Over the last couple of weeks, we have reported on various rumors regarding the upcoming Nothing Phone (1). This is the company’s first ever smartphone, and recently it was even spotted in a BTS (Behind the Scene) video.

The highly anticipated Phone (1) was spotted in the video, in the hands of the brand’s founder Carl Pei. The senior executive has been behind the brand’s strategy for creating hype behind all of its products and the new video upload on YouTube was also a part of this plan. The video was titled “Preparing phone (1) ft. Carl Pei” and was shared on the company’s official YouTube channel.

While the video does not directly show off the smartphone, it does offer a glimpse at the handset ahead of its official announcement right at the end of the video. Looking at the image above, we can see that the Nothing Phone (1) has a white color tone on the back underneath its transparent rear panel. The smartphone’s vertically stacked dual camera setup on the rear is also clearly visible, housed in the top left corner.

Nothing might have dropped additional hints in the video regarding the device or some other easter eggs. Although, there weren’t many details to go on. Talking about its rumored specs, the smartphone is expected to sport a 6.55 inch FHD+ 90Hz OLED display. Under the hood, it will be equipped with a Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 SoC and will boot on Android 12 OS based Nothing OS.

Samsung launched the Galaxy S20 series earlier this year. The company is known for releasing new colors of its devices after a certain period of time. This is a long-used strategy to boost sales when the curve flattens. This year, the electronics giant has partnered with BTS, a K-Pop band to launch a limited edition Galaxy S20 Plus and Galaxy Buds Plus TWS.

The South Korean maker is not releasing something crazy as they did with superhero-themed Galaxy S series phone back in the day. Aso, it does not look anything like the recently announced heavily themed Oppo Ace 2 EVA and iQOO 3 5G Transformers. 

Instead, the company is taking a safe route by simply coating the Galaxy S20 Plus with BTS’ signature purple color. On the other hand, the Galaxy Buds Plus gets an extra tiny BTS’ ‘I Purple You’ logo on the buds as well as the charging case.

Apart from the above-mentioned subtle changes, the handset and the TWS remains the same except maybe it could arrive with special BTS theme out of the box.
