Since its launch in late 2020, mysterious startup Nothing – created by former OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei – has led a fairly private existence, however, its second product ever – the Nothing Phone (1) – is now confirmed to be coming, this summer.

As to how the Phone (1) will serve as the heart of Nothing’s promised ecosystem remains to be seen, especially from a software standpoint, but there are already details surrounding the phone’s software, feature set and the hardware it might be sporting when it does arrive later this year. Here’s all we know so far.

The company’s debut product – the Nothing Ear (1) true wireless headphones – boasted competitive pricing (at £/US$99), while retaining premium features like ANC (active noise cancellation), placing them at the upper end of what would be considered ‘budget’ within their respective product category.

If the same treatment were to be applied to the Phone (1), we’d expect something in the region of £250/$300, however, suspicions and leaks point to Nothing producing something a little more high-end.
