CMF Phone 1 Leak Hints at Surprisingly Affordable Smartphone
May. 8, 2024Nothing’s sub-brand CMF is all set to launch their first smartphone, as covered in aprevious leak. But now we have some more information about its design, price, and specifications, and it looks like a departure from what you expect as it will be a budget-friendly device. CMF’s first smartphone could follow Nothing’s naming scheme and may launch as theCMF Phone 1.
According to91 Mobiles, the phone will feature a6.5-inch display, with Gorilla Glass protection. We can expect a single camera setup at the back, a 5000 mAh battery, and a MediaTek Dimensity processor to power the device. It will be eitherDimensity 6100 or 6300chipset. The device could runacut-down version of the Nothing OSwith 3 Android Updates and 4 years of Security patches.
Since this will be a budget device, we may see a plastic enclosure similar to the one on thePhone (2a). Based on the leaks, the design looks quite bland and uninspiring, but it could also be a fan-made render. Like the other products in CMF’s lineup, the Phone 1 may be available in three colors: Orange, Black, and White. The phone may bepriced at about Rs 12,000 or $140which is half the price of the Nothing Phone (2a) released earlier this year.
Nothing is trying to penetrate every segment of the Indian smartphone market to establish a presence. Similar to what OnePlus has managed to do over the years. Hopefully, the phone looks nothing like the leaked renders. The budget segment needs a refreshing design that CMF has the opportunity to bring.
