CMF Phone 1 By Nothing Review :-

Nothing mobiles always comes with a unique design and again Nothing mobiles proves its uniqueness of design in CMF. Previous Nothing mobiles have unique lights and now the CMF mobile have changeable back cases with different colors. You can change the back cover on your own by removing screws with the help of the screwdriver they provided. The cases are coming with three different colors Black, Blue, Light Green, Orange.

They are providing more hardware customizations also like Card case, Mobile Holder, Lanyard. You can buy these accessories online and the pricing is Mobile Holder – ₹799 and Cases – ₹1,499 and Lanyard – ₹799. The mobile pricing is also good and it comes with the 6GB Ram & 128GB is ₹15,999 and 8GB & 128GB is ₹17,999.

You can buy from Here.

Let’s start with the performance

Performance:-

The processor used in this mobile is Mediatek Dimensity 7300 it is a successor of Mediatek Dimensity 7050. It is a 8 octa core 2.5 GHz & 4 NM build processor. The performance of this processor is equal to Snapdragon 782g and the ANTUTU score of this mobile is 673000. It is a pretty decent processor in that price range you can go for this mobile. The main benefit of using a 4 NM processor is that it consumes less battery as compared to 6 NM. By using this mobile you can play mid range graphic games. For heavy gaming I didn’t recommend this mobile because this processor is only capable of mid range graphics. In BGMI it supports smooth and extreme 60fps but I noticed some frame drops in between the game. You want to buy it for heavy gaming, this is not the right choice. Better you go for a better processor.

Display:-

The CMF has a 6.67 Super Amoled Full HD+ display with 120Hz adaptive refresh rate. It has a 2000 nits peak brightness so you don’t get any issues with visibility on Day light. The screen resolution is 2400 x 1080 pixels and the display quality at that price is awesome. The display can re-produce over 16 million colors over the deepest black so the viewing quality is good. You can watch Netflix and Amazon Prime in Full HD without any issues. You can really experience the amazing display without any doubt.

Cameras:-

In this smartphone they are offering a dual camera in back and single camera in the front. In back, 50 MP with IMX882 sensor and aperture of f/1.79 and 2 MP wide angle camera. By using a back camera you can record 4k at 30 fps video. With a back camera you can get better pictures in the daylight but in the low light the camera has an average performance. In front they used a 16 MP front facing camera. By using the front camera you can record up to 1080p at 60 fps. In day light the front facing camera performance is decent performance but in the low light the camera performance is very low but in that price range it is good.

Battery:-

In CMF they used 5000 MAH battery and supported 33 w fast charging. They said that the battery will charge within 1 hour but the reality is the battery will charge under 1 hour and 30 minutes. By the capacity of the battery the mobile can run until the evening. If you are a heavy user in the evening you have to charge the mobile. The smartphone can run up to 6 hours of battery life so you don’t have to worry about the battery life.

Design & Build Quality:-

The design of this mobile is really unique and simple. You can just switch your back case if you don’t like the color of the back cover. Because of that back cover the mobile weight has increased to 202 grams. But the build quality is just average  because they are offering artificial leather in back covers. The in-hand feel is good because of artificial leather but build quality performance is average.

General:-

It consists of two nano slim slots and  the signal reception is good. You can get a clean nothing UI in this mobile. Nothing says they can give 2 years of android updates and 3 years of security updates. In the box they are providing type-c to type-c cable and there is no charger in the box. You have to buy a charger separately. That is a drawback of this mobile because at that price every one is providing a charger in the box. It can support wifi 6

Advantages & Drawbacks:-

Pro’s:-

  • The processor
  • Unique design
  • Cameras

Con’s:-

  • Build Quality
  • Charger

Overall Review:-

In my opinion, those who are looking for a unique design and good camera and all rounder processor this mobile is for them. Those who are looking for a gaming mobile this isn’t the right choice for them. Who are looking for gamming mobile better those look for another mobile but at that price it is killing one.
