Confirmed! Nothing phone (1) to come with in-display fingerprint scanner

The UK-based smartphone company, Nothing, is gearing up for the launch of its maiden device, the Nothing phone (1). The company, founded by former OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei, is leaving no stone unturned in the run-up to the launch of its first android device.

The brand has posted a video on its official YouTube channel giving a closer look at the design and development of the highly-anticipated smartphone. The video also showcases the assembly line, the Glyph interface, the sound output, and the processor of the device.
While there have been several rumours surrounding the in-display fingerprint scanner, however the latest video from the brand has confirmed that the smartphone will come with the feature. In the almost-20-minute video, at around 4:20, it can be clearly seen that the new device’s screen will feature an in-display scanner.


The new smartphone is believed to be categorised as a mid-range device. It will reportedly be powered by the Snapdragon 778G+ and will come with a 6.55-inch OLED screen. The smartphone will also come with a 120Hz refresh rate. One of the most striking features of the Nothing phone (1) is its Glyph interface which showcases a host of LED lamps on the rare panel that lights up for different notifications, calls, and alerts.

The smartphone, which is slated for a July 12 launch, is likely to be priced between Rs 31,000 and Rs 36,000. The device will be available in 8GB RAM and 128GB storage and 12GB RAM and 256GB storage configurations. The smartphone will be powered by a 4,500mAh battery with 45W wired fast charging and wireless charging.
