Nothing has recently launched the Nothing Phone (1), the company’s first-ever Android smartphone. The phone has recently been one of the most talked-about smartphones, but it is undoubtedly not without its own share of problems. Buyers who pre-ordered the device through Flipkart have begun getting them, and some of them have already begun to raise a number of problems with the device. It seems that some Nothing Phone (1) devices are facing a variety of hardware-level issues.
According to a report by 91Mobiles, a green tint problem is, well, “Nothing” new for companies launching devices with AMOLED panels. The Nothing Phone (1) has been added to the list of cellphones that have experienced the same fate in the past. As the name implies, the green tint problem results in the device’s display malfunctioning because the dark portions of the display take on a green tint.
One customer who purchased a Nothing Phone (1) through Flipkart had to return it in the hopes of receiving a unit without issues, however, the replacement handset also had the same problem. These are clear signs of poor qualty control during the manufacturing process.
In addition to the green tint issue, many people have also been having trouble with faulty selfie cameras. Notably, numerous Nothing Phone (1) devices now have a punch-hole selfie camera that appears significantly extended.
It is a little disappointing to see such problems with a brand’s pilot smartphone, even though the Nothing team has already acknowledged the problems, and the impacted buyers will probably receive a replacement unit. The company is yet to publish official instructions on what users should do if their Nothing Phone (1) is facing similar kinds of issues. We can only hope that these problems won’t be present in the upcoming batch of Nothing Phones (1) that come out of the manufacturing.
