a triple rear camera system where the main lens will measure 50MP and will be combined with an 8MP ultrawide sensor and a 2MP additional lens. The spec-sheet here is speculated to be completed by a 4,500 mAh battery. While the exact fast charging capacity isn’t confirmed, a wireless charging support is tipped.
