Hey Whats Up Mkbhd Here And Yes

This is the nothing phone the first phone from the startup that gave us the nothing year one Earbuds in 2021 a big step into establishing their own ecosystem that they’re building and it looks familiar but also very different. So we live in an age right now where so many of the top phones. The most popular phones are designed to appeal to the masses that’s the point of them and so they all end up kind of looking basically the same all very similar. You know big screen up on the front a couple cameras on the back a couple pale colors. Nothing too crazy just a glass slab.

So If A Startup Were To Come

along and make another average phone, it would probably fit in pretty nice, but there wouldn’t really be any reason to switch to it to. to buy that one so what nothing has done is They’ve made a pretty unique looking phone that also happens to have a bunch of cool features surrounding that unique look. I think it’s pretty sick. Now. This phone isn’t out yet Fyi it’s coming around July 12th, So definitely get subscribed to make sure you see the full review of the entire phone and everything about it when it does come out um but until then what I am allowed to show you now is the back of the phone so the ear one earbuds that came from them last year played off of this transparency theme not fully transparent but definitely with some clear plastic bits that look cool and then reveal some shielding inside that’s strategically placed and painted to look sweet that’s kind of the look.

This Phone Also Has Going On Too But

the way. That really stands out is with these lights on the back, so the phone has what I would basically call the ultimate notification led so the notification led on the back of the phone has been a dying breed lately you don’t see them very much but when you do, which is rare it’s so nice to just have like a subtle little glowing led that just tells you what’s going on you can tell if you have a new phone call or text message or a new tweet, and this is a sort of a exaggerated all-out version of that so there are just over 900 leds making up a pattern across the whole back of this phone around the dual cameras around the wireless charging pad in the middle and then some stripes up into the corner and then down by the charging port at the bottom and. Do a great job frosting over them, so the glow really cleanly appears as just a solid continuous light bar so they call it the Glyph interface and it has a bunch of real functionality. So first of all it does light up and pulse for your notifications. It will also light up and glow when your wireless charging or reverse wireless charging which is neat, but there’s also a feature where when you plug into UsBc to charge it lights up that bottom bar and then acts as a progress bar indicator and of course you wouldn’t want that to stay lit up all the time so it turns off but anytime you want to check on it.

All You Got To Do Is Just

wiggle the phone a little bit and it lights up again so you can see how far you’ve gotten that is dope the entire. Glyph interface can light up at once as a fill light for the cameras. These are pretty bright leds normally some lights on the back of a phone. I wouldn’t say make much of a difference but for some sort of close-up subjects or in darker rooms. This can actually make a difference versus the normal flash that’s also on the back of the phone plus.

  • smartphone
  • phones
  • iphone
  • phone
  • ringtones

There Is A Blinking Red Light

on the back here, which is a recording indicator for when you’re recording videos and then nothing has built an entire user interface into the settings that let you control exactly how the lights work when they turn on and what they light up for so the most impressive part to me. For sure is there are 10 built-in ringtones and you might not use ringtones that much but these are cool. They each have a light pattern. up to perfectly match the ring tone and so then you can pair ringtones with certain contacts so when you see a certain light pattern. Even when the phone is muted.

  • phone definitely super different think
  • popular phones designed appeal
  • slightly different looking phone safe
  • better phone overall sells
  • pretty unique looking phone happens

You Know Whos Calling You Just By Looking

at it and on launch you’ll be able to have different light patterns for notifications from different apps too I imagine they can add more stuff like this through software updates over time, but that is a really interesting actually new feature in a smartphone. We don’t see that very often so that’s pretty cool now whether it’ll be enough to actually get people to buy the phone or whether it impresses people who would usually put a case on their phone anyway that will have to wait until launch to see but I think it looks pretty sick. Honestly. It looks like a movie prop in my hand in certain. environments plus I’m sure there’s a clear case coming from nothing.

I Think Now That Theres Like

renders floating out there. The most common description I’ve seen of the look of this phone is like Oh! It just looks like an iphone 12 with a transparent back which sure you know with the dual cameras and the general shape you could reduce it to that if you want to, but also that’s pretty cool actually but actually for what it’s worth A clear backed Iphone 12 would look like this, which is a little bit different, so love it or hate it nothing’s phone looks kind of different so no matter what happens with the rest of the phone mission accomplished there. I guess the question we’re left with at this point is does this work like is this different enough looking to actually work are people going to buy. It are they going to want to actually switch to this slightly different looking phone over this safe bet and I guess the answer really is it’s a real strategy like look at these three phones. There’s a Naruto phone, a league of legends phone, a Dragon ball z phone.

All Super Unique Deep Collaborations With Custom Packaging

custom designs wallpapers, icon packs the whole thing they go the extra mile so this strategy of standing out with a cool features or sweet design is very intentionally to steal away a small amount of the most loyal customers. It’s literally a customer acquisition cost and maybe if the first run is successful enough, then they can make a slightly more broadly appealing slightly better phone overall that sells more and if that one works, then they can make an even more broadly appealing phone that sells even more and then. even more broadly appealing and even more until you’ve made a very broadly appealing phone that sells the most but that feels like it abandoned your original fan base sound familiar either way this phone is definitely super different. I think the lights are pretty cool, but we’ll have to see how it goes something to keep an eye on thanks for watching I’ll catch you guys in the next one peace.
