CMF Phone 1 8+128GB - Unlocked smartphone with 50 MP Sony rear camera with Ultra XDR, 6,67" Super AMOLED display and Nothing OS 2.6 - Light Green

First of all, the batter life is outstanding. I get 3 days usage out of it, 2 if I am using it more often. A full day if I'm using it for a full day map navigation or watching movies. Screen is great for such a cheap phone. Camera is only okay but I guess they had to cheap out somewhere, but it's not my primary requirement, so for me it's not a bother. UI is lovely, not too full of junky apps or widgets and what is pre installed looks and functions well. Great phone, I'm a convert to nothing/CMS phones.

I bought this phone for my dad and overall I'd say it was a great phone, The screen is Large has a high response rate and is really bright with good colors. The phone has enough power from the processor. The tasks are easy and scrolling is smooth, it has enough RAM and storage that it will last and it has a MicroSD card slot in case you need more storage. The general build is decent although plastic, but I bought a case for it so you don't really realize. It charges quickly although it has no wireless charging and no NFC which is the biggest downside of the phone, apart from that, I would highly recommend if you're looking for a phone on a budget.

If you don't mind no NFC and wireless charging this is amazing phone fast and great at everyday things game is smooth graphics are clear and pop off the screen even when playing in just high. Screen is bright and has a great feeling. Downside Feels plastic but I love this due to the changeable backs Camera if you are one of those people that need amazing pictures then this phone is not for you they are good but not close to the flagships of Google, apple or Samsung. Pros Great battery life Easy to use Fast General all round greatness

The phone itself is well built, good quality, very quick and responsive. Great camera, very easily scratched lenses though they would be better if they were inset as opposed to protruding. This phone has NO NFC so please beware of that if you need/use NFC. I know it's called nothing but the phone doesn't even come with a USB cable let alone a plug which is crazy cause every time I plug it in using an apple plug and cable which is very fast I get a 'not charging at optimal speed message'... Well, supply the proper cable then. Other than that, it's a good phone at a fair price.

The internal components used are of much higher than usual quality from this UK-made phone. The camera is excellent. The sound and music output is the highest quality I have ever heard from a portable device, but you will need a USB C DAC to connect to standard jack headphones (only a few quid from Amazon - eg. Nimaso). Battery life is superb with up to 3 full days of normal use on one charge (I don't play games with adverts, but Wordfeud and Spades Royale were part of my tests). Standard latest Android and virtually no bloatware make this easy and intuitive to operate and configure. The screen is bright and clear, and colours are vibrant. Migration from my old phone was painless and easy, using the USB C to USB C cable supplied. It comes with a screen protector fitted but no free case. For £209, this is great VFM.

I'm blown away by this phone and what it costs. I can't think of another phone on the market that costs the current £169 that has 8GB RAM, expandable storage, 120hz Amoled and a 5000MaH battery. This runs the full version of Nothing OS which is a minimalist styled version of Android. It comes with no bloatware to speak of (another first at this price point). The phone runs really quickly, with no noticeable lag. I've had phones cost double this that didn't run as smoothly! The design is a bit like marmite, you'll either love it or hate it. Personally I love it, loads of smartphones look identical these days so I'm glad for something a bit different. However if it's not to your taste just put a case on and enjoy the rest of what the phone has to offer. The 3 notable things this device doesn't have are optical image stabilization, wireless charging and NFC. NFC is the big one that almost stopped me from buying this device, in the UK contactless payments are the norm and it seems a bit of a mistake to have not included this. I would've happily paid another £20 for this device if it had this functionality. Nothing do sell a card holder case which could negate the issue. For me personally I'll just pull out my wallet and use my card, the tradeoff is one I'm willing to accept. Battery life is phenomenal, I actually have 2 of these devices (one for work, and personal). The work one generally just gets used for 2fa the occasional phone call and message, on a full charge it will sit there turned on 24/7 and lasts over a week! The standby drain or lack of is amazing. It will generally only lose 1% overnight. My personal one which I use quite a bit more will easily last 2 days. At the end of the 2nd day I'm generally at about 40-50%. Nothing seem to be committed to regular updates too, in my ownership I've gained access to loads of new apps and functionality. This is a breath of fresh air compared to some other manufacturers. Aside from lacking OIS the camera is surprisingly good (Note I say Camera, singular. The 2nd camera is actually just a depth sensor) and can produce good results in a wide range of environments. It has a form of electronic stabilization that can be turned in the settings and works by slightly cropping the image to keep it steady. If you're into customization this phone is also more allowing of that than other devices. The back cover can be removed easily with the screws and be replaced with something else. The community seems to be growing around this device, I've even seen a 3d printable nerf gun case for this phone! Unless one of the 3 features I've mentioned that are missing are a deal breaker to you, you could certainly do a lot worse than buying one of these.

The camera quality is amazing picture for reference, it's fast the screen is very responsive with high fidelity, the speaker is on par with any stand alone I've ever used , I've never had an issue with storage, it's taken many hits as I drop it more often than I should and it takes that beating even without a case and it charges quite fast

I use this as a secondary phone and it’s been great. The camera quality is really good for the price, and it handles basic tasks smoothly. Not the fastest flagship, but perfect for backup or travel use. Happy with the purchase.
