Nothing Phone (4b)
Key specs
Critic consensus
“It’s not the no-brainer bargain of Nothing’s CMF sub-brand cheap phones but the Phone (4b) has a lot going for it. If it fits your budget, it’s worth going for if you crave stand-out design in a sea of meh – with the design extending to software. Not only does the phone look great, the Glyph lights at the back are genuinely useful.”
“The Nothing Phone (4b) is yet another decent value-oriented offering from the phone maker. Battery life is the true standout, lasting over 17 hours in our tests. Nothing’s performance, build quality and software have become something that can be relied upon. The camera and Glyph implementation have become somewhat ordinary, however.”
“The Nothing Phone (4b) is a fantastic option for anyone who wants a phone that looks like nothing else on the market. It delivers a great screen and amazing battery life for a very fair price. The software is thoughtful, and the AI features provide some genuine utility for organizing your daily tasks. It really proves that you do not need to spend a fortune to get a device that is fun and functional.”
“If you're looking for an affordable Android phone without any of the luxury extra features for the sake of saving cash, then Nothing's Phone (4b) delivers a strong case. It's akin to a Phone (4a) minus the zoom camera, with a slightly larger battery capacity and hardware that's a little less powerful – yet still perfectly capable.”
