CMF Phone 1 8+128GB - Unlocked smartphone with 50 MP Sony rear camera with Ultra XDR, 6,67" Super AMOLED display and Nothing OS 2.6 - Black

I'm blown away by this phone and what it costs. I can't think of another phone on the market that costs the current £169 that has 8GB RAM, expandable storage, 120hz Amoled and a 5000MaH battery. This runs the full version of Nothing OS which is a minimalist styled version of Android. It comes with no bloatware to speak of (another first at this price point). The phone runs really quickly, with no noticeable lag. I've had phones cost double this that didn't run as smoothly! The design is a bit like marmite, you'll either love it or hate it. Personally I love it, loads of smartphones look identical these days so I'm glad for something a bit different. However if it's not to your taste just put a case on and enjoy the rest of what the phone has to offer. The 3 notable things this device doesn't have are optical image stabilization, wireless charging and NFC. NFC is the big one that almost stopped me from buying this device, in the UK contactless payments are the norm and it seems a bit of a mistake to have not included this. I would've happily paid another £20 for this device if it had this functionality. Nothing do sell a card holder case which could negate the issue. For me personally I'll just pull out my wallet and use my card, the tradeoff is one I'm willing to accept. Battery life is phenomenal, I actually have 2 of these devices (one for work, and personal). The work one generally just gets used for 2fa the occasional phone call and message, on a full charge it will sit there turned on 24/7 and lasts over a week! The standby drain or lack of is amazing. It will generally only lose 1% overnight. My personal one which I use quite a bit more will easily last 2 days. At the end of the 2nd day I'm generally at about 40-50%. Nothing seem to be committed to regular updates too, in my ownership I've gained access to loads of new apps and functionality. This is a breath of fresh air compared to some other manufacturers. Aside from lacking OIS the camera is surprisingly good (Note I say Camera, singular. The 2nd camera is actually just a depth sensor) and can produce good results in a wide range of environments. It has a form of electronic stabilization that can be turned in the settings and works by slightly cropping the image to keep it steady. If you're into customization this phone is also more allowing of that than other devices. The back cover can be removed easily with the screws and be replaced with something else. The community seems to be growing around this device, I've even seen a 3d printable nerf gun case for this phone! Unless one of the 3 features I've mentioned that are missing are a deal breaker to you, you could certainly do a lot worse than buying one of these.

Love this phone, I'm a Motorola phone guy, but tried this because of the price and I love it, it's sturdy, dropped it a few times and never been an issue, software and UI is good, camera isn't the best compared to a lot of other phones but for the price it's brilliant, for every day use it will take great pictures, battery life is great, sound is great, I would highly recommend it

The CMF phone 1 really is brilliant. I had an iPhone 12 and apple watch previously but simply couldn't afford to upgrade it. I did some research and checked the reviews before what I thought was taking a risk and got this phone, but I am so glad I did because it is fast, responsive and does everything I want from a phone. The screen is great, battery is brilliant and the OS just works without any issues. I love the engineer look and the fact you can change the back etc. It even works flawlessly with my hearing aids making my life so much easier. The only downside I can see for other people would be there is no NFC but I have never used that anyway. I really recommend this phone to anyone.

Absolute bargain for the price. Profomance is fast and stable and screen is bright and 120hz. Sound is clear and loud but only comes from bottom speaker but like I said before it's a bargain. Only down side is no NFC for wireless payments, hopefully this will be in the next version. It's fantastic to find a phone you can change the actual phones cover and also attach accessories the phone it self. The camera is very good quality. The whole nothing phone theme can be changed from the minimum look to stock android if you don't like the black and white contrast minimum look, but customization of the home screen and folders is a great improvement on top of the android OS. Runs the current Android 14 OS and will have the minimum of 2 years of updates as standard for android phones, Nothings latest 3.0 OS beta for this phone is released 1st December 2024.

For the price Amazon have this organogenesis CMF 1 at the moment (£100 ) this is an absolute bargain. Great design and fluid apps - up to date software - android 16 a great all day plus battery life - super camera - check the flower close-up - I don’t think there’s anything out there that’s as high quality and such good value + no chinese bloatware. Everything runs smoothly and definitely as good as a phone costing twice as much. Really impressed.

Bought over 4 months ago and so far, so good. In my opinion, best value for money phone currently on the market. Featuring the 8 core MediaTek Dimensity 7300 and 8GB RAM+8GB RAM booster. The operating system, powered by Android 15, is very customisable, smooth and well optimised for the hardware. Decent 50MP rear camera factoring in the price. Stunning 6.67" 120Hz AMOLED display going up to 2000 nits of brightness (the same as the iPhone 16). It also has an enormous 5000mAH battery which lasts me almost 2 days on a single charge. One downside that I have found is not having NFC, meaning you can't use contactless payment. For £169 (what I bought it for) it is a steal.

The internal components used are of much higher than usual quality from this UK-made phone. The camera is excellent. The sound and music output is the highest quality I have ever heard from a portable device, but you will need a USB C DAC to connect to standard jack headphones (only a few quid from Amazon - eg. Nimaso). Battery life is superb with up to 3 full days of normal use on one charge (I don't play games with adverts, but Wordfeud and Spades Royale were part of my tests). Standard latest Android and virtually no bloatware make this easy and intuitive to operate and configure. The screen is bright and clear, and colours are vibrant. Migration from my old phone was painless and easy, using the USB C to USB C cable supplied. It comes with a screen protector fitted but no free case. For £209, this is great VFM.

I bought this phone for my dad and overall I'd say it was a great phone, The screen is Large has a high response rate and is really bright with good colors. The phone has enough power from the processor. The tasks are easy and scrolling is smooth, it has enough RAM and storage that it will last and it has a MicroSD card slot in case you need more storage. The general build is decent although plastic, but I bought a case for it so you don't really realize. It charges quickly although it has no wireless charging and no NFC which is the biggest downside of the phone, apart from that, I would highly recommend if you're looking for a phone on a budget.

Top telefoon

Wg. mnie dobry telefon ze średniej półki, dobrze współpracuje z nawigacją samochodową. Możliwość ustawienia widoku „czystego” androida. Posiada możliwość rozszerzenia pamięci o kartę micro sd. Ekran może trochę za bardzo jaskrawy ale też dobrze widać treść przy dużym oświetleniu. Nie posiada możliwości płatności telefonem co może być wadą dla tych którzy to robią.

Only problematic we had with it was the NFC part. Otherwise it's a good working phone for the money .and it feels way above Samsung a15 in performance

Nice phone overall. Light body, nice color and I love the useless little dial at the bottom. I fidget with it all the time. The phone feels like a plastic version of a really nice phone. It is fast enough for sure, I have only used it on WiFi, no cellular, but it does take pretty acceptable photos and video. The UI feels normal. I use an iPhone daily, 17 pro max, and if I were to switch to an android this would be it. I am not and I absolutely would never switch but I really like this nothing phone(1). I bought it for research and education purposes and was not planning on leaving a review or really using the phone before I wiped it. But it’s nice af bro for real. Buy one wipe it and install Linux cause why not.

Prosty i funkcjonalny.
