The Nothing CMF Phone 1 256GB is Nothing's 2024 smartphone featuring a 6.67 inches, 107.4 cm2 (~85.1% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Mediatek Dimensity 7300 (4 nm) chipset. It comes with a 5000 mAh battery. At AED 890 in the UAE and ₹16,999 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The Nothing CMF Phone 1 excels with its 5000mAh battery delivering 16h13m active use and 33W wired charging, enabling full-day endurance and 0–50% in under 30 minutes. Its 6.67-inch 1080x2400 display offers sharp 395 ppi clarity, and Android 14 with up to two major upgrades ensures long-term software support. Ideal for budget-conscious professionals who need reliable all-day battery, fast charging, and clean software without bloat. The weakness is the absence of NFC, limiting contactless payments and transit card use — a critical gap in UAE and India’s growing digital payment ecosystems. In UAE at AED 890, it’s competitive because it outperforms similarly priced phones in battery life and charging speed. In India at ₹16999, it’s overpriced; rivals like the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ offer 200MP cameras, 120Hz displays, and NFC at the same cost. Skip if you need mobile payments or higher refresh rates.
