Nothing Phone 1

Decent specs for that entry price point. Feel like it's aimed at the midrange market where the likes of Pocophone have found a niche. Power to the makers if at all it's a good phone. If they're able to get the Indian Market, then they'll have made some serious inroads.

With that said, Samsung sihami any time soon though I'm excited to see what my all time favourite brand, hTc is up to with the Desire 22 Pro.

Design looks good but it could have looked gooder without those childish strobe lights at the back. The specs aren't special because other midrange peers also have such specs and price.

I would not buy it, so I can't recommend it to anyone.

First, it reminds me of some 3 fallen brands - the blackberry, the Essential pH 1 and the Razer phone. I don't know what makes me think this company will have a future similar to those mentioned brands. Ajabu ni kuwa LG no longer makes phones but I don't regard it the same way I regard those brands - extinct volcanoes. I will wait to see how many models this brand will produce in the future.

Second, the 399 dollar will definitely not be the actual price. I think it will be ranging between 450 and 500. Now, I will NEVER spend that much on a mid range smartphone knowing all too well that I can get a flagship with that kind of money, hata ikiwa it's 2 or 3 years old. The Galaxy Note 10 Plus is still available, brand new on Amazon, at 500 dollars. Also does the iPhone Xr Pro Max. The IPhone Xs Max is even cheaper and it is arguably one of the most powerful handsets available out there.

Where does ios stand in your books?
I went back to apple after 10 years and can't complain. My main reason was security and camera, though Samsung has good specs, I don't like them from my last one S5 to be precise.

Only ever used one. It was a very good phone.

Since I travel quite frequently, not having dual sim can be limiting but the biggest drawback is the lack of synchronisation with non-Apple devices. If one is using a Macbook for their daily tasks, then an iPhone makes great sense..
Dual sim iPhones are now readily available. You can even get one that's dual and esim allowing you to use more than 3 sim cards. Si ndio?

I too had those doubts but in reality , these days I don’t see the sync being an issue anymore . Music is the only thing but again there are different ways of consuming music these days.
Dual sim is a valid issue though but I’m yet to solve that by registering an esim kinda lazy to get it done .
