The notification sounds are sci-fi-retro and completely unique when compared to the notification sounds we’ve all heard a million times on Samsung and Apple devices.
Just jump into the Glyph Interface section within the phone’s settings and you can choose from a selection of notification sounds that are perfectly matched with the lights on the back of the phone. The back of the phone sports a transparent glass panel that shows off some of the phone’s internals and what Nothing is calling the Glyph Interface which is a unique pattern made up of 900 LED lights that are used for notifications and a bit more. But flip it over and things get quite a bit more interesting. Eye-catching Designįrom the front, the front, and sides, the Nothing Phone 1 looks like any other smartphone, featuring a metal frame, volume buttons on the left edge, and the power button on the right side. The Nothing Phone 1 does exactly that, with a bit of flare. For me, the formula for a good smartphone has always been to simply deliver a good device at the right price point. In fact, it’s easily one of the best mid-range smartphones I’ve used in years. It’s definitely helped Nothing garner quite a bit of attention with the launch of its earbuds last year and the new smartphone if nothing else.īut strip away all the hype and the marketing and the Nothing Phone 1 has no issues standing on its own. Depending on what your stance is on the history of OnePlus, this could either be a good thing or a bad thing. For those who don’t know, the company’s founder and CEO, Carl Pei, was also the co-founder of OnePlus. While this is the first smartphone from Nothing, there’s certainly a lot of hype that we need to cut through. Of course, Samsung, Oppo, and Xiaomi all have a broad selection of mid-range smartphones to choose from, but if you’re looking for a device that is eager to stand out in a sea of devices that all look the same, the Nothing Phone 1 may be exactly what you’re looking for. Those bleeding edge specs that you paid top-dollar for in 2019 have now trickled down to the mid-range segment, giving you a lot more options than you’ve had in the past. The high-end of the market has always had great options and though phone reviewers like me might nit-pick about the slight differences in camera quality between the top contenders or split hairs in regards to performance or displays, most people would be more than happy with any flagship smartphone since the last time they upgraded was 2-3 years ago.īut a funny thing has happened in the past few years. Finding the perfect smartphone used to be a simple task, as long as you had a limitless budget or didn’t mind signing your life away to a service provider for the next 2-3 years.
