Nothing is making rattles online with its first-ever Android phone that will be marking its debut in India and the global markets. The London-based brand has scheduled the launch event for the Nothing Phone (1) on July 12. The company has been teasing the design and features consistently now via its official social media handles. Just a few days ago, the Nothing Phone (1)’s official teaser poster gave us a sneak peek into the design. There’s already a lot of hype about the transparent design that the Nothing Phone (1) will offer. But the newest teaser has left a little to imagine how the Nothing Phone (1) will look like in real life.

Nothing Phone (1) Complete Official Look Revealed

Nothing via a new promo video has showcased the entire design language of the Nothing Phone (1). There have been several rumors and leaks that hinted at a transparent back design which later was confirmed by the brand itself. The latest Nothing Phone (1) teaser video has showcased the entire design; specifically, the transparent back panel which is creating all the hype in the Android mobile market.

The circuitry inside the handset is clearly visible at the back which gives this handset a distinctive appeal amongst other available premium smartphones in the market today. Upon a closer look, you can also see the wireless charging coil along with some additional circuitry or metal plates intact.

Besides, it also appears that the brand has added a glowing LED strip starting from the wireless charging coil and going down till the bottom. We are currently unaware of its functionalities and are waiting to see its performance in real-life scenarios. The Nothing Phone (1)’s back panel will also mount the camera module on the upper left corner. The handset is seen with a dual-lens setup that is stacked vertically with the AI branding.

In addition to the transparent back design, Nothing has also revealed a flat edge design. The Nothing Phone (1) will be wrapped with a metallic frame painted in silver. There are rumors that Nothing is likely using recycled aluminum material to manufacture the Nothing Phone (1).

This means we can expect a durable Android phone despite a transparent back design. Thanks to the teaser poster, we also know the positioning of the keys and ports. The volume keys on the Nothing Phone (1) is placed on the left panel, while the right spine can be seen housing the power key. The bottom panel will have a USB Type-C port.
