NOTHING. Only a few more days to wait before the official reveal of the Phone(1). Nothing’s first phone will be unveiled at an official Keynote conference.
If there’s one thing the Nothing brand has mastered for its Phone(1), it’s communication. After several months of questions, leaks, and teasing on social networks, Nothing invites us to meet on July 12 to unveil its future product: the Phone(1).
The Phone(1) is still shrouded in many mysteries. Its manufacturer, Nothing, has cast doubt for weeks on the highly anticipated product and announced as a small revolution in the world of smartphones. It would be located in particular in the mid-range, and would intend to shake up the current market a little. While waiting for the official conference on July 12, discover all the first information and rumors relating to Phone(1) from the Nothing brand.
What are the characteristics of the Phone(1) from Nothing?
The first official keynote from Nothing called “The Truth” was an opportunity for the company to unveil its next product: the Phone(1). At the center of many rumors and leaks on the net for several months, the Phone(1) is particularly awaited by many Internet users as the firm’s promises point to a “mini revolution” in the world of smartphones. If the conference “The Truth” will not have directly shown the design of the Phone(1), it has nevertheless revealed some basics from a very enigmatic logo.
Without giving further details, the Phone(1) should have a mid-range Snapdragon processor. Qualcomm’s current most powerful chip is the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. But the latest rumors about the Phone(1) point to a chip Snapdragon 778G which would allow the telephone to be compatible with the 5G communication bands.
Nothing’s Phone(1) will run on Android. No surprises so far, but Carl Pei, founder of the firm, also revealed that thee Phone(1) will have an in-house overlay called “Nothing OS”. This in-house operating system is defined as open and homogeneous in order to seamlessly connect and integrate devices from other brands with ease. Nothing’s CEO cited Tesla cars and AirPods Pro headphones, among others. Nothing is therefore a serious competitor to Apple, known in particular for its powerful ecosystem capable of connecting its various products with disconcerting ease.
Nothing also claimed that its operating system for the Phone(1) will have 40% fewer pre-installed applications. This software, commonly called “bloatware”, is often little desired by consumers and more the result of partnerships made between the manufacturers and developers of the said applications.
What is the release date for Nothing’s Phone(1)?
If many Internet users were waiting for a release date for the Phone(1) during the firm’s last conference, we will have to wait a little longer. Nothing intends to continue to build enthusiasm around its brand and its first major product. For now, Nothing’s Phone(1) is scheduled for release in summer 2022 without further details.
The Phone(1) will be officially presented this Tuesday, July 12. The Nothing brand has confirmed that it will hold a special conference, its first Keynote, to present the highly anticipated phone. We will obviously not fail to tell you about all the announcements made during this conference called “Return to instinct”.
At what price will the Phone(1) of Nothing be marketed?
At present, there is no official information on the sale price of the Phone(1). We will therefore have to wait a little longer to see if the Phone(1) is a top-of-the-range product, or if it poses as a real “flagship killer”, namely a product more accessible than the competition while offering performance equivalent. Carl Pei being the former One Plus co-founder, in particular thought at the base to be an aggressive competitor on the market of high-end smartphones, the Phone(1) could well surprise by its price.
What is Nothing?
If the name of Nothing means nothing to you, it may be normal. The company of Carl Pei (former founder of One Plus) is quite young, and has to its credit only one product launched in 2021: Ear headphones(1). Although it is a small success, the firm would like to point out that it is not a company specializing in audio products only.
Founded in 2020 by several big names in tech (including Kevin Lin and Steve Huffman, co-founders of Twitch and Reddit respectively), Nothing is launched thanks to an investment fund of up to $7 million. The company then continues its innovative momentum by promising to “break down the barriers between humans and technology”. In 2021, Nothing notably raised a million dollars in less than a minute thanks to an impressive community fundraising.
It will therefore be necessary to prepare to see more products from the Nothing brand in the more or less near future. The firm’s main objective is to offer devices close to their users and to create a hyperconnected and very intuitive ecosystem, while remaining respectful of the environment.
