When is the Nothing Phone (1) Release Date?
The company first confirmed that it was working on a smartphone at its March 23 event, but it was only at that time that it confirmed that the phone would launch in the summer. Since then, it’s become more specific, promising to launch the phone at an event on July 12 at 4PM GMT (i.e. 8AM PT, 11AM ET, 5PM CET, 8:30PM ET). India Standard).
Despite this, you will technically be able to purchase the phone before launch. Not yet partnered with auction site StockX to launch the first 100 units – all engraved and serialized – in a 48-hour auction starting June 21 at 2 PM GMT (6 AM PT, 9 AM ET, 3 PM CET, 6:30 PM IST). Each of the top 100 bidders will receive a phone engraved with a number corresponding to their bid value – so the only way to get #1 is by placing the highest number of bids, although of course you’ll have to bid without knowing the phone’s full specifications – or its retail price.
