IN-DEPTH INTERACTIONS AND BRAVE SIMPLICITY, NOTHING PHONE 1
from VAR Magazine
Unique design, solid performance, adequate battery life, and a reasonably priced phone!
Most of us reviewers are obsessed with specifications and a plethora of hardware components that do nothing! However, not this reviewer. Nothing seems to have paid attention to the user experience in this case, rather than the long-running specification war. This phone is unique not only in terms of design, but also in terms of user experience. You’ve probably heard of all those brands that produce phones with exceptional specifications at a low price. What distinguishes this phone now is the design, which adds to the well-built quality.

DESIGN AND COMPATIBILITY:
The design is clean and simple, and it gives the phone a meaning! As Akis stated when I interviewed him, why not incorporate the elements that it is composed of into the design of the phone. Perhaps that is what distinguishes this phone. Flat aluminum sides and visible antenna lines distinguish the phone. It has an Apple-style power button on the right and a volume control on the left. The phone has a transparent looking back where you can see the wireless charging coil through. The Glyph lighting, the phone’s most distinguishing feature, that is where the LED lights are embedded.
BATTERY AND CAMERA:
For medium to heavy usage, the 4500mAh battery provides adequate all-day battery life. Then you have 15W wireless charging and 33W wired charging. Although the speakers are loud, the sound effect could have been improved. But if you are all for the camera, then this is just not the phone for it. It’s a no match for the latest Apple phones, but it has quite a capable camera when the lights around are good, but when the lights are not there, the picture quality drastically falls down. And the selfie camera clicks pictures with a natural color tone.
THE PHONE’S USABILITY:
Then the finger print scanner is on the display, it’s a little toward the bottom of the screen, so you will a bit of difficultly there. You must remember this is not a pricey phone. The call quality is really great.
Does the phone communicate effectively?
The phone can communicate with you without you having to pick it up, but you must make a conscious effort to do so by flipping the phone back onto you! Remember when different colored notification lights were common on some phone brands? The Android on the phone is very close to stock Android and performs admirably. This device has a fast refresh rate. It’s extremely responsive and smooth! So far, the Android experience has been clean and refined.
VERDICT:
The Phone 1 isn’t a game changer or a radical departure from industry norms, but it excels at its core functions and appeals to all minds that want to have some fun with technology! Nothing’s phone 1 has given the company a strong start and a new cult following! With this price range, this is a good phone.
