Description:
Nothing has shown off part of the Nothing Phone (1), and teased that we'll learn more about it tomorrow.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Thanks to a recent announcement event we now know more than nothing about the Nothing Phone (1) , but theres still a whole lot that we dont know, and some of that could be revealed imminently.

Nothings official Twitter account has teased that well see (1) more thing tomorrow (April 1) words that are a reference to Apples famous one more
thing that it sometimes sticks at the end of events.

What could this one more thing be? Well, the text is accompanied by an image of the bottom edge of a phone presumably the Nothing Phone (1), but this is actually our first look at the handset, so we dont have anything to compare
it to. Announcement tomorrow. pic.twitter.com/rfVHM6bDjJ March 31, 2022 See more

So this in itself is new information, showing us a USB-C port, speaker grilles, a curved screen, and what looks to be a metal frame. Standard smartphone stuff then.

But this focus on the charging port suggests that well probably be hearing something to do with the charging of the phone. Perhaps the charging speed or the battery size. Since speaker grilles are also visible theres a chance this announcement will be something audio related, but that seems less likely.

And thats all we can say for now. We dont even know what time Nothing will be revealing this one more thing, but as soon as the announcement is made, well let you know assuming its anything remotely of note, and not just an April fools joke, which given the date we can't rule out. Analysis: what we know so far

Nothing is dragging out the unveiling of its first smartphone, so all we really know so far is that it will have a partially-transparent back, a Snapdragon chipset, and software dubbed NothingOS, which will run on top of Android.

The full unveiling is likely still months away, but its looking like we could get a drip-feed of information between now and then, much like we often get from OnePlus which is no coincidence, since the founder of Nothing (Carl
Pei) also co-founded OnePlus.

It seems almost fitting then that this new information is arriving just a day after the global launch of the OnePlus 10 Pro , but it remains to be seen whether this mystery phone will tempt away OnePlus fans. Could this be one of the best smartphones ?
