Here\u2019s everything we know so far.<\/p>\n<p>First off, it\u2019s worth giving you the background on this new smartphone. Nothing founder, Carl Pei, was one of the masterminds behind the OnePlus brand before leaving in 2020 to start Nothing.<\/p>\n<p>The brand is now known for its earbuds, which carry the same distinctive see-through style, allowing you to see some of the internals. Our experts were really impressed with the Nothing ear (1) earbuds, giving them a four-star rating and describing the buds as: \u201cbringing the fight to Apple\u2019s AirPods\u201d. For more on the company\u2019s earbuds take a look at our full <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/tech-reviews\/nothing-ear-1-review\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Nothing ear (1) review<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The quality of the earbuds, combined with Pei\u2019s previous work at OnePlus, makes the Nothing Phone (1) an exciting proposition. As you can see in the image above, the phone packs a transparent look and \u2014in terms of its shape \u2014 seems to share some similarities with the <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/tech-reviews\/iphone-13-review\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Apple iPhone 13<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from the styling, Nothing has shown it\u2019s willing to depart from market norms as a brand, with most other new Android phones currently offering a triple-camera array on the back. The Nothing Phone (1) offers two cameras but looks good. We\u2019re yet to have confirmation on how powerful those two cameras are, or on the nature of the front-facing camera.<\/p>\n<p>So, could it be one of the <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/technology-guides\/best-smartphone\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">best smartphones<\/a> of 2022?

It will be shortly afterwards most likely and we\u2019d guess that pre-orders will probably go live at the end of the presentation.<\/p>\n<p>So far, the actual release date hasn\u2019t been confirmed though, with Nothing keeping it quiet until the 12th. The company said that the phone will fully release during \u201csummer 2022\u201d.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Nothing Phone (1) UK price<\/strong><\/h2>\n<blockquote class=\"&quot;twitter-tweet&quot;\" data-dnt=\"&quot;true&quot;\"><p lang=\"&quot;en&quot;\" dir=\"&quot;ltr&quot;\">Nothing Series #1.

The co-founder and CEO made OnePlus into a brand that offered great feature sets without top-end prices. Now, OnePlus are moving into more premium handsets, so the Nothing Phone could become another key competitor in the mid-range market.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Nothing Phone (1) specs\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>So what\u2019s under the hood? First off, Nothing has confirmed that the device will be powered by a Qualcomm chip, though the company hasn\u2019t said which one yet.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere, the phone will come with three years of software updates and four years of security updates. It will run on Nothing OS, which is apparently close to an untouched Android experience and comes with less bloatware than other manufacturers\u2019 devices and operating systems.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s also an always-on display and wireless charging, but we don\u2019t know what size that display will be yet. We\u2019re expecting the industry-standard 120Hz refresh rate and an OLED panel.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How to buy Nothing Phone (1) in the UK<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>You\u2019ll have to wait until July 12th for buying information on the Nothing Phone and for details on when you can pre-order.<\/p>\n<p>Right now, you can visit the Nothing website for more information and for pre-orders as soon as they go live.<\/p>\n<ul><li><strong><a href=\"\/\/nothing.tech\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;sponsored noopener noreferrer\" noreferrer=\"\" noopener=\"\">Shop Nothing products at Nothing.tech<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/stores\/Nothing\/page\/807C016B-1351-44A0-ABBE-D452E47DE2D9?tag=radtim0b-21&amp;ascsubtag=radiotimes-0&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;sponsored&quot; noopener noreferrer\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\"><strong>Shop Nothing products on Amazon<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul><p><strong>For more tech news, deals and reviews, head to our <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Technology<\/a> section.
