Nothing Phone (1) is all set to launch on the 12th of July

Nothing Phone (1) has been on news for months now. We were continuously rumored about its launch date; now, we have an official one – July 12. That’s right!!! Nothing is launching its first phone soon in the German market. Here, you will talk about the specs, features, availability, and expected price of Nothing Phone (1) in Nepal. Carl Bei confirmed this news from Germany.

Nothing Phone (1) Overview

Singularity-focused design

Carl Pei once mentioned that the first Nothing Phone will be based on Dyson’s singularity-focused design. As per the news, Dyson’s former design head, Adam Bates led the design for the device. In addition, Jesper Kouthoofd and Tom Howard are also working on the same purpose.

Nothing Phone (1) Display and Design

Transparent Back

Nothing Phone (1) brings a transparent back which means you will be able to view the inside components of the device easily. We have a live example with the Nothing Ear (1) TWS earbuds where a similar concept was visualized. However, this is not the first time for a phone to have a transparent back since Xiaomi and Nubia have already shown us their smartphones with a transparent back. We have seen a few designs for Nothing Phone via the social media handles of Carl Pei. However, we are yet to see which will be used in the final product.

Hardware specs

Powering the device is Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 which was slightly hinted at by Carl Pei’s tweets. However, we are yet to be sure about it as well. Likewise, we will see some components from Samsung, Visionox, and Sony in the phone as well. Moreover, the brand will flaunt the charging coil on the back of the phone which means the phone will have wireless charging.

Nothing OS and ecosystem

Nothing Phone (1) will bring Nothing OS which will then have three major updates and an additional year of security patches. According to the company, you’ll have a very smooth experience. Nothing OS also moves along the dot-matrix design with you see in the Nothing logo. If you are interested, you can view the Nothing OS launcher in Play Store which is already available for some phones.

As we are familiar that Nothing Phone (1) is a second device by Nothing after Nothing Ear (1) TWS. However, the brand is already planning for a rivalry with Apple. This means that the Nothing ecosystem is planning on a great vision for the future.

Nothing Phone (1) Leaks and Rumors

Nothing Phone (1) Price in Nepal

We have finally received the official launch date for the Nothing Phone (1) – 12th July. However, we are yet to know about the price of Nothing Phone (1) in Nepal or any other global market. A leak has told us it’s around EUR 500 but we can’t rely on that information.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2022) Overview

Design and Display

The 2022 version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite brings a 10.4-inch TFT LCD screen with a 1200×2000-pixels resolution. It is the same as we saw earlier in the 2020 version of the tablet. The device boasts a 224-pixel density and the display even supports a stylus and you can see the S pen included in the box.

The tablet weighs 467 grams and measures 244.5×154.3×7mm in dimension. Likewise, the front is made up of glass while the back is made up of aluminum. Then, this setup is packed up in an aluminum frame again. There are three color options for the tablet – Chiffon Pink, Angora Blue, and Oxford Gray.

Performance and Memory

The Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is powered up with Qualcomm Snapdragon 720G chipset. Last time on the 2020 version, there was Samsung’s in-house chip – Exynos 9611. And now, the 720G brings even better performance than the Exynos 9611. It integrates an octa-core CPU with two Kryo 465 Gold (@2.3GHz) and six Kryo 465 Silver (@1.8GHz) cores coupled with Adreno 618 for graphics. It is based on an 8nm manufacturing process and has a very efficient performance level.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite Performance and Memory

As per memory, there is a single RAM configuration of 4GB teamed up with either 64GB or  128GB internal storage. You can also expand the latter up to 512GB via a dedicated microSD card slot.

Software

The handset ships with Android 12 out of the box while the 2020 version had Android 10 and subsequently brought Android 12 with an upgrade. We can assume that Samsung will provide two major software updates but since the hardware components are the same as the older version, it is still a little difficult to get ahold of.

Camera and Audio

Under the hood, there is a total of two cameras in the device – one on the front and one on the back. On the back, there is an 8MP lens with 1.12-microns pixel capacity and on the front, there is a 5MP sensor. Both front and back cameras can record videos at 1080p resolution at the rate of 30 frames per second.

For audio, there is a loudspeaker system with stereo speakers tuned by AKG. It means you can experience Dolby Atmos via the device. Further, there is a 3.5mm headphone jack for music and calls.

Rest of the specs

Fueling the device is a 7,040mAh battery cell with 15W fast charging support. We are still unclear if the charger is included in the box. There are some sensors like an accelerometer, proximity, gyro, and ANT+. Moreover, Wi-Fi 802.11, Bluetooth 5.0, USB Type-C, and GPS (A-GPS, GLONASS, BDS, GALILEO) reside for connectivity.
