Nothing Phone (1)

[ThinkMe]

So...... the stocks will grow dust in SG retail stores..?

Kinda bummed about the pricing. Might as well get a mid range Samsung that price

Even the UI is a bit iOS-ish. When will Chinese brands learn, that people who want an iPhone will get the iPhone even if it costs more. They aren't going to spend on a cheaper iPhone clone. Oppo learned the hard way that's why their OS is more Android now compared to last time. But Nothing and Xiaomi still trying to copy iPhone in look and UI

Got meh? I feel the UI is pretty stock android with few add ons.

They mark up the price for retails so probably have to wait a few months for sale to see price reduction after collected enough dust.

Nothing UI looks like just another stock OS like past OxygenOS.

They see our sentiment here about their pricing and decide not to launch here so as to prevent dust collection?

 

[Darkshadows]

I believe the price will put off many phone manics (at least for me) who wanted to try this phone for fun.
The price of $869 (8+256GB) is already very close to many flagship phones.

Maybe S$599 to max S$699 still got chance.

Lol with that price, I'd rather NOT try this phone and get better phones out there. What a rip off!

“The Nothing Phone (1) offers standard specs and features and differentiates itself via the ‘glyph’ interface on the back slab of the phone. This interface features a series of LED lights that can be programmed by the user to serve as a visual notification center. The glyph, however, is more of a gimmick than a feature most consumers will want to use. The purpose of the glyph is to notify discreetly fashion, but there is nothing discreet about a series of flashing LED lights.”
