zanezonair, 10 Feb 2024Looking to have some questions answered about this phone if... moreI would suggest to wait for the new Nothing Phone 2a, it will cost about the same (maybe a bit more) and will have a faster processor as well as get more updates.

zanezonair, 10 Feb 2024Looking to have some questions answered about this phone if... moreYes It does support Google services natively.
It doesn't heats up when used heavily to me.
It's 4g/5g
Don't know how long it will be updated,but I think it will have at least 2 more major updates(my opinion)
The screen is flat.
Compared to OnePlus 11 Just Expect a bit less battery ,less speaker and ui performance . Overall I love it

Looking to have some questions answered about this phone if anyone is willing as it's one of my options for my next phone:
How many os updates will the phone get?
Does it have Google play support?
Does it support visible? (just lte 4g is fine. I don't need more than that)
Is the screen flat?
And now easily does it heat up under heavyish loads?
(Also please don't suggest a phone to me I have my own criteria for a phone and I just wanna find a mid ranger to replace my OnePlus 11 on my own.)
Thanks in advance for any help.

Today I updated my one year old nothing phone 1. So far so good. Everything is running smooth though first couple minutes I saw some jitters/lagging here and there. Then I updated my playstore and restart my device. Then it is giving me a very good battery backup with 7.5h sot. I don't use the camera much but I think it's also relatively good 😊. Just one disappointment that glass effect is missing 😌

Goutham, 16 Jan 2024Hi nothing tech I am not satisfying with my speaker sound q... moreI don't think it would improve the speakers much. Maybe if they added an equaliser via a software update.
The speakers are the weakest feature of NP1 in my opinion.

Bionic Chip, 16 Jan 2024Placing the front-facing camera in the middle of Phone (2) ... moreNot symmetrical...

Placing the front-facing camera in the middle of Phone (2) destroyed the design aesthetics and philosophy of Nothing. I think the Phone (2) would look better if it had the same front camera placement as the Phone (1).

This might be one of the most unoptamized phones I've ever used. It's a great phone but it needs more optimization updates.
Build quality is excellent, wireless charging is great, although I've had problems using my own wireless chargers, the position of the wireless charging coils are higher than on other phones.
The glyphs are still a gimmick, I've had this phone for 1 year one and it still feels like a gimmick, and I just can't get used to it, and I have it off almost basically all the time to conserve battery.
My problems start with the bad state the software is right now, and how bad the battery life has been.
My problems with software all come down to optimization.
I have the 8gb version of the phone, and have only essential apps (no games, only 3 social media apps), I've also deleted all the Nothing bloatware and Google apps I didn't need.
Still this phone cannot keep anything in memory for more than 5 minutes, I close a app and open another, then when I go back to the previous app it restarts, this shows lack of optimization or lack of power from the CPU, I suspect it's lack of optimization. Hopefully they correct this issue with a future update.
Now for battery life, I don't have it as bad as others who complain about battery, but the battery life is disappointing. But how can my previous phone with a smaller battery and more power hungry CPU (and 2 years of ussage) get superior battery life than the Nothing.
To get the same battrty life with the Nothing, I have to turn off the glyphs and have the screen running at 60hz.
I suspect that it is a lack of optimization again.
To end it all, is that being a Nothing Phone 1 user is like being a Beta tester, the phone feels like a Beta product, and now that Phone 2 is out, we are even ignored when it comes to new futures that could totally back ported to Phone 1.
