The Nothing Phone (1) makes a spectacular debut. The Glyph interface is pure gimmickry, at best an icebreaker - but who can object to that? Technically, the smartphone offers above-average performance for a mid-range smartphone. You have to make do with taking photos in dark environments. The short battery life is another point to consider.

- Unique look
- Fleet performance
- Glyphs personalisable
- Slow loading speed
- Display edges antiquated
- Power supply unit is missing in the scope of delivery
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't captivated by the Nothing. However, the hype diminished considerably after several weeks of use. The glyphs are nice, but have no real added value - and in the end you're left with a conventional Android phone. A very good one, though!
