Reviews

8.1/10 by Shubham Raheja | 11 Jul 2024

The CMF Phone 1 feels unique yet familiar, akin to what the Nokia Lumia 525 was for college students. It's aimed at a similar market, offering a hipster vibe, smooth performance, and solid basics. Despite lacking an ultrawide camera, stereo speakers, and the Glyph interface, its modularity is a standout feature. A competition to encourage third-party accessory innovation could boost its appeal. Priced at Rs 15,999, it's positioned to undercut the POCO X6 Pro and OnePlus Nord CE 4 Lite, differentiating it from Nothing's main series. If you value smooth software and a unique design, check it out.
