The missing piece of the puzzle is finally here. Most leaks and speculation claimed the Nothing Phone (1) would be powered by the new Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 SoC. However, a new entry on Geekbench 5 and the source code on the official website of Nothing has confirmed that the Nothing Phone (1) is not powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1. Instead, the smartphone is powered by the Snapdragon 778G+ SoC. We already have devices like the Moto Edge 30, powered by the Snapdragon 778G Plus SoC, which is also under Rs. 30,000. Therefore, the Nothing Phone (1) is expected to cost around Rs. 30,000 in India if the company wants to compete with its contemporaries.
Nothing Phone (1) Geekbench 5 Achievements
According to the Geekbench 5 listing, the Nothing Phone (1) is powered by the Snapdragon 778G Plus SoC with 8 GB of RAM, and the Phone runs on the latest Android 12 operating system. Nothing Phone (1) posted a single-core CPU score of 797 and a multi-core CPU score of 2803. Comparing these scores with the Moto Edge 30, Motorola’s offering has a better single-core score, while the Nothing Phone (1) offers a better multi-core score. Nevertheless, both smartphones are expected to perform similarly under normal day-to-day usage scenarios.
Nothing phone (1) has any leverage.
According to official sources, Nothing Phone (1) impacts the competition, especially regarding design and build quality. The Nothing Phone (1) does have a premium finish with a metal frame and a glass back panel. Likewise, the smartphone also appears to support wireless and reverse wireless charging. There is no information on whether the Nothing Phone (1) will have any intrusion protection. Judging by the design and target market, the company is expected to offer IP certification to protect the device from dust and water. Finally, the Phone has LED strips that can be customized for notification LEDs. Since it has now been confirmed that the Nothing Phone (1) will come with Snapdragon 778G Plus SoC, it is almost guaranteed that the phone’s price will likely be between Rs. 30,000 to Rs. 40,000. Considering this is the company’s first smartphone, the brand will expect to price the device very aggressively, at least in India.
