- Just received my new phone, very happy with it!
I'll keep you updated during the complete lifespan of the phone. For now I'm very happy with it and it's a vast improvement upon my previous phone, a 2019 Umidigi Power.
After two weeks of usage, I still have barely any complaints: everything feels very smooth, the camera performs well under different conditions and Nothing OS is just extremely well designed, except for the fact that when enabling or disabling the wifi/mobile data, you can accidentally enter a submenu, that I never use.
6 months: Just amazing for the price, no complaints whatsoever!Pros- Works smoothly
- Looks nice
- Bright screen
- Versatile camera
Cons- Wifi / Mobile data submenu

View answers - A very nice, simple budget phone with a spectacular OS
For a daily use, it is spectacular. The 120hz complements the price very well. Coupled with the decent MediaTek 7300, it is a damn good device for the price. Along with the hardware, you'll get the nothingOS, which is a very aesthetic and smooth OS. All in all, it is a great device for a daily use (granted you're not too dependent on NFC).
Pros- Spectacular display
- Great performance
- Clean OS
- Good battery life
- Decent gaming performance
- Great price
Cons- No NFC
- Mono speaker
- 2 years of Android Updates
- Only 1 usable camera

View answers - Great Phone Overall For The Price And Great Gaming Performance
If Ur Malaysian and bought this phone the lack of NFC isn't big of a deal since we still use QR codes here
Gaming is great runs every game at 30-60fps or even 120fps if u enabled it on developer mode which forces games to use 120hz(is your screen maximum fps) /120fps
The lack headphone jack also isn't big deal since type c ear/headphones exist
The Camera is only great if you don't care abt the extremes
More importantly the phone doesn't overheatPros- Great Battery Life (for the price)
- Great Normal Use Performance
- Decent Gaming Performance
- Magnificent Screen
- Good Microphone
- Nice Screen Borders
Cons- No Nfc
- Only 2 Years of software updates
- 3 Years Security Updates
- Only One Rear Camera
- A Ok Only Speakers
- No Headphone Jacks

This is the phone that introduced me to Nothing OS, the shell is just super, about the phone it's a good reliable, but it's better to buy 2 Pro, only its front camera is much larger, which is a minus, and the plus is that it has a wide-angle camera, and there are two identical devices, the CMF 1 is slightly thicker and slightly smaller, it has large frames, but a small front camera, and it's also cool that you can change the covers, the bad thing is that there is no NFC, and the CMF 2 Pro solves this, it is slightly larger, smaller frames, twice the size of the front camera, which is very annoying, useless button, it is a little thinner and there is a wide-angle camera, there is no charger in the box and the charger is 33 watts and this is not enough
Pros- A very small hole for the front camera
- Autonomy
- Balanced
- shell
Cons- Framework
- Need a wide-angle camera
- Charging speed
- Thickness
- Lack of NFC
- Sound and vibration

It's an aesthetically pleasing phone for some, however, it's true that the plastic feels quite strong, which isn't unpleasant to the touch but becomes somewhat uncomfortable after extended use. The cameras are decent, very good in good lighting, but they start to struggle in low light. Performance is decent and you won't have any problems with that at all, although due to the materials, the phone tends to get warm. I do recommend it; the system runs very smoothly for me and it performs well for the games I play, but if you're looking for top-tier performance, this isn't the phone for you, nor would I recommend it if your primary goal is good cameras.

A couple of months ago, I gave it to my grandmother as a gift, because hers was on its last legs. The few days I was able to test the device, I only got a limited impression, because as soon as I set it up, I gave it to my grandmother to start testing it too. To begin with, I find the design simple but nice; it doesn't stand out much, but it still has a unique touch with the screws on the back cover. It seemed like a fairly large phone; you can navigate it with one hand. The sound quality was quite poor, but for the price, I wasn't expecting the best on the market. Its strongest point was the phone's optimization and services; it ran very smoothly without any sudden system crashes, freezes, or significant drops in refresh rate. I say this because I have a Xiaomi Note 14 in the same price range, and you can definitely tell that the system is cleaner and more organized. The camera isn't the best, but it's decent enough. It takes basic photos with AI-enhanced details, but they're simple. The video option is okay, especially the 1080p 60fps setting. However, it's quite fragile due to its all-plastic construction, and the screen and cameras have already started showing small scratches—not severe, but noticeable upon closer inspection. In conclusion, I think it's an acceptable phone. For the price, I'm not expecting a high-end model, but it could be improved in several areas, particularly its durability.
Pros- Fluid Experience
- Simple Design
- Constant Updates
- Economic
Cons- Absence of NFC
- Mono Audio
- No Fast Charging
- Prone to Scratches

Score
- 6.7 Design & Materials
- 7.4 Performance & Hardware
- 6.6 Camera
- 7.1 Connectivity
- 6.9 Battery
In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:
- Design and screen
- Hardware and performance
- Camera
- Connectivity
- Battery
Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.
Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.
The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
