Why It Matters
Nothing is launching its new entry-level smartphone, the Phone 4b, on July 7. The device will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chipset and will have 8GB of RAM.
Nothing has revealed that it's launching a new entry-level device, the Phone 4b, on July 7 at 6AM Eastern time.
On X, the company has been teasing the upcoming phone with illustrations and animations.
Based on what it has shown so far, the Phone 4b will look pretty much like the Phone 4a that was released earlier this year. The Nothing glyph bar will still be at the margin of the camera module, except the 4b seems to only have five panels of light instead of seven.
The Nothing glyph bar is a vertical rear-panel lighting interface, which you can assign specific lighting patterns to for different kinds of notifications.
The Phone 4b has also appeared on the benchmarking website Geekbench, which reveals that the device will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chipset and will have 8GB of RAM.
Nothing's Phone 4b will be the company's first entry in its "b" line of smartphones.
Company co-founder Akis Evangelidis explained on X that the B series "builds on the success of the A series by expanding into a new segment, while maintaining a clear product hierarchy." The A series remains as the company's "most premium line" below its flagship devices that don't have a letter designation, with the B series below it.
