The biggest news this week was the announcement of the Nothing (1) phone. But it was more of a confirmation as we practically had a full picture of the phone.

The phone features a recycled aluminum frame, a 6.55-inch 1080×2400 120Hz OLED touchscreen with 1,200 nit peak brightness, 240Hz touch sample rate, Gorilla Glass 5 at the top, and symmetrical bezels on all four the sides. The Snapdragon 778G + chipset is at the helm and a dual rear camera system comprising a Sony IMX766 1 / 1.56 “50MP f / 1.88 main unit with OIS and a Samsung JN1 1 / 2.76” 50MP f / 2.2 ultrawide camera with a 114-degree field of view. On the other side, embedded in the hole inside the display, is a 16MP Sony IMX471 selfie shooter.

The Nothing (1) phone will be priced at € 469 / £ 399 / INR 32,999 with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, € 499 / £ 449 / INR 35,999 with 8 / 256GB and € 549 / £ 499 / INR 38.999 with 12/256 GB. This latest version will come later than the other two. In addition to the UK, the Nothing (1) phone will be offered in Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, India, Israel, Italy, Macau, Malaysia, Netherlands, Norway, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Singapore, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand and the United Arab Emirates.

HMD took us back in time with the unveiling of the Nokia 8210 4G, a throwback to the Nokia 8210 from 1999, as well as the Nokia 2660 Flip and the Nokia 5710 XpressAudio, a candybar phone with integrated wireless earbuds.

Nokia 5710 XpressAudio is the most exciting offering of the bunch thanks to its integrated wireless earphones. The back of the phone features a sliding mechanism that houses the gems and charges them when not in use. You can use the gems to listen to music stored on the device (up to 32GB of memory via the microSD slot) or FM Radio and you can also connect them to any other device such as smartphone or tablet. The phone also has a headphone jack if you prefer that route.

Nokia 8210 4G takes the design from the classic model launched in 1999 but updates the hardware on all fronts. There’s a 2.8 QVGA color display, LTE connectivity, and support for up to 32GB of storage via a microSD card. The phone is made of polycarbonate and is available in sand, blue and red colors. There is a 1,450mAh removable battery with capacity for up to 6 hours of talk time on 4G and up to 19 days of standby time. Other extras include an FM radio receiver that works with both wired and wireless earbuds, a built-in MP3 player, and fan-favorite Snake game.

Nokia 2660 Flip is the third new entry and carries similar specs to the other two new Nokia phones but in a clamshell shape. It has a 2.8 QVGA main screen, a 1.77-inch secondary panel, a VGA camera, and a 1,450mAh battery with up to 20 days standby capacity.

All three phones will hit the UK top later this month. The Nokia 8210 4G and Nokia 2660 Flip will retail for £ 64.99 (€ 59) while the Nokia 5710 XpressAudio will go for £ 74.99 (€ 69).

HMD also unveiled the Nokia T10, an 8-inch (1280x800px) tablet with optional LTE, 5,250mAh battery and a price tag of € 159 ($ 159).

A dummy of the iPhone 14 Pro Max has emerged, showing what the new pill-shaped notch will look like. Well, like a pill-shaped notch. It allows Apple to put Face ID in a design familiar to Android users since Nokia was still using Windows Phone.
