Carl Pei’s Nothing brand has been teasing the Nothing Phone (1) for quite some time now. Finally, the phone is expected to launch today at an event in London, UK. For consumers in India, the phone will launch at 8:30 PM IST and will be sold via Flipkart. Here we’re going to have a basic overview of the phone, including the expected price, specifications, and the links for the launch livestream. Let’s get started!
Nothing Phone (1) Specs
Although we’ve had quite a few leaks regarding the expected specifications of the Nothing Phone (1), very few specifications have been deemed official. We do know that the phone will come with a Snapdragon 778G SoC. There will be a dual-camera setup at the rear, with the primary camera using the Sony IMX766 sensor, featuring a 50MP lens. The phone will also ship with Android 12 out of the box. Apart from this, there’s a lighting system at the back of the phone that’s officially called the Glyph Interface. This LED lighting can fulfil multiple functions based on the user’s settings. Additionally, the phone will support wireless charging. However, the semi-transparent phone design is what captures the user’s attention.
The phone’s design isn’t particularly new, as the company has used this design in their Nothing ear (1) earbuds. Regardless, it seems to be a way to capture the market’s attention and stand out from the sea of phones available at the target price range. Nonetheless, for more official specs, we’ll have to wait until the phone’s launch.

Nothing Phone (1) Price
There have been multiple rumours regarding the pricing. However, Nothing hasn’t revealed the price of the phone yet. Since the phone will be manufactured in India, there’s a good chance that the phone’s final pricing will be less than previously speculated. At first, the phone’s initial price was assumed to be around 500 Euros, roughly coming in at INR 39,959. Other reports have stated that the 8GB + 128GB variant of the phone might retail for a price of INR 34,999.
Considering the rumours about the phone’s pricing, we’ll have to wait until the phone’s official launch to get an idea about the Indian pricing. However, since the phone will be available via Flipkart, you can check out the Nothing Phone (1) launch landing page.

Despite a large amount of speculation regarding the phone, Nothing has kept surprisingly mum on several critical aspects regarding their new smartphone. Thankfully, all will be revealed today at the launch event in London, UK. We hope the phone brings in some much-needed changes to the upper mid-range and premium range of smartphones.
