Despite multiple leaks, Pei and Nothing have yet to release a new pair of headphones. Leaks earlier indicated that the 'Nothing ear (1) stick' option would be available today. Perhaps we'll see a silent launch for the same later on.

After numerous leaks, we now have definitive confirmation that the Nothing phone (1) will be available in black. Unlike the Nothing ear (1), it appears that both the white and black variants will be available for purchase simultaneously.

The phone (1) is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G+ chipset and a 4,500mAh battery that supports 33W wired charging, 15W wireless charging, and 5W reverse wireless charging. The phone (1) also has up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.

The Nothing phone (1) has bezels that are the same size on all four sides, including the typically bulkier chin. Pei claims that this is feasible thanks to the phone's flexible OLED panel (1), a technology found only in high-end flagship phones.

The Nothing phone (1) is mostly built of recycled materials, but Pei points out that the metal frame is layered between Gorilla Glass 5 layers, which means you won't be able to touch plastic when holding the phone (1)
The phone (1) also has near to stock Android, but with little changes such as a specific quick setting toggle for the Nothing ear (1), which Pei says will be available on other brands' handsets as well. Tesla is one of these brands, with the phone (1) allowing you to operate certain components of your Tesla vehicle remotely.

The launch event has begun, and Carl Pei has arrived holding the phone (1). The event opens with Pei demonstrating the Glyph Interface and its capabilities, the phone's most distinguishing feature.

The launch event for the Nothing phone (1) has began with what appears to be an audio issue. We don't know if this was done on purpose or if it was a true technical issue with the brand. The launch event should start soon.
12 July 2022, 19:10 PM
The launch ceremony for the Nothing phone (1) will begin in 30 minutes. The launch event will begin at 8:30pm IST and will last until 9pm. The brand could release the Nothing phone (1), as well as its rumoured accessories and the new Nothing ear (1) stick. Stay tuned for additional information.
