Nothing is finely orchestrating the dripping of details about the upcoming Phone 1. After all, it has Carl Pei at the helm of things. The ex-OnePlus co-founder’s new company is set to unveil the Nothing Phone (1) on July 12. We also know the phone will be sold on Flipkart, an Indian-born eCommerce company. Now the company has also revealed that the handset will be manufactured in the state of Tamil Nadu in India. So, it seems to be going all out to appease Indians.

"Nothing phone (1) is the real start of our journey and we cannot think of a better way to establish ourselves in India, which is a key market for us," Mr. Sharma added.
The company has also announced over 270 authorized service centers in more than 250 cities along with across-the-year customer support through the Nothing India channels.
As for the phone itself, it has been spotted in the wild in what seems a promo video from Nothing. The alleged live images of Phone (1) has been shared by Piyush Bhaskar through Slashleaks.

The Phone (1) will be available on Flipkart featuring a Qualcomm Snapdragon SoC, Android-based Nothing OS, wireless charging support, and a transparent chassis with a silver-colored metallic frame.
The Google-backed company wants the Phone (1) to be “the most compelling alternative to Apple.”
