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?

    I own a nothing 3a. Love the phone. Software is very close to AOSP concept and was able to uninstall immediately all the apps I didn’t want, and they don’t come back with upgrades.

    Overall great built, good matherials, great software. Don’t care a bit for the fancy ldes, and they don’t get in the way.

    I would recommend, but the CMF1 is old, unless you get a very good deal…

    This nothing phone I own is the first phone ever I don’t feel the need to root for any reason.
