“Introducing CMF Phone 1. Wonderful by design. Leveraging @nothing’s innovation and meticulous attention to design, it serves as a wonderful entry point to our entire product ecosystem. As others overlook this category, we’re giving it our full attention. Coming soon,” Nothing posted on X, formerly Twitter.
CMF, a sub-brand of Nothing, is focused on providing budget-friendly products. Notably, until now, it has only released accessories, including a smartwatch, charger, and TWS earbuds.
A previous teaser from Nothing showed a unique screw on the back of the CMF Phone 1, said to be integral to a feature called “Nothing Lock.” This mechanism is said to enables users to connect exclusive accessories, including support brackets and lanyards, to a specialised connector on the device. Several leaks indicate that the device will be budget friendly.
