Nothing CMF Phone 1's removable back covers revealed
Nothing's upcoming budget CMF Phone 1 will debut on July 8, and the company is stepping up the teasers. Today's post on X shows more interesting details about the phone.
We already knew the modular nature of the CMF Phone 1 and that it will get replaceable back covers, but today we get to see four of the available back colors - black, blue, light green and orange. There may be more in the future, but the handset will likely launch with these first.
We've seen some attempts in the past with the Motorola Moto X (2nd Gen) and its replaceable bamboo back covers. And more recently, Carl Pei's ex-company, OnePlus, released the OnePlus 2, which had an easily replaceable back cover with sandstone.
It's a cool idea for sure, as you don't have to stick to a color or spend huge amounts of money if the back panel breaks. You can just replace it with a new one or with a color you like better.
