Nothing Teases the Design of Its Upcoming Phone in India
In a post on X, the Carl Pei-led company has teased the launch of a new smartphone. The teaser shows the diagram of a handset, with the video showing a “4b” pencil at the end, seemingly confirming that the company will unveil the purported Nothing Phone 4b in India, which could be positioned as its new entry-level smartphone series in the country. On top of this, a dedicated microsite for the upcoming “b” series device is now live on Flipkart, confirming its availability in India via the e-commerce website.
In terms of design, the purported Nothing Phone 4b is shown to be equipped with a single rear camera system. Moreover, the smartphone will sport the brand’s signature transparent rear panel, with exposed screws and other components. It could also get a flat back, along with rounded corners, similar to the higher-end Phone 4a series.
A report recently highlighted that the company’s sub-brand, CMF, has transferred its existing smartphone projects to Nothing. One of these handsets is tipped to be launched in India next month. However, it’s still unclear whether the phone will arrive as the Nothing Phone 4b. Moreover, CMF has already confirmed that it will not launch a new phone this year, while also delaying the launch of the CMF Phone 2 Pro successor.
Meanwhile, earlier this year, Nothing’s Carl Pei had also revealed that the company plans not to introduce a new flagship smartphone this year. Instead, the tech firm launched the mid-range Nothing Phone 4a Pro and Phone 4a in India on March 5, at starting prices of Rs. 39,999 and Rs. 31,999 for the 8GB + 128GB RAM and storage configurations, respectively.
