Finally, an Android phone that looks good. But does it also work good?
Nothing Phone 1: Design and screen
As for its looks, the iPhone 4 is a classic for a reason. The slab sides are broken only by a USB-C port, a single speaker grille, and large buttons that don’t protrude too much. The transparent back features two camera lenses, and the front-facing camera is a hole-punch at the top left. The fingerprint scanner is under the screen, while holes for a mic and the SIM tray release are barely noticeable at the top and bottom.
The screen is notable for its support of HDR10+, and for the benefits that come with its OLED technology. It’s bright and colourful, though a great many of its virtues are likely to be lost when using it in a bright environment. The display appears to be right on top of the phone, with no raised area around it, and the viewing angle is excellent. If you’re in the habit of watching HDR content from Netflix at an oblique angle while in a brightly lit room, it won’t let you down.
Video goes all the way up to 4K 30FPS, though if you want to record in HDR you’ll have to make do with 1080p. All the standard Android camera modes are present, with computational portrait mode blurring the background, macro mode allowing close-focusing, plus panoramas, bursts, slow-mo video and night mode.
