It’s a generic question and the first answer it merits is “It depends.” but let me explain myself a bit more.

I’m looking at changing my phone in two or three months and the current phone I have was a bit of a let down. It’s a BlackView and I bought it being rugged but the phone comes with a few quirks I can’t get rid of.

On Lemmy, Nothing Phone is randomly mentioned. Some talk down on it, others praise it.

I’ve set a budget for how much I’m willing to spend on my next phone but the store I usually go to has added the brand to their catalogue and one of the models, although a bit more than what I want to spend is something I could consider.

The model in question is the Nothing CMF Phone 1, 8GB RAM, 128 GB storage, 5G network ready.

But how different and better from the average brand is Nothing Phone? What sets them apart?

    Personally I’d recommend getting either a used Google pixel 8 or 8a, or a new pixel 9a and installing GrapheneOS on it, which will give you the best possible security and privacy, as well as the longest security support of almost any android phone (7 years from point of release, pixel 9a will be supported until 2032).
